Cool, look foward to the rest of the painted box! Wish I had the time to do something like this! Ok...............I do, but not the money. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I have no idea.I'm still trying to figure out the tension on the ropes at the beginning of the race.

Haha thats what I was looking at for a while too. I really hated that class though, Dynamics I believe. Sadly I am bored enough at work right now that if I had my notes from the class I would probably be sitting here trying to solve the problem lol.

Sophmore and junior year I think were the toughest while senior isn't so bad since its much more practical classes. I'm sure its different where your goin to school compared to mine but roughly the same overall.

Truck is coming out sweet so far. Hope ya get those LED's wired up, gonna look pretty sweet. Not sure if I am liking the red paint too much but it does go with the R's and is but isn't part of the interior so it should all work. Dash looks sweet too //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

yeah i was in a tough situation with blue LED's and Red faced subs, but i think it it will come out nice. The LED's will be on a toggle switch, and their main purpose is to put some light in the box at night. If the LED's arent considered, everything matches up nicely. The box is red, the subs are red, the faceplace of the box will be black (going along with my dark interior), and my headunit has customizable lighting, which can be made red. I'll also have a red splashscreen on the HU, and im looking into the software hacks to make the standardized colors of the menu's be tinted red rather than the standard grey.

oh, and sorry for the lack of pics. I just took my last mid term last night.

As for progress, the box is standing face down awaiting paint. After the paint goes on, ill throw it in the truck and mock up some cardboard for the beauty panel. As soon as the beauty panel goes on, the batteries can be put in and the wiring begins.

just put on the last coat of primer. It'll be getting paint either tomorrow or friday.

Nothing too special, since the goal of this is just to seal the box up. After the paint is on, i'll probably go back and spray paint over all of the joints nice and thick just for safe measure. this part of the box wont be seen either way

the second picture has an 18v dewalt drill for size comparison, this bastard is HEAVY

Box is in! I need to build the beauty panel, put the alternator in, and do all of the wiring, then this thing will finally be done.
