[QUOTE="Flex68, post: 7664286, member: 638503"] ^^^^ Give me some! Not really asking about the best or cheapest brand (tho comments to that effect are fine, and your choice), but [B]how much of what is really enuff[/B]? I got a quote from a guy who has a good rep and knows his stuff. Unfortunately, the quote he sent on dampening/deadening the beast in my sig kinda shocked me, $ wise. Made me wonder if there were reasonable corners I could cut and still get decent results....? (My truck is just a daily driver with an SQ-leaning system, I'm not planning to do any competitions, [I]and he is a dealer, after all....[/I]) With that being noted, here's what was suggested for the '08 Dodge Ram quad cab: [B]75 CLD Tiles [/B] [B]1 roll Extruded Butyl Rope [/B] [B]1 85.5 ft² roll MLV [/B] [B]2 sheets 1/4" CCF [/B] [B]6 sheets 1/8" CCF [/B] [B]47.5 ft² 3M Thinsulate Acoustic [/B] [B]2 Velcro Strips, adh. 2 sides, 10-pack [/B] [B]1 Velcro Strips, adh. 2 sides, 2-pac [/B] [B]1 32 oz can HH-66 Vinyl Contact Cement[/B] Do you think this is about as little as can be done, or are there things that can be dropped or redone as reasonable corner-cutting measures? Not trying to suggest that I want to buy a box of BandAids , cover the interior panels, and call that deadening....just wondering if other's experience might indicate the above is a bit much/overkill? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
