Talking Show and Tell: My new amp rack

Thought I'd share some of the pics of the amp rack I built in the bed along the bulkhead. Shown are a pair of Zapco Competition amps, a 4.0 and 9.0. Behind the panel is a Kinetik 1800 battery, component crossovers and distribution blocks.

I'm not too concerned about weather. The tonneau cover provides a decent weather seal (since I've had it, I havent seen any water in the bed). It's basically equivalent to a trunk. Still missing, however, is the acrylic/plexi to cover the amps themselves. This will protect the amps from driving rain or snow when I open the cover to get access to the bed.

Also of note, the amps are not right up against the back wall, they actually sit about 3" off of it. If a leak were to happen, it would fall behind the amp rack. If I start seeing water or something back there, I'll get the thing rhino-lined, but I doubt that'll be an issue.

Pics of the subwoofers and front stage are in the works, so I'll post pics when they get done.

Very nice. Where did you run the wire? Drill through back of bed into back of cab? Did you use 17' cables?
