In most boxes I wouldn't be able to do that, but the box I had, there's a ring inside the hole the sub screws into. So I could set the box on it's face with the sub in it, and the sub would just barely touch ground.

But ignoring that part, due to the shape of the floor, the bottom of the of face of the box touches the floor, and the top part does, so the sub has room to move and never touch the floor

Got a little more done on my truck today. Got the fuel tank fill tube on. Was a little bit of a hack job but it turned out alright. I also put in some lights. Not sure how I like the lights yet. Here are a few pictures.

Sorry to hear that. Ice is no fun. Is the drivetrain salvageable or did it break mounts.
