Tactile Sound Technology in a driving cabinet?
syph007:
+1 on the buttkicker.
It's been used in at least one project on this site.

One guy took the shakers out of a bunch of Xbox controllers and put them in the seat of his cockpit driver. LOTS of custom work but I bet it works really well.

A friend of mine makes the subwoofers that go under a sofa leg--perhaps these would do the trick.

So you would set those under the leg levelers? I guess you could make a clamping device and put it inside the cab too. :dunno

The full-sized home theatre Buttkickers can shake a couch with several people on it in disturbing ways, and will be more than powerful enough for any reasonable application. Note that they need 400 watts of amplification minimum (and can take up to 1500!). I'm confident that one could make a cockpit cabinet walk across the floor if properly amplified. :)
I haven't tried the smaller Aura Pro shakers, but I'm told they're far less powerful. Much cheaper, though, 50$ or so at Parts Express.
