Re: What have you done to your wagon lately?
My inner black half came out too, so I have a mini 500 watt amp with one of those loud speakers under the hood. Haha! I normally listen to a bunch of heavy metal though.

Re: What have you done to your wagon lately?
Hahaha, I'm not sure how I'm going to make it work, I have two 5 gallon buckets that I have to bring everywhere for work, so I may have to build a false floor so that I can move the box back some more and over the struts or I may need to make a new box, we'll see though haha. I may just have to trade the system for something smaller because I'm not sure if my little tercs alt can handle all of that extra power.. :/ hahaha.
I've also got two P.A. horns that I took apart and mounted under my headlights in the front, super loud, all the black folks look at me crazy when I'm blaring music louder than they are hahahaha.
I still wish I could have an air ride setup like yours Bailey.... Until then I guess I'll cut my springs like all of the "cool" kids hahaha.

Re: What have you done to your wagon lately?
I like that box its lower profile than mine. I had to black out the windows so nobody would see the box. Before I only had an 8 inch bass tube. Which allowed me to keep the deck cover in I want to make side panels for the rear that will hold two twelves, similar to the way Ford did in the 90's model explorers. It would give me full access to the trunk. Right now if I get a flat tire I gotta move the box out to fix it. Keeping my fingers crossed I still have yet to get a single flat tire in this car my spare is brand spanking new 5 years almost.

Re: What have you done to your wagon lately?
Hahaha! Yes! That's so sick! I wonder how the difficulty is on building a box? I used to have 2 kicker comp 12s in there that sounded beautiful but I wanted to put the cargo cover back in place to hide all the stuff and that box was too big. You might want to consider getting a capacitor. I noticed my alternator is on its way out the door so I got a cap from my friend and it helps out quite a good deal. I just need to find some mounts for it because it's just floating around on the cargo cover. I'll have to take a picture when I get off work today.4wdEconoBox wrote:Hahaha, I'm not sure how I'm going to make it work, I have two 5 gallon buckets that I have to bring everywhere for work, so I may have to build a false floor so that I can move the box back some more and over the struts or I may need to make a new box, we'll see though haha.

Re: What have you done to your wagon lately?
I have thought about this spare tire issue as well. I talked to the guy who welded my rear bags uo and he was showing me all his custom fabrication work. I was thinking about having him build me one of those tire racks that the jeeps have, the ones that swing open. 700 bucks doesn't seem half bad.Ridlbox wrote:I like that box its lower profile than mine.

Re: What have you done to your wagon lately?
Its not terribly hard to build a box, me and buddy of mine build them, well I mainly am just a helper, he does all of the calculations and cuts and everything, but from watching him do it, I think I could easily build one. Thats my biggest problem, I want to have to full access to my cargo area, and I also want to have back seats.... So thats why I'm thinking I might need a smaller set up, because that sub needs a good amount of air space in order to breath right. Maybe I can talk my buddy into helping me find a solution. I need to look into getting a nice cap, but I've never used one, so idk. I might just end up making a full length roof rack for a spare or two, that would be the easiest and cheapest solution. Plus if its done right it would look pretty nice!
As promised, heres a picture of my wood floor! It was a pain in the rear to do, plus my jig saw gave out on me half way through so I had to finish it off with 4 1/2 inch grinder haha.

Re: What have you done to your wagon lately?
Thanks! The only bad thing is that if I have a spare under it, it sticks up just a little bit, which is why I think I'm going to build a roof rack for a spare I might even end up throwing one of those nice led light bars on the front! I plan on using two pieces of angle iron and putting wood boards as the connecting rails. I don't know, with trial and error it should be nice!

Re: What have you done to your wagon lately?
Whaatt?! Let me know about the light bar. I planned to do it on mine but I've been buying a bunch of bs lately. Haha. All I need is one of those roof baskets and a light bar and I told my wife I was going to be done spending money on it... for now. That trunk takes me back! Haha. 5 years ago I had a focus and a buddy and I decided to do laminate wood flooring. Bad idea. Looked cool as hell but everything in there would slide around all day.

Re: What have you done to your wagon lately?
I will, I've got to figure out how I'm gonna do the rack first. I want to make one without having to weld anything, or with the minimum amount of welding. So thats why I'm thinking angle iron and wood. If anyone has any ideas or pictures of ones they've done or seen that would give me inspiration would be great! If not, I'll just wing it and see how it comes out! Anyone know how much angle iron is going for?

Re: What have you done to your wagon lately?
Which route are you trying to go with that? I lucked out and bought ones like this for 30 bucks. http://ep.yimg.com/ay/orsracksdirect/th ... cars-2.png
Luckily thule sells just the keys and they were 15 for 2 keys I think. They look like shit but work like a charm.
