Hey all, seeking help putting together my system.  Have an 08 Avalanche that the system will go in.  I have two older kicker amps from a previous vehicle that I am hoping to use in the truck.  Looking for advice on a box and subs that will work under the seat?  Also looking for recommendations on an affordable component set for the front and coax for the rear using stock locations.  Any suggestions provided will be greatly appreciated.  

Thanks

As far as components and coax check out McLaren audio products. Very reasonably priced and great quality and sound for price you pay.

Budget wise trying to keep it under a grand including install. 

The amps are kicker z360 and z460.  Had the 360 running two JL 15W3 in previous vehicle.  Amps are old, but they still work so was hoping to reuse and save money.  Not looking for this system to be as loud as it was in the car, but looking for a nice balanced sound.  I know I will be limited in size for the subs since I want an under the seat box.  Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated.

I will definitely take a look at the MC Clarens for factory replacements.

 

Thanks

welcome to SMD.

take that mid gate out to build an enclosure. No room for shit under the rear seats. Well actually, nice place for an amp rack.

I think the Tahoe and crew cab under seat boxes might work in an avalanche as well... might research that some

Thought about that but was hoping to keep the truck somewhat functional.  Any worries about leaks?

Mine can easily be removed if need be. Most pre built mid gate enclosures are fairly nice and can be easily removed.

I Line-X ‘d my enclosure. No problems so far.

What factory system does your Avalanche have ?? My 07 has the Bose system.
