Truck Install

New member Username: SandviperKilleen, Texas USA Post Number: 1 Registered: Jun-05 | I want to put some bass in my truck and am a big JL fan, I am thinking about a pair of 10w7's powered by a pair of JL 1000 watt mono's but have been told they wont fit. My truck is a 2004 F150 King Ranch supercrew. Money isn't much of an issue but I would like to keep it below 2k if possible. Also, I am running a Pioneer Premier DEH-P8MP head unit with Infinity Reference 9603i 6x9's in all 4 doors. Anyone have any suggestions? |

I can't position it like that because I've got seat all the way across but maybe if I placed the box on the floor between and just behind the front seats with the sub firing down? Would it mess it up if I put a cover over the sub to protect it? |

You could just coppy the pickture and try building it you'reself, or take the picture to a shop and have them build one like it. Don't know if I got ripped off, but that box cost around $175 for them to build it! |
