CrazyCricket12 Posted January 13, 2012 Author Report Posted January 13, 2012 Here's a better video of it in daylight before I pull it out and add some more stuff and prep for paint.
ellowmoto Posted January 13, 2012 Report Posted January 13, 2012 i would get a new battery up front, then new batteries in the back, then an alt. my reasoning behind this is, batteries are often cheaper than alternators, and more times then none, an HO alt is not needed with systems like yours. Dont get me wrong, it would definitely be nice, but if you have a nice battery up front and two decent ones in the back, your voltage drop shouldn't be too significant.

That's good to know bc I'd like save as much money as possible and if I don't an alternator I can put that towards other things then just get one later. I was worried that I would need one to charge my batteries properly.
CleanSierra Posted January 13, 2012 Report Posted January 13, 2012 Did you double up on the baffle? I'm Missing it if you did, I can't totally tell from the pics. Get an alternator before you get batteries. More batteries equals MORE strain on that stock alternator. You gotta make power to have and use power. Once a battery bank has depleted caused because you can't charge it, you're not doing any good. Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

CrazyCricket12 Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Posted January 14, 2012 Really nice box.. question, being 45 wide can you still slide it out of the car not? Yep, it fits right in between the little wheel humps
CrazyCricket12 Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Posted January 14, 2012 Got everything taken out and the box painted. Waiting on it to dry as I type this. Let me know what you guys think.
WhiteTB Posted January 14, 2012 Report Posted January 14, 2012 Looks good. I would really suggest you get your electrical right before anything else. It takes power to make power. Invest in a Ho alt first then add batteries. Team DOA Team gg
CrazyCricket12 Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Posted January 14, 2012 Thanks. The electrical is my next priority just got to keep saving. Here's a pic with the subs in the box.
