Today did the Summers22 splash/apron mod for front wheel wells. Great write up and easy to do(accept for removing the wheels).

Sweet, another install! I did not have to remove the front wheels though. But I do have extra room with a 2.5" level.

I have the same 40085 XR1 and I totally love the sound. Loud on hard acceleration and whisper quiet cruising at 70 mph. Excellent choice my friend!

You are welcome. I get so many messages about my exhaust, it's hard to keep all the people straight! I think it's the perfect sounding muffler, especially with my Omega tune and S&B intake (with the lid off, lol).

Installed AMS Turbo Inlet pipes! Very cool mod. Spools up much quicker.

Oh yea!

The Rockville sub requires more power than the F150 rear connector can provide. Or at least I heard some distortion. Not a lot so may not be an issue for you. I ended up running 8AWG from the battery and used the turn-on signal from the connector. The Rockville works with the 6v signal. You could just tap into an ignition 12v signal instead and not have to Forscan. Audio was from the rear speakers with an external LOC.

Here's a under the hood view of the power line. The fuse housing is on the left and the line runs just under the cowl.

Where did you source the audio signal? If from the connector, it will sound flat compared to using front speakers.

I just did some winter gear storage organization with help from @tareed94 . Mounted my shovel up and out of the way secured to the box link tie-downs with the "Quick Fist Clamps" from Amazon.
