[85 oil burner]

hey yall how are ya got a question,I am the happy owner of a 3/4 ton 85' burb with a 6.2 diesel,anyway my ? is this the burb came with a radio delete from the factory,and I am havin a rough time finding the speaker cutouts seein as how there is speakerp basket in the rear or front,I just found where the dash front cutouts werefor the single 4x10 and 3/12 speakers are but cant find anything for the rear and the bak panel do the cutouts for the rear exist or is it only the back panel any help would be greatly appreciated espsecially since it has been a long 30,000 miles and 2 years of drivin this thing with no tunes !!!! p.s disregard the part where I said there were speaker baskets,there are none.

Might have to go custom and cut your own in the doors

I don't have a burb so I can't tell you where the rear speakers would be, but we have several burb owners on here so I'll give your thread a bump and maybe one of them will have an answer for you.

I'll post a pic of the rear location here in a few minutes. Not sure if you can get a decent speaker for the factory cutout because it's an odd size. Crutchfield has some options but I'm wondering if a 4"x 10" can produce good sound.

From the seat release, measure back 6 3/8" for center.

From the edge of the trim, measure down 3 3/4" for center.

Speakers are symmetric so the location is the same on both sides.

Edit: one more option for 4x10's is the Memhis PR4102V2 which looks like a good speaker. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAP...35&catId=293&item=190839789635#ht_3219wt_1006

SQ guys will laugh at 4x10's, and besides which there is hardly a market for them. But if you are just lookin for tunes there are some options. Pyle makes 4x10s and 3.5s at a good price.

I had a Cutlass one time with some 4x10s in it. They would knock pretty good! I'd rate them about 85%-90% as good as 6x9s.

If you are interest in the factory rear speaker housings I have a pair.

If you have a fresh slate (no cutouts, which it sounds like you do) I would look into some 6.5" round speakers. You will have a lot more options and a lot better sound. As guitarfreak said SQ guys will laugh at the 4x10s as well as any other oval shaped speaker because they will distort so much easier. Just my .02

 

[85 oil burner]

thanx again for the info. guys. and that brings me to my next ? I see that there is a cutout for a 4x10 in the center of the dash my ? is how the heck do ya wire the darn thing into a 4 channel radio and still run the remaining 4 speakers i.ee the 3.5's on ecah side of it and the 4x10's in the rear without havin to buy a amp? I am a guy on a budget tighter than a "DD" supermodels bra.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely, "goin nuts without speakers and tunes".

you wont use the center 4x10.
What alot of guys use that slot for, is the external speaker for a cb radio.
