It's almost the same thing as Dynamat. A little lighter and a lot cheaper. I bought it off of E-Slay.

I'll look tomorrow at the shop and see if there's a logo anywhere, but I think not. That's one of the reasons I bought it.
It was three years ago that I got it. And I can't even remember what I had for dinner last night.

It's hell getting old! Sorry.

I replaced my cab mounts! I kinda stressed about this for a couple of weeks, not knowing what potential issues may arise, you know, stuff happening. I started at 7am and at 11:06am my '71 GMC K1500 was ready to hit the road, the project went really, really smooth. It was an awesome day in this man's driveway!

Got the hood on (still have to move the lines around a little and trim out the sound deadener) ; slapped the trim on the lights in the rear, put the plate on the rear (waiting for the new tags), put on the wipers.

Earlier in the week, I put the wheels and tires on after she was up on blocks for a long time. When I stepped back to look at the hood all closed up, something seemed wrong. The drivers side was a tad higher.....
Oh No! I thought I'd already lined everything up. I took a measure...It was about 1/2 inch plus off. So I did a visual....Huh?

Seems somebody put both rears (275/20's) on the driver's side, and both fronts (245 x 20's) on the passenger side. I wonder who was stupid (and/or tired) enough to do *that*?
Same guy will fix it on Monday.

Did you have trouble with the front wheels fitting on the rotors? I put 18" fronts and had to maching the rotors.

Have had new carpet, seat cover and seat belts sitting in the garage waiting for the weather to cool down a little bit. Got the carpet down, then the wife announced she wanted to go shopping. So in the best interest of my bank account, I stopped and went with her. Hopefully, I can get it finished up tommorrow.

Well I decided to go to the Woodward Dream Cruise , since it is only 10 minutes from home .. I normally take Ol'blue and drive up it once , then park at my buddys place and hang out on the side of the road and watch cars.. Well this time we had a few problems .. It quit in the middle of traffic , you know the kind that uis travelling at 2mph .. Luck we were on the inside lane so we pushed it onto the median .. found a wire had shorted out and caused a splice in the wiring to let go .. lucky I had a length of wire in the back of the truck and and a screw driver on my key ring .. so my son and I got that fixed and started crusing again and I noticed I didnt hear the fan for the radiator running .. turns out it fried .. so we decided to head home .. at 30mph it cools just fine with out the fan ... so at all the lights before the highway we just shut it off and fired it up when it turned green... made it home and now I have to decide what wiring system to buy ,and what BRAND name fan to install..... other than that it waS A GREAT TIME WITH MY SON..........

Got my '69 fired up, and got my '97 3/4 ton to move under her own power...

For the first time in almost a year, I got to hear 3 out of 4 of my trucks run. If I hadn't run out of daylight, I would have made it 4 out of 4.
