well today was an interesting day. worked out in the lawn repairing a leaky tank, and broken pvc pipes do to the freeze. also was late to work because i stayed busy. building a little somethin somethin for my center console, let you figure out what.




my truck


brother truck


our two dogs. my 14 year old lab and her year year old pointer friend.






















an artsy photo. i really like it.

 

Looks like you stayed busy, does ur brothers truck have a rancho lift on his truck.

 

Nice pics man.

Mount for your Edge in the console?

 

cst lift on the truck.

truckguy, yes it will be mounted on the box. It will be mounted top side, angled up. but, thats not all lol.

 

Speaker housing as well or something?

 

haha, i was going to do two simple door speakers on the sides. wrap it with pleather to match. top left have it angled up a little for the edge. ive been thinking about doing a sub, a ten. idk, i still like the idea of two door speakers. nothing crazy. just clean little box. eventually i will have two tens under the backseat.

Going to pick up a 1/2" x 4 x 8 sheet of mdf here soon. cant wait to get this built. this is my first speaker box.

and my edge, wow. i love it. been getting 20 mpg in the last two days, thats after i did a couple 0-60's and 1/4 miles of course lol. painted the little pod, its not as glossy as the pic shows. i dont like it though.

 

Sounds good man

 

hey i appreciate it man.

i have been taking pics step by step, maybe when i get it all said and done ill have a cool little walk through.

question: when i wire my speakers, i was planning on doing one door speaker on both sides of the box. one at the driver right knee and one at the passenger left knee.

how should i wire them?

should i do the driver speaker (new speaker) wired to the passenger side door speaker (behind the head unit of coarse) or to the driver side door speaker?

here is my little diagram. the U being the new box. the arrows being the speakers.
----> <-U-> <----

 

I hope it turns out well, but I would die if I didn't have the room there in the middle, really handy when ( as it turns out last night ) the girl I take out can slide over next to me.

But, I suspect it will turn out well, I am not much for fabbing things my self.

 

x2

 

ha, i prefer the backseat

and as far as fabbing things up myself, i did one box today. it turned out okay. it will just make the next one better. i think im gonna wrap this one in black carpet. idk. pix uploading.

 

 

lookin' good

 

Doesn't CST only make an 8" for our trucks. That doesn't look like an 8" lift

 

Truck looks good. How many miles have you gotten out of those KL71s?
