    System looks good. Nice and clean. Glad all my recommendations panned out for and that the sub box is getting some use. Any issues with the install?

    Awesome man! As far as the crossovers I thought about mounting them in the dash but ending up just zip tieing them in the door out the way.

    get that cb installed! got plans to reroute mine with an external speaker and relocate the cb under my single din headunit. and working on/deciding on some sliders. same as you though, no monie for modz! :eek: so much to do though.

    va traffic always sucks, everyday, never fails. esp up in your neck of the woods. only way i go up north is if the girlfriend says shell drive and drive her car, since she works up there and knows the area better anyways. kinda funny though, the few times weve taken my truck people arent as "aggresive" when they see my truck coming vs her camry :laugh:

    I dont have a issue with aggressive drivers either, if im in va im in my truck, my gf wont even try to drive her car into va. I just have the non stop traffic no matter where you go

    i can come up any weekend man, if you need help with anything, only thing idk how to do is the SWR meter to tune it. but install is a breeze once you figure out where all the wires needa go

    :laugh: i guess since most of them are rich DBs driving cars so they see a jacked up truck coming and get scared.

    well like i said i NEVER mind driving my truck :D running the wires though doesnt take long, i guess depending on where you mount your cb, mine was really really easy, only reason my install took so long was because i had never done it before and not really good with FINDING grounds, now if you tell me "ground it to this" i can do it, no problem

    Alright, few things have changed in my plans to move so I can kinda turn my attention back to my truck :D

    Been noticing all of my terra grapplers are dry rotting and cracking in between the tread :confused:. Searched for a bit and couldnt come up with anyone really having this issue so I am just gonna look for a new set of tires. Gonna try the nitto trail grapplers for sure, awhile back when i looked, they only came in 295/70r17 but looking now I see they come in 285/70r17 (like i run now)

    Any input on which size i should get?

    when i worked for goodyear, we had that problem on one of the brands and it was a defect. take it in to who deals with your tires and see what they have to say. can't hurt. the way goodyear handled it was they would pro-rate the bad tires based on how much tread was left on the tire. could be some cash towards the next set...

    I like the size I have now, its not a 33 tho, it measured new at 32 5/8". the trail grappler in a 285/70r17 on nitto measures 33.15" and the 295/70r17 measures 33.54 so either size will be a little upgrade.

    yeah yeah, the price difference between a 285 and 295 is only $15, I rub very little now, I just dont feel like hacking away to fit a bigger tire,

    Im also just lazy.. :D

    Thanks for the info, I would give that a shot but i got my tires through 4wheelparts years ago, i got about 40k on them so far so im not mad, I believe they will last another 10-20k. I just want a more agressive tire now :cool:
