c.director Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 (edited) Soo many good build threads going on, I hope to add to it. On to the pics: My truck, just picked it up with 123,000 miles on it. It came with a cheap Head Unit(will be changing) and 4 JL Audio speakers, they sound plenty good enough for now.: Along with my KnuKonceptz order: Starting under the hood: Had to get a last minute yellow top because my stock took a crap during the install! 0 Gauge with a 250 Amp fuse. Running under the truck. And finally into the cab. Cab stripped with power, rca's and remote wires ran. Alpine HU going in (CDE-121) Start of the false floor: It started to get dark at this point, but I have a level false floor in: A better shot of the floor, and putting a riser in the middle.

c.director Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Floor completed: I had originally planned on keeping a middle seat: Speaker rings cut: I could find a proper bit and didn't make the rings big enough, so I only got a small rabbet, maybe it'll help lol: Back to the floor, a spacer to make it set level, use the stock battery as a weight! Bottom and two sides of the sub box cut and layed in, now were starting to see it! More cutting: Box assembled for the first time: A proper rabbet: Speaker ring set: The purple line is where I had to cut to make a better shape: Fleeced: These are for 15's, I know its not a lot of airspace (it will be sealed) but the subs will be inverted and foam added. The subs are Audiobahn AW1571T. This is a temp system until I can afford some real gear. Though I have been impressed with them as far as performance to cost ratio. Here's an example of how they will look inverted: Both Fleeced: and all set in, with some wiring holes drilled and amps placed: Thats all for now, i'm beat and gonna get some sleep soon, more when I get off work tomorrow!

c.director Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 (edited) Alright some more pics! didn't get near as much done as I wanted, the weather made it take forever. Started glassing. Started with just a layer of resin: Then went to the inside for some wiring: Terminals are all soldered! it was a pain to solder them inside the cab with a torch. Grounded. Fused D-Block wired for now. Almost all wiring complete: and finally laying some glass down First layer not the best looking, but all in time Stayed tuned for more updates, i'm trying to get it done as fast as i can, i'm ready for some bass!

c.director Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Thanks guys. More tonight I should start glassing and hopefully get it playing. Looks good, I like the rabbet idea I actually got that idea from another build on here haha It's good, but a hand stapler makes for a mess no matter how you do it.
