  1. i have a 2008 dodge ram 1500 with a 5.7L

(will post build when finished)

    thanks

  2. hi, i got a 79 cutlass ive been working on, it was in an accident then sat for 10 years and got extremly rusty. i fix the front of the car that was in the accident, but the back half of the car is rusty. the surface rust came off good from just sanding it to bare metal. theres a lot of rust that i cant seem to get up though. i started on on the trunk, all the surface rust came up, but in some parts the metal is black(idk what thats called), and i cant sand that off. I was using 150 but it wasnt doing much of anything so then i started using 100 and it did seem to help get it off much, any ideas?

    heres some pic so u can get a better idea of what im working with:

    car sat like this for 10 years in the sun:

    any ideas on how to get this off easier would be nice, kinda sick of sanding for hours with not much of results

  3. must not stand out too much i didnt even notice till you said something.......i forgot i even had a third brake light. Oh well its just fine the way it is.

    ya thats true, i just saw the smoked lights that blend with the car nice then the red brake light, lol

    u know what ur doin tho cause from what i've seen you do to the tahoe i can tell you got good taste in cars, everyones just quick to input on everything on here, lol

    cant wait to see this finished

  4. I like how you painted the D-pillars also... I didnt like the color at first, but its looking better the more I see it, and it put together... taillights look good... too...

    Its ok though, I didnt like the color of mine for a year after we got it... It kinda grew on me...

    You shoulda shaved that 3rd brakelight... I know, but, I already did it to mine... lol 8)

    it doesn't really need to be removed, even though there kinda pointless, but it should be smoked at lease to match the lights because it kinda stands out from looking at the pictures, everything else blends nice.

    looks sick

  5. my friends dad is looking for me to put some stereo stuff in his truck

    hes not into the extreme bass like some of us here,

    but hes looking for some good 10's (2) for his truck is all he really said

    im thinking he wants to spend around 800-1000 on this..

    so im thinking

    alpine cd9884 deck $215 (bestbuy)

    kicker ds6930 6x9" front door speakers $99.99

    kicker ds600 6 1/2" rear door speakers $69.99

    kicker zx350.4channel amp $219.99

    2 10" kicker comp 07c104 subs $89.99

    kicker zx300.1 amplifier $199.99

    kicker pkd4 dual amp wiring kit.. $67 (ebay)

    sonicelectronix on the rest is where i found everything but deck and wiring

    any ideas? or does this sound good?

    sounds good, what year is the truck?

    i did my system myself in my 08 quad cab, i got a 2 10 box with 1500 watts on it from probox which is good, hits hard.

    for 06-up rams u need to get a PAC C2R-CHY4 or else the cars computer trips out cause of the stupid data-bus system dodge uses

    or at least the cars with the stock nav system trips without this. i was getting airbag light errors, service engine and other stuff til i added this.
