Please my guy shell out for a great aftermarket alarm that doesn’t integrate with the ODB system thats added on just to protect against people that might want to steal that thing…

Probably should’ve used nyloc nuts on all the new bolts. Hope the lock washers hold🤞🏻
We need some traffic/public bass reactions from this beast!!!

Yes!
Pro tip for the wiper arm removal - back off the nut a couple of threads, pull up/out on the wiper arm, then give the nut a tap with a hammer, don't have to hit it too hard for it to come off.

Pro tip, just push down on the arm where it flexes 10-15 times

you literally have to press down on the hinged part and it will automatically loosen it

If you bend the wiper arm back where it hinges they usually just pop off without unnecessary force 👀
On that wiper arm bracket I would add a 3/16" steel plate behind it that sandwiches the firewall.
Taking the bass van to the event was a worth while deal in my opinion. Youll never be able to push it to it maximum potential unless your able to work your way up to that point. The event allowed you to do a soft to mid grade starting demo, but you already knew that there would be areas that would need addressing to ensure the van doesnt fall apart, and also makes the bass much cleaner, and deeper overall. Better to find out now, than later.. Awesome Video..
I'm just wondering if anyone in the bass competitive world has ever built a setup off a retired armored truck.... It's already beefed up from factory. That would be a perfect platform to build off of

Yea, and they're already set up to haul loads of weight because of coins. You could do the same trick exo did by stripping it down some first and probably have loads of vehicle weight rating headroom.

BOSS Audio did an armored money truck in 1999. There’s a video of it on Reddit but it might be found in other places too.
For the windshield wiper repair: if those nuts back off, you should look into stainless rivnuts and locktite.
I'm from the island of jamaica,i follow all your vids and i believe that youre such a genuine person.aint no one can hate on you.

I could not agree more my friend. Sadly though there are too many hateful people on the Earth that we have to share our time on this planet...
Love that the build is ALIVE. Just a small suggestion: you’re gonna want loctite on that hardware.
I’m an Automotive tech of 22 years. Next time you have an issue removing wiper arms. Put the nut back on a few full turns and hit it with a dead blow. If you don’t have a dead blow. But the socket on the nut and hit the socket with a hammer. They will pop right off.

Such a great video. Have watched you for years and keep me wanting more. The full explaination of everything you do is so well thought out even when a mistake or miscalculation is made it's explained away and repaired. Love every second! Thank you!
Man I love the positive energy even though you are faced with so many challenges. You do more than just talk about car audio you give out life lessons and ways we can achieve our own goals. Thanks EXO for being that guy we can look up to 💪🏾💪🏾
You should try getting an aftermarket aluminium resevoir.

Was thinking the same thing especially if the plastic one keeps breaking. Unless of course he make some kinda cushion or brace to help absorb all that. Guess we will wait and see. 😎👍
Really looking forward to those door panels!
If the future taking the wipers off open them up/lift wipers. The pivot point adds extra tension to it
Ive been watching all your videos for years and im so happy to see your channel growing. Good luck fixing up your van!
All that damage that quickly 😂 can't believe it! I'm pretty sure you've got the windshield thought too, I mean, you aren't even tuned yet 😅 love it👍
Love it! Damage report and upgrades all in one video.
I got to say I really love the build Bruce however the approach to building a loud demo vehicle from a stock chassis never works out reason being is because these vehicles off the line are not designed to handle that kind of vibration no matter how you reinforce it. You should have started out with a brinks transport vehicle or H1 hummer because the cab of these vehicles are designed to handle that kind of pressure. My trunk even though it was one of the loudest on Earth it could not hold up to the pressure of 162db+ Burps and everything just eventually broke hence I retired. I wish you all the luck but it's a never-ending money pit brother.
Exo left the building when that wiper arm went 😮 hope you didnt hurt ya self to bad
Great video
I always wondered what toll this took on a vehicle. Especially when your north of 150+. Thanks for sharing this.
You should add sound deadning in the windshield wiper motor area as well
"This. Bracket. Wont. Come. Off. HEEEYAAA!!!!" Goes flying. OMG that made me laugh so hard
Lol My four 12's loosen interior screws, EXO says hold my beer and breaks welds all over the place ha ha.
Love all the support you are receiving in the comments. You are amazing EXO you keep doing things the way you are doing them and trust me .. life has a plan for you . Keep safe and keep bassin !! 😊
Excellent job from day 1 till now. Only thing I don’t understand with all these builds is solid steel to build and frame box and expect soda can thick metal to survive in the front 😂
❤Hey!!! EXO!!I KNOW THAT WHEN YOU BROKE THAT WINDOW IT WAS EXCITING! YOU WERE PROBABLY SMILING EAR TO EAR😂😂👍 CONGRATS !! MY DUDE GREAT JOB I STILL KNOW YOUR TUNING IT UP NOW👍👍💪🤩
Wow, that beautiful shop is so cluttered.
One of the best personalities on KZread, you the man EXO!
This is amazing, great job EXO!!!!!
4:59 is my life in 5 seconds.
Good work
totally awesome dude. thanks for the share exo.
This is the part of the build that I really enjoy. It works and is awesome, but you turn it up bit by bit and then fix what breaks. Rinse. Repeat. I can't wait to see what breaks after the next show!
This is the first bass build I've followed, great system and it gives me tingles seeing them subs pushing air
I cant lie brother, I look forward to your videos all the time!!! Keep kicking ass!!!
Love the build. Not sure if you knew that the Nissan NV was the passenger vehicle most likely to roll when it came out(what an award!) because it's center of gravity. I like driving and I don't know how you are with it, so I wanted to offer some advice. (not you but other NV owners)You don't want really sticky tires (unless you can promise yourself you won't break the most important rule below and only use them for braking, and not for any aggressive driving) because at a certain stickiness level they'll want to just flip the van any more intense steering input. Go slow around turns (duh :D) Most importantly: Do not swerve to avoid an accident. Anything beyond a little bit of steering input will essentially force the single tire that has the load to perform almost all the braking which increases the braking distance. That's why most truckers are taught to not swerve, but rather just focus on braking.
It happens to all of us, my friend. It's amazing what bass does to the vehicle with all that power.
awesome!!’ look forward to meeting you one day!! lol as i was typing this you mentioned the sundown show. would love to see you there.
Can’t wait to see/meet you in Springfield in August at the GP show!!
Amazing work Bruce
I’m proud of u EXO. 👏👏👏👏
Hey bud looking forward to seeing ya in Springfield. Hope I get the privilege of seeing and hearing this beast. See ya in August.
Happy for him! 👍🏼💯
This is next level stuff man. Congratulations on all your hard work!
Exo knocking the socks off and car parts! My main motivation for changing my bass up is you bud!
Love the build man huge fan
broooo just so your aware love what you did with [ Your A Strange Animal ] i flipped when i noticed hahaha
I was waiting this video :) !!!! ❤❤❤❤
Happy Friday
Love the new build brother.
Oh yessssss..... I love getting exo notifications
Love the build EXO. Amazing you went to the trouble to over engineer that area of the firewall. Hope the Honda works out ok, bless you greeting the Deer. ❤❤
Wiper blade truck, push the spring part that makes them stand up. If you do that it releases some tension. They are on a tapered bolt so the tighter they are, the harder to get off
Keren subwoofer nya, mantap, Terimakasih teman sudah berbagi cerita, selamat beraktivitas tetap semangat dan salam sukses👍❤
Good build
love the videos. cant wait for the next one!
Keep up the hard work! 💪
Love ya man!!!!
I need fans like that

