Yessir! Regular cab with a full interior doesn't leave much room!

Here's a trailer attached showing the interference with the toolbox. On flat surfaces it's fine, but any kind of incline and the trailer gets into the box, especially when turning.
![]() So I may have come up with a decent idea... What if I put the ESC and sound unit under the seat like this? ![]() It'll be tight, but I may be able to squeeze both the speaker and battery under the hood. No external box and easy battery swaps, but I'm not a fan of the battery sitting so close to the motor and potentially getting hot. ![]() I also have this speaker which is quite a bit smaller, but would likely require a box to be built. Nontheless, it would take up less room than the other speaker. ![]() ![]() And if I did decide to build an external box for it, it could be much slimmer than the one I built before and it shouldn't interfere with trailer articulation. ![]()

Sounds like you have a plan... putting the speaker in a smaller box sounds like your best bet.

Could the battery drop in between the frame rails between 5th wheel & cab?

Well, I think I have a bit of good news. I did some experimenting with the assortment of Lipos I've got and came up with a solution....I think.
![]() ![]() So I "fabricated" some super high end speaker box mounts and taped them to the firewall. These may get glued if the tape doesn't hold. ![]() Then I taped the speaker box to the brackets. The box and brackets are angled downward to allow clearance under the hood and the speaker box is just barely not touching the motor. ![]() And here is where the battery will go. I'll need to locate the rx somewhere, but I'm less concerned about that since it's pretty small. ![]()

I guess you've found a way to pay for your hobby, manufacturing high end speaker mounts
