Default JL subs into zen closure

I have a JL stealth box, and the thing is heavy, and takes up too much space.

Is it possible to take the subs out and put them in a zenclosure box that sits flush under the strut bar?

Is this something I can do with little knowledge or would I have to take it back to the shop?

Thanks in advance. Sorry if this was a dumb question. I am just not too familiar with audio stuff.

I dont' know about the weight, would be interesting too know, but from a size perspecitive, i don't think the zenclosure actually is smaller than the JL stealth. I would personally want to stick with the JL just cause you know the woofers are matched correctly with the size of the sub box. Good luck whichever way you go.
