What is everyone using to seal up the doors good on these trucks? Im talking about the cutouts in the door skins. I finally got together some funds to dampen everything and wanted to seal the cutouts all together.

Opinions???

Thats a real good post. I need to get pics up of my doors... They are over sealed...

 

Please do. I just got my truck & haven't built a system in years, literally. I wanna put something nice in it & deaden it up as much as I can. Looking forward to tinkering with another system.

 

As Low said, that link is a pretty good one.

Once I get around to actually deadening and sealing crap up I will probably use pieces of 1/4 inch MDF or the like, wrapped in sound deadener, with a peice of weatherstripping around the whole in the door, then use self tapping screws to screw the 1/4 MDF to the door. Makes it easy to get inside the door if you need to. Weather stripping around the speaker hole also.
Im not a huge fan of glueing the panels into wholes or clay around the speaker just because its a pain in the *** if you want to take out the speaker, fix something in the door, etc.

Layers of sound deading too, till you cant get the door panel back on.

Wow, he really did it up in that second link. Saving to favs...

 

Yeah, I want to see all of the deadening you did and how you sealed up the cutouts in the doors. Where did you stuff all 200 sqft of that dynamat x. I only ordered 60 ft, that is all my budget permitted. I plan on useing a ton in/on the doors. As the budget increases, so will the deadening.

I still need more... I still hear the road... Its a friggin addiction.

I put about 30 Sqft in my front doors. I didnt have 1/4 MDF at the time so I just put 2 layers over the entire door and cutouts. I also put a layer on my outside skin. If you hit the front door it just sounds like hitting lead. Dull Thud.

I did one layer on the back wall. One on the floor. 15 sqft in the back doors. And I still need to Great Stuff the back wall. I put a few bits on the roof when I did my overhead (Just where I could reach).

I would like to catch my bed, another layer on the floor, another on the back wall, full roof with 2 layers. 2-3 Layers on the firewall. Paint over everything... Then see where that takes me.

After reading that thread, I also want to clay my doors.
