    https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/upgrading-alpine-woofer.13035/#post-190802 Here ya go. works, but needs more power. my next step is adding an amp to this setup and it should be good. Been looking at underseat boxes and just cant justify losing that space, and having to cut up factory...

    Clear Coat Bubbling

    wow. Honestly, my 19' Rebel has one of the nicest paint jobs Ive seen on new trucks. I'm a body guy at a GMC dealership, and see so much junk come in here, brand new stuff. I really hope the guy doing the cutting and buffing knows what hes doing, way to easy to burn through on that edge. some...

    Upgrading Alpine "woofer"

    Totally agree about the floor mat, that is an issue. There is space to put a box behind the seat, once we get settled into our new house this will be a good winter project to get some measurements and see whats possible!

    Upgrading Alpine "woofer"

    theres room. don't think its worth the effort messing with it, when places like Fox Acoustics make several options for under the seat boxes. The alpine is a strange system, Ive spent more time driving and listening the the differences with the new sub. some stuff sounds really good, nice and...

    New 2019 Rebel wanders on road

    why is there less air required in the rear? I have mine set at 58 al four corner and drives perfect, and I tow a 7000lb trailer. any other truck Ive seen always runs more in the rear, not less? reasoning??

    What's your Mileage and what issues did you have?

    No AC hack done, not willing to cob something while still under warranty. hoping RAM comes out with an easy fix, but doubt it

    What's your Mileage and what issues did you have?

    10000 miles currently, @ 9800 the water pump started making a high pitch squeal, replaced under warranty. other than that, just software updates. love this truck. air ride has been priceless for towing, and the wow factor for those that have never seen a truck go up and down is priceless every time.

    Upgrading Alpine "woofer"

    little update here...I have noticed more of a low rumbling while cruising, pretty sure its the ANC and with the different sub, its a lot lower frequency now. I'll be disconnecting the mic wires and see how thst affects the system. Still planning on adding an amp and subs regardless

    Upgrading Alpine "woofer"

    The rear seat is pretty easy to remove as is the sub box. This is my second time removing both, did the kilmat deadening and polyfil first time.

    Upgrading Alpine "woofer"

    Drove the truck for the first time today after doing the install. Not worth it. Less bass for sure. Maybe if I had a different amp hooked to the sub would be better, but the box is just too small for any serious sound. I need some low lows, and some punch... I'm going to be getting a box for 2...

    Upgrading Alpine "woofer"

    Don't know exactly. The spacers I bought are 3/4" thick, and the adapter I made is just shy of 3/4" Two very different subs if you compare the two side by side. Stock sub weighs almost nothing compared to the pioneer. Amazing stock sounded as good as it did. Pioneer is just underpowered now in...

    Upgrading Alpine "woofer"

    Here it is, it can be done. Replaced factory sub with this Pioneer shallow mount, used a spacer from Amazon I previously posted, and had to make another adapter to mount the spacer to, as the opening was too big. I don't think a 10" sub would fit though. Sounds good, isn't any "louder" than...

    Trailer sway with air ride

    I tow a 7500lb 27' fiberglass camper with my 19' Rebel with Air suspension, no sway hitch, or weight distributing hitch... Tows awesome. No squat, no sway, No complaints. My experience with the air system.

    Upgrading Alpine "woofer"

    Well after driving to work today listening to "how low can you go" with volume at 23 with bass set at +4 and the sub started popping again, I figured it's now or never, here's what I ordered. 2 ohm DVC sub, and some spacers. We'll see how this works, if nothing else I'll modify/rebuild the...

    Upgrading Alpine "woofer"

    Tired of the factory Alpine woofer just not hacking it for my bass needs.. I don't want to butcher this stereo system or loose any factory features. I'm gonna try to get some 8" sub spacers from eBay, and the shallowest sub I can find, which is only 2 voice coils so I will an extra channel from...

    E-Torque Bearing noise, **VIDEO** Ideas?

    Well, it's not the E torque unit, it's the water pump making all that noise. After I researched it looks like a common issue, just hope it's a freak think for only 9300 miles. All under warranty so whatever. Also had then do an AC performance testz and said 50 some degrees and it passes. Told...

    E-Torque Bearing noise, **VIDEO** Ideas?

    Yup, dropped off tonight. Will update this thread when I get the word. Have a bunch of other things for them to do on it also. Got a nice 19' Classic for a loaner from Enterprise through the dealer.

    E-Torque Bearing noise, **VIDEO** Ideas?

    Truck has 9,800 miles, this just started the other day. Only does it at idle when hot. Cold start up is normal. Definitely bringing to dealer, just looking for ideas. Used a stethoscope and can't pinpoint noise. Pulling camper on 1.5 hour drive tomorrow
