2017 ford f150 non amplified 7 speaker system. Do the front door speakers and rear door speakers carry the full range of audio in the signal ?

Yes and no. The rears are full range, the fronts have a crossover that sends the highs to the tweeters in your pillars. But if you tap before the crossover, you'll get full range there as well.

So If I understand you correctly, If I were to tap the speaker wires in the dash I would be safely getting full range. However, The pillar tweeters are tapped off of the front doors then crossed over somewhere ? Lastly, For the benefit of others, Do you know where that takes place ? Thanks again for taking the time to respond Mike.

Yes, if you tap them coming out of the head unit you'll have full range. I believe the existing crossovers are mounted on or near the speakers in the doors.

They have a Cap wired in line to keep the bass out of the tweeters

The cap is actually mounted to the tweeter. I found this out last weekend when I changed my out.

So that's where they are, makes sense since it's just a capacitor instead of a 'real' crossover.

It is a real 6db crossover. Lol
