Oh yeah I forgot about the kickpanels.... The center console though is gonna be hard to do for me. I got 2 kids and they always want to go with me, so I need the center seat.

Maybe if I make a box that could still be used as a seat it would be possible.

If you have power windows the factory door panel should have room for 2 sets of 6-1/2s.

ouch.......Heman steering. LOL I would go with some kick panels then. That way your really not cutting anything. It would be much easier and cleaner to install as well.

Are you looking to throw the 4.3l back in there or are you swapping to a v8?

Id like to do a 6.0 swap. The 4.3 has a little over 350K miles and had rod knock. It was partially torn down when I got it.

There are also pillar pod speakers you can do. They are tweeters. Total you can probably get 8 speakers in the truck without getting ridiculous and gaudy with it I would think.
