June 14, 201411 yr Author Popular Post Will I sold the HCCA 15.2's and sent my bc2000's to db-r great service should be getting the amps back sometime next week. Than I going to redo the sub box to fit the 2-18" ethos that I should be getting by the end of June.... Slow build
June 15, 201411 yr Author 2 18" Ethos? KILLER!!You planning on running each off a BC2000?So far the plan is to run them 1ohm each and upgrade to 1/0 OFC and get a couple more diehard batteries and another volt meter
July 8, 201411 yr Author Just got this next to nothing on craiglist for cheap guest I start install my amps tomorrow too
July 8, 201411 yr Just got caught up on your build. Looking great. Can't wait to see what you have planned.
July 8, 201411 yr I used to have a hammer crimp, its ok but watch out for your thumb.I have one brand new in the package still. I also have a 16?ton hydraulic crimper. Boy do I love that thing lol.
July 8, 201411 yr Used a hammer crimper on my suzuki install, have hydraulic one I am using on the Avalanche. either will get the job done. Tuned in for the progress!
July 9, 201411 yr Author Well nothing yet. I want to buy a hydraulic crimper....but I did try these plastic paint spray did not like it. Real hard to peel the tape off once your finish with the stripe, but it gives me a idea on how I want my paint job to be.I also did the front and back bumpers
July 15, 201411 yr Author So today I was working on running an extra run on 1/0 + and running the ground from the battery to the back instead of grounding it in the back so it will be a total of 3 runs of power and 3 runs of ground....so while uninstalling the ground ( under the driver side passenger frame area) I notice that the ground was super corroded just broke right off once I touch it...I guess I should of rubberized that area do to the fact that it would be exposed to moisture...I will post pics once at work ... I'm still learning
July 16, 201411 yr Yah, closed end connectors from now on. CCA doesn't seem to do well at all with the elements to begin with. I'd look to investing in ofc and getting crimp lugs instead. They have the option of solder or Hydro crimping and will not do this.
July 16, 201411 yr Author Yeah that's what I'm going to do sell all my cca 1/0 and out it towards some 2/0 ofc...
July 17, 201411 yr How many winters had that wire been exposed to damn salt? What's up with the Ethos?? Wanna so those things pumpin!

July 17, 201411 yr Author One should be here this or next week no tracking on it yet the other hope by the end of the month.One winter on those wires I'm going to rubberized the next ones I put down there. I need to product to start coming in the mail...Hours at work need to increase bad
July 22, 201411 yr Author Just started wiring up the amps so all I have to do is wire the subs and tune...
July 22, 201411 yr Where are you bringing up the power wire at? I'm trying to figure out how I want to re-wire my tahoe in the future as well.
