Audio and ABS questions.
My first question is about installing speakers into my 99 Durango.
Is their a certain depth i need to be aware of before purchasing speakers?
And my second question is about my abs system.
About 3 weeks ago after having a problem with my differential, my ABS and parking brake light under the speedometer came on. So now ive got no ABS on my Durango . My mechanic told me that it must have gone out with the differential but after replacing the differential, the problem still remains. He then tried replacing the cars computer but that did nothing. He has run out of ideas on what the problem might be. And help?
Thanks

theck the rear wheel speed sensor, its on TOP of the rear differential, if thats not new it is a likely culprit, and you could also check the trans speed sensor should be on the output shaft of the transmission, drivers-side
and the speakers that are in the truck now are 2 3/8" deep, if you save the plastic ring that they came out of you should have no problems fitting any normal speaker back in

Remember that you will need to replace the speaker with a 2ohm speaker and not a 4ohm.
Also for you question on ABS. Yes it is located on the top of the rear differential and here is a DIY:

I've been digging around for 2ohm speakers but am only seeing 4ohm. Any brands and series i should be looking into? Any advice?
Also does it NEED to be 2ohm, or can it be 4ohm? whats the difference. Sorry I'm a bit of a noob at car audio.

it will not sound right, unless you upgrade the headunit to one which will accept the 4 ohm speakers.
but as long as you have the stock headunit stick with the 2 ohm speakers, they will sounds better and last longer and im not sure if using the 4 ohms will damage the stock headunit, i know if you use 2 ohm speaker with a 4 ohm headunit you will damage the headunit

Using 4 ohm speakers will not hurt the infinity system with 2 ohm amp. It just won't sound as loud. I am using Infinity reference 6012's and they are 4 ohm's and they work great!
The current Infinity reference product out in market today is the 6032's. They are 2 ohm's.
I heard that the reference/kappas will come with the adaptors you will need in order for the speaker to fit the OEM plastic spacer.
