It is really amazing how much bass you get out of a 8" speaker under the pass seat. I have a ZR2 with the BOSE system, the sub really made it sound great.
Awesome! It is totally surprising! We love our setup now. Very balanced
just started watching the video and had to stop to say how impressed I am on how you handled that feedback on the wrench! thanks for your kindness! I have my own channel and have had some not so good comments and I just chose not to answer because I dont think I could say anything nice! Again thanks for being a good example! now back to the video!!!
Thank you for the kind words! Appreciate your post and your support! It's never easy!
Thanks for everything you’re doing in ICU. I’m sure it’s very tough. You guys have so much energy. Keep it up!
Thank you so much!!
I actually have had this exact woofer on my Amazon list for months. I guess now I don't have any more excuses not to install it. Great job as always 👍.
Awesome! Do it! You'll love it!
You still like the woofer ?
Love!
When I first saw y'all doing mods on your Jeeps, I thought it was pretty kool, but then I started paying attention to what y'all are trying to do. I couldn't help but to keep watching and wanting to do those things to my own Jeep JK. My husband has helped me out a lot with my mods and most of them came from watching y'all. I'm happy y'all continue to change your Jeeps even though you've done something similar. It's nice to know everything is interchangeable, like you don't want that look anymore and BOOM, new look. Thank you for being you.
Thank you so much for your support and kind words! We love working on our jeeps!
Was fixing all of the speakers on my Tj and wasn’t planning to put a sub till I saw your video ! Now I will know I will have the same space even with a sub in the Jeep! Nice video love the content.
Awesome! You're going to love it! Cheers!!
Not gonna lie, when my wife had you guys on I was like, " who the hell is this?".. now I find myself watching you guys all the time. Grown to love your videos and jeeps mods. Thank to you I got my wife a JK 3" lift🤘
Welcome aboard! Thanks for the support
Id like to personally thank you for what you do professionally about 5 months after this video was made i found myself in the icu when covid came very very close to killing me i was in the icu 2 months you are a hero if you think so or not.
I use a good quality pipe wrench to loosen and tighten my jam nuts, the adjustable wrenches tend back off when tightening or loosening jam nuts from my experience.
Nice nice! Thank you for the advice
Great install as always, stay healthy and safe cheers!
Thank you! Stay safe!
That's nice that a sub woofer is made to fit under the rear seat. I made my box with a 10" woofer in my rear seat. It's hidden and made with quick release wires so the seat can come out with ease. Kinda wish I looked around for this so I didn't hack my YJ rear seat. Nice install video 👍
Thats amazing! Good idea!
Michael the bass output from your box vs the underseat AIO unit I am sure if built correctly will outperform the underseat sub.
IN the rear seat?
My Jeep is running two 10s at 3000 watts. And another 1000 watts for mids and highs. Helps shake off the mud
Literally laughed out loud!
Gonna have to pick one up. Thanks guys
You won't regret it
Great video! Santa brought me the same speaker. I do have to flip you shit about that socket set you have, it's time to upgrade haha. Quick tip for anyone running several different accessories, install a fuse block terminal. Run one line to the battery then all of your accessories from the block. Cleans things up and easy to add lights etc. Keep up the good work.
haha thanks for the feedback!
My 97 TJ would look amazing with this.
Alan B from Chicago IL
Thanks!
I have been looking into putting a small sub in my TJ under the passengers seat . I don't use the back seat so installing it in that area isn't going to work for me . Nice install Greg and my only suggestion is to solder the wires instead of using crimp connectors . Take care and be safe guy's .
You should totally do it! Thanks for the suggestion! For whatever reason, I'm more of a crimping guy, although I do solder some wires, just not a fan of the fumes (that cause cancer)
I got 2 12s in my tj. It beats the block down. Those powered subs just add a little dimention.
Haha we had a 4000 watt 2 12 setup in a prior vehicle. We may be getting old lol
How are those dana 44's holding up with the 38's ? I could not find a vid if you regear.
Gonna have to upgrade the sound system now haha now that we know how to do so!
Haha! Ooops
Curious if it would fit under front seats? How are you all still liking it at driving noise level?
Cool video guys! Glad I found your channel.
Thank you for joining us!
Nice! Had to too that myself on my TJ otherwise sound like a 1950
Great install you guys 😃
Glad you like it!
So it looks like its been a year.. how's the sub and amp held up? Are you happy with it?
Fixn to get me one of those. Great video. Hello from TEXAS.
Do it! Cheers!
