^^^^ Give me some!
Not really asking about the best or cheapest brand (tho comments to that effect are fine, and your choice), but how much of what is really enuff?
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, and he is a dealer, after all....)
With that being noted, here's what was suggested for the '08 Dodge Ram quad cab:
75 CLD Tiles
1 roll Extruded Butyl Rope
1 85.5 ft² roll MLV
2 sheets 1/4" CCF
6 sheets 1/8" CCF
47.5 ft² 3M Thinsulate Acoustic
2 Velcro Strips, adh. 2 sides, 10-pack
1 Velcro Strips, adh. 2 sides, 2-pac
1 32 oz can HH-66 Vinyl Contact Cement
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!
