so before my blazer is mechanically put back together, I have already started my next project. I ripped ou tthe dash (literally), completed the heat/AC delete and am planning my custom dash build. The 4 8" subwoofers I have been trying to find a good spot to install, will be upfiring across the dash. Basically the dash will be a big subwoofer enclosure that just so happens to have gauges and a spot for the radio. Pictures to follow ofcourse.

That is looking very very nice, my friend.

I love that roof rack! What brand? I was looking at similar Thule/Yakima racks but those cost $800

I forget the name of it but it only cost like $120. Works great for carrying the spare tire. that is the only reason why I wanted it. it is very sturdy 2 piece design and came with the mounting brackets. I will look for the receipt and post up the link when I do.
