2019-2024 Ram 2500 / 3500 HD 5th Gen (DJ/D2) — 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: Crew Cab

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.

Crew Cab Likely

Locationunderseat, crew cab — same Goose Gear seat-delete product line as the 2010-2018 entry (spans '2009-Present, 4th & 5th Gen' as one continuous line). Real confirmed factory subwoofer bay: the seat-delete plate's 60% side has a documented 'factory subwoofer compatible' version with dedicated slots.
Outer bounding box~38.625"W x 42"L (plate footprint), 25.125"H back wall — same as the 2010-2018 entry; cross-checks reasonably with the real commercial box specs already in this entry (2.2 ft3 dual ported, 1.2-1.4 ft3 single variants)
Known obstructionsNone specifically documented
Usable volume estimate2.2 ft³

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 Likely

Factory speaker sizecutout is 6x9", but only ~2" of real mounting depth limits practical replacement size to 6.5" unless using the Mopar-catalog Kicker 6x9" direct-fit part — same finding source covered the 2010-2024 Ram HD range as one continuity, applies to this entry too. Real, confirmed: this generation shares the same Alpine/Harman Kardon door architecture as the Ram 1500 DT (2019-2025, same entry family) — 6x9" woofer + 3.5" tweeter on the premium-audio trims.
Max mounting depth2 in
Known obstructionsShallow ~2" mounting depth is the binding constraint, not the cutout size
Adapter bracket neededReal, genuine Mopar part number confirmed for a cross-trim upgrade: 68043045AD (3.5" Harman Kardon dash speaker) — real owner caution: the 6x9" HK door speakers are 4-ohm vs. the Alpine system's 2-ohm, so swapping doors specifically will cost some volume; the 3.5" dash/tweeter units don't have this impedance mismatch issue.
TweeterDoor-mounted, high position, alongside the woofer — same design as the Ram 1500 DT, not a separate A-pillar location.
Midrangen/a in the doors — dash-corner midrange likely present on premium trims matching the 1500 DT's pattern, not independently re-confirmed for this HD-specific entry

Rear doors Likely

Factory speaker size6x9" cutout
Known obstructionsDepth constraint not confirmed for rear doors specifically
Adapter bracket neededunconfirmed
Tweetern/a — matches the Ram 1500 DT's confirmed woofer-only rear doors

Factory audio integration

Factory amp / premium audioReal, another brand transition confirmed at this entry's 2019 start — matches our other Ram/Dodge entries' pattern of the brand changing roughly every generation (Infinity to Alpine to Harman Kardon). Harman Kardon premium system: 750W, 17 speakers, confirmed on Longhorn and Limited high trims starting with this generation's 2019 launch. Both Alpine and Harman Kardon show up in period sourcing — HK is the confirmed factory system for this generation, Alpine references are aftermarket-upgrade or prior-generation carryover discussion, not a second factory option on this truck.
Adding subs without a head-unit swapConfirmed straightforward — multiple commercial loaded enclosures exist for direct fit
Head unitNo replacement needed

Mounting locations

Crew Cab Solid

Excellent specific data across three real product variants: dual ported box (2.2 ft3, tuned 35Hz); '60 Tall' box (1.4 ft3, requires a 1.5" seat lift with kit included, seat retains full function and still locks); '60 Low' box (1.2 ft3, no seat lift needed). Separately, single-12" spec: ~7" mounting depth, 11.15" sub hole, 1.55 ft3 per sub. This gives a genuine height-vs-volume tradeoff choice worth surfacing directly in any build tool — not every vehicle has this explicit a low/tall option pair documented.

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.
