Take your fenders off

 

Just an apline type r 12 on a hifonics 1000.1d, box is 2.2 cubes tuned to I believe 31 or 32hz. It gets down... loud enough to make the windshield wipers do a little dance. so it makes me happy, and people put up their windows thinking it will stop the bass... so that makes me laugh.
I am going to be putting components in the kicks on another amp, but priorities right now LOL
what are you working with?


Side note, was driving around, and noticed when I hit bumps, the passenger light vibrates a bit, its even more noticeable now with HID's. I think I already figured out the problem (the trim ring that holds the light in place is giving the housing some forward and backwards movement. so some simple adjustments will fix it.

 

Lol would still probably rub.

 

Hate to tell you this ... but I think that's the problem. The factory puts just enough crap grease in there to keep the needles from spilling out everywhere. I think your gonna have to be doing that one twice .... Those things live on a good synthetic grease. The stuff they use at the factory I wouldn't even use to lube a door lock cylinder.

Throw the truck in neutral and check for any play at the front, then at the rear one. The slightest bit of movement will be felt starting around 40 - 45 mph and get worse the faster you go.

 

Yea. im kinda kicking myself about it. At least the gm nylon is burned out now. All i need is a hammer and a pick. lol

 

put my new rear shocks on, suspension work is done

 

A pair of 12in Kicker CompVR's with a Memphis Amp running at 1ohm, Infinity Kappa 6x9s in back and 6.5in Kappa's up front with a Clarion Deck.









I had a pair of 10in Type R's. Sound quality is amazing but the Kicker's just f'N THUMP!!! I wanna try the Infinity Kappa 12 inch subs. Never heard them myself but they get great reviews and look well built.

 

Began the process of trimming back my bumper to stop the rubbing of my tires

 

well,spent the last 5 hours (yes i said 5) replacing that u joint. Even tried turning the rear shaft 180 to see if it was a balance issue. Still vibrates really bad. put the truck up on jacks and got it up to 80 mph. Looked at the driveline and the rear shaft is shaking,and i have a jet roar on and off in the rear... I also noticed i lost my wheel weights on my driverside rear tire. looks to be a decent size. maybe a ounce. Im sure thats contributing.

So a balance,and a rear end to come. $0 in my pocket. Great.

 

Get out and work them streets....
