no problem brother went with the usa-1 custom autosound stereo so i could have ipod connection had the same radio before but less watts and no ipod connection never had any problems with it. new dash speaker, kick panels are kenwoods 6-1/2's, two 8" kicker comps subs and a polk audio pad5000.5 amp. boxes measure 4-7/8 H 10-3/4 W 12-5/8 L . yes brother stock bench seat, did alot of head scratching with my buddy robert but it came out nice its not alot of bass but it has a nice solid sound to it. got the radio and dash speaker from classic car stereo, amp,subs,and nvx from sonic electronix kick panels from outback truck parts with the speakers mounted already.

thank you brother thought about it alot with the wheels i already had a wide five star and i like directional wheels too but for the price wanted to make sure id be happy with it for a while thats the reason i went with the rally plus it looks a little more easy to polish IMO heres a pic of the kick panel up close got the paint from Tasco Auto Color i think they did a good job matching it ill get you some more pics tonight and upload tomorrow.

Re: original-71 update pics after new shoes and drop

Hector - your truck looks absolutely SICK!!!! I actually went with your tire size for mine because I love the stance. Quick question, with your stance, did you install a drop crossmember and how close is your rear axle from the frame?? I am trying to drop the rear and really don't want to put in a c-notch/drop crossmember unless I have to. I appreciate it!

thanks for the compliment. stock crossmember. if i remember right about an 1-1/2 rear axle to frame, just trim your bump stops, no c-notch no bottom out issues, but i dont put anything in the back either, not sure what your plans are as long as you dont put anything in back i wouldnt worry about the c-notch IMO but if you are then i would do it.
