here, on frf
I haven’t finalized that yet. I’m a bit concerned about the amp overheating so I’m planning on making it fit under the rear seat somewhere. If I have to relocate the jack then so be it but I should be able to make it all fit.

This weekend I am going to pull the factory sub unit and see what I’m dealing with. Tentative plans are to reuse the box with an upgraded 8”-er. I may add a few thin layers of fiberglass to the inside to stiffen it up if it seems flimsy and the cubic volume allows it. I know I may have to trim and tweak it a bit but I’m fine with that.

I’m not looking for crazy, thumping bass at ear bleeding volume so I think it should be doable with my plan.
the supercabs definitely have a lot less room to mount equipment. if you need ideas, let me know. we have built several boxes and can get stuff mounted for them.

Yeah that's why I switched from JLT to Moroso with clear cup so I could easily monitor but it still gets overfull occasionally.
being new to the 6.2 and raptor world this seems like a lot of oil being caught. but i guess its normal.

I think modern engines with oil squirters and internal pressures have more oil in the air, and yeah I think it is normal. Knock on wood but 160K miles and not a single issue with the "BOSS 6.2" engine.
