Looks great man!

Are you on DIYMA?

Not actively, but I do browse there from time to time and utilize that site for info when I'm researching stuff. Great site

Floor is foamed. Mass loaded vinyl layer next and then carpet can go back in!

nice work on the truck! what is the purpose of that foam? and how hard was it to strip everything down to the cab??

diesel 6.0 crew!

Wow. Your truck is drop dead gorgeous!!!

Interior was super easy to strip. The foam acts as a "decoupler" between the sheet metal and the MLV. As I understand it, it soaks up vibrations and allows the MLV to kinda float over the metal which allows it to absorb sound better

MLV layer on the floor is finished (thank Heaven.....taking forever). Time to clean carpet!

Will do

Let us know how much of a difference you experience too! I know I've seen some measurements in the past and it seems the difference should be quite drastic.

This part is definitely more fun than laying sound deadening materials down

My help has reported for duty this morning

Ahhhhhh, feels good to have her back together. Only part that is done is the floor, but I need to work on some stuff around the house, so input everything back together. I can pick away at the doors from here whenever I get time.

The project completely sucks and is a pain in the butt, but it's going to be worth it when it's all done. Just having the floor done has already made a huge difference. The amount of road noise from the tires has been drastically reduced. I can't wait to see the difference when the doors are done.

While I had the interior apart, every panel got cleaned front and back, the carpet thoroughly vacuumed and cleaned with folex, and the seats were cleaned and protected. Feels GREAT to have to interior cleaned and it smells much better. The truck is finally starting to feel like mine a bit. I cannot wait to attack the outside

Looks Good!

What kind of audio upgrades did you go with?

I see the pioneer headunit and DSP, what did you use for subs, mids, and he's?

Only thing done so far is the head unit. I have 2 Audioque amps, a 12" Image Dynamics IDMAX sub, and a pair of Image Dynamics components that will be going in

 

[TuxedoTaurus]

How do you like the ID components?

I'm actually looking to do away with my 5x7 to go with mid drivers in doors and 2 tweets in the b pillars and 2 in the A's. Not sure what speakers I want to go with.

The 5x7s are Memphis audio right now.

I love em. Nice warm sound, not too bright (which I hate).

Just finished up my first "engine mod" (if you can call it that.....Pretty boring mod). Sinister Diesel coolant filter kit:
