IBleedMusick Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 If anyone could help me with this I tested the shim multiple times before I did the recone and now that I have glued everything back together I can't get the shim out. I have trying to male it budge since last night with no luck and it wont play until I can get the shim removed. Hopefully this has happened to someone here before and one of you has a solution. 2013 Dodge Charger Build Log 1996 Ford Explorer XLT 5.0Build Log 2005 Honda Civic LX Coupe Build Log SMD SUPER SELLER!!!!My Selling Feedback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrionStang Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 Did you get glue on the shim? Good luck if there's CA on there. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBleedMusick Posted May 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 I don't think so, I don't know how I would have gotten glue there but this is killing me. Is there anyway to fix this without having to destroy the sub and buy another kit? 2013 Dodge Charger Build Log 1996 Ford Explorer XLT 5.0Build Log 2005 Honda Civic LX Coupe Build Log SMD SUPER SELLER!!!!My Selling Feedback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrionStang Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 How about playing it at low volume, like a 20hz tone. Just enough to get the sub to move. Might help. You got nothing to lose at this point. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickass audio Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 What kind of shim did you use? If you used something that went all the way down the gap to the bottom of the motor like i did when reconing my SMD you can push down on the cone to try and push the former down further and then back it up out of the gap when you release your pressure on the cone. It sounds like you may have gotten some CA on the shim or the shim somehow hooked around the voice coil which is damn near impossible to do. You can try to take a very thin knife or something that is small and put that as like a wedge between the inner part of the former and the shim to break it free then use pliers to pull it out. 2004 GMC Envoy1 XS power S3400 batt under the hood and 4 XS Power D3100's battery installed in the rear by the amps0 gauge power wire from front to backAlpine iva-w205 touchscreen dvd/cd/mp3/ipod/am/fm/gps headunitSundown Audio SAX-200.4 amp for my mids and highs8 gauge speaker wire from amp to woofer270 amp Mechman AltRockford Fosgate T1652-s component speakersRockford Fosgate 3Sixty.2 sound processorRca's from Rockford Fosgate and Monster Cable14 gauge speaker wire for the mids and highs1 18" Ascendant Audio SMD Dual 1 ohm with custom Black & Blue carbon fiber and hand signed dustcapBox: 5.66 cubic feet net volume box tuned to 30.13Hz with 1.5" wide wooden dowels and 1.5" thick baffle1 DC Audio 5.0k amp wired to .5 ohms nominal with an imp rise of 1.35 ohms for the single AA SMD 18"Future Vision 8000k 50w bi-xenon projector HID's with 4300k 35w fog lightsLink to my build: Buildupdates/progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
