My first Ranger I tapped the rear speakers for high level input to an amp and stuffed a box with two 12” subs hooked to my stock radio for years until I eventually blew out the subs and then someone stole my amp. Worked great but I had a car sub box stuffed in the extended cab which pretty much made that space useless.
In more recent history I’ve built a couple custom sub boxes and a center console out of 3/4” 7-ply B-C sanded plywood. Glued all the joints on the boxes with Locktite 3x construction adhesive and screwed them together with countersunk Spax brand construction screws (they are essentially a grade 5 screw and not brittle like drywall screws).
