I also have upgraded door speakers too but couldn't find the link.
I have a 2003 Ram 1500 Crew cab with a MTX Thunderform box under the rear seat. No modifications 2 X"10 woofers. It's about 8 years old and still shakes the outside mirrors.
I'm bumping on the skar (2) 12" s under rear seat box. no modification.1000 watt rms 1ohm. For the money it sounds great
This box is an absolute beast. I just put mine in today man it sounds like I have a regular box in my truck. I’m running slds sundown 12s at .5 ohm a they are rocking. I’m definitely going to get a bigger speaker because this box can handle it no problem
Great info in this vid. I was used to building cars, but I got a Ram 2 years ago and I’m looking into adding subs, a couple amps and upgraded speakers
When you wire 2 dual 2ohm speakers it leaves you with the impedance of .5 ohm. Looks really good tho! Cool box
That box looks nice, especially with the cup holders. I have an MTI box being made with 3 shallow mount rockford fosgate 10s for my ram 1500
It’s a very nice box they engineered, in my opinion the best you can buy online without having to get a custom box made.
I love that touch screen !!! I need one in my truck . Going to have to find a way to get a huge touch screen in my 2008 Ram !!
I put a Sony xav-ax8100 in my 07 I love it
Very detailed! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the support!!
Love the set up and knowledge. Great job guys
I have the same box. With sa12s and a taramps smart 3 , mechman 320, big 3 upgrade. Best box for the truck in my opinion
Was the seat touching ever a problem for it ?
@@4ceza471 doesn’t touch at all. I also ordered grills but doesn’t need them.
You can only go so high on the speakers.Because the box will not provide the proper amount of air space.Just cause it fits doesn't mean it's the right one
This box is a must have. I'll be ordering mine soon. Thanks man
Great Video! Thanks for sharing!
I need to get you to help me put a system in my Ram. 😎👍🏻
Yes for sure, it will not be hard
If you wired both of those d2's to one ohm and your amp is a class d monoblock andhas two connections you will be at a half of an ohm not one ohm
Better do a half to an inch higher seat lift
I bought mine about 5 years ago and it’s the best box I’ve had! I’ve many other boxes is this by far better than any sealed box on the market!
What subs are you running
Man thanks for sharing. You know what you want and it looks like you got what you wanted!!! Love dodge. Mine is a 2003 Ram 2500 Cummins Diesel 5.9L HO straight 6 bock with tuner!!! Im going to look up videos of how to build out my back seat to make the room I'm losing from having a cargo van. You are tricky dicky on the outline and understanding of vehicle impedance and voltage and ground.!!
Thanks for the good vid. But please tell me your boy upgraded that soundproofing job he did behind the seat. You can't have that looking like that after showing off those sundown's. Lol. 👍
Yeah I know buddy with the sundowns. He use to have a mean ass Nissan back in the gap!!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥very informative
With those sundowns with that box was he able to get the max power out of those with out it clipping ? Looking into getting that box for my 2 sundown 10s sdl for 2018 ram 1500 I have a q bomb right now and my 10s are chocking in that box I can barley turn up the gain a quarter with out then clipping
I got 2 500rms 10s ds18 in I think is a q bomb ported box
Because you have a 5 ft³ of airspace and your speaker fills up a tenth of that so you really only have 4 and they will get hot and clip but you put them in the ram box that's ported then you'll be okay no more clipping and more movement of the subs
7:39 you NEED to clean that air filter! :-)
Si muy linda pero en la parte de abajo seve la marca de subwofer donde queda pegado cuando se baja el asiento
If you have those sundowns truly wired how u said you have them wired wayyyy too low for that amp how u say they are wired it’s to .5 ohms and that amp is half ohm stable. And you were correct in a way about your rms increasing you have two 750rms subs sundowns at that and they can definitely handle more than rated! With that being said you would need 1500 watts at 2ohms based on the only way you’ll be able to wire in series/parallel. I have the sa12v2s in my ram in the fox box. I’m telling you you should be wayyy louder than that just my 2cents #ramlife💪🏾
Where are you Bro ? Haven't seen you in a while ? We all miss you :)
Las 2 los subwofers pegan debajo de los asientos poreso seben las gomas de los sub seven aplastados 😊
Nice truck!
tell me more about these seat covers! where did u get theM
The px6 unit did u hook to the green woofer rca? And under subwoofer setting in Hu what’s your settings for the amp?
