You can Quiet the Cab!!!

[Adam_Dodgezilla]

Well I was driving with the wiffer today and she asked if I could quiet the cab down.

And I said yes I need to buy some of that stuff they sell at the car radio store called doynomatt(I think that's the name?) Any way that stuff is expensive so I went home thinking oh well I like the way my truck sounds and she doesn't need to ride in it!!!

YA RIGHT!!! Well I had so left over padding for the Pergo floors I installed a few months ago, well it looks a lot like the stuff the radio store sells minus the adhesive backing. So I thought I'd buy some 3M adhesive spray in a can and WA LA we got a cheap copy!!! So I pulled every thing out of my truck, every thing, seats front and rear and the carpet, then cut the padding called Silent Step, cut it to fit. I then cut a piece to fit the rear wall of the cab use a lot of the adhesive spray to keep it there then I use the adhesive to hold the padding down on the floor cutting to a clean nice fit the restalling the carpet the seats and enjoy! Total cost $81. 00, $68. 00 for the padding at Home Depot and $13. 00 for the adhesive. It worth the time and money I think!

As quiet as stock with muffler? Better? Worse? I would love to drop the muffler, but don't need any additional cab noise with the windows up. Ray

Hi,

Well most noticeable differance is road noise

it was really reduced!!! I have Super Swampers that are VERY LOUD at 75-80 mph and a lot of that

has been reduced, and the rear of the cab has no

sound insulation to speak of so the padding help

there also!! Is it as quiet as with the muffler

no! I would say it's some where in the middle!!

Hope I helped!

You guys are making me leery of finding a wife. I LOVE that rumble , think I'd have to buy her a gasser or something!

Wife's are Great!!! But Girl friends are Better LOL!!!! Gotta be quiet she'll hear me!!! The best thing I ever did well second best thing I ever did is get married!! The first thing was the TRUCK, don't tell her that(just kidding), but if you want to make life a lot easier when you get a wife, buy her a car she wants even if you can't afford it!! Than Ask her how much she loves her car, when she replies I LOVE IT!! then you say great dear as long as your happy!! then order your

lift kit!! Then when she sees the bill and freaks about the $3,800. 00 you spent at 4Wheel parts, You ask her How she likes her car? She replies, I LOVE It!! Then you order Injectors, and she yells about all the money your spending on your truck, you ask her how much she loves her car? She replies I LOVE MY CAR, But I'll Park that thing right up your Butt, if you don't quit spending money on that Truck!!

Good Luck!!
