WELL THIS IS MY 1999 F150 V8 4.6L TRUCK

page 1: first page
page 2: latest pics new lights mods ect.

I HAVE THE WINDOWS TINTED ALL AROUND (WHICH DOSE MAKE IT SEEM A TAD HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT BUT GIVES THE TRUCK A GREAT LOOK.

I AM USING 30" WHEELS ON AN 18 INCH RIM BUT I AM THINKING OF UPGRADING AS THESE HAVE HAD OVER 100 NAILS/SCREWS PULLED FROM THEM SO FAR AND IM AMAZED THEY HAVENT CAUSED ME A PROBLEM YET.

I CURRENTLY HAVE THE DUAL SIDE EXHAUST WHICH REALY MAKES SOME NOISE AND APPEARS TO GIVE ME A LOT MORE POWER THAN MOST OF THE TRUCKS ARROUND.

UNFORTUNATLY I STILL HAVE THE ORIGIONAL HEADLIGHTS, BUT HOPE TO GET THE CLEAR ONES WITH SOME ZENONS SOON, I ALSO PUT SOME 20" WIPERS AS WE GET SOME HEAVY RAIN HERE.

THIS IS MY HARD TOP WHICH IS UNLIKE ANY IVE SEEN SO FAR, WE BUILT THE THING FROM 1 LAYER OF CHIP BOARD TO HELP IN SOUND PROOFING, THEN 2 LAYERS OF PLYWOOD, FOLLOWED BY 3 LAYERS OF FIBERGLASS, AND TOPED OFF WITH SOME BONDO BED LINER PAINT MIXED WITH GRIT TO ADD SOME REAL STRENGTH.
THE BED IS HINGED AND HAS HOOD OPENERS TO ASSIST OPENING THE HEAVY BED,IT ALSO HAS 6 PADLOCKS IN ADDITION TO THE LOCKING TAILGATE AND THE BACK ALARM SYSTEM.

THIS IS THE DIRECT VIEW AS YOU LIFT THE TAILGATE DOWN (THIS NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE THE HARD TOP WILL OPEN) AS YOU CAN SEE THE HOLE BACK IS SONDPROOFED USING HEAVY DUTY STUDIO FOAM.

THERE IS ALSO A PINE SUPPORT BEAM TO KEEP THE HARD TOP LEVEL (THIS WILL LIFT OUT TO FIT LARGE ITEMS INTO THE BED)

ALTHOUGH I HAVE MY SOUNDSYSTEM IN THE BACK I AM ALSO ABLE TO CARRY STUFF IN THE BED AS I HAVE A WOODEN TRAY IN FRONT OF THE SPEAKER BOX.

OK HERE IS THE HARDWARE,

I HAVE TWO 12"S AND ONE 15" IN A TOTAL OF 9 CUBIC FEET OF PORTED BOX.
BEHIND THIS (PHOTOS ARE TO DIFFICULT) IS,
4 1000 WATT CLIFF DESIGN AMPS (TWO TO THE 15" AND ONE TO EACH 12")
AN EPIC CENTER TO BOOST THE BASS
AND A 3 FAHRAD CAPASITER

OK MOVING ON TO THE INTERIOR.

AND HERE IT IS,ITS BASICALY NORMAL EXCEPT FOR A FEW BITS AND PIECES.

AS YOU CAN SEE THE TRUCK IS STANDARD SHIFT.

THE HEAD UNIT IS JVC.
AS YOU HAVE PROBABLY NOTICED I HAVE PAINTED MY DASH ECT HERE ARE SOME PICS,

THIS WAS DONE BY SANDING THE PANNELS SMOOTH, SPRAYING THEM BLACK, USING ARTIST ACRILIC TO PAINT THE DESIGN AND THEN HEAVILY VARNISHING THE PANNELS FOR PROTECTION.

APART FROM THE HEAD UNIT I ALSO HAVE 2 KICKER COMPONENT SETS MOUNTED IN THE DOORS ALONG WITH MY EPIC CENTER CONTROLL

I ALSO HAVE A KICKER 8" SUB IN A PORTED BOX IN PLACE OF THE OLD CENTER CONSOLE ALONG WITH A SMALL 300 WATT KICKER AMP,THIS BOX CAN FOLD UP SO THE MIDDLE SEAT CAN BE USED,

WELL THATS MY TRUCK I HOPE IT HELPS TO GIVE SOME INSPERATION,PLEASE MAKE COMMENTS AND UPGRADES YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE IMPLEMENTED.
IF THERE IS ONE PIECE OF ADVICE I CAN GIVE ITS TO GET AN ALARM,I SPENT A WHOPPING $500. ON MINE AND ITS PAID ITS PRICE BY STOPPING 3 ATEMPTED BREAKINS SO FAR.
