Those guages look killer....I vote blue

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Have you figured out what your going to do about a a/c compressor and other brackets for the 6.0 yet? Only asking because I too have a porterbuilt dropmember and Im putting a ly6 which is the gen 4 6.0 and I'm going to have to do something else for a a/c compressor because the bracket will not fit because of the rack and pinion is in the way and I havent checked the alt/ps bracket to see if it will fit yet but Ill let you know when I do. Anyways just figured I would ask you and see if you have come across this yet or not and if so what are you going to do?

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

The bracket from kwik performance is what I plan to use, and what I see most others using...

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Here's what I'm using....Vintage air frontrunner..

Haven't bought yet but close.........jim

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

I got the alt/ps bracket to fit on mine but I had to cut on the bracket to clear the ls3 intake and the a/c was way off so I started looking around and came across the kwik performance brackets too and for the price I think thats the way Im going too.

looking good!!!!!!

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Looks beautiful. You are probably putting some serious insulation behind that back panel I imagine? From what I understand that's where a lot of your road noise comes from as when u take gas tank out of cab you have tremendous reverb from the back of the cab like its a big drum. I love the way that panel looks

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

looks awesome...im on the fence on the inserts myself but have some super cool sound ideas with them.....i want them because I have a crazy gas tank idea as well as the speakers but just haven quite pulled the trigger on it. I like the SSR set up different and fits very well thought out....ive spend hours creating similar out of wood and wood super glue to create a similar look....next time someone wants this Im buying that center first..lol

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

are they really a 6" back space or 4"(they max lip they do?)

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Fatmat everywhere eventually.....talking to audio people next week for ideas...trying to use Zune through an amp..no head....the 2 end panels remove easily....should make audio easy to service.....more later in wkend.....jim

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Interested to see what you come up with on the Zune. I've got mine going from the earphone jack on the Zune into the mini amp's RCA input's. It works.....but if there's a better way.

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

That's what i was planning on doing ......still doing my homework.....this stuff changes seems like daily!!!......2 much for an old schooler!!!!.....jim

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

That would be awesome if it worked with a Zune. Looks like it Apple only though.

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

killer build. I just spent an hour drooling over it!

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Very nice progress Jim! I love the custom panels on the rear of your cab!
