I have a 16' F350 Diesel Lariat Ultimate. It's quiet inside, actually for what it is it's really quiet. But .. It's not Mercedes Quiet. I've read about the Door Weather Strip Mod, but has anyone done any further Sound Proofing like Dyna Mat or ?? Do you think it would make much of a difference ?
Man my '16 F350 dually is super quiet inside, my wife even asked me when we bought it if it was a diesel. I guess she was used to the old '02 7.3 we had. I've used Dynamat on hot rod bodies but I don't know where you'd put it on a new truck w/o tearing all the seats and carpeting out.
I would think that the best results would come from an insulation type sound deadening versus the dynamat style.
Typically the ROI for the sticky, heavy mat style lessens with complete coverage. The insulation style blocks the sound from traveling through.
Hope that makes sense.
EDIT: The type of product I was thinking of is ensolite. Raammat sells it. I'm not sure if the name is a brand name specific to their product.
Personally I see no reason to take the truck apart for more sound deadening I have a 15 and its nice and quiet for a truck
I agree about the truck being quiet, for a truck. But it's no where near as quiet and solid sounding as my wife's car. Yes I said car. I typically buy a new truck every 2-3 yrs. and don't usually care. But, this one we plan on keeping to carry our Lance Camper and tow the Boat for a while. My truck doesn't have under-hood insulation and when you close the doors they sound empty/hollow. I was just wondering if any of you had done any further sound deadening. I think
for the small investment I'll try some Sound Deadening material plus Dyna Mat or ??
in the Doors, back of the Cab and under the Hood. I'll let ya all know if it's worth it.
