Ok, I have a question I have a guy that bought a 2 12 box for his silverado and now he wants me to build a box for the 12s now but he wants a ported box for them. Has anybody tackled this before? If so, please let me know what you did and how you did it.

not alot of space back there hard project to do i have not heard of anyone doing it without taking out the rear seat of a ext cab
i dont know if this will help you but kicker makes ported truck box with comp and comp VR subs should fit
Ported designs require a lot ore volume than sealed designs do, so you will have to try and gain as much space as you can. If you use a box design program, I use WinISD, you can design a smaller volume box than recommended by the manual for the woofers. Granted you'll wind up with some unreasonable port sizes at first but if you go to a square port you can play with the size of the port more. You will also have a roll-off point at a slightly higher frequency and a peak a little before that roll-off. You'll loose a little output, so you'll just have to play with it. It can be done it is just where you are willing to scarifice. I have done this with some Audiobahn flame-Q's, taken them from about 1.95^3 feet to about 1.08^3 feet and lost very little output. Good Luck!
I have an '05 silverado, i recommend kicker L7 S8" 's. Largest speaker than can be placed under factory seat. You should comfortably be able to fit 4 & amp under it w/o changin original seat config.
