I usually used 3/4" MDF, although 5/8" would work as well. 1/2" could, provided there aren't a lot of big flat surfaces and it were braced properly.

Hey do you have any more shots of yours 70short and could you post the demisions or something on that picture or a diagram or anything? that is mroe what I am going for but with only 1 sub and 2 speakers.

Re: Speaker/Sub Box
 
its 1/2" mdf, those are generally shallow subs that are supposed to sound good in smaller boxes, its alot of trial and error. good luck and i can try to answer any questions you might have. oh and the only thing i had to remove was the wire thing goin across under the seat that pulls in and out the pin that holds the seat track in the position its in, you can stll adjust the seat but it takes 2 people

My wire is allready gone since I got two boxs with 6x9's in them. Does the seat hit the sub at all? My subs are 5 1/4" deep so those should fit shouldn't they?

Edit: I just looked at your plans again and and noticed its only 5 in. tall from that little notch up. I wonder if I could make it any taller and still not hit the seat. I'll have to go measure it soon.

Hey longnlow72, sorry to ressurect a thread from the dead but can you tell me what size those subs are? Are they JL 8W3's? I have to pull my cab apart to do some repairs and fit some new carpet etc so I want to add a sub, amp and some component speakers in the doors to replace the current JBL 6x9's in the back end of the door as they don't sound great firing straight into the seats.

Here is mine, in a TF...
