  1. [How-To] Subwoofer Upgrade - Trim panel removal & Kicker install

    I had trim tools and used them. It might be possible to do without, but I would grab an economic set off of Amazon.
  2. 2023MY Standard Audio (6-speaker) Subwoofer Delete Mandatory and Functional Amps Removed

    Did you use the standard 6.75" 4ohm Kicker the rest of us used? I had a lot of room behind the sub.
  3. 2023MY Standard Audio (6-speaker) Subwoofer Delete Mandatory and Functional Amps Removed

    No issues at all... My sub fit flush to the enclosure and I pre drilled all the holes and put in wood screws to mount the sub. I did line the interior of the enclosure with sound deadening and also put a layer of sound deadening at each point where the enclosure mounted to the fender well to...
  4. Fake sub/amp...Now what?

    No, the tweeter/speaker setting is to tell the amp you are running more than 1 speaker on the channel and it's going to cause a low impedance. Like we have up front... If you changed that to just tweeter, or just speaker, you would tell the amp we have higher impedance than what we have. The...
  5. Fake sub/amp...Now what?

    At higher volumes you can over extend the drivers and they pop and distort. The bass blockers allow you to drive the speakers harder without distortion.
  6. [How-To] Subwoofer Upgrade - Trim panel removal & Kicker install

    I didn't find it too difficult. I just took my time and had it all apart in about 45 minutes. It was much quicker to back together.
  7. Fake sub/amp...Now what?

    The 4" in front make a big difference in midrange and high freq performance. Vocals are much better and it's just cleaner and clearer...
  8. Fake sub/amp...Now what?

    Pretty much, you do have to clip the ends of the speaker leads and strip the wire back to insert in the Kicker sub terminals. Very easy.
  9. Fake sub/amp...Now what?

    Just the front if you don't do any other changes in Forscan. There is a high pass filter in the programming already for the rear.
  10. Fake sub/amp...Now what?

    Yep that's the one... Also, if you haven't done the dash, the 4" up front can be swapped for another very noticeable improvement. These Infinity's with the bass blockers below are also plug and play and well worth the small investment. https://a.co/d/68audjD...
  11. Fake sub/amp...Now what?

    The Fusion amp from TeamEquip and the Kicker 6.75 4ohm sub are basically plug and play. But you do need to have Forscan and the proper dongle to connect it to turn the sub on. Look in the audio section for a number of tutorials on this subject.
  12. What rig / vehicle did you give up to get your Bronco?

    An extremely capable and relatively rare LJ Rubicon.
  13. Operation "Raise Factory Running Boards"

    No doubt that straightening up the clip nuts and getting them lined up and YES, starting them all before tightening them is the part that takes the most patience in this whole project. Just disassembling the step deformed at least half of my clip nuts and they were falling off the step as I...
  14. Mabbet 6.5” Pods Too Small

    Most car audio speakers have a very small xMax spec which allows them to function in an open baffle without over extending. In this case, as the enclosure is small, typically you will just be rolling off the bass sooner. Although it is possible to create a poor driver/enclosure combination...
  15. What’s the Max wheel spacer for a sasq bronco?

    1.25” is good…. If you then want it to look like much more, install the non Squatch fender flares. Bingo… 2” is too much.
  16. Mabbet 6.5” Pods Too Small

    I’m running the Hertz X-170 in mine, not noticing anything unusual about the bass response. Could it be better? Possibly, but it’s not obvious. I am not a fan of Kickers…. But I can’t imagine them being that “bad” based on the enclosure.
  17. Sasquatch vs not, for "soccer mom use"

    So many things, so far off base... Who are you to decide what she needs? If she wants it, that's need enough for me. Married for 35 years in April this year... Besides, even if it was just for the look, you can't get there for the $$ anyways. How much is a regear? Ever done one? if you tried...
  18. Sasquatch vs not, for "soccer mom use"

    I can afford it, why would I tell her no? You want her telling you no on something you want? I'm not afraid of anything, but if she wants something, she can have it, just like I can. And that's legit enough for me.
  19. Sasquatch vs not, for "soccer mom use"

    Forscan... Buy the year license. https://forscan.org/ Dongle needed to connect. https://a.co/d/gPrHAbF Lots of tutorials on YouTube.
  20. Sasquatch vs not, for "soccer mom use"

    I've got a garage full of big Jeeps, so the Bronco won't see much offroad duty, but it will pull our off-road trailer to some unique and hidden camp sites... That said, my wife said order it with Squatch or don't bother. SO we have a Squatch OBX and couldn't be happier. You can beef it up...
