making ur own
The originator of this thread gives the dimensions for the box he put in his truck. You might be able to contact the guy and find out what he thinks about the box he made.

Here, use this and do it yourself or buy one already made. I posted this in another thread but here I wioll post it again.
Follow this and then you'll know exactly how large to make it based off of the speakers requirements....
If you want to know a little secret try this as this can apply for any speaker and box combo.
Find out what the speakers specs are for a given box. Measure it out.
Calculating is merely a matter of measuring the dimensions in inches, and by using the following formula:
Box volume = (height) x (depth) x (width) divided by 1728. This will give you the volume of the box in cubic feet.
If two facing sides are uneven length, add them together, and divide by 2 to take the average.Using this number will give you the volume without the necessity of calculatingthe box sections, and adding the sections together.
Hope this helps. Now go out into the world and find the speaker whch is close to those specs and you'll sound good....

Yeah, just figure up the volume of the biggest box you can make, then look at some recommended box volumes of some subs youve been lookin at and see what works, or if its less you can take some out. Watch mounting depth to since its in a reg cab.
