I have the ram fox box under the rear seatbut I need to mount my amp and extra battery behind the seat. I don't think there is going to be enough room to mount the amp let alone the battery without the seat hitting on them. Is there any other options on where to mount them? Or do I need to pull the liner from behind the seat?

I mounted my amp behind the seat on the wall no issues

I was wondering this exact same scenario, minus the battery. I just figured I was screwed on adding a battery.

Did you build a "wall rack" or whatever you would call it? Or how did you attach it? Mine is a 2016 Crew.

Mounted the amp to a piece of MDF wrapped in carpet and just used liquid nail to mount the MDF to the back of the cab wall. Sorry the pics aren't the greatest but should give you an idea 2729f61542cb6523855222cca11bdf31.jpg774ff41e99f54c5d4c1bbad0f0692e2e.jpg

If you Go with a vararam intake you have plenty of room to add a couple batteries under the hood on the passenger side

I need to move my amps to the back wall too

Here's a picture of my setup. The amps shouldn't be a problem.

I have an XS power MX 950 supplemental battery under my back seat and it works out perfect. Because it's a sealed battery you can pretty much mount it in any position. Depending on the wattage you're running this might be a good choice for you.

Here's what I did with my Alpine PDX-V9. Pardon the wires, I since cleaned that mess up.

I have 2 massive gtx10 4ohm wired to 1ohm on a db drive1500.1d mono in fox box. 1 run of 0gauge for power and ground on factory head unit. I have a kinetic battery that I'm trying to put behind the back seat. Is the room different between the wyad cab(body style I have) and the crew cab. This shouldn't void my warranty will it. Eestee70 is the battery laid on its side under the rear seat? I'll give the dimensions for the battery tomorrow and how much room from the rear of the fox box to the back wall. I can't get the back seat mod to work. Used washers with the spacers from fox acoustics and couldn't get smthe rear bolts started.
