Y'all should give me your trucks

Yea mine is also my dd, so it sees a lot of driving. As far as the actuator goes if you get one and tie it up to your frame all your lights will work right. I'm probably gonna do a SYE on my 241 soon. It will be similar to what you did for the front drive line

I forgot to pull the actuator when I sold the front diff. I found some type of clamp awhile back that I can't remember, that would of bolted to the frame to keep from zip tieing it out of the way.

Thanks for the info. I am wanting to keep my push button transfer case and hook up to my HP44. Hope mine goes pretty well.

No problem, sorry it took so long.let me know if you need anything else.

I have a spare I bought when my first one went out so I will put it on the frame and then keep it hooked up. About how much did you give for your custom shaft?

 

[aaronb]

It wasn't to bad. With the yoke and shaft I'm in it 450.

I found my center console subwoofer pics. the audio for now consists of an alpine cda 9886 head unit, infinity kappa 6.5'' component set, dc audio lvl 4 12, and a dc audio 120.4 amp for now.
I have comps running off the 1-2 channels, and the sub wired @ 4 ohms on the 3-4 channel. the sub isn't seeing any where near the power it should be getting. its probably getting 250-300 watts.
the sub is rated at 1000 wrms. hopefully sometime next year i'll get a dedicated sub amp around the 2k area.but for now it'll do.
the basic shape i'm going for.

getting the lines marked to get the curve I want. its called kerfing. the trick in doing this to set the saw blade to where it almost cuts all the way through,but you don't.
I think I had maybe an 1/8" or less so it didn't cut all the way through.

started bending it in shape.

after I filled the gaps with glue and sawdust and clamped it place. I used 2 layers of fiberglass to strengthen it.

I used a 1/2" round over bit on all the edges and the port opening,sanded with 220 grit, and primed it with killz 2 primer and used a textured roller with some gloss paint I had home depot match to the interior paint.
