Hi all, first off this is my 1st post here on DodgeForum!

Im looking to see if anyone has used sound deadening materials in the doors or other places around the truck. I have a 04 2500 Double cab Long bed laramie. Its got 190,000 miles on it so i know squeaks and rattles are normal. Just looking to quiet it up a bit. Dynamat seems way too expensive for what it is... maybe I'm wrong??

Any advice is well appreciated!

Not only is it expensive, it's a PITA, labor-wise. I considered it in mine, but the material cost and the labor involved cooled that off pretty quickly.

 

It's not as fancy as Dynamat, but I used a roll of butyl rubber for sound dampening in my '06 QC when I upgraded the sound system. I was able to find a 6"X 75' roll for less than $10 at my local home depot. It gave off a slight smell but cleared up in less than a day. I suggest checking out the duct insulation section at your local home improvement store. I've seen guys use the sheet foam/foil rolls and fiberglass mats before and it does the trick.

 

I used boom mat. The sheets and the spray. Spray works well in doors.
