2012 Challenger Re-Build + ANOTHER re-build


Recommended Posts

Posted

SO! This one has been a long time coming about 6 months in progress actually. Losing my job at the time added a huuuge amount of time to me being able to get all of this rolling, but i'm almost done with my rebuild and 2nd rebuild.. so here it goes!

Going from..

2 RE SEx 15's

1 Hifonics GLX 1400.1D

Over to,

4 Alpine Type-R 10's

1 Hifonics Brutus 2400.1 ( beastly!!)

1 XS Power D1200

First off, i'll throw out the video courtesy of LoudNLow931 of us building the new box for the subs. Yes, this box build was originally for 4 XFL's.. but we ended up deciding on type-r's.

Little something else picked up for the challenger.. time for some new wheels!!

First test fit of the subs.. had to remove the protective surrounds.. really don't like how it looks!

Zip ties for days..

Such a mess.. so many wires.

Subs in and amp mounted.. we really didn't think ahead with this one. 2 guys lifting a hard to fit box loaded with 200+lbs was not fun.

In and playing!

Now, I absolutely hated having to keep the protective surrounds off. I also was having some mad voltage drop issues from the awful 16ga stock ground on the starting batt. So I decided to pull it all out and redo the ground.. figured I might as well redo the box while it's all out and get some new goodies.

Heres why I love quad cabs so much.. pickin' up MDF on a rainy day isn't an issue!

With a night of drying it's starting to look even better here.

Something about the classic yet modern look of the challenger is just badass. Personally wouldn't put those wheels on them But they look clean as hell!
