honestly, mainly having the room right there really. along with probably one of the easiest wiring jobs i'll ever do. currently there is an old pioneer component system up front and it's really missing the low's.


it's only going to be an 8 in a slotted box. i have two alpine type r 8's sitting on the shelf- i bought them for who knows what years ago and never did shit with them. i think van is going to get one and the boat may get another.


i was thinking this but just looked at recommended specs...

11 X 8.5" X 20"



that's a good sized fucking box for a tiny 8" wooofer

3" "lift" yesterday. Front kicked the fuck out of me. Rear was gravy. Spring compressors blow.

Before, rear lifted pic, and complete pic.

Also pic of sweet minty underneath. I fucking love this thing. Body has some scratches and Meh paint but fuck is it minty.

What did that 3" lift consist of, springs, shocks/struts and end links?

Ghetto van mall crawler lift consists of...

Block out back and I put struts with coil springs on them in also, which will help with tow sag.

Up front is a spacer under the spring.

A company makes spindles for up front and I might just go with that but they are just pricey


It being two wheel drive and having leafs out back and springs up front makes it not too hardcore tho.