Great idea for my tj too!!!
I love it!
Curious how well this held up. Looking at the possibility of getting one for my jeep that I just bought. Would love some insight from you or anyone. Also ideas on aftermarket radios. I have not been thinking about radios in about 20 years or more so a little out of the game.
Held up AMAZING. Don;t overthink it just do it!
@@Garagecouple I actually got it in and installed about 2 weeks ago. I love it. Thanks.
Great video! Do you guys still like this little under seat sub? Can you hear it with the top down on the interstate?
Nice install and another nice upgrade to the Jeep more bass do you recommend the subwoofer been looking into one of those compact ones to add under my seat as well
Yes! We love it! Let us know if you have any questions!
Where do I find the signal wire? I know my aftermarket kenwood has about 20 different wires behind it when I looked yesterday. I would like to try this mod on my 99 since I don't even have the subwoofer in the console
the best part of the video is where you demonstrated what that sounds like in that small space....you know..if there are unwanted vibrations and things like that..............
Thanks for the 🎥
No problem 👍
I’m in a Walmart parking lot staring at this jeep lol cool page
Come say hello!
“Soooo smooth it’s gonna fit so well underneath”
Lol
So does this jeep have both the console sub and the Rockville sub as well?
Yep and it sounds amazing
Вы как всегда классные!!!! Молодцы!
Cheers
Thanks for sharing been debating a similar upgrade for my LJ. Is that an 8 or 10 inch Rockville? Stay safe...
Nice! We have an 8 in the tj and 10 in the jk. We love both
I was just thinking about putting a sub in my jk and then the notification for this video popped up
Haha *reads your mind*
Can you guys tell me how it’s held up? I’ve seen so many bad reviews on them breaking and poor sound.
I’m ready to see you regear that jku so I can learn how to do it!!! Maybe a gear giveaway too😂😂
Coming soon!
Great video u guyz....👍
Thank you!
I have a huge wrench like that...i just keep it in the back area all the time
A few things to improve. Your video was pretty good. I would ass some flex sleeve yo all the cables to protect them. Also add some high heat tessa tape to the power wire to add even more protection. The ground wire should be either a factory ground or a dedicated ground when the paint has been removed to allow for max contact. Lastly having the sub just loose under the seat is a fire hazard. Make a abs mounting plate that can be mounted to the seat bolts. It will provide a nice platform yo securely mount the amp. Best wishes on future installs.
Have you had any problems of it getting too hot mounted under the seat?
No issues at all! Sounds amazing!
Let me first take this time to thank you, as an attending physician - during these uncertain times we find ourselves in.. Thank you for working the front lines... God Bless. Now back to Jeeps - thanks for this video as I just picked up the complete Polk Audio system for my 4 year CJ5 resto and I was looking at the Powered JBL Sub as an option for a little more Base that I can tuck away under my rear seat.
Do you have any plans on upgrading your steering with a Hyrdo Assist... well do you have any plans for some off the grid adventures? I'm actually looking into the TaxaOutdoors WB trailer to tow behind my CJ.
Thank you for the support! Not easy working the ICU shifts, currently have 3 covid patients, one just updated his LST saying he wants to be DNI. Hes more and more hypoxemic on HF NC at max settings. Really hate where this is going.
On a lighter note, we don't have any plans to updae to hydro assist, it hasn't been giving us any issues with the 38s. We hope to go off roading soon, but I've been working close to 80 hours each week (and only edited this minutes before it posted). Hope all is well! Cheers
As the say in south beach, My Friend I'm on the backside/backend with Cognizant. Keep up the great work on the front side. Looking forward to what's next on the list of never ending mods.
Was there any grounding issues using that bolt for the ground wire?
Nope!
Yay another gc video
Thanks for the support!
Hello. Nice work! You will not get zaped from a 12v battery, but there is a risk of short circuit and the battery might explode. Allways be careful with batteries😊 Have a nice day
Does it come with that inline fuse? I just ordered the 8 inch woofer and am wondering if I need to provide my own fuse for the battery connection.
It comes with it!
Yall are amazingly cute.
First time watcher. Even tho I know how to do all this it's amazing seeing couples work on cars together.
I recently got w single cab shirt bed truck and have limited space.
All my other cars have 2 12s and 2 10s and single 12. But in my small cab I got the kicker 10 in sub and Amp in one. Alittle pricey at $320 but well worth it.
Thank you for your kind words!!
What fender flares are you using?
Metalcloak!
