Hey... you mean a sub box like this? Made for 12" sub and amp.


I can pull it out of my car and measure it for you. I have everything unwired in my car because I am trying to sell the entire setup...capacitor mount at all. I will work on getting measurements for you over my weekend (Sunday and Monday) if I remember to do it.

Hope those pictures and measurements help. I used 3/4" MDF wood for the box. Box portion is stapled, glued, and caulked tight for an air tight enclosed box. Also with dimensions of the box you end up with a 1.11 cubic feet enclosed box. You can make the length bigger or smaller to change the cubic feet if you need to. I would not change the width or height dimensions since they barely fit into the deep spot of the trunk already.

Thanks man. I have always loved your car. I believe I asked you about the triple gauge pillar before and just saw your post showing off the roll bar. I actually am going to try to sell my whole sub setup I believe because I never use it....haven't turned my radio on in the car in probably 2 months and I daily drive it.

Thank you for the kind words, I appreciate it. I can agree with you there, I cant hardly hear my radio when the top is down My stereo does actually sound really good when the top is up. I replaced all the factory speakers with Boston Acoustics with a Rockford amp and sub in the trunk, and a crappy Alpine head unit.

Yes I agree there... top down really cuts down the sub volume but I could still feel the sub hitting in my car as for you though you got that big v8 to hear when your top is down. Top up it was much louder and gave the "massage" chair feel. LOL. Surprised my car has no rattles yet from the setup. As of now though it is unwired and just sitting in the trunk till I find a buyer or till I swap it into my grand cherokee.
