Team Street Shakers BJ 4 IA Warden explorer build

Recommended Posts

This truck with this setup made its debut at Scrapin the Coast in Biloxi. We started on this truck on the friday before STC, and finished it thursday night at 11 and left for biloxi at noon on friday. We werent sure if it would make it but we got it done. It still has a long way to go but it was good enough to make the trip.

2001 Ford Explorer Sport

4 Inriminator Audio Warden 15's

2 Incriminator Audio 40.1 amps

5 XS Power D3100 batteries

250 amp Ohio Generator alt

Complete enclosure built out of 13 ply baltic birch

I snapped some pics as we were building. Probably could have gotten more but this is it. We will continue to work on this truck so more pics will come eventually but im going to go ahead and show what I have so far. Just to clear this up, this is not my truck. This truck belongs to BJ Smith of Team Street Shakers. I just built it along with BJ and an old IA competitor William "Mr. NO WALL" Collier.

Had to brace the roof because the previous setups had wreaked havoc on the roof. All braces had broke and fell out and the roof had rips in about 10 places.

Once the roof was repaired and bracing was added we used Line-x on the roof because of cosmetics and because it acts somewhat like sound dampener.

This setup is just the beginning. We are eventually going to have a dual alt setup. 4 IA 40.1's and 16 volt batteries. It currently has 8 selenium 6" mids and 6 eminence APT-80 tweeters with 12 selenium horns. The mids and highs are bout to change to 12 eminator 8's, 12 eminator 6.5's, and 12 eminence tweeters. This too will be added to once new door panels and new center console get done. Thats all the pics I have for now but this was just in 6 days. Hopefully after a little rest we can get back on it and really bring this truck to life.

I like it! I'm eager to see what this thing will really do with some more elbow grease. Should definitely be something special.

Just don't forget to read my post about Newton's Law of Motion on the guy with the 3 DP 21's. LMAO!!
