Trup's Diesel Mod Thread

[Trupiano]

Thanks! Yeah, I'd like to get the rear sport bumper in white, and have the front bumper painted white along with the grille. But I'll do the suspension and tires first, then AMP steps, then work on the bumpers. I'm not an offroad bumper kind of guy, so I'll just stick to making it look clean.

Speakers are in. Pics in a couple hours after I take a shower. It rained for about 30 mins on me, then the sun came out, and so did the humidity. No bueno!

Both are at the same volume, just different songs.

Wow that's very nice. I've heard of the kicker upgrade before but not that familiar with it...did all of that come as one kit? Do you have a factory sub?

That's awesome!! Great work, it looks like you definitely didn't mess anything up lol. Sounds great, and the song in that second video makes me want to go lift or run a marathon or something haha

No, each speaker set was purchased individually from an ebay company.

Wiring harnesses were from crutchfield:

For the dash speakers: Metra 71-039 Speaker Wiring Adapters Work with select 1990-up vehicles — connect new speakers to factory wiring plugs at Crutchfield.com

For the front/rear doors: Metra 71-049 Speaker Wiring Adapters Work with select 1999-up vehicles — connect new speakers to factory wiring plugs at Crutchfield.com

METRA 82-6901 speaker adapters for the front doors from ebay.

All in all, was about $300. Not too bad!

Yeah I have the factory sub. Before I change that out, I'll get a different deck and an amp. Long ways away though.

Very nice! I've got the Edge and S&B intake..That alone is enough power for now. Someday Egr delete and Diff. covers. I've offhandedly been looking for a tranny pan for the standard. But no luck so far. Also just did the sound system with Jl's
here
Dunno if you've seen that yet it turned out pretty sweet.
Did you get to the undercarriage yet?? I've been thinking of some Plasticote for that...Dunno how it would hold up. but it would look clean.

 

[Trupiano]

Yeah I saw your audio build, LOVE IT!!!

I would love to do something for under the truck. Going to finish off my lift first, then I might think about some kind of protectant.

 

[Noseball]

I gotta pick mine up at the dealership tomorrow. both wheel bearings were shot.
They kinda attributed it to the lift.
After I get it back I'm gonna look into the best **** for the undercarriage.
Backup camera going in this week.
Then got some swirl marks to polish out. After that then they will be close to twins.
Somebody really butchered up my clear with a polisher at some point.

Went mudding through a small trail a couple weeks ago with my buddy John. Nothing too spectacular, but it was fun and the truck acted like it was nothing.
