UNBROKEN’s Iconic Silver ST build

[dolsen]

Things will happen soon...lots of things.

Good lord is that all for the ST?

Can't wait to see the custom exhaust your making

 

[UNBROKEN]

Prep work for the exhaust. It looks long but it’s the same overall length as the oem muffler and tips I added.

 

[DoingOK]

Nice. What tips are those?

 

[UNBROKEN]

Just some unbranded Chinese stuff from eBay.

Just curious, do/did you ever hear the front end rattle? I am wondering if lowering the vehicle or changing out the sway bar end links would help eliminate/reduce the noise.

Mine is in the shop right now and they will be changing one of the front struts which i am not expecting to do much after reading the massive thread on the explorer forums.

 

[UNBROKEN]

Mine has never made any noises.

 

[UNBROKEN]

Exhaust done. Sounds great and I’ll have clips today. Zero drone but I can hear it on the highway...I think maybe that’s just how an SUV is with the tip exit just below the lift gate. I think some sound treatments in the lift gate and spare tire well will knock most of it out.

 

[UNBROKEN]

I wanted deep and nice...not raspy and loud. I’ll get WOT vid in a bit.

 

[UNBROKEN]

I tried to get a decent launch but it shook the tires on the 1-2 shift.

Looks great and sounds very nice!

Teaching myself how to wrap stuff. I used transparent Vvivid air release film and knifeless tape to wrap the top of the heads to hide the chrome. I think it’s too dark so I’m gonna order a lighter smoke. It’s not perfect but I like figuring things out so maybe the next shot will be better...

Looks good to me. Maybe in person it looks too dark? But these pictures look great.

Working in sections when I have free time for audio prep. CLD and a CCF/MLV sandwich. Should have all 4 doors done by New Years. I went 100% with the CLD since I’m trying to target some exhaust noise...figure overkill would be ok here. I like the Dynapad too...super easy to work with. I still have to tape the joints but I got it in the rear floor and lift gate pretty good I guess. She’s gonna be Rolls Royce quiet when I’m done.

 

[DoingOK]

Damn impressive.

 

[UNBROKEN]

So after my new mufflers burned in I wound up with a touch of drone...about 187hz at 2000rpm. A little math, a little welding and bam...a pair of 1/4 wave resonators added and the drone is dead.

Reworked the upper headlight tint with a lighter version. I like it much better...you can still see the details inside the lights instead of looking like paint. Last pic is the old dark tint.

 

[DoingOK]

That does look better having some visibility to the lenses.

I like the lighter tint better. Does it cut down on output much?

There’s no tint over the actual bulbs. I only tinted the top chrome portion.
