Great job!!!! Do you have anymore interior pics of your console. Looks like a nice setup. Sure wish I had a shop that size to work in all the time.

Yeah the shop was very nice to work in as far as keeping the snow off of me and the truck but there wasn't a heater or any insulation around 80% of the building. A lot of time was spent huddled over a MR. Heater propane heater.
As far as the amp goes I have been running two different ones both are the rockford fosgate old skool type. one is 125X2 which I actually think I liked more because of the sound quality and the other is a 225X2 which throws out more thump but I cant hear the high notes. As far a size goes with the speakers I will stick to the fosgate 10's. I think much more would just be overkill in that size of a truck. I added my other interior picture that I had on file BY THE WAY THANK YOU GUYS FOR THE COMPLIMENTS ON THE TRUCK I DONT THINK THAT I COULD HAVE DONE IT WITH OUT THIS WEBSITE AND THE MEMBERS |

the seats are out of a 1997 jeep grand cherokee. The bluish gray is the original material and the rest I had upholstered. The best part about it all is that they are power and have heat
I agree on the name change maybe to damnclosetobeingthere |

Seats are out of a '97 Grand Cherokee.... hmmmmmm, wondering if I can swap my old torn bench seat with my tan leather seats from my jeep? Did you keep your fuel tank in the cab. I plan on installing my 10" fosgates behind the seats when I move the tank to the bed.
