2010 Tahoe Build

[Ryan1126]

Found out today that my alternator isnt going to hook up into my truck due to the plugs being different.... but i got battery number one installed and 2 of the 3 grounds changed to 1/0 ( the engine block to chassis still needs to be done) and i got my volt meter and switch installed.

Got the second battery in today, just waiting for the plug from Singer so i can get the alt in and then the fun starts. Also got the new front emblem on. Shes gettin there!

one of the fans died, and another started making an annoying squealing noise. so im over this amp rack, ripped it out today and already built the new false floor.

messyyyy



cleaned it all up!


New floor is in




carpeted, finished.




This will also allow for my box to sit under the window line, which i prefer. I have roughly 10 inches behind the box and the back of the seats to design a wedge type deal to mount my amps to, this will allow me to be able to easily access my amps for tuning, something i didn't keep in mind when building my last floor.

I'm having issues designing this wedge without coming out with 32nd and 64th cuts.... I may be over thinking it but i cant figure out this damn angle.

Very interesting build!! How long have you been building systems?

 

[Ryan1126]

since i got my first truck when i was 17, had a makeshift system in it, and it looked like crap so i forced myself to learn about it to clean it all up, been a slippery slope since then, once i heard clean bass i was hooked. i love anything 12volt related, and it helps that i love wood working.

The new amp rack is done! gonna start rewiring everything tomorrow down opposite sides of the truck since i ended up with some whining in my speakers. Box is almost finished also.

i put her back on the 26's since riding season is over for me and i wont be towing the toy box anymore till next season.


started building the rack

I know you don't wanna mess with ride height since you use your other wheel/tire combo for riding season but those 26's would be even better with a drop installed

trust me i know...i make fun of people all day long for wheel gap, but i just cant simply change the truck that drastically since i switch back and forth between wheels quite frequent.
