Subwoofer Upgrade

I'm looking for a little more bass. I have upgraded the head unit, amp, and speakers in the front of my truck, still running the factory sub. I have 2-channels of my amp available for a subwoofer and would like some input on what to do. Believe it or not the factory rear speakers sound good with the new amplification and the factory 6" subwoofer is better but I want just a little more. Where can I get an enclosure to fit where the factory sub sets? I have a crew cab and a power sliding rear glass. Again, a 10" will more than likely suit my needs, I just need a box.

I suggest you go with an amplifier and a new box from an outfit such as this: Ford F-250 | F-350 Subwoofer Boxes

I like some of those enclosures, they would have made some of my installs a lot easier "back in the day" as my kids say.

Here is a couple of very helpful threads on the sub(ject). And BTW, it makes a huge improvement replacing the OEM sub/amp.

Factory subwoofer upgrade?

Couple more threads regarding stereo upgrades for the 11+ up trucks. I'm using the box gotsmoke has in his post in my setup.

Thanks Matt. These are some real great options. I'm thinking about going with a single 10" and the SCS enclosure. The build quality is my only concern, I'm confident I will be pleased with the output.
