INSTALLATION GUIDE
for the
SB-GM-SLVCC/10W3v3
2007 - Up Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra
Crew Cab Trucks
Thank you for choosing a JL Audio Stealthbox®for your automotive sound system. With proper
installation, your new vehicle-specific enclosed subwoofer system will deliver years of listening pleasure.
We strongly recommend that you have your new Stealthbox®installed by your authorized JL Audio
dealer. The installation professionals employed by your dealer have the necessary tools and experience
to disassemble and reassemble your vehicle properly. Also, keep in mind that your warranty coverage
extends to 2 years if your system is installed or approved by your authorized JL Audio dealer. If you
prefer to perform your own installation, please read this installation guide completely
before beginning the process.
If you choose to perform the installation yourself, it is absolutely vital that
the Stealthbox®be properly mounted to the vehicle according to these
instructions. Failure to mount the enclosure properly presents two problems:
1) The sub-bass performance will suffer due to the movement of the enclosure
caused by the force exerted by the woofer(s).
2) A loose enclosure presents a serious safety hazard in the event of a collision
or sudden deceleration.

From under the vehicle, place a supplied fender washer,
flat washer, lock washer and then hex nut onto the socket
cup set screw and secure. Note: For added protection
it is recommended that you apply a bead of silicone
between the vehicle and the fender washer. After the
bolt assembly is tightly secured, it is also recommend-
ed that vehicle under-coating material is applied to
the exposed assembly

With a drill and a 1/2-inch drill bit, drill through the
impression made in the wax squares. Note: Before drilling,
make sure that you are not going to be drilling into
any gas lines, brake lines, transmission lines, electrical
wiring, transfer case (4x4 vehicles) or anything else
that might cause a reduction in your weekly pay.
Always wear eye protection when drilling!
Remove the wax squares.
Run speaker wire from the amplifier’s location to the
Stealthbox®location and check for proper operation of
the woofer.

Place the Stealthbox® into the mounting location and press
firmly onto the Stealthbox®.
