GREAT VIDEO! I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH WATER UNDER MY BACK SEAT. FROM OTHER VIDEOS ON UA-cam, IT LOOKS LIKE THE BACK CABIN VENTS ARE LEAKING. NOW I KNOW HOW TO REMOVE THE SEAT AND MOD THE BACK TO FOLD DOWN! THANKS FOR POSTING THIS VIDEO!
Bro your a Sav love it! Will be adding sub and shotgun mount that way I can raise em right. Ol boy can hop out with the shottie if we ever get into trouble
Fixing to do the same thing to mine, kudos on the speaker box that's exactly what I want I'd hate to lose my under seat storage since I got the Express model no doors I appreciate you doing a vid on it couldn't find anyting online 👍
Well shit yeah! Glad I could help out, Hey! ADDITIONAL TIP- if you just buy the Rockford Fosgate loaded P3s you'll be set, that's what I based my box dimensions off of!!! The fosgate r2s wasnt worth it to me, I'm going to be buying the p3 soon
@@Rep361Texas just got it done bud 👍 but yes need to remove the OEM panel it's to thick going to be installing some Dyno mat or equivalent to it thanks again
@@MoparHollics That's awesome!!!!! I'm excited it worked out well for ya'!!!! I'm probably not going to dynomat mine, idk I just don't hear much of a difference without the factory carpet... I'm still unsure though, lmk how well it works for you.
Blew me away when I saw those vents on the back fire wall for the 1st time too...I also live in TEXAS..I was like thas where all my damn A/C is goin!!!! ...talking bout a mad fat boy
Haha, its necessary on these newer vehicles, believe it or not if they didnt have those or too much of one is blocked it could cause your rear window to shatter when you close your door, the cabin pressure along with the air tight seal cases the pressure to need an escape.
How is the road noise after this mod? How well do you like this mod? Sorry, I am talking sole on the Sub mod. Would you recommend this to someone else?
Yea I've been with them for 8 years out of there CC district. The mod should work the same on a rear bench seat, as long as the rear firewall hooks are the same as in the video you'll be good, I have yet to do one myself.
appreciate this content.. anyone actually measure how much room is back there? i have a sub/amp combo box im hoping i can cram back there. box measure 13.5” tall, 7.5” base narrowing to 5” at top. wedge box that was under seat of a silverado.
To be honest the box didn’t work out as well as I had hoped, Once I got it back there I lost all functionality of the seat, I ended up removing it for good shortly after i made that video.
Did your truck come with those storage boxes under the rear seats? I'd like to get something like that for my quad cab. Great video, I was trying to figure out if there was a way to get the rear seat to fold down.
Saddly the quad cabs didn't come with the compartments, I know I looked into doing them shortly after getting mine and it doesn't look like there is a simple way of getting them, but I'll definitely see if I can find a way around that as well!!! Glad this one was helpful!!!
Quick question.. Would you rather get a first time (mild)cam from jay greene or moes performance and which one? if i go jg route Im saving about 2-300 less than the i3 and pcm bundle. Only asking because I would like to get it right the first time.
I would buy from either, their specs are really close on their mild cams so I one make more power than the other it wouldn't be much, I deal alot with Demon Motorsports so mine is more than likely to come from them. Matt has been more than helpful over the last 2 years. One thing I learned from him is the Diablos are good but if your wanting to have alot of Bolt-on's and wanting reliability the go with H.p. tuners, in the long run it was worth it on my build!!! Hope this was helpful buddy!!!
It works, same as It did from factory if tou cut it the right spot, if you cut to much it may not stay latched but if you follow the video youll be close, i actually made my description tight so you may need to shave a little more than me.
Ill admit that it didnt work out well, I ended up with the p3s in a under seat box and the amp on the back firewall. The box i made sounded good and hit well but not on lows, the sub was actually hitting the bracing in the back of the seat while doing any kind of excursion, the same sub in the under seat box stuffed well with cotton sounds just as good but not earth shattering of course... Now the p3s has more room to play without risk of damage. Hope this helps if you find a way to pack decent bang behind the seat please let me know!!!
Yeah, I haven't had an issues yet but I see subtle signs of leakage, mine stays in the garage during bad weather but I think the car wash can do the same harm, Thanks
Don't do what this guy did! Simply add 1" wood spacer underneath seat bracket and back seat will unhook and fold down easy. I installed a fox acoustic sub enclosure and wooden spacers came with it to lift the seat so that the box would fit. Same result without destroying your factory bracket. Thats why I always buy new vehicles because second hand vehicles always have previous owners that destroy them like this or worse.
Brother, If you think wood supporting the weight of your passengers during an accident is a better solution then go right ahead. In no world would I ever mix carpentry with structural in automotive. Hopefully you don't ever plan to carry passengers my guy. This is why I trust noone but myself to modify my vehicles. Some people claim they know what their doing and will put people in harm with such foolish things.
@@Rep361TexasI second that. Not only is he using something as dumb as wood but you’re losing full thread engagement of the bolts. They make em that long for a reason. I cut the hooks on my 2011 ram. Worked just fine.
Holy shit this guy modifying his truck from Lowes. He probably got longer bolts from Lowes also. Good ole cheapest bolt he could find that fits. Weak bolts and wood. That's exactly what I would depend on keeping my passengers safe. 😮
Mine folds down much easier than that. Just had to pull down on a hidden loop that was behind the seat. This video was a waste of my time. Change the title.
Start watching at 5:50 to cut to the point.
legend, i hate when people babble on and on and on...
raise em right....hilarious!! Thx for the vid!

