How to bridge a rockford 800.4 amp

This is a lot to ask, but here it goes. How do you go about to bridge a 4 channel amp to a 2 channel? What is needed to do this? These are the specs of the 800.4 amp.

100 W X 4 @ 4 Ohms RMS @ 1% THD

200 W X 4 @ 2 Ohms RMS @ 1% THD

400 W X 2 @ 4 Ohms Bridged RMS
Total power 400 Watts RMS
I want to get 2 12" cerwin vega: vega series subs.
specs on 12" cerwin vega:vega series sub. (I have 2 of these)

76-400 watts rms
800 watts peak
200-500 hz frequency range
4 ohms

How can i bridge this amp to go with this setup? Or is there a better amp for this setup? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

all it takes is the instruction manual and a brain to comprehend it . for real if you dont have the manual, all you have to do is look at the amp. i think it should say "bridged" and have arrows pointing to the correct terminals to connect your speaker wires to. you will take the negative from one channel, and the positive from the other. that will bridge them. you bridge the A's or front's together, and the B's or rear together. but the manual can make what i blunty described a little more sensible. hope i helped some .
