scooter99 Posted March 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 Yep me too. Imy not sure if that was a good solution or not, but I figured it was worth a try. I'll get it all back together tonight and see what it sounds like. Probably need to think about tuning now. I'm guessing my tuning is going to be quite different now that I've taken so much space away.

Way to go We'll I didn't have any kids this week, they're on vacation with my parents for spring break, so I've had some time. The box is nice, I like how it turned out for the most part. Really could've taken more time with it on the finishing, except it was a temporary deal so I got tired of waiting. The dash is starting to burn me out a bit I'm afraid. But I need to get back with it. I've been kind of avoiding it the last couple of days and it's going to make more damn work for me later since the filler has just sat now. Probably won't get to touch it again until Friday night or Saturday night. Kids come home tomorrow so no time tomorrow and we're going out of town Saturday morning. But I have to drive to work Friday so I need to see about getting my old dash back in now that it's cured for a couple of days. But that means putting the hvac controls back in it too. So maybe I'll get another coat of filler on the roof panel before that happens. So much damn work to do.

yurvalentine Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 Man I hear that. Just looking at my to do list makes my butthole pucker to about 50%. C'est la vie. I always drag a buddy over to bullshit while I work, makes it go quicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooter99 Posted March 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 Ok guys and gals and dogs and whoever is still watching. I'm going to attempt to do this from my phone, since work has blockedthis site and others with their new system. If it doesn't work, sorry, I'll fix it tonight when I get home. Last night I re-loaded the sub and took it back out to the truck. I didn't touch a thing. Didn't re-set the lpc, didn't touch the ssf, nothing. I literally hooked it back up and played it. I can tell you now, NIGHT AND DAY difference! I can still make it slap a bit, but I feel like I really have to try to do it, and it's usually on lower notes which I can tune with the crossover settings. So, for what I'm going to use it for, I think I'm in really good shape. The next step will be removing the center console, and making a platform for it to sit on face down and see how that sounds. I started thinking about a design last night and I think I'm going to have issues with the port and figuring out where to tune it at. I know my 4th was going to tune in the 45-50 hz range for the 15's, so I'm wondering if I should tune this to the 40-45hz area. I need to figure this out due to the different style of enclosure building I'm going to do isn't just slapping 6 sides together and a port. I've always struggled with ports. I also had to get my repaired dash back in the truck because I have to drive to work tomorrow. So before I did that I wanted to get anot her layer of filler on the roof mount and check the actual controls before I put it back in the dash. Got out the Rage Xtreme. And filled in the whole area pretty much. Did a little bit of sanding around the cut out so I could see the height of the edge and make sure the unit fit good. I must say, I'm pretty happy with the results. Facebook Page: S99Creations 2006 F250 Lariat Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooter99 Posted March 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 Next thing I did was move the vent a little bit more over to the left, and add in the switch panel. I tried to do it without moving the vent, but it just wasn't going to work that way. So, I shifted it about 1/4". That's how I left it last night. I think it'll all work out ok. Lots of body work and sanding ahead of me. I need to fill in some gaps and re-fill the back with kitty hair for reinforcement, then onto the filler and fun. Got a ways to go. Nothing tonight for sure. My kids come home tonight and their plane is already delayed an hour so we probably won't even get home much before 9:00. Hopefully I'll get to work on it tomorrow night. Kind of feeling the pressure on it because I think my double din unit in the truck is trying to crap out on me. I really would rather not go through the expense of another head unit while I have this sitting here. But this also isn't the kind of dash that's the easiest to get out of the truck. I could put it in and say I'm still working on it, but that means a whole lot more work. I'll see how long I can get by with the one that's in there. That's all.