What’s the best subs 🔊 for a 2002 dodge ram
So who’s system sounds better type R alpine or the sundown I just got my box
👍 this box is sealed? Or ported? Thanks
Where did he buy the touch screen car stereo from
phoenix automotive. 12.1 in. I had one and it was super glitchy. replaced with a linkswell 10.4 in. have never had a single issue with it more than happyu to sacrifice the small difference in screen size for the quality and amazing tech support.
Did he bolt the amplifier to the front of the bed?
Can you play it with the seats down
where did the rear seats come from
Where did you find the intake ? I am building my system now but I’m building a custom fiberglass enclosure for a sound quality build so it will be sealed, I was planning to fabricate a battery box and install battery on the frame rail under my Ram truck, I have 00 awg. and 0 awg. ofc wire, I have everything for my build but my tweeters, I have two illusion audio c10xl’s subs, four morel elate carbon 6.5’s, four Hertz legend ml 700.3 midrange 3”, a Helix ultra DSP and a stinger height 10 head unit with a few different PAC integration units, I have about 14 amplifiers I have collected over time but I’m gonna use either my Rockford Fosgate T1500 bdcp or my T2500bdcp if the subs will take the 2500, I have a 3200 watt sub amp plus another 600 watt but they are not AB technology they are D series, I sill need tweeters but I’m back and forth with someone trying to buy some scan speak beryllium 3000/60040 series , I am in process now building custom A pillar pods for my mids and tweeters plus I’m working on my kick panel to customize fabrication to squeeze the 6.5 with a tweeter into them, I hope the 320 amp alternator that I installed will be enough, I’ve read about bypassing the computer controlling output and installing an external regulator but I’d rather not do that. a If you don’t mind, can you let me know where to get the intake and the big screen head unit that you have and what is needed to mount them, I have some amps and new 6x9 speaker sets I’d get rid of if you know anyone interested, they are all top brands, Let me know if you don’t mind where I can find intake, if you want to PM me that works. Nice set up in your truck
Sounds like your going to have a good quality system you should post a video of it when it’s done. If you do a quick google search there are multiple sites that sell the vararam air intake, we picked this one up locally. The radio was ordered from phoenix automotive.
Do you happen to have any info on building that fiberglass enclosure? I'm very interested for my 16' Ram... Jason B.
Ramflo. I tried writing a long explanation on building but it was too much, they need a private message option here, maybe I’ll learn how to do RUclips and put a video on here of me building one start to finish. The fiberglass enclosure is easy to build and just takes a little time, I suggest looking at US composites web site for chemicals and matting because there’s different types, like carbon fiber, Kevlar and fiberglass along with different weaves and weights, also there are different resins like polyester, vinyl ester and epoxy, I suggest epoxy if you don’t want the strong chemical smell but it cost more, I use polyester resin and I already had some 1-1/2 & 3/4 lb. Chopped strand mat on hand so I used that on my last one but my next one I’m gonna use a hybrid chopped & cloth mat which is very strong and easy to work with. go to Net Audio on here at You tube and look at his videos you can also go to the website too but they’re (Net Audio, Paul) enclosures are expensive 1000$ and up depending on detail, which it’s very nice custom built unlike mass produced fox, not saying fox is bad just different league of detail, he is cheaper than he used to be now that more places build and sale enclosures but he was the first to build and sale custom fiberglass online that I know of and might still be the only one, if you don’t want to build your own and want to buy one that is where I would buy one from for myself, like I said I will try and learn RUclips because I could put all kinds of helpful videos on here and probably save people a lot of money too.
