Well I already have the speakers soooo, I need to go to the yard and retrieve a window. While there, can i grab the speaker bracket and will it work with my 3.5?
Alright thanks for the info. I have yet another question. I got my dash pulled today and when looking at the speaker holes, do I need a special adapter bracket for the 3.5's ?
Hey guys, well I needed to take care of some important issues on the truck before I install the stereo such as the passenger side inner fender so rotted out I'm suprised I still have both my batteries lol, and my missing driverside window. So I'm taking care of that all now and hope to have the...
alright guys thanks for all the juicy info. Well the subs are mounted in their enclosures and wired up. Thats about all I got around to today unfortunately. Tomorrow hopefully my goal is to have it all mounted and installed. Thank you all for the help. oh yea and the subs are kickers and the 3.5...
oh ok, no I don't have a db meter on hand. Or wait I have an idea. I just bought an iphone app that works as a db meter. It has good review and people state its pretty accurate when I go to work on the truck today and drive it I'll take some readings for you ok?
I'm really not quite sure what your are asking. My m1008 is not loud in my opinion. My dodge dakota was louder then it and I could hear the stock radio fine. I'm not putting in such large subs because I'm too lazy to dynamat the entire thing I'm doing for the fun aspect of having some powerful subs.
Alright well thanks BadMastard, I already ordered everything so I'm running with the 2 10's for now. I figured i will utterly drown out the dash speakers but I'd like to start with them for now and then add the doors as funds become available. Well the wiring kit I received came with 16gauge...
Hey guys heres an update, well school is officially out for summer and I came back home from a friends wedding to boxes full of goodies. I'm getting ready to drop the subs in the enclosures and now am concerned on whether or not I have low enough gauge speaker wire for the subs. the wiring kit I...
Thanks for all the great info guys. So I think I'm pretty much ready to order everything. I don't need a headset in my truck its pretty quiet compared to most cucvs I've heard. Besides I'm putting in 800w worth of subs for a reason :)
lol boy do I feel retarded. Alright guys thanks for the info. looks like I have my list with everything I'll need then. If I were to add some decent mid range speakers where do you think they should go? Just in the doors or?
Alright guys thanks for the tips. Here is a link to the head unit I was going to use. I was confused with how it gives power ratings but yet all i see is the RCA jacks.
Dual XDMA6415 In-Dash CD, MP3 Receiver with Remote, Built-in

Oh...
Hey guys, well with summer coming up I'm excited that I'll finally be able to get all my work done on my m1008. One of those things is going to be a sound system install. I have just about NO experience in car audio so I figured I'd bounce my plan off you guys to see what you think about it...
Yea, well I think I'm going to just order the weatherstripping. Turns out lmc has a bundle that is the entire window channel kit and window seal kit for $100. Lol, who wants to come to the yard with me for a window.
Hey guys, well after my last offroad adventure I lost a window. I got out of the truck shut the door, and heard the sound of shattering glass. While working on the door I see that all the weatherstripping is shot. I'm debating whether or not its even worth to do it. We have a ton of old chevs at...
Yeah we had a great time. I am definitely looking forward to the fall rally. Everyone there was friendly and we had a great time hanging out, checking each others rigs, and of course doing some wheeling! :driver: I'll try to scrounge up whatever pics we took.
