Room for amps

Hello, I just joined the forum today..

Is it possible to remove the folding metal racks from under one side of the split rear seat of an 04' F250 CC?

I am looking for room to place amps for a stereo upgrade.

I believe this came up a while back and I believe the answer was no, put them behind the seat.

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately my sub enclosure and sub amp occupy the majority of the space behind my rear seat, and I am now looking to add a second amp to drive my main speakers that are currently driven only by my Alpine head unit. No more room behind the back seat. Also no room under the powered front bucket seats either. I hope someone can help.

If you can get a picture of the rear seat, that would help a great bit. What size amp are we talking here?

you can try and do what I did with my subs. Although the specs are not the same, you can mount the amp between the 2 sub boxes.

Do you have any voids under the Center Console (if you have one)? I'm sure you will be installing/lookin for a 4-channel amp.

Back at home we have a local amp manufacturer that has a nice 4-channel I think one is a 45x4 and another one is 75x4.

They both seem to be a lit'l bigger than 8 1/2" X 11" and 1.5"-1.75" tall...
And carry a LifeTime warranty against defects. I think the brand was "Apple"...

I can make a e-mail/call to my supplier at home if you'd....?

Thanks for the help everyone. I just removed the tray from under the backseat. Seven bolts and it lifted out, did not even have to remove the seat to accomplish the task. Tons of room under the seat for whatever I put under there. I may even look into a downfire sub box for under the seat.
