Yes I do, I bought it off amazon for $15. I have it wired to a switch instead of the reverse because I don't always use it, and it is nice to be able to use it when the truck isn't in reverse.:)

I built a new subwoofer box today, 3/4" MDF.

60" wide X 18" deep X 14" tall. 6 cubic feet, ported with 3 4" X 11" PVC pipes. One layer of R13 fiberglass insulation along the bottom.

I was using 2 10" Rockford Fosgate HX2 subwoofers on a 40amp (500watts RMS) Kenwood amplifier. About a week ago on a whim I bought 2 12" Dual SD12 subwoofers from walmart to put in a box in the house hooked up to the stereo. They slam pretty hard for a $30 speaker! :D So, I bought 2 more and took the 2 out of the house and put them in my truck. Shit bangs in the ported box with only 500 watts. I'd like to get a new amp for a full 700 watts RMS.

washed, waxed, and polished last weekend

All it needs is something to cover the wood! I am going to put some type of vinyl to match the trim cover over it some time this summer...


I'll try to take a video tomorrow. :rockit:

im diggin the rims, look nice and cheap!
Thanks, I think they look good. I'm trying to keep a factory look to the whole truck.

Yeah they look good on it, fit the truck, not too flashy.

And I love that emblem.
I got that sucker on ebay for $30, I just have to figure out a way to mount it. I might have to buy a new grille.

Get a chrome grill insert and attach it to that...would look awesome IMO, and I don't even like chrome.

The short term plans right now are fender assist mirrors; LED retrofits into the brake lights, corner, and parking lights; H3 bulb retrofit into the reverse lights; and the 1947 GMC grille emblem.

Still have to install the 3/4 drop kit.
