JBL subwoofer "stock" box

My 4Runner didn't come with the JBL package but I've been wanting to add a subwoofer to it and I really like how the "stock" JBL configuration looks in the rear trunk. I've looked on eBay for the part and they are about $280-300! I'm assuming that price includes box frame, sub and amp. I just want the box frame. Or would it be better and cheaper to have a custom box made for the rear trunk where the "stock" JBL sub box would go. And either way I would still have to make a hole for the screen for the sub.
Any suggestions or comments?

Anybody know if someone is selling a stock sub-woofer for a 2004 4Runner Limited?
My wife's sub has blown out and the amp and box are fine; I just need the stock sub. I called Toyota and they sell the entire assembly (box, amp and sub) for around $500... I really don't want to spend that much when all I need is the speaker itself.

I'm fairly new to this forum and cannot create any posts right now, otherwise I would create a post. If anybody can help me out it would be much appreciated.

Why not just replace the sub I'm sure a aftermarket sub is better than the one that jbl had in there. I'm not sure what size it is I think an 8" but a lot of companies should make that size. Kicker, alpine and others. @Shaniac1972

I would but after making several phone calls to Toyota and after market companies; the aftermarket sub woofers require more power than the current amp allows which could cause damage to the system. I even contacted JBL audio (which is OEM for the 4Runner) and they told me the same thing; that the newer replacements require more power and I would have to spend more money and replace the amp as well. The other alternative is purchase the entire box (amp and sub) from Toyota and dish out $500 or purchase a new aftermarket or used box with the amp and sub and dish out $215.
So I'm trying to find someone that has an OEM JBL sub laying around as I am only trying to get my wife's system up and running for another 3 years before we upgrade her 4Runner.

Total bull what they're telling you. Doesn't matter if the sub can handle 1000 watts and your only feeding it 100. It doesn't draw power, it reproduces what it gets. As long as the impedance is the same, you have nothing to worry about.

Having said that, you have a few options. I replaced mine with a Kenwood KFC-XW800F shallow mount 8" sub.

Straight drop in with no modifications of any kind needed to the cabinet. Many of the other brands are physically deeper requiring modifications to the factory cabinet

I have the original and in very good condition but it would be cost prohibitive to sell & ship to you from Canada.

Is that a dual ohm sub?

Yes and no. If you put a rated 1000W speaker on a 300W amp the voice coil on the speaker won't move enough to cool itself, that will cause overheating and delamination of the voice coil. Pretty close to putting too much power into a under rated speaker. End result either speaker will cease to work after (a short or long) while .

Whatever the rating for the JBL amp is, should be your guide for the replacement woofer. IE: if the amp is rated 300W (I'm assuming RMS) then you'd want a 300 to 500 (rms)watt woofer. There are plenty of quality replacements to choose from. There's also quite a few great companies to get them from.

Too much power, not enough power, excessive cone excursion, over heating can all contribute to blown subs.

29 years in a service center for a major car audio manufacture including sub woofer re-coning tells me different.

Sorry to bump an old thread folks. My 09 SR5 also came without premium sound, and I’m looking to add a sub. Really like the location of the factory JBL sub, and have tracked a used one down (sub + enclosure). My questions:

- Did my non premium sound 4Runner come prewired for the sub?

- Would I need to upgrade my basic / stock head unit to something after market, or does it come with a sub-out?

Thanks,
Sina

No, it did not come pre-wired for an amp and/or sub.
Yes, you would need a head unit that has amp pre-outs (at least 1).

With that being said, the head unit will make a big difference in your sound now, even with stock speakers, so that would be the first thing to do anyway.

I have an 08 SR5 with the JBL package and I blew the rear speaker. Haven't dug into it to much besides looking up the removal on youtube. Did JBL make a replacement for the OEM speaker? Or should I sticker with the other aftermarket 8" Shallow speakers? Does the JBL package come with an AMP wires in? If so, what range should I be looking for with a replacement?

Thanks for any help

So I believe the factory amp is a total of 110 watts to the sub (peak I believe, not RMS), but it is using a dual voice coil (DVC) sub, so about 55 watts per voice coil and each is at 2 ohms impedance. Find yourself a good aftermarket shallow-depth sub that will match up and you should actually get much better bass out of it than the factory JBL. I'm pretty sure JLAudio makes one, and they are always quality stuff. Hope this helps!
