FINALLY !!! My Dash Pad is here !!! It should only take a couple days to settle, but MAN, this thing makes my dash look SOOO Sweet !!! Actually makes the stock tweeters sound better ...

Think I'm going to give this a try. The Brutal Sounds Big Brute 15" driver. http://brutalsounds.net/product-category/subwoofers/15-inch-subwoofers/ Heard a pair the other day and was really impressed. I knew who built the enclosure so I knew it was mathematically correct. Unfortunately, I wasn't as impressed with the Amplifier but I believe I can make some real improvements with my Amplifier. The Linear Power 2150 http://linearpower.com/LP2150.html Actually, the man had me a driver ready to go. Guess he wasn't taking no for an answer ... LOL Should be fairly easy to tune and give me that "little something extra" I'm looking for !!! Brutal Sounds just sent me the specs on this driver so I can start running numbers !!!

Yes, Better. Nice Blazer !!!

A friend of mine was delivering a vehicle to the local junkyard Friday and found something for me ... A State Trooper Tahoe. Said under the hood was untouched !!! Should be plenty of fun parts for me under that hood !!! He told Mr. Dixon (same guy the found the Dually fenders for my GMT400) that I was interested with it and he said no one will touch it until after I get what I need. Wish me luck !!!

Welcome

Can't see the pic.

You have got to be Shitting me !!! Look What I just found !!! Dually Fenders for the Green Dickle !!! And a party bonus !!! I got the wheel covers and mud flaps too !!! I'm fucking Stoked with this !!! I know, their not perfect, but there's nothing that we cant get fixed with Fiberglass and Paint. I need the practice for all the work that's going to be done to the Avalanche.

I know, I have a LONG way to go before ever worrying about a sub stage, but I just couldn't resist measuring things out to see what I might can work up. Almost wish I could start cutting wood !!!

I thought you had the newer model Kenwood ?? Not much room behind those radios is there ??? Got to go back in and hook up my Kenwood rear camera (just came in today) and run my RCAs.

My Son hooked me up with a Vid !!!

OK, test fitting everything and giving her a spin with none other than the AMAZING Samantha Fish !!! OK, got my work done and the final touches to the head unit and everything work great !!! Even my steering wheel controls !!! Sweet and Simple !!!

Getting closer to our "Phantom" goal !!!

Ah yes. Nice and Stealthy !!!

Thank You Guys !!! Just waiting on my Rear Camera from Kenwood. We can install it later if need be, but I really hope it gets hare before Saturday.

This is my Daily Driver. According to the F-150 forums, I got a sweet deal on her. These pics were taken the day (night at the car wash) I brought her home.

These are the Amplifiers that will be run in this Vehicle (I have a pair) ... http://linearpower.com/LP2150.html Mine are Prototypes so some specs may be different as listed. Also, modifications have been done since being built. Small footprint Amplifier(s) will fit nicely under the seats of this vehicle. This is not the actual placement, just thinking how sexy those "plum crazy" purple amplifiers look in this vehicle !!! Can't wait to start running wires !!!

She's Branded !!!

Hmmm ... No metal to cut to install subs, Nice !!! Been a LONG time since I've ran a large cone area sub bass driver ... possibilities are endless here !!! Ideas have been rushing through my head with this vehicle. Now you see why I've been wanting an Avalanche !!!

Interior is MINT !!! Ordered my Dash Pad, Console Head Unit mounting Kit, the "all bells and Whistles" wiring harness kit for my Kenwood dnx9980hd head unit, and a back up camera (from Kenwood). Once all that's installed, then we will start on wiring and speaker placement options. One thing I can say about the current stock setup is those Bose Tweeters SUCK !!! LOL

Seriously, this vehicle is a blank canvas waiting for Audio / Video upgrades !!! Completely Stock under the hood. Should have no problems dressing up stock wires, upgrade to a pair of batteries, and a VERY Stealthy Sound Quality style wiring setup under the hood. Thinking while I'm working under the hood, See if I can throw in a Cold Air System upgrade. This is going to be fun !!!

I definitely understand. My 97 Chevy was WAY more dependable than this 02 Ford. This 07 Avalanche seems to be WAY more vehicle than those two trucks put together. I pray I have good luck with it. As far a upgrades (other than stereo) will most likely be a cat back exhaust, cold air setup, and hopefully wheels and tires. Yes Sir, those doors look promising !!! Also, this thing will be perfect for a single 15" driver setup without cutting metal !!! Been a LONG time since I've had a large cone area bass setup. Can't wait to see what the measuring tape has to say !!!

Fords As for work trucks, I love them. But for Daily drivers, Not so much. Seriously, this one is a money pit. And to be truly honest, I'm a Chevy Guy. With that being said, Every thing Car Audio is coming out and this truck will be sold once the latest shit that's tearing up is fixed. Still a very nice truck, just not for me. Also, I found something I've wanted for a LONG time. and I bought one. A Chevy Avalanche !!! I will be starting a new thread on this ASAP. Hope You guys Enjoy it as much as I plan to have fun Building it !!! Stay Tuned !!!

Awesome vid Mark.

Oh dang bro, ain’t seen nothing like that. Sorry I wasn’t much help.
