...Go get ur Maz that sat at a shop for over a year.
Yessirs. I am more excited NOW about this truck than I ever have been.
Why? Must you ask?
BECAUSE ITS HERE!!! NOT 2 HOURS AWAY!!!!
I had brought it to a friend's shop last summer, and he was gonna do the install of the 13b for me, and all he got done was the mounting of it. SO...i decided I want to finish everything else. She needs SUPERIOR work to be drivable. BUT...nothing I dont think I cant handle. The engine and tanny are IN and not moving. Everything else is electrical.
So, with that being said...I will work on my baby as soon as I got days off. 1st thing is to drop in my new key/lock/switch set. After that I gotta move all the spare parts around, and get em out of the cab. Once I get all the junk removed, I will work on the electrical stuff.
Once I get that engine to start...I will then worry about the drive train.
After the test drives...or 100mi or so...I will tackle the static drop.
The sound system will come after the truck is hammered, or during, if I put the baby notch in. I will have to cut the bed and the cab. Really need the holes to be PERFECTLY aligned. (how the hell do I cut a cab AND bed at the same time?) I guess what I will do is cut the bed, while the it is still there, and then mark the backside of the cab with the hole as the rough measurement. IDK.
THEN comes the box build. OMG this will be fun. 4 CVX 12s in the bed, wired to .5 ohm on a 16v electrical system. Yeah, my 2100 HCCA will love me, however, my ears and chest will NOT.
So, if u dunno, I am very happy to have my baby back. Just need to replace the parts that were removed from my 'parts truck'. lol. Then the fun can begin.

On the cutting part, a friend of mine used a circular saw w/the metal cutting blade to cut through both the cab and bed at the same time. It came out pretty good. had two 12in P3://i319.photobucket.com/albums/mm470/Baggd/m_0b6f70b8c573ac702a6d8e8a58ec47991.jpgThen I went with 4 12s (Rockford Fosgate P3s) 's my cousin in the background. was my box w/the 4 subs in it. was loud Then I sold everything and baggd it Hope the pics help.
