Replacing Factory Subwoofer in a Tahoe Yukon or Suburban 

Man U are the 🐐. This is exactly what I want. A little thump so I can hear it but not everyone outside

AWSOME. Just got my 4 door speakers and tweeters. Waiting on the sub woofer and the amp. !! Thanks these really help!

Awesome video, thanks for the tip about adding another foot of wiring. Looking to fix up my subwoofer soon!

That was a good and very helpful video. The instructions were clear and straightforward.

Just got a 04 burban I will be making this upgrade soon thanks for the video

Awesome video, very detailed for a novice like myself

Great job and very helpful

Hey steve do you know what watts are rated in the stock sub?

Got quick question I wanna add an amp and subs to my 02 tahoe z71, if I hook them up will I have to do anything to the stock amp it comes with or should it still work

Yes it was a helpful video but I just replaced the subwoofer in my 2001 Suburban with a SVC Blaupunkt, the sub box for the Tahoe is set in the panel vertically and appears to have a deeper box for the sub, on the other hand the suburban subwoofer box is set in the panel horizontally leaving more shallow space for the subwoofer to fit in. I was able to mount the new subwoofer by manufacturing a gasket ring so the sub would seat and be air tight....there’s plenty of Tahoe DIY videos but suburban videos seem to be few and far between. This video did help though

Hey what did u use to cut the box

I have a 2001 Chevy Tahoe currently have a pioneer single DIN head unit RP 2000.1 skar evl dual 10s... Ofc wire all the way around RCA cables on the opposite side. it was working very good and all of a sudden I heard a thump and no more Bass. I adjusted everything checked everything and everything is okay. the next morning my fuse was melted and I had no bass.I took my truck to a professional audio shop in the guy said my subwoofer is no good.they Are covered under two-year warranty so I ship them back.when I remove them from my truck I noticed a burnt black round circle underneath where the subwoofers were sitting.... I don't know if this has anything to do with my issue but just throwing it out there.... I bought me a new amp in a new subwoofer hoping to rule out a problem and I'm still having the same problem with my vehicle...everything turns on it has volts my RCA cables are working plus the settings on my head unit are set for a working subwoofer. But I still do not get the power output the amplifier thump AKa the bass I have no bass like if I have no subs at all...idk can someone please help me????

Is the sub located in the same spot on the 2005, bose system?

Are there any Amp modifications needed?

Steve, a nice video I need to get some of those trim tools thank you.👍👍👍🍺😁

Great video thanks 🙏🏽

I'll check that website out

just drill the holes before you wire ?

I'm curious... 01 and 02 had the subs back here, 03-06 (and newer) have them under the center console... BUT.... on the 03-06 trucks, is there still harness run back to this location? Namely a low pass harness meant for the sub? If so I'd love to put one back here as well.

I second this comment, thanks for the video

HEY, I know the black guy's work. Congrats, you are in good company!

So it will not fit without "botching" it? What did you use to make the hole bigger?

What kind of speaker wire did you use? I’m doing the same to my 01 Tahoe

not the right sub for that small box , no port?

If my 03 Tahoe doesnt have the 8inch factory sub and box in that location can one be installed from a 02 like yours?

You should have used a trim router and template, set the depth and your good to go.

Just read the other comments and answered my question.

Hey Tahoe Steve, where did you add the amp on the vehicle?

Nice an lil 🤔🤔😦👀😦 it looks like a mini jackhammer sub 👌👍😬 nice 🙂

I have an 04 base Tahoe,I have the prompt in the back there but no speaker,can I still put a subwoofer back there and tap into the tweeter speakers for it to work,and maybe put a amp back there as well?

You gotta use a solid speaker gasket not some squares spaced out, and get a hot glue gun and seal up the wire hole too, your prolly gonna have some air leaks lowering the sound quality.

Did you run that sub off of the factory amp? Or did you already have aftermarket amps already.

Do you also have an Amp or is this just with your factory setup?

hi man I searched all over the internet.I want a Subwoofer for my Yukon XL 2000 that fits with no playing around with the enclosure box or removing the ring cover of the sub. MB Quart DS1-204 and Kicker CompRT are very colse but in both cases I'll have to remove the ring cover of the sub some people call it beauty cover but it is very important not to remove it because of the immediate air leak or eventually over time. I just want a shallow mount sub that slides in with no modification. thanks man!

Thanks

THIS REALLY HELP ME OUT, I WAS ABLE TO SEE WHAT I NEEDED TO DO

I had to replace my subwoofer in my 2002 Suburban. I used a Planet Audio 8". It is nice. I wonder how it compares to JL Audio. The $30 subwoofer made a world of difference.

Good videoer

Question, did u replace the factory amp also?

I have 2006 Yukon,I don't think I have a speaker in mine,at least I know there's no sound coming out,what about tweeters,I wanna replace them to,even tho they Bose,can u help wit that

Should I take the insulation out??

Was there a amplifier next to it

there is no way that tiny lil box has the volume required for that JL

Where can I get the factory box?

You do have a amp going to it right. Not just stock

Do you need a amp or can you just replace it

My Yukon has a stock sub that was 2 ohm and yours you put in was 4 ohm, and I met this mechanic who said my yukon could not power a 4ohm sub but you said it sounds amazing. I guess your car can power 4 ohm?

What did you hook up the sub to?

Gonna add a amplifier see were that takes me

Screw on magnetic speaker ?

Which 8” model is that? I wanna make sure not to get one that’s too deep.

Do you have an amp on it?

What amp did u use and whats the model of the speaker used

Is this in a 07 tahoe?

This is best way...

Play it!

Wat size is it

5:16 don't want to be tethered while screwing! 😂

Unless that's a dvc sub it's not going to play to it's potential. The factory sub is a 2ohm unit. Wire a dvc to be a 2ohm load.

Yeah it's hell being tetherd to the car while you're "doing your screwing."

Hey Steve....that's a "D pillar" you skipped one. Just saying.

Great instructor On the contrary $200 on 1 sound piece too expensive will find cheaper geez

You sound like Tom Hanks lol

If my 03 Tahoe doesnt have the 8inch factory sub and box in that location can one be installed from a 02 like yours?
