Sub+65mph=top Off
 

Yeah Thats Right I Was Driving Around And Hear This Raddle Well I Found Out What It Was!!! I Was Driving Home On The Freeway And Then I Heard This Wossh Sound I Look Back And The Top Is 3 Feet Up In The Air And Stuck On The Back Window Lol I Slam On The Brakes And Bam!! It Came Back Down And All Most Fell Off The Side But The Rear Window On My 87 Runner Is The Best I Ever Had Cause It Did Brake!! But Good Thing A Cool Cop Came Over To See If I Was Ok And He Helped Me But The Top Back On I Found 3 Bolts So I Put Them On And Drove Home (with Out The Radio On) Got Home And Fund The Rest Lol But If Anyone Has Anything To Say Go Ahead Cause I Thing I Just Toped Off The My Radio Did This To My Car Or Truck Statment!!!

So much for pre-use inspection eh?:ignore:

yeah i guess lol but it scared the poopy out of my man

Ha Ha You Capitalized Every Word In Your First Post

then not a single one in your second

BTW caps on every word is hard work. Crazy about the top though for sure!

Well, blame your boyfriend for not checking the bolts, silly.

It's a forum filter. They tried to post with CAPS LOCK ON and the software changed it to the way it is now.

Ok, I'll bite.. How in the world did you not notice every bolt falling out of your top? I have one broken bolt and even with the rest tight I can hear the top move a little in the turns. I'd hate to see what one of those could do flying off on the highway...

Are you trying to say that you have subs or something, and that you think they wiggled all the bolts lose?

Neat!

-Pest (Nate)

well they did im guessing cause the side of the body of my rig moves about 2 inches in and out from the (1) sub! and the top is cracked from it i saw it happen and no i did have caps lock on cause i was in a chat room just before i came here to post this little problem of mine but the 15in is comming out and 3 18in's are going in i will take pics when i do it and post them for you all

Holy Crap!!!!!! :think:

Is English your first or second language? :think:

Do periods and other punctuation marks scare you? :think:

I can make almost no sense of this post and that makes me feel sad. :prop:

See, With All Caps On It Does Capatilize Every Word.

But if you type in lower case first I THINK you can get things in ALL caps.

:hillbill: See.

That is the most awesomest thing I've heard today!

Take a movie of this. That's something I'd like to see!




That is, unless, you were fibbing.

You probably just had to be there. (I wasn't)

I :pop: every time I hear that sound coming down the road in front of my house *BOM*-bom-bom-bom....*BOM*-bom-bom-bom

I think they should :ban: stereos like that.

They make me want to :saw: the owner because you can't here the :guitar: over the rattling noise....if my children ever ask for sub-woofers like those installed I'm going to :barf: Then go get :drink: & then :spank: them.

to read your post took far too much effort...i doubt your sub(s) are the cause of this...and i highly doubt the body panels of your truck are moving a two full inches, that would be from HERE[.................................]TO HERE, and thats just not gonna happen

IF I only had a 13" monitor that space would only be about .75"! :hillbill:

:think: I want my 10 minutes back...

ok ok fine people tell me how to so a video and ill go and recored it right now!!!

ok ok i just went outside and it dont move that far anymore i thing it was just cause the top was loose but it moves only like a 1/4 inch now with the top on tight and im pulling 152db at the db drags

hahahah i always leave the bolts off on my 4runner. but since i max 5th gear at like 55mph it doesnt get going fast enough to do that thankfully. its usually off when i use it anyway :)

On a different note (pun intended) did you ever see the myth busters episode with the giant engine powered woofer they tried to tear a car apart with? lol, it was an interesting segment. Those high power systems can damage a vehicle. Shear bolts? No. Rattle bolts loose that weren't torqued down correctly? Certainly.

Sorry for my earlier obvious bias but, I literally despise the very existence of those people who subject me to their (lack of) taste in music. I see no reason why I should have to hear their stereo while I'm inside my house watching T.V.:nono:

How did your stereo cause all your bolts to rattle loose? And I am confused about your back window....did it hold the top on while it as trying to fly off? And did it "break" (not brake)?

No the rear window didnt brake for some reason i dont know why. Yes the window held the top on but it was only like 2 sec. The sub i belive caused the top to come off just cause there's nothing else back there (that i know of) that would or could make the bolts come out. There hows that for gertting my typing right??

that statement says it all lol

Lol, I had to. Yes I am a grammar Nazi; so sue me!

btw, i have a 2 subs as well as 2 amped 330 watt 6x9's in my quarter panels, and the bolts have never loosened up in 3 years. Be sure to double check your bolts when you put the top on, and torque them in the correct sequence. It its a really hot day, be sure to check the bolts when its cold again, say in the morning since heat causes things to expand.

I doubt your stereo caused the bolts to rattle out, even if you had it at max volume. In which case....you're now deaf lol.

very true, even at that sense, 3/4 of an inch is still excessive for it to move. and i would assume that most people viewing YT are on monitors larger then 15 inches, as my comp sucks and i still have a 17 inch monitor.

lol ok ok so i cant spell or type bite me!! lol but yeah i will be checking them bolts untill it gets hot out here so i can take the top off again
