2007-2017 Lincoln Navigator (and Navigator L) 3rd Gen — 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, L (extended length)

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 (identical to Ford Expedition per confirmed platform-sharing)
Outer bounding box51"W x 15"H x 24"/30"D below side ledges — same as the Expedition 2007-2017 entry
Known obstructionsNone specifically documented beyond what's noted in the Expedition entry
Usable volume estimate8 ft³

Starting points

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

Subwoofers1x10" sealed (direct-fit Stealthbox, same as Expedition)
Box typesealed
Locationfactory subwoofer location, zero cargo loss

Enthusiast

Subwooferssame custom large-build options as the Expedition entry — behind 3rd row, up to 15" subs

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 size6x8" or 5.25" woofers — same platform family as the confirmed-shared Ford Expedition of this era. **CORRECTION, 2026-07-22**: the '1.570" tweeter' figure previously listed here was cross-checked directly and traced to the Ford Expedition's OWN door-panel tweeter spec (from the shared Crutchfield retailer guide covering both vehicles) — NOT independently confirmed as the Navigator's own tweeter. Direct research for the Navigator specifically found a DIFFERENT, real, named tweeter: a THX-branded 2.194" unit, mounted in the REAR PILLAR (not the door, not the A-pillar) — attached to its grille with heat-fused clips and secured to the pillar trim with 4 Torx T10 screws. Since this is a genuinely different location AND size than the Expedition's door tweeter, do not assume the two vehicles share identical tweeter specs despite the confirmed shared cargo/subwoofer platform.
Known obstructionsNone — Crutchfield describes this as one of the easier vehicles to upgrade
Adapter bracket neededunconfirmed
TweeterRear pillar (Torx T10 mounted, heat-fused clip grille) — a genuinely different location than the door-mounted pattern seen on the shared-platform Expedition
Midrangen/a — no separate midrange confirmed; this appears to be a 2-way woofer+tweeter system with the tweeter relocated to the rear pillar rather than door-integrated

Rear doors Solid

Factory speaker size6x8" or 5.25" (same platform family)
Known obstructionsNone specifically documented
Adapter bracket neededunconfirmed
Tweetern/a — the real THX tweeter is rear-pillar mounted, not in the rear doors themselves

Factory audio integration

Factory amp / premium audio2001-era Navigator confirmed to have an 8" dual-voice-coil factory subwoofer; specs for 2007-2017 trims not independently confirmed
Adding subs without a head-unit swapStraightforward — same factory-location bolt-in pattern as the Expedition
Head unitNo replacement needed

Known integration products

Mounting locations

Standard Likely

CONFIRMS PLATFORM-SHARING with Ford Expedition for this era: identical cargo dimensions found — 51"W x 15"H x 24"/30"D below side ledges, matching the Expedition 2007-2017 entry exactly. JL Audio sells the SAME Stealthbox part number for both Navigator L and Expedition EL. This is the second confirmed cross-brand platform-sharing case in the database (after GM's Tahoe/Yukon/Escalade/Suburban family).

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.
