i think the cummins have higher output alts anyways. i may be mistaken but im pretty sure they do. it may not be by much tho but i remember reading it somewhere. if anything the high output alt would be for the intake heater grid thats only when its like below 50 degrees tho. i think they can draw over 100 amps. plus your fuel system will also draw power too. so the high output alt from the factory seems like it might be true.

so my trucks got this ugly blue interior. im planning on doing a black seude headlining and also wanna paint my dash and all the plastics blue. pretty much im gonna redo the whole interior in like a black and gray. but onto my question if im gonna be paintin the dash black i wanna go with a gloss but if i make it gloss and i gonna have to worry bout blindin myself or passengers? anyone have issues like that? would a satin finish be better?

well a way that u may not wanna try but to get displacement u can get a tub with water deep enough for the sub and measure the amount of water inside the tub then drop the sub into it and measure how much the water rose to get the displacement. but really if i didnt know it really measure the magnet cause i would think that would take up the most displacement. 3.14 X radius squared X the height of the magnet. u still would have to get the displacement of the basket but this should get u closer.

ok to clarify to everyone. i would like to do 2 10s and according to fi i have the cubic ft for them. now does anyone have a clue on that magnet's outside diameter and how many inches deep the thickest part of it is b4 it tapers?

thats one of the factory 6x9s

im gonna go get a pic of the space. its dirty right now cause it was given to me by family as a project and dog hair is seemingly impossibly to remove from the underside of the bench.

i was actually going off what fi recommends so thats why i thought 2 10s would be good. even tho it does seem fairy small of a space.

totally missed the mounting depth on there. haha. it looks like that motor is what maybe 8-9 inches. under my bench it tapers up from bout 11inches to 6 inches tall and the taper is bout 9 inches long after that its a slow taper down to 3 inches and its total 17inch deep. im sure i could make it fit itll be tight but even if i gotta make the box stick out a lil w/e. plus the seat is soft so i can make stuff fit with a lil force. haha.

just thought bout that. how long is the sub actually cause i know its gonna have a nice size magnet and that might not fit unless i make it stick out the seat more. ill get some dimensions now

if thats the case then ill be fine with it i just wanna squeeze as much bass outta the space i got. and also are there better options for subs? and by just doing one 10 am i gonna be dissapointed with the sound of it?

first off i love to bump. but i also love the truck i got right now. i wanna keep the rear bench seat also. so my plan is to do a build that will be loud but also compact. now i measured it out and ive got around 1.2 cubic feet under the bench seat to work with i would like to do 2 10s. i dont plan on burping at all. now i planned on goin with making sealed enclosures for them but would i be better off with a ported. if i have to im sure i could maybe get 1.5 cube out of it if i really make the box fit perfectly. also would i maybe be better off with going with a different series. i would still be stuck with only 10s tho cause thats all the bigger the gap is gonna allow. my main goal for this is to make it louder or as loud as wen i had my 4 fosgate p1 12s running in a jeep. any help is appreciated.

ok.
