dsmdan's 05 Quad Cab Ram Build Thread


Recommended Posts

I guess I'll start a build log to show everyone what I'm working on. I've done several nicer setups for others in the past but this is the first time I'm building a nice setup my self.

2005 Dodge Ram Quad Cab Short Bed Hemi power! SLT package with leather and sunroof as well.

I am removing the 2 seater portion of the rear seats, leaving the 1 person portion for a passenger.

Setup so far is.

1 18" RD Heavyweight GP version, dual 2 ohm coils. (in transit)

AQ3500d Amp (in transit)

DC Power 270xp alternator. (in transit)

2 runs of Shok 1/0 cable.

Optima red top up front

C&D 100lb 135ah batt in rear.

Eclipse CD8445 HU

Knu Conceptz 3 1/0 batt terminals

Knu RCA's

Stinger LED Vol meter

Here's the truck about when I bought it 1.5 years ago.

Got my AQ3500 today, it looks like a beast. Here's a few pics and a comparison to a buds RD3250v2.

Also my DC alternator will be here Monday and the RD 18" HW will be here Wednesday. I also installed the Eclipse HU last night, I'll have some pics later.
