Are you gonna put some 2x4 bracing on the outside of it?
Yep have 2 on the back wall...more will be going on the sides and front baffle . The top and bottom are double and will be braced with the port also . Might do a threaded rod front baffle to back...we'll see .

Tomorrow I need to cut the trim panels for the sides...top and bottom of the wall . Maybe i'll mount the front baffle if I have time . I plan on having it all done by the end of the week . I haven't decided if i'm going to carpet or spray bed liner.
