What factory stereo is this?

I have a 2002 Suburban and it has the sub in the back and the amp behind the glove box. Is this the Bose system or something else? There is no mention of Bose anywhere on the stereo or door grills. I can't imagine them not plastering their name all over it unless the previous owner removed them.

 

I've ordered the parts to bypass the amp for the door speakers and hope to order a Memphis 8" sub soon. I just need a little more boom!

 

Thanks!

If it doesn't say 'BOSE', then it ain't. ;)

 

Do post your results. I too have a 2002 and like you, would like just a little more boom.

And welcome to

Yeah, but the only way I can get crutchfield's web site to say anything about a sub is to select with Bose. Confused...

 

Oh well it may not matter one way or the other anyway. I pulled the factory sub tonight and the d**n enclosure is only 3" deep! The only thing I can find shallow enough is a Pioneer and it is 4 ohms. Grrrrr. The factory sub does have a spacer on the front of it though of about 5/8" so if you reused it behind the sub you could go to 3 5/8" mounting depth. Guess I'll keep searching...

 

Anyone got a Memphis MC84D laying around that they can take an exact measurement of? Everything I'm finding says 4", but maybe they are rounding.

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By dieselfan1 · Posted

      2026 3500HD.  Mostly empty. Grocery getter. What tire pressure are you running for 37x12.50x20. I have 37x12.50R20 Toyo Open  Country RT pro and been running around 55 lbs front and rear and it's too much. Tires are wearing more in the middle. Toyo says 45 front and 50 rear. Chalk test and it's still too much. I lowered it to 40 front 44 rear see what happens.

      With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By davester · Posted

      are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
