FoxBody JL Stealth type box

[93svt]

Hello all

I just putting this out there if any of you guys are in to car audio as I am. I used to have a JL stealth box back in the day and have searched for years for a replacement with no avail. So I have a buddy that does custom car audio etc mostly with cad no jigsaw type stuff. I decided with his help to come up with something similiar because i didn't want to take up space and wanted good clean bass and most of us don't have spare tires anymore anyway.

so the encloser is built for a JL thin 10 and has a space for an amp. I am using the JL rd 900 to power all speakers and sub.

adding a couple of pics so you guys can check it out. The reproduced boxes will not have the glass cut in a JL shape so we don't infringe on copyrights

we are going to sell these for around $500 ready to add a subwoofer and Amp keep in mind the original JL box was like $1000 with sub

hope this is not against the forum rules

All good

Box looks to be sealed. Whats the internal volume?

Back in my car audio days we never mounted amps on boxes since they tend to rattle them some awful.

I need to measure the attic in my marauder to see about adding some subs. It needs it desperately.

thats an awesome setup! and im a huge JL fan so nice to see your using their gear. So nice to see top notch professional installs like that vs most of what people do. When i bought my foxbody it had the worst stereo install ive ever seen! not kidding first thing i did as soon as i got it home was tear all the junk out. power wire was legit duct taped together in the middle cuz the wire wasnt long enough. had 12 ga speaker wire ran all through the car running to the highs, i easily removed 30 lbs of wire it was insane!

I keep toying with the idea of adding some bass to it but dont really want the extra weight or power draw plus i need to be able to fit my golf clubs in the truck. Seeing this box gets me thinking though.

Is the sub firing downward underneath the box?

Will there be another variation without the built in amp rack?

Would a W1 fit depth wise? My daily is a 17 tundra crewmax and i bought a custom box from tech12volts out of georgia that fits behind the wasted space behind the back seat. He recommended going with the W1's over the thin woofers because for the cost difference he said it wasnt worth the upgrade. The box is ported and has 2 10's and im blown away on how they pound, Ive always had W3's before and was worried the 1's wouldnt even be close. If i did do something in the mustang i was planning to use a W1.

The box is built specifically for JL 10TW3 right at .58 cubic feet sealed. If you are not using fiberglass it is not easy to get the depth and keep it off the floor (damage to sub) Being that it is firing down.

The amp is in a separate compartment and I have zero rattles the box fits very tight. This is definitely going after non-bass head very clean sound and hidden.
Yes the Foxbody cars are hard to get right I have changed mine 3-4 times but with this box and an all active eq and crossover setup plus using Dynaudio for separates I am finally satisfied. I am very picky as I drive a BMW daily and they sound good but of course not apples to apples but after doing car stereo for 15 years and building systems that would compete in the pro classes I have become a snob

we could modify for other subs but looking around looks like the shallow Pioneer would be a good option. Keep in mind this is tested design so maybe an upcharge to change subs. Would have to modify CAD file of course.

The box will come covered in carpet and glass installed, sub wired.

PM or email me if interested.

Just wanted to add we can also do door pannel replacement if you would like. Maybe cover is broken or pocket hanging off too much whatever
