My JL 500/1 puts out slot of power and no over heating problems yet. And I've gone on 1 to 2 hr trips with constant playing.

You know how there is that vent on the back wall what did y'all do to cover up that hole when you take the vent out to put the amp in?

thanks

Wish you could do this for the 4th gens.

it does not.......

the hooks are welded in.

Thanks for saving me the trouble of trying this.

 

[olbaid_83]

having an issue doing this....it seems that all 4 of the larger bolts holding the seats in are cross threaded the whole way in..... been at it for an hour and only have 1 out....any ideas to speed this up a bit?

Did anyone do this mod on a 2nd gen?

Wish i found this before mounting my amps under the seats!

Did we ever find out if this works on the 2nd Gen?

Only thing im afraid of is amp overheating..

 

[RubberFrog]

I've been rocking the **** out of that amp for two years now. No over heating.

Before the ram, I had a silverado, the chevys have welded hooks too, the mod I did on that truck required that 1/2" be cut off of the hooks coming off the back of the seat, this allows the seat to lift free in the same way. There is a risk of taking too much off of the hooks, but if you are careful and the setup is the same, Its probably doable

I just did this mod and its Sooo easy...
Planning on making so I can drop the rear seat down and my shotgun will be right there. A place to have it close but out of sight

Does this mod work on 2013 Crewcab?

Subscribed. I'm going to figure out a way to make this work in my 4th gen, whether it means cutting the welded hooks off and re-welding them on upside down, or bending them, or notching them, etc.

Planning on it.

Took a look at it tonight without removing the rear seat, and believe I have it all figured out. Be later this week before I can take it apart and confirm my theory. Stay tuned.
