I always tell people to read this guy's site before spending a lot of money lining their entire cab in Dynamat or another product. Those products are not truly sound deadeners, they are vibration dampeners, and to get the effect you only need to cover 25% of the sheet metal. To truly deaden sound you then need to lay down a layer of foam and put mass-loaded vinyl (MLV) above it. The MLV is what deadens the sound. MLV is heavy and dense, which is what keeps sound from passing through it.

This is well worth the read:

That's exactly what I did. You can see it on my build thread below.
