    Hey Man!! Thanks. I will post the next part here as well. My helper was more like enjoying the sunny weather and having a blast outside with the family xD. Definitely, good memories for everyone. It was a good DIY project and I got to know the truck a lot more.

    Nice, what type of sound deadening material was that? Any idea where it was bought from?
    ?

    It is waterproof dampening paper that is used to keep the sound inside rather than leak to the outside. so when I am in the car with doors closed and windows up, you can tell that the car is playing music but not from a block away. If I want to play music while i am outside i can just lower the windows or open the doors :).

    He bought it @homedepot

    I'd definitely recommend you add it. It also avoids the vibration on the doors so you don't have a buzzing car when are listening to the music super loud. Good luck with the installation. Remember to take your time and don't rush through things. I hope the vids and pics help and let me know if you need any help! I will ask my uncle if I don't have the answer.

    Will do, Currently waiting on the stock of after market head units to catch up so i can pick up a new radio. The fires over seas messed up a lot of the chip manufacturing companies so thats my main delay. I'll probably take a weekend and go ahead and do my sound deadening ahead of time until i pick up my radio and amp.

    That is a good idea. That would save you about 2 hours of installation. and if you are like me putting this together outside, daylight is very inportant!

    Definitely, luckily I will have a shop to use for whenever we do it but natural daylight definitely helps

    If we had a shop we might have continued all night and go to bed after finishing lol xD.
    Looking forward to seeing some pictures from your build.