If you have water under your seats it’s either from those vents or (like in my case) from the seal around the 3rd brake light. I’d check that first!
You can cut below the plastic tab, and leave it in place, and it'll still work.
Underneath the back passenger side seat looks like a subwoofer in my truck did some come like that 2011 ram1500
Bro your a Sav love it! Will be adding sub and shotgun mount that way I can raise em right. Ol boy can hop out with the shottie if we ever get into trouble
I used a cut off tool and the blade is about 1/8” thick and this is exactly right for my 2018 ram.
Well my new project thanks, i have a 2500 but im sure its the same i will find out soon

Excellent video!!! Thanks for the info.
The bolts are hard to get out because they put loctite on them, it's not from carpet glue.

@@bmanclassics4350 agreed! It could always be colder lol!
Subbed!! I got a 18 just picked up 3 months ago
Heck yeah welcome to the fam!
Did you seal those cab vents up? Mine are leaking badly right now. Which is why I'm watching this video
Dude, nice work!
Raise em right
😁🤙
I absolutely love those sexy tires with the red rims! I want!
😁 Thanks!!
How is the road noise after this mod? How well do you like this mod? Sorry, I am talking sole on the Sub mod. Would you recommend this to someone else?
Hey what storage compartment was that please?? Just subscribed
How much space is there for a sub box?? About how many inches would you say
Those wheels though!😮
Gotta love them or hate them lol!
You only have to cut the bottom half off just below that white square and it doesn’t have to be taped it’ll hold it’s self on still
Pretty cool..that’s a good idea .. awesome.👍👍
Thanks!!!!
Great video thanks for the info you just got a new subscriber did you see the video where the center consul could slide backwards
No I haven't, feel free to link the video. Thanks friend! Glad you liked it!!!!
@@Rep361Texas please let me know if I link the video the right way and also will this be hard to do
@@Rep361Texas I would like to have a button to press to drop down the backseat
You work for mmr? I hooked up temp power for yall in louisiana. I need to do this to mine. It's a bench seat
Yea I've been with them for 8 years out of there CC district. The mod should work the same on a rear bench seat, as long as the rear firewall hooks are the same as in the video you'll be good, I have yet to do one myself.
Thanks for the video. I need to take my seat out because the pressure vent is leaking water behind my drivers side.

Does woofer not get restricted travel from rubbing seat?
Where’d you get the box? If you built it, what are the dimensions?
Let me ask you? You have quad cab? What is the size of the subwoofer box? Can be made for 2 subwoofers? Thanks
To be honest the box didn’t work out as well as I had hoped, Once I got it back there I lost all functionality of the seat, I ended up removing it for good shortly after i made that video.

It's a crew cab thing
I just took my seats out with a Ratchet to fix the cab vents leak and it’s 105 degrees 😢
what toolbox do you have in your ram?
It’s not a 3/4 it’s a 18mm
🐳💩🙈👍
Thanks for the video
Better to just shim it up 1-1/2” with MDF
Aye brother Does “storage” are actually for subroofers
But it looks clean, you could also do a cut through
Do what you wish with the new space. I will say it is a little tight for subs.
Great video thanks! It’s bullshit you can’t fold down the seat from factory!
Thanks! ...And I Agree!!! b.s.
I can readily see I am behind, I need a electric ratchet,for removing fasteners

Talk to Justin at Dr differential speed shop in Groves Texas he has custom cams and he will hook u up with a badass cam for the $$
Is that a storage unit with power?
Pretty much.
Doing this mod, does the backseat no longer stay upright when you raise the lower section all the way up?
It works, same as It did from factory if tou cut it the right spot, if you cut to much it may not stay latched but if you follow the video youll be close, i actually made my description tight so you may need to shave a little more than me.
How is that sub working for you?? I have the box that fits under the seat,not much bass from it
Ill admit that it didnt work out well, I ended up with the p3s in a under seat box and the amp on the back firewall.

Add washers under the seat where you bolt it down I raise mine 5mm
ALSO put that white stuffing in the box
Dimensions on the box?
Hi why do you have that stuff in the bottom of your truck under yours
Get good grades kid!!!! Love ya!!!
Better seal around those vents or that amp will be trash. Mine were leaking.
Yeah, I haven't had an issues yet but I see subtle signs of leakage, mine stays in the garage during bad weather but I think the car wash can do the same harm, Thanks
will those modded seats stay in place in an accident?
👍 yeup!!
Those vents suck they leak all the time.
How much did the katskin seats cost?
Not sure, I had the dealership put throw in leather when I bought it. So they opted for the katskin
It's a 60/40 bench
that is NOT a crew cab. Yours is a quad cab.
Bass head with a tiny box and shallow mount sub..... 😂
Well my gear head side took over, lightest bang for the buck
Quad cab or crew
Quad
@@Rep361Texas did u install the storage box underneath the seats
@@2502860 No sir, Mine is a 2017 Lone Star package, it came with the storage.
Is it just me or does this look like a quad cab?
It is a quad, its still the same method for the crew cabs though!!
Exposed wood looks stupid IMO. Sure not going to waste time covering it in carpet
👍👍❗
Dude quit calling it a firewall
que pinche diseño tan mas pendejo..trus is very nice!
