Posted November 4, 200816 yr Figured I would post this here too as I'm using a couple SSA vendor products. Bringing it back for the sealed guys. Might be a while to get this one finished up but hoping I can get it done in decent time.Going with 4 AA Havoc 15's in a sealed 10 cubic foot Fisher Customs box. Hopefully Chris or BJ can chime in with a sketchup of the box.Power will be from an American Bass 500.1 running at .5ohm. Electrical I am adding 3 powermaster d3100's, a second positive run of 1/0 and two negative 1/0 runs. Already have one run of positive, a yellowtop, and a 200amp meangreen alt installed. Frontstage (already installed) is some boston pro's on a kicker zx550.2 in sealed/damped/overkilled doors.Here is a pic of where the batteries will be going. Thursday the shop that built the existing metal frame for me is going to make some mounts to secure the d3100's in the frame. I have room to add a 4th battery but I don't think I will need it and 240lbs of battery is already enough weight added.And the amp And I have 4 of these waiting going in:And here's what its all going in:
November 4, 200816 yr Very nice, is the enclosure going behind the batteries? or are you making a a frame and mounting it over top?I am not a ford fan but thats a nice looking truck.
November 4, 200816 yr Author The enclosure is going over the batteries with the woofers firing up. The box is only 17.25" tall so it will still be well below the window line. It will all go in easy, how I make it look "pretty" will be another challenge...hahaNever been a ford fan either but somehow my last two vehicles have been fords...my family has disowned me because of it Edited November 4, 200816 yr by duece212

November 4, 200816 yr Author that is a tight truck, and a sweet picture!do you happen to be on f150online?Gotta love roads in the middle of nowhere for pic opportunities I do post on f150online. I actually put the Fisher/Sundown raffle for Kyle Hicks over there yesterday. I see you have a scion but if you post over there please feel free to bump that thread:http://www.f150online.com/forums/general-d...kyle-hicks.htmlAnd since you have a Xb here is a fun pic of my truck Edited November 4, 200816 yr by duece212
November 5, 200816 yr Author just bumped it over there. i might have to put that up on my scion forum tooRight on man
November 8, 200816 yr Author Well the good news is the batts are in and mounted solid, the upper frame is done, unfortunately I over estimated my installed height of the batts though so now I'm going to have to do some changing on the box design. Nothing major just an inch here and there. I'm sure Chris and BJ are tired of me changing stuff by now Anyway here are some pics of the batts mounted down and where the amps are going to go (ab500.1 and kicker zx550.2). I need to make some mounting tabs for them but should be quick and easy. May leave the sides of the frame open for cooling or may board them up and run fans if necessary, not sure yet. Will also have to add a support brace in the middle of the top piece of the frame:
November 8, 200816 yr Author thats really nice man!u have some skill with metal!I wish I could say thats my skill but its a local 4x4/fab shop that built that frame in the back. I could have built it but it wouldn't have turned out anywhere near as nice. The frame is nice and square for boarding up and bolts into existing locations from the back seat so I didn't have to tear up the truck.
November 11, 200816 yr What brand of power wire you have laying there in that picture? Edited November 11, 200816 yr by holley2346
November 11, 200816 yr Author What brand of power wire you have laying there in that picture?Its knukonceptz fleks cable. With the live.com rebate gig goin on ebay right now its not too bad a price. Just picked some more up for 2.80/ft shipped.Basically the same as kicker hyperflex, big and flexible

November 17, 200816 yr Author duece. YOu better do a dam 150!!!! lolits Tom btwNo 50's in my future, my stuff is always quiet :/come on with some updates Hopefully I will get some wire ran in the next few days. The weather is supposed to be nice so might have to take some time offa work to take advantage of it. Sucks that I can't fit the truck in the garage to work on it when its cold.
