audiofanaticz Posted November 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 is the hoe getting sent to a shop to get fixed? Yup, towed it to the transmission shop this afternoon, and they will even keep it indoors for me as well. Thats a HUGE plus! One guy said he knows this truck and it was loud before, he asked what it does now I said its over a 156 and I''ll bring it back once I get all the fuses and batteries connected for him to hear it. So he is all giggity. Think it needs a new starter too now, so I told them to just do that right away. Should hopefully have it back by Friday from what they said, maybe Thursday if they can get a flex plate soon enough What woofers would you do to do 4500 per woofer? Which ever company gives me the best deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiofanaticz Posted November 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 So I got stranded at my buddies junk yard because my flex plate has been shot for years, and whenever it stops in the spot with no teeth I grabbed the 5/8 socket and ratchet and cranked over the motor a little bit by hand to get it to a good spot on the fly wheel so the starter can spin the engine over. Now the bolt Ive been turning for the past few years is starting to round off on the head (since august 2nd of 2011 when i noticed the problem). So I ended up getting quotes on replacing that whole ordeal and had to tow my truck since I couldnt get it to start again. That cost $500, plus they said the starter was shot. Luckily I still had the receipt from the last starter and got a new free duracrap starter for them to put on since it had a limited lifetime warranty. Finally got around to putting in the Rockford Fosgate 3SIXTY.2 that Mr. Meade sent me to play with. Then this white shit decided to fall.... Picked up a couple new parts from my buddies junkyard today as well from stuff that is already breaking Just a little bit of testing that I have done thus far. Which none of can be anything official to go off of since it was all done in cold weather, the woofers didnt have much play time and super stiff, the wall is not sealed off, and there are no trim panels, as well the front port is not final and just playing with different sizes. So for all I know the score could go down in summer, or up once everything is said and done.Its over a 150db so Im happy, numbers dont mean to much to me since I dont compete anymore, and probably wont unless I drive outta state to a larger show or something. sealed on the dash (db drag rules). Outlaw (usaci rules, mic in kick panel driver door open). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

audiofanaticz Posted November 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 I got the transmission about 5 years ago with under 15,000 miles on it. The recipet from the dealership that installed it in the junked vehicle was still in the glove box. Its a gm goodwrench (not rebuilt) out of a burban that got smacked pretty hard. I forget the reason, but we had to use mine out of the old transmission, i want to say it had a crack or something but cant remember 100%.
