The mission for this weekend was to finish the sound dampening and also redo some parts that I was not happy with but with the snow earlier in the week i got to try Big Black out in 4wd mode ;)
A trip to Travis Perkins saw me with a big old selection of gear (the wife works for TP so hefty discounts ahoy on this lot) - Picked up some expanding foam, a gun and gun cleaner, some PU glue (for the box build) as well as some cable ties and cable tie mounts for when i start running cables and cleaning wipes and dust covers to stop the foam going everywhere
I started off removing sections of mat that I wasn't happy with and adding more mat to the outer panels over the rear wings before adding some foam
Also did above the rear doors and along the inside of the roof rails
I also stripped down the boot door and deadend it and added foam
Added some foam into the space above the windscreen
We then finished off the rest of the sound dampening - making sure to roller everything down hard - following some comments on the sound deadening i decided to get a better roller and make sure it was done right this time!
The whole build thus far has been powered by this stuff! I doubled up on the roof - as you can see in the back ground I also covered the board supporting the sunroof
I was not really happy with the doors so ended up redoing them
And finally Some of you may remember bass kitteh from my previous install
Well here is Megatron helping again
A dirty Big Black!
