Default Standard cab sub boxes

I'd like to build a sub box for my standard cab silverado to encompass two 10" subs, one behind each seat, and then a recessed section in the middle for the amp and some storage space. Has anyone made a box like this and has some dimensions possibly? Post up some ideas if you guys could, thanks for looking.

I'd rather build one so it's the way I want it, and it's not gonna leak if I do. I live in Alaska, so shipping that big box is gonna suck. I'm not looking to set records, just want a little bump.

I built a box like that several years ago for my '78 GMC. I also built the box that's under my back seat in my '01. I could give you a hand sometime, I don't have a lot going on. I think a downfiring box would sound killer in a RCSCB.

Have you been riding yet Jake?

No I got a bad stomach virus early last week that's laid me up for a while. Feeling a ton better now though so I'll probably go out this weekend, sunday maybe.

I built mine with enough room for a 10lbb bottle behind the drivers seat. You typically get a little more db's when you mount the subs closer together.
