2000LaDe Posted August 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 You know, normally I would say 1/8th in steel for roof bracing is retarded and not needed for a daily driver.... But in your case, Hank, I'll make an exception. LoL layer of 1/2" x 2" tube steel welded across first then a layer of 1/8" plate steel on top of that. then from left to right i will also have 3 more pieces of tube steel acting as the old roof brace. then fill the void above it all and sound deaden it then place the headliner back up. should be good for my roof. next is figuring something out for my rear doors. possibly using plate steel on all 4 doors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sub2weeker Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 so theres one layer of steel done i have a headliner ready to be put up and welded thats 1/8" thick steel plate. i will still be able to put my headliner back up. i will fill the void between the steel and roof with expanding foam. WOOT hopes for a gain now that bracing right there will put you in the 60s. easily! r you gonna run a center brace from the roof to the floor as well? and i watched the videos and i bet this thing plays loud all day! this is spam imo, its not allowed here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2000LaDe Posted August 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 needless to say this thing seems to move ALOT more air now with this up there. i still have alot of work to do before i put it back together but man im stoked. it sounds ALOT better not having the roof flopping in your ear when you are listening to music. once i deaden it and get the cracks welded up then filled with foam i think its gonna sound nice.

EricR Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 Good work i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?
