@@ChaunceyBronson thanks for watching! Videos will slowly keep coming haha

@@Solvefunction when its time to let it go, ill make sure youre on the VIP list for pre-sale hahaha

@@bigcityoffroad3372 I hope you always enjoy it.

@@Solvefunction i hope so too

Epicenter “adds” a signal that doesnt actually exist in the original recording. The simple way to say it(which isnt completely accurate) is, its puts bass into songs that dont have any. Dsp can control whats already there, epicenter uses magic to make bass.

Alternator is stock, somehow it charges fully through all of this. I do have a 220a alt on the shelf to install.

Ok, this is crazy. The stock unit is 70amps or something like that I can’t remember. But let’s say it’s 100amps. Even at that you have 3 amplifiers drawing like 200amps minimum. How is your voltage not dropping like crazy when this hits? I bet if you add a large bank of capacitors it would really wake up the bass. Have you check your voltage?

@@papapeppa6198 to be honest, i was blown away too. Cruising down the road it charges about 14.2-14.4v. Thats with a calibrated volt meter and multiple redundant meters. If im jamming hard will bring it down to 13.8v on a bassy song. Sitting idle, itll drop a bit to 12.8ish but only with the bass. The current required to turn on the amps should be enough to weigh it down, but it seems to handle driving at full volume with no issues. I do plan on swapping the 1500w sub amp for a 2500w unit, thatll change things for sure. At 14.4v and 3000w it should eat about 210 amps of current at full tilt. The truck does have 2 batteries, so thats helping…

@@bigcityoffroad3372 it must be the second battery acting as a capacitor in some way. This is great. I am going to probably do a dual setup then. I have an issue with my current alpine 5 channel clipping out and I thought it was a voltage problem.

@@papapeppa6198 I have 5kw of audio in my Toyota with the 2UZ's stock 100a denso. The electrical is +1100 CCA group 31 size ultra capacitor under the hood and 80ah of LiFePo4 lithium in the cab. For your sub amp to draw its max current you would have to be sitting there blasting a non stop tone. In reality its normal use its just pulling short bursts of current. These short bursts can be more than the 100a the alt is supplying because the battery is supplying the rest. But even in my case normal operation is just not enough to overtake the 100a of charging. One weird way to think about it is your system is only pulling the current like a wood pecker, but the alternator is supplying the current like a water hose.

I have so much ground clearance that i doubt ill ever stick them on a rock. Id imagine theyre less strong than a frame mounted setup, but there is a ton of sheet metal and the 3 pillars tied in, so itll spread the load nicely.. tape was 1”

Thanks ;)

Just getting started.. ;)

Do it! Thanks man.

Its coming, dont worry

@@bigcityoffroad3372 watching that made me want to wrap my 2022 Lexus GX 460 a similar color. That came out awesome for how old that car is.

Thanks, i appreciate that. I did have dark green candy on hand, I thought it might too many variables to add to the mix given the timeline and basic paint skills. This is the fisrt time ive ever painted a car, aside from a bit of primer many years ago. I was never going to body work the truck, but i wanted the paint to stick, its all in the prep, you know..

Thanks ;)

😘

Theyre called flexi flares, many sizes and shapes, mostly used on motor homes, buses, and other large wheel vehicles..

Thanks man. I got the wheels from summit racing, they were black and i just scuffed them up and painted them with spray paint from home depot.. but, im really really good with spray paint.

Sorry babe, work event..

Thanks.. there is more to it that didnt get filmed, its such a tight spot to weld and have a camera next to you. Ill get some video of the completed inside of the slider on the next video

@@bigcityoffroad3372 looking forward to it.

I’ve seen people weld 3/16 plate to the a/b/c pillars and then weld their square tubing to the plates. Those sliders get worked hard and have held up great!

@@stefan3225 love the creativity with those types of builds for functional design

also, I love the original color, FWIW

;)
