It's getting closer.

I ran the power wire into the bed



Then Jack came over and help me add some weight to the truck :lol:





And here's the money shot :lol: :lol: :lol:









Took some measurements for the battery boxes . Once I mount those then it on to the amps.

First off,

Excellent job on the design & installation. Being able to not only visualize something of this magnitude but also being able to execute it is true talent.

This is not meant in any way as a criticism, but does anyone else cringe just a little when they see a nice vehicle like this that gets heavily modified from it's orginal form (and intent)?

Stilll---I mean no disrespect as I think it is a fantastic install.

Thanks!

I still cringe looking at it A little part of says that I have gone off the deep end. My rational is that I still have a work truck to haul, It's just the wife's grocery getter, and it's nothing more then a welder and some duct tape to fix it

Ahh no problem.

I'm sure If I posted some pics up in the SuperDuty section .......

It's funny how people can be closed minded to some ideas. I learned that when I put 16 12's in the back of my Excursion and posted up some pics

Ok here it is. I finished it up around 11pm Friday night. Gained matched the amps at the show just to have one not work pulling into the lanes. She did a 141.2 and ended up playing in the 139 Bassrace class with 1 sub doing a 139.6

Today was different I swapped out the bad amp and did

It burped a 149.8 at 30HZ

Then I did streetBeat 4 and pulled a 149.7

Then did a 159.8 in the port at 27HZ

I think with a little tweeking of the system It will give the X a run for it's money and then some

Here's the few pics I took on the last day push to finish it.

Now the build is far from over. As soon as the CFO says ok I will be ordering 4 Stetom amps and 2 DC LVL 5 18's. Then I can clean up the back of the truck.