@@subzero59lt1 I found the intake thanks, I’ve heard of Phoenix but I heard they can be buggy I heard linkswell is the best but it’s not offered in my year truck, would you recommend Phoenix from your experience? I’m not real worried about the DAC since I’m going through a DSP. Thanks I’m gonna try and learn RUclips and start posting some stuff. Have a great Christmas
Your subs are dual 4 Ohms. If they were dual 2 Ohms, they would come out at 1/2 Ohm, much too low for most amps.
Thanks for confirmation!
Kinda kills me to see the subs being hit by the seats because I’m buying a new truck with subs underneath and don’t want to have them get ruined
They make grills to put over the speaker so the seat doesn’t touch them, I think we had put spacers underneath the seat bracket, so that raised the seat up
Nice!
Do you need an alternator upgrade?
It definitely will help when running big wattage amps
Where are you guys located? I can’t find a box for my 2019 Ram 5th gen Quad Cab
What was the name of your door speakers?
Whats the tablet called
i currently have a similar setup. just got a skar rp3500 amp for more power. before i install i will add the 2500 battery box (i have vararam intake). what alternator did you buy and did you replace the belt along with running big 3 ? thanks for info i been digging into this and its been hard to find
my 160 alt isnt enough
i got a 2019 f150 just ordered skar 500 rms dual 12" subs max 1000watt with svk 1500 amp wondering if my stock alternator will be enough?
should be fine bro@@pulsefiend
2006 nisan titan
What's a setup like this run? 🤔 $$
build your own fiberglass enclosure save $1000
and it will be stiffer the fox box is great but i think you lose alot due to box flexing
I worry about my seat sitting on top of mine is that something I should worry about or is it ok or should I raise my bench seat up
The box comes with spacers, you can actually buy another set of spacers but then you would have to get long bolts. You can also throw a grill/cover over the speaker so the seat won’t muzzle the speaker
how do you do the fold down back seat trick
When you buy the ram box just get the 2-in seat lift and it will automatically be ready for you to lift the seat and put the back seat down
Where can I get an alternator like that?
I run a 400 amp JS Alternator in my 11 Ram 1500
Did you have to get longer seat bolts to accommodate for the seat spacers?
No, if you use one set of spacers the factory bolts will work. If you double them up for more clearance then you will have to get longer ones
I'm going to switch to Skar Audio . Only reason I used all JBL is because my friend works for them and gets discounts for JBL, Harmon Kardon and Infinity :) Skar though is cheap and powerful !
Yea I’ve been seeing a lot of people run Skar audio!
If you want good bass to where your thumping under the seat boxes ain’t it as a ram owner they are not it I just removed my center console
what type of cold air intake is that
It’s a vararam cold air intake

Does your ram have any issues with voltage drop?? I have a mechman 320 alt In my ram with two batteries and once my subs hit on idle , my amp cuts out until the voltage comes back up .. any idea what im doing wrong?
No black truck didn’t have major voltage drop, at idle the battery gauge did dip down a little but it instantly came back up. The dual runs of the zero gauge helped alot with voltage drop. Make sure you check all your grounds. On your amp, turn your gain and bass boost all the way down. Play your music then slowly start turning your gain up and see what happens. The amp could be going into a temporary protect mode until the voltage to the amp comes back up. It’s possible you could need a bigger amp or a capacitor.
What amp do you have?
Will that box work in a 2008 mega cab
I don’t think soo, the mega cabs have boxes designed to go behind the seat. Those mega cabs are perfect for the low deep bass because you can get a bigger ported box in there. Fox acoustics might have some on their website
subzero 5.9 I’ve checked the website and it’s a different design. Thanks for the quick response
@@joejoe1992ify yessir no problem
Where did you get your seats??
They are seat covers from clazzio, but the real leather. They fit very tight.
@@subzero59lt1 appreciate man
How u guy comfortable using really small gauge wire to comet the subs
We wasn’t, just had used what was laying around the garage until the ofc wires came in
called t much money
Where did he buy the touch screen car stereo from
