01Tac0ma Build

you told me 6 weeks yesterday

 

Yeah what the hell. You told me 6 weeks too

 

Yeh I know, I talked to Chris today though ( head foreman ) & he said we have another week and a half and then goto Minnesota for 1-2 weeks... Then I should be home.. But I figured out the latches for the tewb doors today

 

Well you can make a prototype set and I guess if I have too ill take them for free

 

Ah no need for prototypes.. They'll be going on my truck first thing! I got it all figured out on paper, will have to see why happens when I actually start bending

 

Hey man how did you build your subwoofer box? Is there a DIY guide on here or do you have any tips? Thanks

 

I actually just unbolted the metal shelf back there and cut the center out leavin the bolt holes then fiberglassed a box around the edges of it so it's bolt in and can be removed... I did a half assed write up on here, I'll look for it and send you the link otherwise I may just go on and make a full on write up for it!

I will say it's an awesome setup and I will build another one for the other side but the space is very very limited at only abt .4cu^ do the best I've found for it is a 8" alpine type R. May be others tht work good too but there's also only abt 5" of mounting depth..

 

I think this build gets worse every time I see it

ok great! if you find the write up please PM me. I have a 12inch alpine type r that i wanted to sell but no one is in the market to buy a sub so i guess its going in the taco lol. Its in a huge box now that doesnt fit in my xtra cab.
How does it sound though? No rattles?

 

You two :jelly: fagots can GTFO!!
If its so gay then why do you keep coming back and hanging out in it...

As for the sub box, it sounds amazing IMO! I've only run a type s 10 on an mrp500 which is perfect power wise but the space is limiting the sub.. So I have a type r 8 on the way and it should handle it just fine! The type s does really well on certain songs with the lows and rattles my mirrors.. But I think the 8 overall will sound better and like I said I'll probably build another box on the otherside as well! & I didn't look for the write up but send madjik_man a pm and see if he has the one I wrote a long time ago for him still, other wise when I'm sitting around at the hotel I'll try to do a write up on my phone, don't know how well that will work but I'll try it for you

 

Any pictures of how you mounted the lights behind the grille?

 

Here ya go man, simple piece of aluminum angle and you have to modify the mounts on the lights

 

Oh i see, you hung the lights upside down, very nice!

 

This build....

 

Yea man! & it also makes for a nice platform to put your ballast since I converted both sets of my lights to hid

 

Thanks fucker! You'll be jelly soon enough im coming home July 1st at latest so be ready to make a trip up for sliders!

 

Thanks Ben!
It still yet has a loong ways to go! But when I get back home off this job up north there shall be quite a few new additions!

 

Oh yea, pretty stoked to get home and start working on it again! Still slowly getting parts for SAS too
