Default Bass blockers?

Ok so I'm on my the final stretch of my perfect setup. The last thing I need to do is get rid of the NASTY distortion coming from my component tweeters. I have Polk DB6501 components. Going through the actual crossover it seems to have made the tweeters higher and louder but they still receive a lot of unwanted bass.

I have a bazooka tube in the back that gives me my bass but I have to crank up the bass on the headunit so it'll give the sub and my 6.5" speakers some more bass. If I were to completely eliminate my tweeters then I would have the perfect amount of bass at the current settings I have my system at but the tweeters just keep receiving bass and I can't figure out how to nearly completely eliminate all bass going to them.

I even went to Radio Shack to buy and install a 4.7uF capacitor on each tweeter on TOP of the crossover for each tweeter. I'm still getting a lot of unwanted bass. Any suggestions?
