Hey guys.

Does anyone have a good pic of the entire rear cargo area and also the spot where the missing spare tire go? How deep is the spare tire well?
Thanks

Derek

The spare tire actually is typically mounted under the vehicle, not in the cargo area. Here is a shot of the cargo area:

Ge2, you are the bomb!!!! Thank you for that pic. I remember you telling me you were going to get some measurements for me. You RULE!!!


I thought there was a compartment in the rear that the spare was suppost to go in. What is under that compartment and how big and deep is it?

Thanks
Derek

That compartment isn't really deep at all. The lid is carpet on one side, and a plastic tray on the other side. Not sure how deep (if you cut through the bottom of the compartment) you could go if you removed the lid / tray thingy. I'd guess not very far, since the body of the vehicle was built to carry the spare underneath.

thanks. I guess that throws that stereo idea out of the window.

Can you tell me the distance from the floor to the bottom of where the security cover snaps in? Thanks

hound - I just took the measurments for you

32" X 20.5"

2" deep

Thanks. Not sure what if I can use that space for anything.

hound i know exactly how you feel..... first thing i thought when i saw that the SRT has run flats is "sweet that means a nice big hole under the trunk floor where i can mount amps and/or a sub"

is there space under the rear seats?

looks like a compartment to hide stuff more than anything. News Flash....GCSRT8 driver charged with possession of coke hidden in storage compartment.....:eek:
Basically useless, who honestly flips that thing over and uses it?

I cut the bottom out and mounted a 1000/1 and 450/4. replaced the cover with a piece of masonite covered in matching carpet. really need to get pics.

jeff some pics of that would be nice, b/c when i finally get a GC SRT8, those are exactly the 2 amps i'm gonna need to hide somewhere

Same here, I was playing around with ideas on putting amps down there.

I am probably going to use a Kicker SX1250.1 and SX700.4

Each measure 22.5 X 10 X 2.5

I may be wrong, but the jeep never had a "trunk" for a spare. Look under the jeep. See that big open area where the exhaust runs? that is where the spare hangs in regular jeeps. I thought about fabricatting a watertight box here to hold an amp and base.
