I would really like to build a box for my 8" sub and a rack for two Alpine Amps, but I lack the tools and general skill. The truck is an 07 regular cab, so space is tight. The sub only needs .4 cubic feet, so it shouldn't be too difficult. I would of course provide the materials to make the box.

Crutchfield links for reference:

Here is the sub:

Sub Amp 2:

Thanks all!

I have an 06 with the same concern. I would like to put a 8 or 10 inch sub in mine too. I think this spring I will try making my own in Fiberglass. Check out this site for the how to.

Its just the small amount of space is the only issue.
