The Brat doors are deeper then 2nd gen Legacy doors or the window assy is out of that way. I have Pioneer TS (Something or nothers) in all 4 doors. they are about 2-1/2" deep

 

I will check out the Kickers though :)

Pionreer TS-162 works in most cars. they are just a dual cone but sound much better than a factory dual cone. the tweeter does not stick outward on this model and is a BEST choice.

Got the 5 speed d/r mated to the engine in the brat, some details left to button up on the driveline, axles, driveshaft, starter, shifter trim etc. Then need to turn my attention back to the carb rebuild to get it running. Steady progress :banana:

Used my car to assist clearing some property to get ready for a road to be put in, building site, etc. Pulled a lot of big logs, rocks, etc. Here it resting watching the fire.

Ran over a lot of little trees and whatnot... So I guess I did negative work on my car today because I effed up the driver's side quarter panel. Nothing a BFH and my welder can't fix :D

A nice shiney Carberator. Thsy had caps on odd ports which screwed me up for over an hour. None of the drawings or manuals refernced this one diaphram, ecept for an itsy bitsy tinsey wiency pic in the FSM showing it capped.

 

i lost all the pictures i tool of the vac hose routing, and the sticker on the hood is useless, but i will figure it out.

Im working on a box for behind my seats, that will house a 12inch kicker right behind the center console and behind each seat I will have another box for a 6x9 kicker,one behind each seat.

 

and am going to have to come up with an idea of how to store things in the bed of my brat,any ideas I have the seats in the back,I could take them out but would rather not, what if I put a tool box at the back of the bed?

Any suggestions?

I've seen some folks on here who install old Ammo boxes in the bed sides of their Brat. I think its kinda a cool idea. :)

 

 

I have one ammo box that I was going to bolt towards the back behind the wheel well,in the bed, but I would like to have 2 so they look like they go there.

Do you know of any threads with pictures of people with ammo boxes?

I think there was some talk and pictures about ammo boxes right here in this thread. Thats a lot of pages to look through. I've done a search for Ammo Boxes in the old gen section and this is the only thread it brought up.

I bought some supplies, I painted (flat black) my new rear disk backing plates, had the rotors machined (free, they had very little wear or warp, only rust. Bought red caliper paint, ordered all the caliper hardware from rockauto last week along with raybestos orgainic pads front and rear with new front rotors. I am grabbing front wheel bearings from AAA bearing tomorrow... man this thing is gonna be friggen sweet! Now I am just waiting for supplies from rock auto, got 1 box outta 3...

Steering wheel is a birthday present from my wife. Thanks love. Don't ask how I got it to fit.

 

I quit smoking a couple of weeks ago so the ashtray got thrown out and I made the cup holder to fill the space. Then got carried away with the wood thing and did the dash and the gear nob too.
