Some of you may remember my previous post in this forum from my POV. I now work for 911 Custom, an install shop in Olathe, KS that specializes in just about every kind of law-enforcement/emergency equipment installation out there. You name it, we've done it.


Here's a little gem. Clark County (Kansas) recently put this Ford F150 Raptor into service. This truck is bad-ass, simply put.


Specs:


Lights (Whelen):


--48" Liberty Duo Color lightbar (red/blue with amber traffic advisor)


--Two M4s on front bumper (one red, one blue)


--Six Vertexs in red/blue (two front, two rear, two taillights)


--Two PAR-36 super-LED lightheads on front safari bar


Noise (Whelen):


--HHS2200 handheld siren/light control


--Alpha 12 secondary siren


--Howler low frequency siren


--Dual SA315 100w speakers


Equipment:


--Data 911 computer & video recording system


--Noptic spotlight-mounted thermal imaging system


--Digital Ally DVM-750 Video mirror recording system


--Custom-made console to fit factory specs


--ReTrax retractable tonneau cover


--MNStar Enforcer wiring harness, power center, fuse block, etc.


Here's some pics to salivate over:

Very Sharp truck. I'm just curious about the HHS2200 instead of a regular siren / switch controls. I'm guessing to save some space. I think I just find my new screensaver.
 
Any video ??
 
"Shocks, pegs....lucky"


I would give my lefty for that truck no questions asked. Is that truck really going to be used off-road and junk or just a lot of show?
 
nice truck,good job on the install just not a fan of the placement of the front vertex
 
Looks awesome. The only thing I would change would be to pedestal-mount the M6s on top of the kicker bar, next to the fog lights. The tabs are already there and they wouldn't be so low.

They've had a large amount of drug and drug money seizures. US 160, US 283, and US 183 are big meth and marijuana routes in that part of the state.

I'll try and get some more of the HDR stuff posted today. There's a ton of stuff to gawk at, but I didn't get nearly as much as I wanted. I do have a shot (or two) of the rear Duo part in action. And those LIN18 corners are bright as hell!

Oh it definitely will be. All their other vehicles are Tahoes, and the county they're running in is primarily rural and near the Oklahoma border (red dirt country), so with the amount of drug trafficking that they deal with, I'm sure they'll make full use of those bad-ass shocks and 38" radials.

that is SICK!!!!!!!!! did u get a video of it?

i really like the custom console and think it's interesting how u mounted the radio heads sideways.


i'd def love to see more installs from your shop

No video unfortunately. WIll have some in the future of other installs (I hope, as soon as I get a new camera that is). The custom console was really slick. The fun part: it's mounted with VELCRO. We didn't want to drill into the factory console body and ruin it, so we used velcro to keep things accessible. And I'll for sure be posting more installs. In fact, I think I'll post one from another one we did about two weeks ago.

Actually, the original order called for four of the PAR-36 super-LED heads on the safari bar (since there are four pedestal spots to begin with), but halfway through, they made a trip up to see progress and decided to go with only two of them instead of four, and the M4s had already been mounted at that point. So we were stuck with what we had (personally, I'd have put the M4s on the grill and gone with that, but yeah...).

We're already getting some in. This is one of the new unmarked ones (Soundoff Pinnacle and LED hideaways).

I know that you're not a Sound Off dealer, but this is what Cal Fire did with their Raptor and some Sound Off Ghosts (above/below the FORD and on the mirrors).

Actually, we're not a dealer for anybody that I'm aware of, but I'm not the owner of the shop, I'm just the IT guy who does the website, takes the pics, and plays with the equipment on his truck when he's not running calls. ;P


We do have to order the Whelen stuff through OMB Express Police Supply in Olathe (about a mile from us), but they'll usually send us the install. I believe there's a Whelen sales rep in Olathe as well, but not really sure.

The company website led me to believe you are dealers/sales reps.


Conrad Fire used to be a Federal Signal dealer (I bought some stuff from Jim Conrad back in the 80s when I was with Shawnee FD as a firefighter/EMT). There used to be another company out on the west side of Olathe that was mostly PSE/Code 3. Back then Whelen was relatively unknown in the area, I can't remember anyone running Whelen equipment.

Busch & Associates is the Whelen sales rep, but we (911 Custom) are not affiliated with them. I believe OMB gets their Whelen stuff from them though...

Oh my... I very much dislike Fords, but this... I HAVE TO HAVE ONE!!!

I've noticed that a lot these days, "I absolutely hate Fords, but I love their new (insert vehicle here)" If you like their vehicles, why do you hate the brand? Just because you're a Chevy/Dodge guy?
