I put 6x9 inch speakers behind the seats in my 87. It is where original speakers were mounted. They are 400 watt Pioneer. I haven't hooked them up yet.

Get some of Jeff's brackets and make it look like they are supposed to be there. Cheap way to add in nice 6x9's.

BAH! why did you have to show me those brackets! I have had an itch to get rid of this wierd shaped speakers behind my seats for awhile. Now I dont even have to figure a way out.

Jeff makes some nice stuff, things that just add a touch of class to those who know what it normally looks like. They are easy to just spray bomb paint and screw in to place. Don't have to worry about a speaker box rattling around or sliding around or the seat hitting them etc.

My speaker boxes don't move around, and the seat doesn't hit the speakers. I am not even going to paint the truck. Just touch up the surface rust. Here is a pic of my truck.

I tried to redo this post, but I can't. I forgot to send a pic.

looks good, how much drop is that, and hows it done?

grs · 05-21-2011, 11:28 AM

The truck has 2 and 1 half inch drop spindles . At least that is what I was told. It has one inch drop coil front springs. A flip kit in the rear. With drop shackles. It is not level.
