Sundown SD3 in a supercrew 09-14?
What box is anybody running that fits a Sundown SD3 in a 09-14 supercrew? I want to run one 10 sealed but not finding anybody posting what they are using that'll fit. I'd prefer I nice prefab than building one at this point. Need sealed as this version is intended for sealed application over ported.

Why not? It's only 4.5" deep so I wouldn't think that it's that difficult. I haven't checked on boxes like the fox box, but I think they give around 5-6", right? Also, it's flat-backed, no vented pole piece, so it's designed for tight squeezes in the box as well. Magnet diameter could be an issue, but it's not a monster. I've been wrong before, especially with this little research.

I'm looking into this as well, talk to CSCstang at caraudio.com/forums he's done a ton of boxes for our trucks, behind/under the seat and has even done sundowns for a guy with our truck. Short answer YES. Read this thread http://www.caraudio.com/forums/sundo...sd-3-10-a.html

Still have a lot of fine tuning to do... I went with slam/punch over heavey vibration. at first i was underwhelmed.. then i adjusted my crossover to 63 and 80 Hz and had a nice smile on my face. it allowed me to feel the sub at lower volume. because i listen to classic rock and new country you get what you get. good bass notes and great kick drums. that said i put in some Eminem and f#cking wow. these things thump and pound and punch you in the chest
. again without that distorted vibration that you hear coming down the street(hate that). i wanted good clean bass and i feel that's what i got. the bass adjust **** installed upfront works great. as i fine tune i'll have more to say.

Nice!!!
I've currently got two JL Audio 10W3s (the first gen... yeah, they're that old... still sound great, though... I've had them about 11 years now, and even then I bought them used) that I love, but I'm thinking this shallow mount Sundowns will give me more of what I love and make installation easier, too. The JLs are vented in the back, I believe, so it will be difficult to make them work under my seat in the back. With these, I won't have that issue and will probably get a slightly better sub to boot.
Keep us updated! Let us know how it goes as you tune.
Speaking of such, how are you doing your tuning? With what equipment?

Still researching. don't think i'm gonna invest in any equipment.. my plan as of now is to adjust my gains using a 1-kHz sine wave tone and my radio shack analog meter. (just to balance fronts and backs)
great article http://knowledge.sonicelectronix.com...nd-bass-boost/
