Nick7186 Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Looking for ideas of reinforcing the roof of my crew cab silverado. Im going to have to take my headliner out to put some deadener up and was wondering if anybody has any tips or pointers for anything else I could do to keep it from jumping so bad because the sound of that metal moving is horrible. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/204255-nicks-06-silverado-4-evil-18s-161/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

memphisBred Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 I wouldn't think that would need more than sound deadening. SMD Super Seller/Buyer Audison----Hertz----Rainbow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick7186 Posted October 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Thanks for the replys. I was thinking about running a few 2" wide 1/4" thick strips of metal between the roof and deadener also. Im sure the deadener would kill the noise alone but id like to make it stop flexing too if at all possible. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/204255-nicks-06-silverado-4-evil-18s-161/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
