This is a question I was curious about... I know there are recones for the btl. The question I have, is do they come as a kit (including glue, shims, etc.)? If not, what glue do you guys recommend for gluing the surround, and dustcap? Also, is there some type of special gap tool, or shim that you recommend for correctly centering the vc in the gap? thanks

Comes with everything but glue, we learned to not send out CA clue because people were complaining that it was turning white when they shot it with too much accelerator and they had a big ugly looking glue 'swipe' on the cone when they slid the dustcap around on it when they didn't put it in the right spot when they laid it on the cone .

Other then that it comes with everything you need, shims, new dustcap etc.

The 5 minute epoxy that Loc-tite (spelling?) makes that comes in a red and blue push tube is what we recommend using, it takes about 1.5 tubes to do a whole sub dustcap and all.

should sticky all info like this and prices on recones and all that other stuff. when you get time and all...

thanks nick! just out of curiosity, what do you guys use for glue when putting subs together, or reconing (in the factory)? is it a special company blend? also, what are the shims made out of (never seen one before)? thanks

Rubberized CA glue is all it is, shim isnt anything more then a little piece of plastic...if i had batteries i'd snap a picture of one for you but i dont have any for my camera.
