Been a while, but im back. Just had a week off from work and got some updates to the Ram to post coming up. Gonna need some help with the finalizing of the numbers on my box. Gonna try to find some baltic birch later on today, its fuckin 4am and i been wreckin my brain crunchin numbers for this box.

Lol foreal tho this aint "overpaid" because these were the cheapest ones i could find, of THESE exact rcas anyway. I still need to buy 2 more of these but Sonic only had two left. If i was to buy them at my local shop it wouldve been $249.95 PER SET. They were $159.99 per on Sonic. Shipping was rediculous for these too but still cheaper than buying it localy. BUT i will say its probably overkill, and i wouldnt be able to "hear a difference". Fuck it tho, i wanted it. Everything else about my setup is overkill already so i might as well lol.

Finally had some good time off from work. Been doing some sound deadening. Full interior, pulled everything except the actual shifter and the dashboard. Ill be adding to the build log a lil bit in a couple days.
-
in Either i didnt use the dmm the right way or its more complicated than i thought lol. My dmm read 11.5 v on the battery while car completely off. Figured the battery was fine and something technical was wrong. Scheduled an apt at the dealers and a towing from AAA. Aaa said they could come take a look at it and see if they can help any. They hooked up a charge and the car started less than 10s after they hooked it up!? Lol wtf. The guy said the battery was really low, around 7v!? He said his machine simulates the car starting up or something, thats why my dmm read 11.5v but his charge machine read 7v??? Whats the deal wih that, can someone explain how that works just so i know a lil more.
His machine also shows the alternator is fine so he thinks i mustve left a light on or something and thats why it was dead in the morning. Glad thats sorted out for now. Hopefully thats all it was. How do i make sure my battery is good? If it went down to 7v is it gonna be able to hold this charge? After a few mins of being hooked up it was back to 12v. seems super fast .

Yah i was checking out that video. Apparently the cheap walmart dmm i got wont be good enough to get accurate readings, testing the probes on ohms it was all over the place and high. So just gonna wait till im off to go get a fluke dmm. I also got a battery charger so ill be charging the battery the checking for a parasitic draw. Hopefully its that easy to find.
-
I can tell you right now that dodges of that era had a shit load of wiring problems, ask me how i know......
Mine ended up being a bunch of faulty wiring underneath the dash.
Take it to a GOOD auto electric shop and let them figure it out.
-
Thats messed up broke lol. Yah ive gotten several "recall" notices over the years and had to take the car in. The best shop i think i have around here is the dealership. I have an appointment with them on Wednesday if i dont figure it out by then.

Just when i think im gonna get to finish running wires in the Charger floor.........

Imma be an optimist and say "atleast all the dust is getting washed off..."

Heres some of what i was doing when it down poured on me.
Took these in the car and fished it into the dash bezel area.
Then i didnt like how those metal connectors/housings would *clink clink clink clink* around, so i added some stuff to stop the clinking.

Noob question. There is a blue/white “remote turn on” on both harnesses. Im not supposed to connect thise two together right? I can use them as individual turn on sources?

Havent finished the goal yet of laying all the second skin on the floor and running the wires. I dont wanna update it till im done with laying all my secondskin on the floors/roof. Almost there tho, i just been kinna caught up with tryna get another ride so i can leave my charger at home and just work on it without having to worry about having to drive it to work the next day. Having only a daily driver wasnt cutting it. Been shopping around the past few days and tonight i got me a big brother for the charger today. So stoked.

Its a 2014 Ram 1500 4x4 Express, has the 5.7 hemi like my charger. Its only got 15k miles on it. Already thinking of a system for it???smh. Ill try to finish the charger first tho.

Congrats on the new purchase brahda! Lookn forward to checkn the updated build

pens agaDamn car crapped out on me this morning. Went to leave for work this morning and the car wouldnt start. Could it be because my battery is low? I dont know if its low but its never not started.
Since my rear seat is removed i can hear the truck compartment where my stock battery and fuse box is. When i turn the key over the dash lights come on and the trunk area makes a "click click click click click click" sound really fast for a couple seconds then everything goes off, then if i try again it does exactly the same but shuts off even quicker. What do ya'll think it is??? I gotta try to fix it when i get home from work.

Yeah check battery first. Next would probably be a starter solenoid. I only work on older vehicles so I'm not even sure if newer ones have the solenoid.
-
DMM
-
Alright ill pick up a digital multi meter. Would the dmm be able to tell if my alternator is putting out sufficient power to charge the battery? My coworker brought up a good point to check the alternator. I dont beleive the battery should've died. I think maybe becuase i dont drive alot (works less than a mile away, maybe even a mile round trip) that my battery weakens a lil from not being driven for long periods of time to keep it charged. The car is running for maybe an hour- hour half total per week on average.
-
Quick question about grommets.
-
The larger side of this grommet goes into the engine compartment side of the hole right? So its not sticking into the interior so much, even tho the 4/0 will still be a big protrusion but atleast it can bend a lil unlike the grommet.
-
Whichever side has an o ring is the side thats toward the engine bay. I think the nut side. Do both sides have an o ring?
-
The oring is removeable like a washer. I ended up doing it the way i mentioned, bulge on the exterior, nut on the interior

Shipment arrived....
One step closer! Still long ways to go tho.

