Well, as most of you know by now, regular cabs are a pain in the...to get a decet system in them without salvaging you legroom..I've heard that the MTX Thunderforms are really nice boxes, but I'm NOT willing to pay the $300 for one of them..Can anyone maybe help me out and give me the measurements of the Thunderform, so I can just build one myself :)? Or maybe post pics and specs of you regular cab setup to help me out..?

why not just take some measurements of the maximum available space. im assuming its going to be a wedge box. then take .5" from the top and bottom depth for clearance. there are 8s and a few 10s that will fit. i was planning on putting an 8 but i took some wrong measurement before ordering my amp. so now my amp is right where i was going to put my sub. in order for me to put a sub i have to cut the 6x8 enclosures off of each side of the cab. then move my amp as far to the drivers side as possible. then i should be able to fit a .3cf sealed box no problem

Well you see..I already have to 10's, and they have about a 6in mounting depth..I have someone who can build me a box for it...But he wants to charge me $250...I don't need a spot for my amp because I can put that under my seat..I'm just looking for a little bit of cheaper alternitives.

why not try building the box yourself?

I thought about building my own boxes..But I'm an idiot and would probably mess up on getting the measurements knowing me ha. But yeah, I acutally just found THIS box..Granted, there isn't a picture of it, but you think if I got ahold of customer service I could get them to put one up, or maybe send me a picture of it/the specs of it?
