2008 Ford F450 Super Duty Buildup - Rockford Fosgate Subwoofers

As you're reading this, the 2010 SEMA show is less than six weeks away and builders across the country are scrambling to get projects from pieces on the shop floor, to the prestigious SEMA stage. Such has been the case for K-Daddyz Kustoms and Shocker Motorsports, both in Bakersfield, California, where over the last several years, wet paint and last minute wrenching has been a common occurrence.

Take a look at how this huge Ford truck went from stocker to shocker and if your ride is in need of some customizing, contact the companies in the source box for more info.