These should fit nicely in my doors.

Check with one of the mods about your membership, bud. Shouldnt take over a week.

I dont use facebook. I already paid for the membership so that will make it alot easier, not having to upload to some other app then load it here. I post from a phone, i dont use a computer.
I messaged admin kyle and also steve. I think their inbox is probably so full im not sure how long before they actually see my message. I dont wanna message every statf member and irratate everyone lol. Ill just be patient.

This is some BULLSHIT right here. Something always gotta fuckup when im tryna do something. I was cuttin out my speaker adapter, went to out in a router bit on my bosch router table for the FIRST TIME. And the shit dont fit, brandnew collet was fucked up and bent closed so the bit wouldnt fit without jamming it hard. Used a vise grip wrench to yank out the stuck collet(nut was already separated from the collet which isnt supposed to be). Then i use a needle nose pliers to stretch it back out to how it should be and....this

Thanks man, yah i did order some earlier off amazon, i got prime so standard shipping was free. Wouldve cost an extra $20 to have it here by wednesday. But im only off today and tomarrow so doesnt matter as long as its here before my next day off next week. But i went and got a new router from lowes anyway so i can work on it tomarrow. I might just keep the router so i can have one i leave in my table and one i can keep as a plunge router for free handing. Tempted to just swap parts tho and return it lol.
-
Fuck. Your just beginning the process and pissed off already.... you have a LONG way to go dude. Shit happens ALL through out it man. Smoke a bowl, grab a beer or whatever an relax,.. move forward. You never lose. You either win, or learn. Just keep on.

Why doesn't Stinger Electronics acknowledge any online retailers???? I emailed them a couple times directly and they ignore the question and just tell me to use my local dealer.
So i emailed a "supposed" authorized stinger dealer about it and asking them if they could clear this up for me (why stinger wont acknowlegde them) and they wont reply.
Whats really real?

Ill probably just get the Knu wire. I wanted the Stinger becuase i know being awg standard it would fit easily. And also for the name.
-
Knu is just fine man. It'll fit great, promise. Dont let if stress you too much. And dont expect great customer service from everyone. Because theres plenty of vendors out there that will NOT help. Move along to another vendor with better service that deserves your dollars.

Yah i ordered a 1foot length of all the sizes of knu karma ss, just to be sure. So i can test fit it and find out ho big i can go on each wire. I know u dont need 12gauge on ur tweeters lol but im the type that would do it just because lol. I know 14 standard awg fits my tweets and the 4inch. But i only had 14 awg and 18 awg on hand to test. I should be getting the knu wires today or tomarrow. It was only like 7-8$ including shipping.
Stinger emailed again and said pretty much that sonic is a dealer. They still seemed reluctant to admit tho lol, their exact words were "they are.....". That was after i said "oh ok so sonic is an authoirzed dealer?". Becuase they told me they were forwarding my warranty question to sonic because warranties are handeled at the place of purchase. Had to go a little tricky route to get the answer, but i think i got it.

Bitcoin over 10k right now, wonder what its peak in its lifetime will be. I always thought u had to buy a whole bitcoin to be in it, but u can buy as much of a bitcoin as u want. $5worth, $20 worth, whatever. Shits pretty interesting. So fucked that hawaii is banning some of it. Bunch of old basterds over here lol dont wanna let the new tech in.
-
I have been really tempted to buy some. Thought about throwing $200-$300 in and seeing how it went. I keep kicking myself when i wait a week or two and see how much i could have made already. Just hard to jump in and know what to do. Dont wanna screw up and lose some money some how.
-
I know exactly what u mean. What scares me is the security of ur “wallet”. I dont know what wallet is the most protected and reliable. Ontop of that the Hawaii laws and shit. But right now BTC is about to hit 11k i wish i had some money to throw down on it. I threw everything i had into this USI-Tech

Does anyone know what amp class the linear power 4.1HVS is? I see their new amps say they are a/b. I couldnt find any details of what class the 4.1HVS is from the sites manual or anything.
- Show previous comments 5 more

Skulls so AB amps were being made before D? Yah maybe thats why its not specified. Id assume any lp amp was AB but i didnt see it specify a class anywhere so had me thinking.
-
I have never used any LP amps.
Someone on here really likes them. Cableguy was his name.
I'm about to start my first build with higher end equipment. Wish me luck, going for more of a true sq build. (Morel and mosconi zero line amps for my sound stage.)
-
Yah i seen ur build log post. I was considering the zero 1, its pretty close to what i want but id need two of them to be happy about it. But 6gz for two amps aint happening lol not letting myself do that. I have the as100.4 and as200.2 for my 3way front stage. So would be pretty nice to have all mosconi, but nah i cant drop all that on two amps just for 2subs.

FINALLY got a my hydraulic crimper coming in! Lol fk after 3 months its finally back in stock and got my shipping confirmation and its already in hawaii on honolulu, im stoked. Crimper should be badass. Its a Temco TH00034, should be here monday. Finally get some build log progress coming soon.
