I saw on a truck somewhere where they had sub boxes mounted INSIDE where the jump seats fold down from (i should mention i have a 04 FX4 xlt) and they got rid of the jump seats. Does anyone know where I can get this conversion kit from or am I going to have to try and do it myself?

 

i believe it's a home done kit, shouldn't be too hard to do... i would just have some fun with some fiberglass... cutting the hole the seat dissapears into, larger... but i would have to see what you have to be able to say for sure...

 

a guy on trs just used the whole seat and cut a hole in it.

 

heres a link to something like your talking about...dont know if it will help or not

I HATED fort stewart left there July 09 . lol Good luck with your system build.

 

ya i did this with my truck. you dont need to take the seats out what i did is i made a shallo box to where i can still put the seats down so i can fit one person back there

 

i think he has one of the earlier rangers, with the hideaway seats, but not 100%

 

I did the same as dabumblebee, made a shallow box and put 2x10's in it. my seats are the fold up kind (not sure if that is what is considered "hideaway" as they are just folded against the rear of the cab)
the seats wont go down though, the speakers I had are too thick so I had to make a box big enough.

but with a certain type of shallow speaker you can do it right, where the seat would still be able to fold down. not sure who you could possibly fit back there though with the speakers in place, as you would have zero legroom.
my stereo is one of my favorite things about my truck, it rocks, even with stock speakers in doors. which I'll be changing out here pretty soon (they arent blown, I just want better sound from them)

looking to go as large as I can in the rear doors, and stay with standard size in the front, and will be adding 2 tweeters on the front dash area. (maybe 2 more in the rear area, but not sure about that yet)
Ive also noticed that if you dont use the 2 storage compartments in the rear doors (I use mine), you can fit a decent sized speaker there, possibly a small sub speaker, then you could forego the enclosure.

 

hey bumblebee is there any chance you could post some pics of your encloser? would love to see them. thanks!

 

Lucas Hi! if you get back any responce I'd love to know as well. I just bought an 2004 xlt with the fold down seats on the sides and would also like to put woofer there.

Thanks Scott

 

Hi ford ranger owners out there. I have a question for you all ,maybe one person. do you or the guy/girl that built this sub box know who they are?
This is exactly what I want to do and would like some more info and pics too.

Please anyone that could push me in the right direction would be appreciated!

Thanks Scott

 

sorry man but you have the rear fold down seats...as I have the side fold down ones.my bad!
