Kick Panels: Q-Logic QL-K1002B - $200
Fronts: 2x 6.5” Polk DB651 - $60
Amp: ?
Rears: 2x 6x9 ?

I'll be putting a sub box in my hatch similar to this:

I haven't decided on the head unit, amp, or rear speakers.
I'd probably just get Polk 6x9s for the rear or leave the stock rears/no rears and spend more for your front speakers. Everybody likes buying new rear speakers though. I'd get a JL audio amp off Craigslist. I got a 500w amp for cheap.

You'll have to come see my home theater setup. I prefer watching movies on my system over movie theaters. Haha.

your going to have to put sound deadening on all the trim, my buddy rattled all his trim with his setup and it ended up sounding like ****,

also if you put the sub box in the hatch like that you wont have anywhere to stow your T Tops if you take them out on the road

sounds like the perfect time for him to upgrade to an AX-15 and not look back. The adapter kit is really simple (just a adapter plate and a bearing seal retainer from advance adapters)

those are the front crossmember/ rad support brackets, not the lower frame tie ins


This shows the main brackets and the rad support brackets you just showed

Second... I know my oil pressure is fine but for some reason my gauge likes to stay buried all the way to the right and then intermittently move back and forth like it's just messin with me. Once it does fix itself (after 20 minutes or a turn or just randomly, it sits perfectly fine).
Repair the tranny line to fix the leak

the oil pressure sensor is causing your issue - replace it and the problem should go away - make sure the connector is tight and the wire is not kinked. Mine did this for a while too - you prob broke it while changing the filter - very common

Hey Mike,
Yep, you'll need a dropped pitman arm.

unless you plan on dropping the trackbar at the frame side also - no.

That being said I have a drop trackbar mount in my shed if you're interested. It's for a double shear setup - Clayton - good ****. Has a frame crossbrace also.

if they're OEM hooks/brackets, yes absolutely. They resist side loading for the brackets
