September 3, 201015 yr You got plenty of space for everything Whenever I see an empty vehicle I always start figuring out what you can fit in But sa12s won't take up that much space in a van and still yield tons of output
September 3, 201015 yr Author You got plenty of space for everything Whenever I see an empty vehicle I always start figuring out what you can fit in But sa12s won't take up that much space in a van and still yield tons of output Most definatly have room, how ever need room for other stuff toThis is my daily driver, I drive my mom around allot she is blind, including taking her dog to vet..I have 2 kids and my son plays baseball, and I am coach so need room for equipmentSo all 3 seats are staying in as you will see when I am done
September 3, 201015 yr WooHoo..... I'm no longer the only person with a family oriented mini-van build!!! Lookin' good so far, keep it up.
September 3, 201015 yr Author going to try to have this fully playing this weekend will keep up with photos also....Who wants more picsAnd good to hear there is more of us out there Alton, LOL
September 3, 201015 yr Yeah, figure we gotta stick together. Keep up the good work. Looks like it's coming together plenty quick. See how it sounds when you're done, but I might recommend getting some cotton batting, like the kind used for quilting, and stuffing some under the unsupported side of the 6.5's in the dash. I can see some possible problems with back wave cancellation the way Dodge designed that dash. The batting should help absorb some of that and help the midbass response.Looking forward to the finished product!!
September 3, 201015 yr Author ya for the mids up there I was thinking of something to, maybe even fiberglassing a mold for them, but then again who knows, might shoot some expanded foam up there and call it a day LOLZOk and here comes some pics of the box getting started
September 3, 201015 yr Author the Start of the boxwill work on more if it tonight, this is where I am at though.. plan on doing more pics, and what not
September 3, 201015 yr Author Thanks Its taking me longer then normal due to fact of being older from when I was a younger pup and competeting for usaci/dbdrag ect. and fact of still trying to do daily life stuff with van instead of letting it sit while work on it....
September 4, 201015 yr Author well ran into snag last night, mids and high amp decided to be noisy that a mofo tried changing up grounds and everything rca's ect.. hooked up a buddies amp real quick and no noise, I mean severe engine noise, and just noise period. UGGGG..so undid his amp, just for now, going to just hook up the mids to the radio to have sound.. get box finished up and ect ect...
September 5, 201015 yr Author well ok maybe cause I was drinking last night or something, its not the mids and high amp, its the pucking radio making all the noise. you can even hit the dash and it goes nutz.. but I did get it playing, will have pics up soonnow have to see about radio getting fixed UGGGG
September 5, 201015 yr Author Here are some more picsI am going to test enclosure before finishing it, it's still going to get 2-3 steel threaded rods thru it, along with double faced, and then being painted or what not..

September 5, 201015 yr Author extra battery for now is underneath the 3rd row seat... how ever with a change in box that might get moved nowlooks like subs up port up
September 7, 201015 yr Author Ok well I talked to the shop that fixed the radio to begin with, as it was the high voltage supply the first time, he said the grounds are messed up inside radio, Let him know I did a little research online and a few people talked about some diods could be bad, have to take it back out and take it to him tommorow, to see about getting it fixed again.. luckily it was under warranty with him...
