This is the same radio I bought on Dave and BlkWgns advice. I'll be mounting kit the same as Dave did to the center console. I looked and looked and found no better way than this. Thanks for sharing Dave.

Initially I wanted to mount it in the cubby in the center stack forward of the cup holder but that cubby is too shallow - there was zero room behind it. Mounted on the side allows me to see and reach it easily as well as allowing those big heat sinks plenty of air. I'll snap a pic later of where I brought the power into the cab through the firewall.

That cubby is used way to much in my truck to lose it. It's essential to my life hah.

If you ever consider a remote face setup, I used the entire driverside behind seat storage for my Icom 706. Works great.
 
You've peaked my interest in these AllPro updated springs @Dave .

Any more info on these bad boys?
PS still selling your older ones?

pps, i'll be at Expo West this year if you are in attendance, finally get to actually see this truck of yours.
 
The AllPro APEX Premium springs are great, worked perfect on DVX15.

We may or may not have the truck at Expo West this year - a new project looms on the horizon :D

Whaattt? Does that mean you're going to get the lift on the Subaru done by then? :eek:

It's going to look badass on 35's. :cool:

Sweet... I'll bring the zip ties.

I think you have Dave's truck confused with my vehicles again. I mean the fine high-quality zip-tie engineering I employ is without peers.

On the other hand, Dave would probably be using those high-end snowpeak branded reusable, high-speed, low-drag, premium cable-ties anyways.

Titanium, you forgot titanium.
 
So...

... This truck has been sold and we are moving on to the next project. It has gone on to a great new home with Frank and Renee at YodaTEQ - and the next chapter begins for us as we have a brand new Ram 2500 4x4 Cummins diesel here that's bone stock.

For now.