Hey! So does anybody know what the brand name and model of the wheels on that TJ? Loving them!
Yup! Check out rocktrix rims
Good videos
Glad you like them!
Wow the ICU always some going on there i was in the ICU back in June for 4days only tho i rolled my darn golf cart and it landed on my face as i was trying to sit up breaking my neck in 4 places i crushed my c7 15% and broke t2 t3 and t4 but ill still here walking and jeeping im still healing but just feel i need to keep moving
Sorry to hear! Hope you have a quick and easy recovery!
. Thank you guys i went in june 20th out the 25th bought my first jeep july 1st on the boat for the 4th im trying to not let it slow me down to much
Love hearing this! Good! Keep up the good work!
@@Garagecouple thanks you guys as well!
WOW. Sounds like your next mod should be an inclinometer for your golf cart.
The RCA cables (that plug into the back of your aftermarket radio) are your low level inputs. The high level inputs would be if you connected speaker wires to the thin wires connected to the molex plug that has the power/ground/remote-turn on coming out of it, that snaps into the your powered (amp) subwoofer. Great videos, looking for the link to your beautiful wife.
Awesome! Thank you for the support!
I'm back lol... nice video as always
Welcome back! Thanks for your spport
Not a problem I'll watch and comment and like always to try to help.. thank yall
He’s a dr. Now I understand lol
I’m surprised the internet experts didn’t mention a crows foot on a torque wrench for jam nuts.
lol
Another great video garage couple. Only thing I don’t understand is why the hate with the thumbs 👎🏼. Then I thought it had to be the nasty leaves or Greg’s indecent exposure of his crack 😂. Thanks for the all you guys do and stay safe 🤙
Thank you for your support! HAHAHA you caught him!
Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice very nice guys
Thank you!!!
you guys are doing great but i would look into getting some mics for yourself if you havent already :-) have to crank up the volume to hear you guys. great channel!
Thank you! Funny story, the reason the audio came out the way it did was because we were experimenting with a new mic, and had it pointed the wrong way! Lol, lesson learned!
Thanks for the tip!
Love the flag🇦🇲 from Montreal, Canada
Awesome!
I like that hard top. More info?
You guys are literally adorable
Awww thank you!
You’re not getting zapped from 12 V DC genius LMAO
Yeah most people don't really understand electricity, and so they tend to be overly cautious. That's not necessarily a bad thing though.
@@Alex-lc1bv right. People get ballsy and then get cooked. Also idk if this guy heard them say they aren’t mechanics or professionals like 4 times. Lol
the doctor
Don't tell me you cant.
A link for your wife? Now that's a link I would click hahaha love the humor. You gained a new subscriber with this one.
LMAO! Thank you for joining!
Do you have to have an amp to use a subwoofer?
Nope. It's an all in one unit
I'm actually looking for a Providence Group PCP. I got a letter from my PCP, two weeks ago, saying he's retiring. I spent a week at St. John's back in August, and it got frustrating that my Cedars PCP couldn't see my Providence Bloodwork; so, I'm looking for a Providence Internal or family doctor to be my new PCP. A bonus would be a doctor that knows about GWI; because, my numbers are all out of whack and GWI patients don't react well at all with vaccines; and, the VA denies 80% of GWI claims, including mine. I've got an awesome urologist; but, he's not familiar with GWI at all. Never heard of the damage a Soviet Bloc bullet does on the way out, after 30 years; which, is how I landed in St. John's, in the first place. BTW, nice wrench. Kinda looks like your logo.
Lots of fine doctors in this area, you should have no problem at all!
Nice wrench. You can tell alot about a person by the size of his wrench!!! Lol
Lmaoooo
👍👍👍👍
I like your dorky personalities they're entertaining but I have one serious question please tell me when you grounded the wires that you sanded off the paint first.
It supposed to be connected to bare metal 😉.
We have never had to and have never had any issues! I know it is recommended but we never do (and never have any issues) go figure lol
And the reason is because the connector is touching the bare metal of the bolt, which is touching the bare metal of the area you are bolting it in! Ahhaaa!
Woff, wolf the beat goes on. La de da de da.
Awesome guys....🤠
Haha amazing! Cheers!
Bravo bravo
Thank you for your support!
I didn’t see a link to the adjustable wrench 😮just kidding 😃
Lolll!
Hey I need help for installing a subwoofer. Can I get some help?
Sure whatsup!
You can't actually get "Zapped" from 12v DC... You can touch both positive and negative terminals with your bare hands and you won't feel anything...
