XPOTRPR build & BS

I have a set of Morels awaiting installation in my other vehicle. They are suppose to sound amazing! Let me know what you think after feeding it some real (non-deck) power !

 

that's what I've heard and read as well! I think Colby is excited to hear them too.. lol this M5 amp should push them nicely. might even be able to push the Sundown 10 a bit more too. although, I think the box is going to go soon after that.

 

You're more than welcome.

Now get that shit installed already! I want to hear those speakers.

 

I'm anxiously waiting to get off work and start!

I was thinking about the tweeters in the rear doors last night laying in bed.. I think I have everything I need to make it pretty clean between the 2 kits.. I may just need to figure out the mount that's inside the door panel to hold the tweeter. Also need to sound deaden more.. forgot how much deadener I had still.

 

Better do it today before the rain comes tomorrow

 

Oh I know. That's part of why it's been taking me forever to install them. Intermittent rain has been shitty for that. Lol

 

I have a bunch of parts laying around too. Pretty sure we can make something work.

 

sweet! My main focus is the front and amp these next couple days. I can always come back to the rears later.

 

Slacking on some updates. Stereo has been all finished up for awhile and sounding great. Added some sound deadening to the front doors while I was at it, I'm not sure why I waited so long.. massive improvement. Everything sounds great and its essentially an entirely new system. Also, Finally got the cameras wired in and working how I want with the truck. Now I have 2 front facing, one being in the digital rearview mirror whioch records and acts as a dashcam, and the other is mounted on the front bumper pointed down and out to be able to see trail obstacles and over rises/peaks, etc. That front facing is wired into my Headunit and I can toggle it on at anytime. The 2 rear facing cameras are the one included with the digital rearview mirror that is mounted up high on the back of the Super Pacific and records as well and the second one is low on the rear bumper under my spare and jerry can mount. That one is triggered to come onto the headunit when put into reverse. Now I have a fulltime rearview image that is a general overall/wide view.. and a view dedicated to reverse and I'm able to view both at the same time. Also did a balance and rotation on the Taco as well as some other little maintenance items.

and some recent pics of camping and stuffz..

Wish my shitbox was workin…

 

Updated first post plus some photos of recent shenanigans..



















Also, rebuilt the front end again and cycled to check clearance and bump height. Swapped back to 650# coils, adjusted bump stop height, fresh rod end hardware, fresh CVs and outer tierods, cleaned up the resi's and shock bodies, etc. Lowered ride height some as well. Much better now.. a couple more little tweaks to the front and I'm content with it. then to adjust the rear to match.









clears everything, while turning as well, and maxes out at/on the inner fender. Bumpstops are set to stop up travel right before contact.

 

Hey how are you liking your rear view camera up high ?

 

I like it a lot actually. I do have my factory backup camera still as well, but I relocated it to the bumper and is triggered to come on with Reverse and displays on my headunit. Backing up visibility was a little tough with just the rearview camera and its view from up high, above the tire, etc. Couldnt get a good judge of depth. Now, with both cameras I can fully see everything behind me. For the general purpose mirror/view behind me.. the camera works great being up that high.

 

Awesome thanks!

 

Did you buy a set of coils for the swap? I think I have atleast 2 sets here at the hoist you could have had. Hell one might be yours

 

I had a set of 650s sitting at the house.. honestly .. you might have my old 600s. Haha.

 

Eyyyy! Glad to be a part of the shenanigans!

 

more to come brotha!

 

Yeah I think I do. I think I have some 650s as well. Gonna have to clean out the garage and start getting rid of some shit

 

Same.. lol half my cabinets are a catch-all for all the years of shit.
