Starting to wire things up. This is a lot more time consuming than it looks! First, I had to figure out the best way to orientate the amps and DSP for each device; ensuring enough room for all connections.

Mounting the rack and starting to run wires. For anyone with this model of truck wanting to run multiple RCAs and anything larger than 4 gauge, you will need to modify the stock raceways. I took my time and feel fortunate I didn't run into too many hiccups.

Good info! I'm planning to run optical instead of RCA from Pac to my processor, but do plan on using 1/0 wire. Will definitely pay close attention to this area.
Digging the progress so far! Keep it going :)

I couldn't believe my luck. Not only did the position of my grounding distribution block match up perfectly with one of the stock subwoofer's mounting bolts, but the run turned out to be only 5 inches! Super solid ground!

Thanks, CH! I've also ran optical too, which I'll try out. You will lose the ability to fade, but that's not too big of am issue. I ran both to be future ready for updates and upgrades.

I'll add photos tomorrow of the power wire run through the firewall and where I will eventually mount the inline fuse holder permanently next too the battery.
