What was his name? :hiding:



I started on a speaker box that will fit over the passenger side wheel well.
I should have it done today and will post pics later.

It's my gf of 2 years , but I want to do a box like your building , gotta link or gonna do a write up?
 
I retired it to weekend worrior, with the purchas of a 02 rav4 with 61000mi as a new daily driver! Let the build begin!

I have to give credit to Limited2K for giving me the inspiration to build my sub box similar to his. I already had the amp, rustoleum "stone finish" spray paint and some 3/4" plywood laying around. I bought a kicker 10" sub from Best Buy for $45.00. I don't know why I didn't do this when I originally bought my truck. I will never buy another sub again, other than Kicker. The sound is amazing. It's not the most perfect thing, but I'm very pleased with the outcome. I need to go to Lowes and find some kind of screening to put on it. Total cubic ft. came out to .88. Now with the pics.

Kenwood Mono amp fits perfectly under drivers seat.


Dry fit in place. I ended up having to cut an angle at the bottom left corner.


Fits nicely along there


Cargo space at the neatest it will ever be. I also went ahead and cut a peice of the plywood and put some legs on it so I had a shelf unit there also.


Icing on the cake

That does look good, but out of curiosity, why build it on that side and cover up the storage area door? Is there a reason it couldn't go on the other side? I've seen several people build them like that now.

No reason at all. That's just what came to me naturally. Im right handed and I just started measuring on the right side I guess. I didn't even consider the left side. I just keep jumper cables and some ratchet ties in the cargo box, so it didn't seem to me that I would need continuous access to it.
It could very easily go on the left side.
 
So I got the TC UCA installed, Taco LBJ, and OTRE installed, and front Diff is out. sprayed everything down with purple power (bad CV boots make a huge mess). Now I have to go to bed. Hopefully tomorrow after work I can get the new front diff with 4.88's and ARB locker back in and get everything back together in the front. lots of work but gonna be sweet:hatsoff:
 
Changed my wiper blades and fabbed up some Hi-Lift mounts in the back of the truck.

Pictures? Mounts as in to use the hi lift on the truck?
I bought one as well. Realizing without sliders there isnt anywhere to jack up from haha

Pics to follow, won't be able to get some (pics) until Thursday. They are to mount the jack on the floor of the truck just inside the back door. Yeah, Hi Lift wont do you much good without aftermarket sliders or bumpers. You could buy one of these Lift-Mate to give you something to work with though.
