Accidentally sold my subs today. Needed something loud on a budget of $600 or less to show off at a few shows and hopefully get more customers into my shop. It was ridiculously loud, way to much for the size of a Kj. It did what I needed it to, and not even 10 minutes after I decided to take the subs/box out, I had a random guy come in and offer me almost double what I paid.
Finally, I got my cargo area back and picked up 3mpg.
I also spent 4 hrs removing and reinstalling interior pieces (also replacing clips for trim and panels). Everything vibrated so harshly it was all loose and sounded like the floor in a haunted house. Over the winter I'm going to start the transformation over to a Jeep/Off road/performance fab shop and getting away from the audio, which was the plan when I bought the audio shop. I did scoop up a little something that will be more practical and it's going to be there for awhile. I'll add more pics later, my data is being throttled like crazy. Guess I'll have to use the neighbors wifi for **** from now on.

That's what i said about driving from PA to TX...25 hours straight. I had to do that twice. And here I go next month to do it again twice more

Yeah, I keep saying I'm not going to go straight through...
When I went up, I left late (3:30pm) and stopped around Knoxville. Heading back, though, I was on the road by 7am and within 6 hours of home by 8pm, so I decided it'd be dumb to spend the money on a hotel room.
Next time, though... hotel room. :icon_lol:

Haha once you're in the zone, you can't get out. I left on sunday around 6 after saying goodbye to friends and family all day....drank two 5 hour energy and two 20oz red bulls. Drove the 25, met up with my buddy, went out for beers, and then I could sleep. The beer helped

Yesterday & Today I installed these seats and reinstalled the CB with a slightly different mount.

I installed some just like that - heater control and everything. I also have the dark slate interior but the gray leather seats were the nicest I found. Some leather ones were downright nasty...
Was gonna color them black but I'm now thinking I'll leave them light gray. 'Course if I get bored I may change my mind :gr_grin:

Ah yes the fall touch ups begin, got the rear mounts sanded & brush painted, for extra thickness!

The undercoating seems to be getting a bit thin every 3-4 years.
Possibly I should get it back for some free touch ups again.:gr_grin:

That's why I have my wife with me on long road trips. To break up the driving otherwise I'm really bad about doing everything when I just stop for gas. When I drove big rig I used to play a game, I would keep track of cars that pass me, then see if they would pass me again when I would go by a rest area and count how many times the same vehicles would pass me.
Continuing today with fall checks..I had a few valve stem cores loose!

Hmmm. That's a great tip. I'll add that to my list.
Just went and made sure I could find the valve gizmo. It actually came with some stem cores.

That's my policy. A pop and a pee at every stop on the turnpike. I'm like a perpetual motion machine. (Or a human funnel.) :icon_lol:

Must have been some face. Want to come over and stare at the bolt on my serpentine belt tensioner? :blah: :icon_lol:
