hey Russo what's going on man just started following you just got me a 2018 Tacoma looking to do some upgrades I have a question for you I'm going to get a 3in spacer to level the front with the 3-inch block to put in a rear what I need to upgrade my shops for that or if you have any suggestions on a decent suspension lift I'm all ears
You can email me for more detail jesserizoyt@gmail.com but do you plan on doing any offroading? Or your never going to touch dirt it’s an important question lol that’s y
Man I gotta tell you, im an idiot when it comes to installs, but watching your videos, i feel like i can do anything! Awesome videos for Tacomas, especially 3rd gens. Keep it up man!
U got it my friend if u ever have questions. U can always email me as well I leave my email in all my videos description box :)!!! Thanks for the support it means a lot to me
Great video. The only thing I saw that you missed was you didn't tell the novices about setting the level on the high level adapter. And also, the sound dampening material is really a matter of preference. I do have to point out though, that it does take up space, so it alters you airspace inside the subs enclosure. A better alternative that I have personally used is rubberized undercoating. It deadens the vibrations to the box while not really using us a significant amount of internal air space.
Aight this is getting freaky bruh, literally every time i find a part i want for my 2016 TRD Off-Road i come on to RU-vid and you're on my recommended with the exact parts i want! lmfao crazy shit. Love the channel bro keep the vids coming. Taco looks great!
A tip for this install. You want to keep the remote wire and the power wire separate from the rca cables. Ideally you would like to run the rca cables on the other side of the truck cabin. This will prevent noise from the current going through the power wire.
I like to put an inline toggle switch on my remote line for the amp. This way I can turn it off when I have my kids or other passengers in the back. Great video, very detailed.
I’ve done that in the past in another car lol it works out good to be honest 👍 , the cool thin on this amp I don’t recommend it cuz it’s not that good but it’s nice that it comes with the bass control knob so it kinda works as the toggle switch I can control the bass and just lower it all the while in the same scenario, Thanks for watching my friend :)
The foam in the sub box is called polyfill it tricks the subwoofer into thinking it in a bigger enclosure which makes it hit harder and get those low notes
Nice job, I had to educate myself awesome video. I did my 09 Tacoma DCLB had to take out the back plastic panels for Sub Amp Kicker 11dx 500.1 mono amp. powering 2 10" kicker subwoofers. Also new rockford prime d class 4 channel front & rear speakers polks 6.5. Still sounds great after 5 years.
Hi Jesse!!! My husband is definitely going to love your video lololol!!! A subwoofer and a amplifier Lolol!!! That is okay if the video is long!!! I got your back!!! Lolol!!! I did not know that the seat belt can come off that easy!!! The clips make it so much easier!!! Good idea with the clothes hanger!!! I love how you explained what socket to use for the bolts!!! I always wondered what or where you can use the RCA cables!!! Good point on using the double sided video tape!!! The speaker fit perfectly in side of the subwoofer!!! Thank you for explaining why you used a template or wood for the amplifier!!!! Thank you for explaining the grounding point!!! I loved your video Jesse you are soo detailed I so love that!!! You keep everything so clean where theirs not a lot of wiring showing!!!! I agree with you no copyright Lolol Xoxo Pam 💖♥️♥️💖
Great video, but are your speakers still running off the stock head unit? I wanted to see how you go about connecting speakers to amp as well. Probably need another adapter in the back with more outputs
Nice install but next time I’d probably use ofc wire that cca gets really hot and it won’t last you in the long run. you loose voltage between the battery and the amp let’s say maybe a volt or 2. And you won’t be getting all the power you paid for it takes power to make power.
Had that done on my 18 taco limited one piece of amp original sub a tube box behind my seat on the floor could not get the base on the factory door speakers .....decided 4 jbl door speskers stealth box 2 pieces of amps under neath the seat eq in glove box and tube box behind my seat .now heads turn when i play .great .
Great video Jesse! I've been thinking about doing this to my 2020 sport. I don't want a new head unit but more power and a sub along with speaker swaps.
U got it my friend as recommendation for the amp I would probably go with a rockford fosgate or a kicker amp and for the amp kit the one I used is ok but I would shoot for a rockford or a kicker amp kit but if u just want a little added bass the one I used is ok, and as far as the box I used that one is perfect and the subwoofer I used is good and the line output converter is good to use 👍 😁👍
That one is a little more complicated I’m sure there is company’s out there now that have adapters for it but If not you may have to do a full on stereo swap and everything for yours :/
Great vid! Did you make a separate hole in the grommet coming through the firewall for the power or did you feed it with the other stock cable coming through it? I'll tackle this this weekend. Thanks.
I think I showed it in the video but yes you can cut a small incision in the rubber boot that goes threw the fire wall there’s other wires that go threw there
Does this adaptor work for the 2018 non JBL Tundra as well. I've seen videos that it seem much more complicated than this on the tundra, but head unit looks about the same.
Hey y’all if y’all decide to get the power line output converter the one linked in the description does not fit the 2020+ Tacoma’s I bought one and it doesn’t fit
The link to the enclosure says you need to remove the plastic behind the seat, it appears you didn't remove yours. Do you have any problems closing the seat?
Hello, just saw your video and I wanted to thank you. It was just what I was researching. My question is that I have a 2019 Tacoma will that adapter work? The details when I went to order it says up to 2018. Please let me know and again ty the video was a lot of help and answered many questions.
I want to use a 5 channel amp so I can add punch to my other kicker speakers that I installed (2x 6x9 front, 2x 6.5 rear) thinking of using the Planet Audio AC1800.5. Is there a 5 channel version of the plug and play line output converter you used for this mono application? Also thinking of using a Audio Control LCTi to eliminate base drop-off at higher volumes. Do you think this is necessary or is a good idea? Thanks, Jesse. Your videos are killer!!!
Great description! Will this work with the trd pro? There is already a jbl woofer and amp but I am afraid to mess with it. I want to replace it with the kicker c. Any suggestions? And how do I order the sub woofer box?
Got a question, hopefully you can help me. I have a 2015 Double Cab with Entune non JBL. I want to redo the front stock speakers to component, delete rear speakers, and add a 10" sub behind the seat. Keeping the stock HU. What would you recommend for a budget setup. Want something better than stock without breaking the bank.
I know this is an old video but is there any chance you have the dimensions of the sub enclosure? They are $180 now and I can build it. I did see you upgraded already if you still have it I'll buy it from you.
Hi Jesse, great channel and content. Is this converter the same for the 2020? I know the head unit is different, but I know you have upgraded to the 2020 as well. Please let me know. Thanks!
Liked your video but you need to find some music you can play without getting hit, I'm sure everyone would love to hear it after the installation, I am Disappointed wanted to hear it!!!
You welcome 👍👍👍, & it’s helpful to have power cable from battery. To amp running on opposite side of the rca and remote wires 👍 just a tip I forgot to mention
Here is the video on it ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7o-q9P2UCF0.html But I know have a different setup a midland here’s the video to that ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OUwqinTdnzw.html
Anyone care to share the dimensions of this box? I may just custom fit one if I can't get the dimensions here. Any info would be greatly appreciated!!!
For $100 you can use the Bose Soundlink II. it’s a Bluetooth speaker that just may sound better than the system upgrade many have done. It’s portable too so you can use it on your tailgate and anywhere else your imagination will bring you.
I have links to everything in the description box everything is from amazon besides the subwoofer box, I recommend getting a better amplifier though this one isn’t good at all
