Like many of you I couldn't pass up the amazing deal npdang was offering with the DIYMA closeout so I got one.
This prompted me to get off my butt and start working on the FJ Cruiser again. Until the speaker gets here all I can really do is fab up the back wall of the enclosure, but I had the weekend off and didn't feel like being lazy so...here we go.
My FJ didn't come with the FJammer so I don't have a factory sub (thank God), but after taking off all of the removable panels I have the same space to work with.
Here's everything taped off and ready for glass...
...and here we are after a few hours of the fun stuff...
At first I though that I may have bitten off more than I can chew because this sucker didn't want to come out. However, after about 15 minutes of coercion and "colorful" language I managed to get it loose from the mold. I'm still pretty green when it comes to 'glass work, but I'm happy with the way things turned out.
When the sub gets here next week I'll fab up the baffle and go from there. I'm shooting for 1 cu ft and I'd like to mount the driver inverted to show off the sexay motor, but only if I can keep the cargo area useful.
Without forums like this I would have NEVER attempted such a stunt so thanks for the inspiration, guys! :beerchug:
