so is this just a demo truck for a company to show what you can do or is it a personal, completely SICK build? also, you planning on painting and hiding everything or leave it how it is?

Also, how do you not have serious problems with everything rattling apart in your truck? With just my 2 mtx's under the back seat, it rattles my shifter like hell and sounds terrible when im pushing any amount of bass unless i hold it down to keep it quiet. Or do you just have it so loud that you cant hear it even though its there?

Its a personal truck, its my daily driver.

We are looking for a different topper that stays flat, I HATE this topper.

We go all over FL and GA and compete all the time.

I really dont have any problems with stuff shaking. Atleast that I can hear.

Right now I got everything unhooked, the roof ripping apart def set me back a good bit.

Once I get my new batteries, and run all my wire into the bed of the truck, we can see what full power will do

about 12kw RMS

Right now with everything on half power still(400w per sub roughly), with the mic(termlab), sealed up on the windsheild, bass race style(30sec on music), and with the ripped roof it did a 148.7 @ 34hz (slowed down version of air forces).

We are hoping once we power it back on with the 2nd amp it will be well into the 50's, the problem is the box is tuned to low, it will play down to 17hz without problems, 24hz is what broke the roof. Once I start going higher than 38hz we started to lose on the meter and the lower we went the higher the numbers.

Ok, so as some of you may or may not know, my truck didnt come with power windows, so I went to the junkyard, grabbed power window door panels, switches, and the trim panel for the switches and installed the power window kit.

I was left with this



Everythings hooked up besides the power mirror switch, which I dont have power mirrors and dont care about them, so I turned it into a bass **** instead.



Once its installed in the door, youd never know it was there, and it could maybe save my *** if I get pulled over I could use the "my **** doesnt work excuse"

What do yall think?

Yea man for sure. I love showing it off !

Give me about a month or so, and Ill have everything done and finished, I just ordered a new topper, painted to match, has all the windows, and doesnt raise up, that set me back a good bit

Still need some batteries(6 I think will do it)

But first I need to figure out if Imma go to 18v or stick to 12v

I cant leave my truck alone either. I just ordered a new set of 6.5's for the doors. Some HAT image series. Was so looking forward to them and they dont fit into the doors! Had 2 IDQv3 12's ordered, had to RMA one and now the shop owner is MIA with my sub and money. So after waiting 2 months, i filed the c/c claim. Then i orderd a kenwood x4r, so i could run my system active, and it had a bad channel. So i had to rma that. Im tired of stuff not working as i plan them. lol
