F150 Single cab sub box in the works.
I had a friend come by my shop with a 09 single cab and he wants a single 10 inch ported box for his JL 10w6. I was very surprised with how much room the truck has behind the seat. A few more inches and they could have made it a old school ext cab.
I'm tossing around several ideas since there is so much room to work with.
1. A single 10 inch vented box that's 16" wide and fits on the driver side of the seat belt hump. I can get 1.35 cubic feet on that side.
2. A dual 10 inch vented box that 34" wide and fits on the passenger side of the seat belt hump. I can get 1.45 cubic feet per chamber x 2 on that side.
3. A dual 12 inch vented box that is 58.5" wide, 24" tall, 12" bottom, 5.5 at the top. My friend is 6'4" and these were the max dimentions I can get with the seat set for someone his size at the way he currently drives. This box would have 2.6 cubic feet x 2 after the displacement of building around the seat belt hump on the rear wall.
4. A low profile down fire sub box that would only be 8 inches tall, hold 2-10's sealed, and have a 2 inch lip around the top turning the top of the box into a storage tray so you can still throw stuff behind the seat.
5. SPL MONSTER!!!! A 4-10" vented box, same as the dual 12 but with 3-10's on the passenger side and 1-10 on the driver side. It would be common chamber and have 5.2 cubic feet.
I forgot to look while he was here but how much room is there under the front seats for mounting amps? I was thinking of making a countersunk amp rack like I have on my Tundra crew max boxes "see pic"

#3 is exactly what i've been looking for, but for a 04-08, would this possibly work in my truck?
I'm guessing it would kind of look like this, but to your specs.
Where would the vent be?
