Looks great! I did something similar in my double cab to retain the factory storage for the jack handle. Nicely done.

Thanks!

Thanks! I'm working on something similar for you to fit 2 of those sundowns ported. Since you have the console now I have a little more room to work with.

Do you care about easy access to the jack? If not I can extend it both ways for the airspace and have the port come out on the passenger side while still allowing the seats to go all the way back.

@Nasty Did you get a chance to send the seatbelt? (my message app is acting up again so I'm still not getting  all of my messages nor are others getting all of mine). I'm gonna try to get the rest of the wiring done tonight and will need that so I can put it all back together and leave it alone!

Man my OCD is working overtime lately! After more thought I realized that if I ever did want to put a console back in I would have to redo the entire system so I built yet another enclosure with a little extension for the amp and possibly the  crossovers. This one is built from a combination of 13mm and 18mm Baltic birch so I could recess the sub and fits behind the passenger seat. I still have access to the jack, Im going to make a bracket with a stud to mount the tools on the other side and I gave up about 2 clicks on the passenger seat but I dont sit on that side so I'm not gonna worry about it! 

 

BTW, if anyone with a 14-18 regular cab wants to buy the previously posted enclosure (built to specs for an Alpine SWR-8" Type R sub but others will work in that airspace) or any of the JL 10TW3 enclosures I posted a while back I'll make you a good deal!

Ill be posting them on my Instagram here tonight.

    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that. 
    • "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
