These cabs are just like the current 150 cabs right? Are there already options available? My 2013 F250, I did 1 single JL 13" behind the rear seat, did the job, but with this new truck, there isn't much room back there. Guess I'm looking for a design to go under the rear seat. What are my options?

I've had success in the F150's building a custom ported box with three RE Audio 8's. Sounded damn good, should be able to duplicate on these trucks no problem.

Here's what I ended up with. I custom built my box to hold 2 JL13s. It's not ideal, but I already had the speakers, so just had to make a box for them. I didn't like the square corners, so I tried to follow the contour of the rear seat. It's not dead on, but it's really close.

I use the back seat storage quite a bit, so I couldn't give up that area. I ended up making a custom birch/fiberglass box that's about 1.2 ft3 and fits absolutely perfect in behind the rear seats. Still lets me put my rears up to get to my storage as well. Really bumps too.

Just seen this wondering if anyone else added subs or changed door speakers in one of these yet?

Nice work Tricon. When I was working for Dad working with fiberglass, I made a really nice sub box for my girlfriends car. To make it fit snug and PERFECT, you would line that shoe back wall and floor with foil, a couple layers, wax the foil, then lay fiberglass to make the back wall and floor of the sub box. Let it cure. Pop it out, voila, there's your Base of the box countoured to fit right in! Build the rest with wood framing and cloth. Bonds and sand away, paint when done!

A few pics I pulled off google to show what I was talking about. For anybody interested, it's fairly easy. Time consuming. But you a lot lighter than wood and looks cooler imo!