Great video as always! Thank you guys for sharing!
Thanks for the info!
@@Garagecouple Be wary of bad advice from people that don't understand electricity. It's the current that zaps, not the voltage. I once wasn't paying attention and while removing a battery touched the positive terminal to ground through the wrench and the ring I was wearing. Big sparks, the ring ended up with a melted spot, and I had a nice blister around half my finger.
Great vid guys! Curious how this powered sub compares to the stock TJ sub/amp. I’m considering this sub to possibly go in the center console or under the passenger as well, if it fits of course.
Also you guys should look into the gear bags that attach between the roll bars or some molle bags for your recovery gear and tools.
Thank you for the support! The powered amp is significantly louder and stronger than the upgraded center console sub. There is no comparison. If you can fit it it would be perfect! Thanks for the suggestion
That space looks very tight. Subwoofers need to be able to move air (lots of air). That is the core of a subwoofers performance. I can't expect that to perform well that tight to the seat cushion. Just saying
It works really well! Plenty of air space around it to function properly!
where she get that shirt it’s dope
Vacuum the goddamn carpet
Far out moon dog!!@
Lol
The wrangler is a horrible vehicle for any type of sound system simply because there’s no space and there’s just pieces of exposed metal panels all over the interior. But you did good boss. I’m glad you didn’t choose a 12 inch or a 15 inch.
Thanks for your support!
10:00 Are you guys getting sponsored now by Kirkland?! Haha! That is an interesting subwoofer - I have never seen one with a bass control, but I am not a 'car audio' guy. Sounds like it really pumps though! Does it get hot under the seat though?
Thanks for the support! Would love to be sponsored by kirkland lol! It isn't going to rattle the bolts loose on the jeep, but it sounds night and day more full and lively now. I haven't noticed it getting warm, but I am sure it is at least getting just a little warm
Go to Marcus gene forson or big sexy Jeep foot pegs get yourself some custom mirrors and foot pegs I highly recommend and this is on Facebook so I highly recommend it
Nice! Thanks!
Yoooooo
Yooo
I'm glad you're not professional "jeep mechanics". You make way better videos than those that are.
Thanks 👍
Subwufer 😂
I swear did all of this and it still won't work 😭
Shouldn't run power/ground/remote wires alongside any source signal wire ie R As or speaker wire. It induces interference...feedback & engine noise. Run all wires with current together & audio signal on the opposite side. I know, I know...y'all aren't professional mobile audio installers. Nevertheless, those are lil tidbits you should know before tackling a project that you're not well versed in.
FYI... that crescent wrench still isn't the proper tool. A torque wrench is & just because You couldn't turn it doesn't mean it's torqued to spec. I don't think y'all realize what it takes to get 200 ft lbs of torque...at the end of the day it doesn't matter because anytime you install anything suspension related you should taken it in for an alignment & let the alignment shop torque it to spec.
We've been aligning our own jeeps for the better part of a decade. Never have had any issues. Also, there's a huge debate regarding running wires on the same side vs opposite side when using low level inputs. Aleens jeep, we tapped the speaker wire and ran it on the other side. This time around, the wires mostly run apart, in any case, 0 interference, 0 issues, it sounds perfect
the Infinity SM8 is way better then Rockville !!
Honestly, the rockville for the price has been fantastic
Idk what’s a bigger tool Him or the wrench
Why does she keep looking at him?
Hmmm
Why do I see a lot of debt??
None!
Damn she’s bad af
Intros waaaay too long. Thanks for the info, though.
First wire is to the signal, If you missed it, go to another video. Second wire is to the output, if you missed it, go to another video. WTF!!!
And if you can't get it done during the day, wait until the next day. I hate these into the night, bad lighting videos.
Use a lavalier mic so you don't have to fuckin shreak and scream...
Yup. Have been since thus vud
FOR THE LOVE OF PETE, INSTALL THE DANGED UNDER SEAT SUBWOOFER !!!!
WAY TOO MUCH TALKING !!!
Ouch
@@Garagecouple Sorry, but you wouldn't of lost all your daylight time, if you would of cut the talking back some.
Good install though. And just a helpful hint for future installs of electronics. Always disconnect your battery. Saves on blowing fuses, burns, etc.
Lol! Thanks for the feedback!
This particular brand is a literally trash, don't waste your money people, get a good brand's like JL,JBL,Kenwood,Infinity, last long and good warranty trust me 🤔😬😬but this brand 😡😡😡😠😂😂😂
