2011-2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee WK2 — subwoofer box fitment

What we researched for this specific generation: where an enclosure actually fits, what the factory speakers are, how the factory audio is wired, and which real builds and commercial products exist for it. Confidence badges say how well each figure is sourced — this is research, not manufacturer spec.

Body styles covered: 4-Door SUV

Where a box actually fits

These are researched envelopes, not a guarantee. Measure your own vehicle — the numbers here tell you what to expect, not what you have.

Standard Likely

Locationcargo area (retailer-measured, promoted from existing notes)
Outer bounding box41"W x 15"H x 37"/35"D
Known obstructionsUnder-floor storage and cargo tie-downs exist and should be preserved — the JL Stealthbox is explicitly designed to not interfere with them, a real constraint for any custom build in the same area
Usable volume estimate6 ft³

Starting points

Suggested configurations for this vehicle, not prescriptions. Run the numbers in the Box Builder before you buy anything.

Door speaker fitment

Sizes and depths below are what research turned up for this generation. Confirm against your own vehicle before cutting or ordering — trim levels vary.

Front doors Solid

Factory speaker size6x9" with 1" tweeters. Real, confirmed 2-tier premium system: Alpine (9-speaker) and Harman Kardon (higher tier, real named full component set: tweeters, center channel, D-pillar speakers, woofers, subwoofer, amplifier).
Known obstructionsNone specifically documented
Adapter bracket neededReal, important integration caution on the tweeter location specifically: no mounting bracket exists (owners use hot glue, silicone, or universal backstraps) and no wiring harness adapter exists (requires splice/solder or speaker connectors) — the same 'no adapter for the tweeter spot' pattern already found on our Cadillac Escalade and Dodge Durango entries.
TweeterFront doors, alongside the 6x9" woofer
Midrangen/a — 2-way woofer+tweeter door layout on Alpine; Harman Kardon adds a separate D-pillar speaker location instead of an in-door midrange

Rear doors Solid

Factory speaker size6.5" (general); real, precise Harman Kardon-specific spec found: 6-3/4" woofer + 1.483" tweeter.
Known obstructionsNone specifically documented
Adapter bracket neededunconfirmed
TweeterRear doors, Harman Kardon trims

Factory audio integration

Factory amp / premium audioReal, exceptionally detailed year-by-trim breakdown — one of the most precise findings. Alpine was the early premium system (2011 and prior years of this generation). Harman Kardon then phased in trim by trim, not all at once: SRT got it 2012-2020 (optional), Summit got it 2014-2020 (STANDARD, not just optional), Overland got it starting March 2015 through 2020 (optional — note the mid-model-year start, a real production-date boundary, not a clean model-year line), and Trackhawk got it 2018-2020 (optional). Base/Laredo/Limited status not confirmed. This is real enough precision to design a build recommendation around specific build dates, not just trim names.
Adding subs without a head-unit swapStraightforward — the JL Stealthbox's direct-fit factory-location design confirms a standardized, bolt-in-friendly anchor point exists
Head unitNo replacement needed

Known integration products

Mounting locations

Standard Likely

Real measured cargo area: 41"W x 15"H x 37"/35"D (retailer-quality data, comparable to the Crutchfield-sourced Tahoe numbers). JL Audio sells a direct-fit Stealthbox: sealed 10", installs passenger side rear corner, explicitly does not interfere with under-floor storage or cargo tie-downs. Custom fiberglass option for 2014-2023 WK2 runs ~1.3 ft3.

Before you cut anything

Measure your own vehicle. Trim levels, factory subwoofer options, and mid-generation changes all move these numbers, and a box cut to a researched figure that does not match your truck is wasted wood. Where a badge reads Unconfirmed, treat the value as a starting point for your own measurement, not as an answer.
