Looks good :drink40: , do you think the grills will be in the way of the subs when they have a good amount of excursion?

Thanks! I have been working on this thing for a long time not exactly how i wanted it but not bad for my first system and first time with fiberglass.

not sure about the grills i took them off and tested with out a minute ago but didn't go to full power

gonna go to where i work later and let it go full tilt and check on the excursion-

if they dont work i am gonna leave them on while i drive if i have stuff in the back seat and if i want to blast them just pop the grills right off just takes a minute to pop them off with my panel tool

ill try to post a video tomorrow- of how it works but it will be from my droid so crappy quality

Depends on which droid you have!!! I have the new HTC EVO and the video on it is AWESOME!!! Pictures are great also, i use it more than my regular camera.

Back on topic, looks nice man, turned out really well.

The fit of the box looks good. Should sound great!

I like the choice of rims, they are going to look great!!!! :fing34:

How did the grills Jroadtatts recommend work out clearance wise?

Vids?

The build looks great.

i am pretty sure the subs hit the grills on full tilt or the grill mesh is so tight together that maybe i am just hearing air noise

but when i am doing demos i just pop the grills off and it does fine takes 5 seconds defiantly worth it for protection

i have been thinking hard about changing my box but if/when i do i am gonna get rings made that fit over the sub mounting ring 1/4" to 1/2" thick and then mount these rings on them then put the grills on and i should be good-

2nd person that asked me for a vid tonight guess i will just have to make one tomorrow sometime

also i wish i took before and after pics when i got my truck lifted up but i need to post pics of my truck lifted also

keep looking back for the vid and i should have my wheels and new rubbers on this week coming up also :woot:

Ya took forever to find something that would work on the truck that not everybody already has- hopefully they will work out if so they will be the first frontier i know of with them

Looks good man.

Thanks man. I cant wait to get a demo of yours. mine is like a toy system compared to yours.

If ya need help this weekend let me know i cant go Saturday just got invited to go dove hunting out in Cades,SC and supposedly there where 300 sitting on the power lane today so i cant let this opportunity go by but if ya need help Sunday let me know i can stay out in Hemingway Saturday night so i only have about a 1 hr drive to flo town

Can't believe I missed this thread. Just read up on the whole thing. Awsome work bro! Build looks great. I love these 8's. Can't wait for income tax so I can order mine. Definately tuned in for the vid.

BTW, those are some badass rims you got there. :drink40:
