I spent the last couple days building a sub box for my double cab Silverado. I have used fiberglass once before this to repair a shower so please be easy on my fiberglass work. I will be using the 8"solobaric for a week or two until I order the shallow kenwood 12" that will live in there. Think I am going to go with the audio control lc2 line out converter for the rca jacks. Can't wait. I think I will be banging in a day or 2. The installs take a little longer these days with the wife and kids wanting all my time.

Good week for my truck. Finally got my rear Kings installed, Airaid Mit kit and a MagnaFlow 22" exhaust installed. Truck sounds awesome now! 5e2c6fef0a63f023c28c4eef7a7912d7.jpg27def1bf20e3506a696a530cd5b8738b.jpg78c7b5e21eefe76b738e4ba4ae05e3e1.jpg

I like the intake. Its not crazy loud like the open Airaid filter I had before. That one only lasted 1 day before I sold it. The MIT coupled with the exhaust makes it sound really good and I feel it made it more responsive. Cab noise is minimal.

Thanks for the reply. I think an intake will be my next purchase.

Is that a Corsa Sport? How do you like it?

I don't have the Corsa setup on mine. The tips however are similar, I have them going out to both sides of the truck, with a Carven muffler. I love the way it sounds.

I should add it to my wish list and wait for the price to drop and buy a few lol

 

Did that with my cordless impact I got about a year ago. Had it in my wishlist for a few years as finally it dropped drastically to 365 and regular price was 430. Swooped it up and glad I did bc the price went back up the next day

Then copy the link for what you want on Amazon in CCC and set your desired price and wait for the email when the price hits your criteria.

Installed Nfab steps. Nice not to slide across the seat now and foot placement seems right.

Jet Seal

Butter Wax

Glaze, Sealant (Jet Seal), then wax. I seal twice a year and it keeps the shine locked in and the paint protected. People also use Collinite for this.

 

Wait 30 minutes to wipe off after BL, apply Jet Seal and wait 30 min to wipe off, then waxes are the easy part and just go to town.

I'd let you borrow my DA polisher if you were close. Just takes time once you get your own.

 

And good pads. Looking at like $200-300?

Cool. So if I was to go back and add the sealant now then I'd reapply the buttery wax?

    • Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!
    • If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.
    • My brand new 2007 Silverado's wax frame was rust from end to end partway through it's SECOND winter here in MA. That stuff is completely useless.    
    • I went another direction after losing a trailer tire, thanks to not being able to access air at ANY of the 5 gas stations and garages I stopped at prior, with a Toyota Tacoma onboard, 50 miles from the Canadian border. They were either out of order, access was blocked, or the hose a few feet too short and I couldn't get any closer without risking damage to someone's property.   https://postimg.cc/gallery/X5QJ55w
    • I took a 12 second video on my iphone but the file is too big to upload. I will have to figure out how to extract the audio or just do another start with an audio recording.