Amazing job on this build! Your determination and perseverance are incredibly inspiring. Having some offroading experience personally, if you haven't already, I would add another lock nut on the other end of the roof braces, without the nut to hold the threads tight against the rod, the vibrations will eventually strip em out. Congrats on making your dream build a reality!!!
Make your way to Texas Heat Wave!
Take your rear leaf springs off and have a spring shop. Add a leaf get them off those rubber stops. It’ll ride better.
Love it & love ya man 🤙
Another great upload! I can't wait for the next!
Hey buddy, just wanted to say congratulations bro!! Ive been watching you for a long time now and i gotta say im proud and impressed! You are the true definition of a basshead! Ive been a basshead since the 90s and you have done an excellent job of showing people what its all about! No one else even comparea to you buddy! I love the channel and will always be here watching and maybe someday ill get a chance to meet ya and experience the build first hand!
Man, don't forget threadlocker next time. Can't be too safe! Might also take the dash off and get things reinforced, save yourself some grief! Might have been better to get an aftermarket brake reservoir and mount it somewhere stiff and much more secure. Gotta make do with what you already have!
so happy i caught your uploaded early! love your videos !
Love the build very epic 😎 can't wait to see how big a number it's going to do in a competition .
Hey bro I heard about the front suspension, glad to hear you're getting it sorted! Such an awesome build, Ill see you in August in Mo!
the fun has just begun indeed !
Hell yeah!
Cant understand how ur "only" at 655k subs. Ur videos are 10/10. And im in love with ur build. I have been inspired to build a larger building myself. 🔥🔥🔥
Love u EXO
Nice that you fixed your wiper bracket.
Woop Woop new uploaddddd, always looking for a new vid from ya!!!
Yay!!! 😎. Fingers crossed driver side door.
Love this build mann 12 freakin 18s sheesh🔥
I look at you with admiration, sir!
❤ IT 👍😎. AND THE WORK CONTINUES 🎉🎉

Yes mate love the vids
Starting to become a real frankeinstein build, nuts and bolts man haha :D
Get a nutsert rivet gun for the wiper brackets. Yes I am typing as I am watching lol sick build
When you do the test . Watch your intake . Try to see if they have a aluminum replacement. Amazing build brother 👍
Exo racking up the views and likes in true bass head fashion! Got the throwed together Nissan van or whatever shaking n wobbling imagine another 12 18's and more amps : 0
Dude nice
Sooooo Badazzz.....All Love from my family to yours!!!!
So nicee brooo keep it upp, huge audio fan
Lets Go!!!
I don't mean to laugh but damn lmao, I knew you'd beat that van to death.
You are such a boss bro, build so big not even the van can handle it lmfao
Your build has gave me so many ideas for mine along the way keep killing it bro love your energy
And here where the work begins.
Lmao bro went flying pulling that wiper… smack that bad boy with a dead blow or a plastic mallet on the nut when you loosen it should break the rust or surface tension to come right off my fav tools are mt hammers
Put the nut back on the wiper arm but don’t tighten it. Then tap it with a hammer a couple times using the right size socket. That usually frees the wiper arm.
Love you bro!
Well done love to see a detailed look at the tuning side of the build. ( DSP ) .CHEERS FROM AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺
