Our Product Research Team
At Crutchfield, you'll get detailed, accurate information that's hard to find elsewhere.
That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team — they open the box,
verify contents, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs.
We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices.

Installation
Note:
The provided dimensions are taken at the widest points of the enclosure. Keep in
mind that these enclosures are custom made to fit in a particular vehicle, so
the enclosure will fit properly in only one specific location.
Mounting
Location: This enclosure
mounts behind the driver's seat on the transmission hump in 1993-2002 Ford
Ranger regular cab trucks. The woofer is front-firing.
Connections:
There are two ways to connect this powered subwoofer to your vehicle. Using the
supplied hardwire harness, you can hardwire the subwoofer to your vehicle's
factory wiring, or, you can use an optional T-harness if one is available for
your vehicle.
Compatibility with T-Harnesses: Clarion
manufactures T-Harnesses that plug into the factory radio harness of select
vehicles. This allows you to maintain the integrity of the vehicle wiring. Note:
For each specific vehicle, please verify T-harness compatibility with the Crutchfield Vehicle Selector or speak with a Crutchfield Product Advisor.
Features
Class D
Amplifier: The
enclosure contains a built-in 40 watts RMS, 100 watts peak, Class D (digital) amplifier that allows
RCA or speaker-level input. The amplifier is
highly efficient and designed specifically for use with the subwoofer in the
enclosure.
Woofer:
The enclosure comes with an installed 2-ohm,
8" woofer:
- Design: The
woofer is custom-designed to compliment the efficiency of the Class D
amplifier to deliver deep, low bass.
- Materials:
The polypropylene woofer cone gives you superior
strength and lower distortion.
- Surround:
For a smoother response and improved durability, the woofer uses a rubber
surround.
Enclosure:
- Design: The acoustic
suspension design gives you tighter, more accurate bass.
- Materials: The
rigid poly enclosure resists flexing and dampens resonance.
Crossover: This unit includes a
75Hz, 18dB per octave low pass crossover, so the woofer will receive only the
frequencies it was made to reproduce.
