I've done a 2" BL, a PML, headunit/amp/subs, alarm w/ remote start. No pictures of the stereo, but here's one from the outside.



should be getting some new wheels/tires, and hopefully some sliders and a shrock rear bumper soon.

I've got shackles on the way, but I don't think I'll be satisfied. I'll end up getting a BL as well. System wise, I've got a Polk Audio 10" and a Navone Engineering/Autosound 2000 Line driver for the factory headunit. I'm getting new speakers in the near future. It never ends......... [Crybaby]

Well, I finally got my shackles here and put them on. It does make a difference, I will admit. My 10 year old son even noticed, and loved it! Later down the road I will either go with the BL or I was thinking about a SL. Haven't decided yet. I will probably getting new tires before next winter as well.

I have the K&N cold air intake and the Gibson exhaust. Sounds pretty good. Looking to do some audio upgrades in the near future.

I've got an 02 SC 2WD. I just put some wheels on it and have been contemplating a BL or SL, maybe a push bar.

those wheels are pretty sick man. id like to get a set for my hardbody but im having a hard time finding them online. the only place i could find had em for $700 each. you got an inside man or did you front the big bucks? either way, they are super nice.

id rather have those than my titans, but at least mine were cheap laugh


and BenzsX, you want a large ported enclosure, and f'n loud, come holler at me sometime.

the crappy mic on the crappy camera doesnt make it sound very good, but it sounds real nice in person.

I like those wheels as well! And ScottXGTR, has the car audio technology gods provided an 18" that sounds decent? When I saw my first 18", 15 yrs ago, they sounded very muddy. The only reason one would purchase them was to be, " bigger than yours." I'm not saying that's what your doing, 'cause things are different now. I just mean do they sound decent?

yeah man. ive ran everything from 10s on up to 15s with good and bad choices along the way. this 18 was a really good choice. Fi Car Audio has 4 different models available in the 18. the 18Q is their sound quality oriented woofer. not sure how they made a 1000w woofer with 27mm Xmax sound this good but they succeeded. i love it, especially for the price. they also have the lesser model SSD which sounds good, and the BL and BTL are geared more towards total output. The designer at Fi (scott) has been designing for years and is responsible for the RE line that everyone was raving over before US amps bought RE out.

i bought it because my buddy is probably about your age as well. telling me about the good ole days when he ran some kicker 18s. i got an suv and he's been bugging me about using the extra space wisely. so i tried a pair of 15s, 4 12s, and finally settled in on 1 18. all have had about the same output but this one hits very low and with a 30hz tuning, sounds awesome. i listen to mostly rock and it fits my music and tastes very well. strong output, great response, and solid kick drums. give it a shot if you got a mere $300.

I've got a few friends that would definitely be interested! Thanx fot the info. Unfortunately i don't have the room, 2 kids, 2 dogs, and my son and I have 2 bags of soccer gear, cause I still play, in the rear. 1 Boston 10" is all I can handle. I don't play it real loud much anymnore, except when I'm alone. But SQ is a MUST. I appreciate the info, and will definitely pass the info on.

If I'm not the handyman type, what kind of shop can I take my X to to get a PML installed?

You could try a truck shop in your area, they will be able. But it's so easy, save the money and do it yourself. There is a great how-to in this forum. Just do a search.

Yeah - A PML is a good way to start to become acquainted with your X's underbelly and suspension.
