    My First "Real" Jeep Build

    Upstate near Cuse Yeah but I only had 24" x 48" pieces of wood and in order to make a double baffle with the dimensions I wanted I would of needed a depth of 25" which was the only adjustable variable. Also I only built this box to test out sub/port position front/front, back/back, and up/up I know most say Subs up and port back is loudest but I'd like to try it out for myself. Just givin you the heads up. I really wanted to try the OAs out but the coil config I wanted was on back order for a while. They look pretty good from what you showed us. Keep the pics and vids coming! For the $$ Theyre hard to beat

    Alt bad?

    Well, I can definitely understand if it's been 3 times. This is number 2 for me. First time he didn't even troubleshoot until after it was sent back. He just upped me from a 270 to 300. This time he was able to get the alt back on 4/4/2013 and found out the issue was a faulty internal regulator (would only charge under extreme rpm above 4k and only until it reached 14.7volts then would drop again). He then shipped it back out and it was out for delivery 4/9/2013. However, Fedex dropped the ball and says "attempt not made" on the tracking. We will see this time if this thing lasts at all. From my understanding there have been a few people that have been successful in getting refunded so you wouldn't have any losses. I'd give it a shot. I honestly wouldn't touch anything less than 6 phase hairpin after going through all this crap unless i had extras laying around. I mean if you run quad alts or something it would be worth it, but if you are just replacing a single alt then I'd probably say Mechman or DC all day. I've had my Singer alt in my Jeep for about a week now, and I have absolutely 0 Complaints. I have no problem recommending Singer to anyone, just to add to your Mechman or DC all day comment although Singer might take a week or so longer then those companies.

    Were you able to get the videos smaller? or did you bite the bullet and take like 2 days to upload them?

    My First "Real" Jeep Build

    Finally got some nice weather and got my Digital Voltage Meter in the mail today so I went ahead and installed it. As I was installing it I noticed how much space I had behind this panel so I figured its the perfect place for my Subwoofer gain remote too. Overall I'm pretty happy with how clean everything looks. Also received my Jasper 200J today, I'm expecting my Plunge Saw to come in the mail tomorrow, and hopefully my Router too if not on Thursday. Then I can finally get started on my new box.

    My First "Real" Jeep Build

    270 Amp from Michael Singer installed with an 87" Serpentine belt (Stock size is 88.8") My old battery My new DieHard Platinum 34M Surprisingly was smaller then my stock battery so I had to shove a small piece of MDF Under the battery tray boltdown? I am EXTREMELY Happy with Michael Singers services, His customer service is outstanding out of all the times I emailed him he always replied within a few hours. His build time is also right on with his estimated lead time, as said overall I have absolutely no complaints about him and if I ever need an alternator in a different vehicle I definitely plan on using him.

      That bullz will be plenty for the big 3 wiring, no need to spend more money honestly.

    My First "Real" Jeep Build

    Just got my alternator from Michael Singer today and installed it. I've got to say my experience with him has been GREAT Super fast responses whenever I email him never any longer then a few hours, and a lot of times I get a response within minutes. Payment was made the 12th of March, the alternator was shipped on April 2nd, received today the 4th. Somehow a picture of my cat was uploaded to photo bucket as well, so might as well add it
  22. Thanks guys definitely eases the mind. I'll be sure to check under the hood from time to time though.
  23. I have a spring tensioner, and maybe I'm just paranoid. But at any rate better to ask and be positive, then to not ask and deal with more problems. In my head I see shortening the belt as making everything spin faster which is where my concern was.
  24. I understand that but I'm asking is if possible to shorten a belt too much? well obviously if its too short it wont fit, but I mean shorten it too much within the range that will still fit.
  25. I'm waiting patiently for the UPS Guy with my alternator
