P1000 Cumminspusher-the New Ride

[CumminsPusher]

I thought i went all out buying a kris Kristopherson greatest hit cd off amazon. You beat me here. Lol

You shouldn't be tipsy when in eBay lol. Ordered the right stuff last night a little more senceable. Ordered a Rockford Fosgate punch 500rms mono and a punch300rms 4ch. These are waterproof and are designed for powersports. Always loved Fosgate and these are very compact and very efficient which is we are forced to be aware of

Spent lots of time figuring out which sub to go with. There are several waterproof units but the Wetsounds 12" comp looks right for the 1.5ft air space in the box

Nice! Should punch hard with that combo!

I'm hoping so. The Fosgate we had in there slowly went weird after having several inches of water over it. And the Infinity sub didn't have near enough airspace prior. With these amps there will be no need the mount in the box so that frees up some space and everything is designed correctly this time.
My previous amp I had laying around and sub was wrong for the box. This whole system had went into the 700 then both 1000's so it's nice to finally give PJ more of its own. You learn some each build, trying to update

Well PJ will be badass! There will be no need for anyone else to have a system with that set up!
I have a ton of projects for the Beast, but this damn weather will not cooperate! Started on it today but it was too damn cold!

Such a pain being limited everything has to be super efficient and you still can't do what you want. Frustrating! There are plenty of us that will be bumpin'! Lots of great setups.
We just had another dump last night. How are you looking up there?

About 20 degrees for a high and windy with light snow! Too much snow too soon really shut me down this winter! Now I just want it to end!

I don't think it's going to be a problem! I'm just hoping for good weather when we are down there!

Looking good

New Warn finally going in. Pretty excited to use this if needed. Have 12k 5/16 synthetic going in I'll measure the left over to see exactly what spools in.

This will allow us to use the old front in the rear. I've decided to run this Warn 4500 instead of a 3500 we were planning in rear as well because we'll probably use that more then the nose, however we'll be running 1/4 7800 synthetic on this.

puddle Jumper is back in pieces! Ton of added wiring going in so we're cleaning things up all the way throughout. Many things were added at different times so she was never down for camping so it's a bit of a mess. Need this whole setup to live the life of the machine...it's a Honda might last a bit lol. She's going to be a wreck for a couple weeks.

Got one of the two amps today and they weren't kidding on its size! Both will be able to be mounted in the area above the fuel tank. Still waiting on the amp for the rumble but this will power the 12 overheads very nicely.

It's nice to get an amp with actual ratings. 300 watts doesn't mean 300 anymore but does with Rockford. Actually tested at drastically more with a CEA-rating of 333 impressive from this size I'll bet she gets warm

I don't suggest starting this up in your house. Sounds wicked but It's loud!!!

New exhaust? Or just removed the muffler?

Ok, what you do?????

Getting ready for new exhaust to get here next week. Pulled the old rusted unit out and the new one is much smaller,stainless steel as well, and will give enough room for the rear mounted winch to tuck up inside. I didn't want this hanging off the reciever as we still use that and it's to easy to get damaged. Got a Warn winch mount because I wanted this as compact as possible. Plenty of room though with the monster exhaust/ catalytic converter gone for good.

There's a big weight reduction even with winch and new exhaust added.

Kinda like throwing a chair off the deck of the titanic. As much stuff as you have are you going to notice 20lbs?

Ya I can't stand it that loud lol. That was full removal. It's f***ing loud!!! Hurts something fierce. Went with this guy

No but nice to subtract something every once in a while. Got programmer in as well and wow it fills the garage with the smell fuel. Can't let it run indoors anymore.
