So I have decided i want a crew cab / extra cab f150 between 2004 and 2008 and just thought i would see what people have done, system wise with them to possibly give me some ideas, or if you have any tips or what not on what to do / not do with them. Thanks :thumbsup:

guess nobody likes the new body f150
they're hard to get loud?
yep, subs forward port to driver side is what they like but not very easy car to get to do numbers with, thats why you don't see many builds
Shitty man, even though i am not trying to get numbers, just daily spl so loud to the ear, but i dont want to drop gobs of money just to get a decent ground pounder, thats kind of a bummer.
Are you wanting to wall or what?

Kenny Coleman has an 07(ish?) supercrew

3" seat lift kit, he managed to put two 12" Alphas under the rear seat sealed on an RD 1750.1

It's not going to hair trick or do anything crazy, but IIRC it was mid 40's very musically
different body style but i would never wall a crewcab

No i was thinking more along the lines of a extra cab and removing the backseats and building up to the window line, depending on what i would have to work with maybe 2 15's or 3 12's or something i don't even know.

Well, if you're willing to use the bed for batteries(or at least a toolbox) you can probably do 3 15's sub forward port up in that truck

3 15's will go into a burp box in an S-10, dont see why you couldnt do 3 15's daily in that larger vehicle.
well i think while i am here i am gonna go check out a extra cab 05 and see roughly what kind of room i would have to work with.

Never hurts to check it out

If you dont have time/cant get to one, next time I'm at my buddy's house I can take some measurements out of his truck

I say wall it with 8-12 12" subs :) and say to hell with it

i just want a really clean install and still have the thing fully functional not weighed down and cramped up. Dont want to be pulling much power either, no more than 3k for the substage and then a 2-channel with a decent pair of components and a nice battery under the hood. I'm extremely anal about clean interior so it would all have to look really slick. I want black interior so i would wrap the box in black vinyl and hide the amps, flush mount the tweeters, and what not.

I would be telling you a lie if I had said mine was real clean lol but I have four kicker cvr tens in the 2004 nbs in my avatar and sig. Ill post some pics up when I get home. Are you looking for just pics of substage or like big 3 and all? Also I've found that sub forward, port up so far is the loudest.
CJ18 has 4 15" XLs in his subs forward port up, but i cant remember what numbers he is doing.

ive tried for 2 and a half years to get this damn truck loud and i havent been succeful yet,

good luck

ive seen one that looks loud and Nick Morgan at AA built it, 4 mayhem 18s walled and 2 sundown 4500s. he hasnt posted sealed uip numbers yet though, but it moves some ridiculous air
It really wasnt that big of a task to do what I did man...and didnt really cost all that much....if you did it just a bit different and left the rear backrest portion of the seat together you could easily acheive what I did and just go taller with the box. that would give you plenty of room to do 2 12s and still seat 4 people. And if you decided to do something like that I could guide you step by step on how to do everything, and Id even take some pictures to help out. I wouldnt be too discouraged by all this just having the truck is nice F150s are awesome trucks.
oh and I have TWO XS D3100s under the hood....plenty of bank for some powa!
