Sound and Heat in Your Single Cab 4WD

Sound and heat can make a 4WD adventure an unenjoyable one. Car Builders takes you through some materials that make a significant impact on noise and heat levels in the cabin. From a Landcruiser, Triton to a Hilux, these deadening materials will dampen both internal sound and heat.

I've just finished my Unimog roof and doors. Massive difference. Floor, firewall and back wall to go...

Awesome! Happy touring 💪

Yes! Sound quality enhancement talk!

[@carbuilders1]

Thanks mate 👍

Installed stage one today after I flooded the car and removed the factory matting. I'll give the roof a go later with stage 1&2 for the heat. A single cab is not the quietest Ute around.

Good luck Troy 👍

I’ve recorded 83 decibels at 3k rpm on my hilux at 100kms/h. With a complete dual cab install, all the way up to windscreen and completely covering roof floor doors and rear wall what can I expect to see with same driving conditions after? Thanks!

How do would you remove the damping sheets if you needed to for body panel replacement or respray? Thanks

[@carbuilders1]

Hi Paul, it will require a fair bit of elbow grease however you can remove them by pulling them up. It is not easy because our sheets stick on well, you will have to use a fair bit of force but it has and can be done. Some of our customers have used heat guns and some have used dry ice to make it a bit easier.

@@carbuilders1 Hi thanks,I have read you can freeze it with liquid nitrogen which looks to be the best way.
