NEED A RECONE!

Recommended Posts

i have 2 woofers that i had bought from Brian Owens off of CA.com that wer crossfire motors with a fi basket & BTL softparts. i had an issue with one of them before and emailed FI and got a fast reply and they fixed it and got it back to me within a week. well i have since torn the spiders on these woofers and contacted to get them reconed several months ago but got no reply. i just let it go and they have been sitting for awhile. well i sold 2 of the motors and ordered BTL recones to do it myself as i have done for other production BTL's before. well im not sure if i ordered the kits for the wrong series of BTL's or what but i did one and messed it up somehow the coils are off and i just gave up before i wasted anymore money on the other one. i sent an email into FI about a week ago and still have got no reply from both email adresses i sent to about sending them in. can anyone on here help me ? it would be greatly appriciated.

I've got the email highlighted..just haven't replied back yet. I think you were asking about cost and I didn't know off the top of my head at the time...

If you ordered BTL recones for them you messed up severely, those coils will not fit in those motors.

lol i figured that out upon trying it. i have a few old BTL coils at home from other recones and i compared them to the ones out of these woofers and they seemed to be exact. but i guess not. my loss haha. but yeah i just need to get them reconed asap so i can get them out of my garage and in this kids truck who keeps buggin me. i still have one of the recone kits NIB if you guys can take that back, otherwise no biggy i can find a home

The difference is on the ID of the coil.

BTL's run a 3.000" ID coil, the coil for those motors are 3.018"

You'll never be able to tell unless you have coils in your hand all day long or a set of calipers.

ahh bummer. i figured it was somthin like that its got some sever rub but that was the least of the problems, the kit really doesnt seem to be sitting on the basket right. but o well just get back to me as soon as possible about sending them in and gettin them proper care i guess
