Looks like a serious system. Keep us posted. I’d love to see a Parts list. If you and your buddy haven’t tackled an 07-14 there are a bunch of issues related to vibrations that need addressing early on. With 2-15’s on 5K I’ve creased quarter panels and the roof will need substantial support. Especially if he’s chasing the SPL meter. Feel free to hit me up if you’d like to avoid some issues with this model Tahoe.

yea my 07 has a 15” Memphis mojo and a 2500w amp it constantly rattles my tag lights out the sockets and flex’s my quarter panels in the rear and I only have my amp halfway up until I get a alt or battery upgrade…

Both trucks look like fun projects. My best buddy also runs 26's on his truck but he went to the darkside and bought a 2023 150 Platinum. I tap out at 22's and really prefer 20's mostly because I have 3 women at home with me.

Not that this is an issue but aren't both trucks 2000-2006 models?

Trey,
Have you guys had a chance to put the system on an SPL meter? Will he be running 4-15 or 2-15's in the final layout? Have you thought about running a DSP to the highs? Where is the enclosure tuned to?

Everything's looking good so far. Any pics of the under hood electrical?

He’s running two 18”s now not sure the model but I believe there sundowns but they beat pretty good.
I’ll have to ask him what it hit on the decibel meter next time I call him. Our other buddy’s Silverado has 4 15”s and it makes water bottles and cups float in the windows
All the electrical is in the truck hooked to the yinlong cells it’s not got much more then a big 3/4 with the mechman alt
