I am in need of some advice on fabricating an enclosure for a Nissan Frontier Crew Cab, 2002. If anyone has exp. with one of those PLEASE let me know. I have decided to use a Earth Quake SWS 10" (less than 3" m. depth). I was going to make a square baffle so I could make a frame that was about 2.25 in. at the top, and no more than 5 at bottom, the sides left open so the width is variable and formed to the interior. I have only done one f glass project, too easy. Thanks, Dustin.Fagin@comcast.net

I have done my research into this truck as to what can fit because i wanted to buy one, , basically what i ended up with is that the back should be fiberglassed and with the rear seat in stock position you can fit some ok 10" subs, but if you have the abilitys to do a little fabricateing and move the rear seat forward about 2-4" (who cares about there passengers) then you can definately get a rockin 12" sub in there with no problems.

The customer won't let me do anything fun. He doesn't even want to know what speakers I am getting, just the cost. I said a 10" woofer or two, and I deliver what I say I will. Alright, so how do I go about the fiberglass enclosure? Build it like a giant kickpanel pod? Thanks, this has been a GIANT pain in the ass.

Basically just do fiberglass on the back of the cab and on the floor to get the most air space possible, add some reinforcements on the big flat sections. And use wood on the side's, top and front, and middle to separate the 2 air chambers. Should be a good $600 or so box job. You'll probably end up with around 1 cu/ft of air space for each sub.
