where are u guys putting ur subs at?
speaker boxes?
under the seat?
did u guys have to make ur own box so that it can fit under the seat?
pics would be cool, thanks!

still working on it, but I have two boxes behind the seat each has a 10" I can take a shot or two but it ain't too pretty right now, oh and yes I have relocated the gas tank.....

[drewfever1020]

oh i see!
well i dont want to relocate my gas tank!
i just want to fit it under the seat!

[rogergodding]

that's gonna take a very flat box, but I bet it has been done

thats where mine is its under the passenger side barely fits but fits its a ten inch kicker shallow mount. the sub is 150 dollars on crutchfield. I made the box myself just gotta get it as shallow as possible i had to unbolt my passenger side to get it under there because of that stupid lip under the front of the seat but it works good. Makes a bunch of people say they are about to crap their pants but its all good =)

i got a 12" sub in a box i picked up from my friend... i got it sitting on my transmission hump in my truck... it looks kinda goofy but hey nobody in my town has ever heard a 36 year old truck with a sub in it that pounds!! i dont care much about it so i just drive and rock out to the music just like any other 17 year old would do... parents dont like it too much since its too loud haha

[drewdude92]

haha i used to do the same exact thing with mine it was just ina box on the middle hump but it was hard for my women to get over it so i just took it out....

I bought mine with 2 6x9's in a box in the middle transmission hump hooked up

actually kinda looks like it fits because my truck has buckets, replaced the Jensen 6x9's with Pioneer ones today

Eventually after I get some paint and body work done on this truck, I'll work on doing the sound properly

if you remove the gas tank and use fiberglass you can salvage about 7 cubic feet behind the seat but with a MAX sub depth of about 8 inches and that is tight.

i personally am going with 4 10s if i dont cut my cab, i want to go 4 ma audio 18's for the shock factor..

as for mounting speakers/amps under the seat(s) with gas tank in place. i am not comfortable with considering i have seen many speakers and amps light fires givin the deficit of gasoline. i think a small centerconsole with a 10 up front will be sufficient for most.

just installed 2 6x9's between buckets in my 72, seats are from a 98 chevy. check out my other post for a description. i can send you pix if you want. i think the configuration would work for an 8" woofer or two, with some mods. Actually, i'm sure it would work. I didn't go w/subs/amp combo yet, because a) i'm on a budget b)it's just a truck i drive about once a week c) the two 5.5's in the doors wouldn't put out enough highs to overcome the bass, in my opinion. my 99 has 2 10's, my 66 has 4 10's, so i know you need some good highs when you rock! By the way, if i do relocate the tank, it will get a box w/2 10's as well. good luck, keep us posted

What year is the truck? I built a center console lookin thing with a bench and it works pretty good (in an 87), lower years should be even simpler.

^That actually looks really good. A+

My four 10" subs are sitting behind my seat. Not much place else to put them really...

My amps are hiding under the seat. They don't really get that hot, and I abuse them, thoroughly...

[frostie_122]

if you ar looking to keep the gas tank and not cut holes you dont have a lot of options.
you could do buckets and a center concole with a sub in it and speakers in the kick pannels. that would be ideal.

[killacheyenne]

drewdude92 can you post a picture of your kicker 10 and its box. im thinking about doing that same thing.
