its a 20 gallon rci. it fits perfect in the frame rails and left just enough room to get some more air storage under the truck, i have two compressors and 8 gallons of air stuffed underneath

yes he did, im happy with the floor, makes for an awkward speaker box, i have a box in the back now with two L7 10's and two L7 15's. i just unhook the 15's when its not at a show.

Re: project draggin K5 revisited

The 4 link tabs and everything look really good. I was wondering why you didnt gusset the front frame horns after you dropped them? Or did you just not get any pics of it up?

Re: project draggin K5 revisited

I miss my blazer every day... Then I walk out to this every morning and it doesn't seem so bad...

I've been driving around my neighborhood, still need to wire up my lights and get it tagged.
