I'm sure the list of pros and cons is equally long for most any option. We did 8k miles last year with the Ready Brute and no issues. Of course, the towed was only 2.5k pounds.Thanks for the response. Makes sense. I made a 4000+ mile trip and only killed the Jeep's batteries once. oops
After that goof, I made sure to start the Jeep at the end of every day. I've toyed with the idea of a charge wire, but so far so good.
Can you hear me now?may be a dumb question but what are the chances of your phone falling out of the open window if you are driving over rough terrain
My wife noticed the difference with just the door seal on.interested in that door weather seal... never thought of that and thats a quick $12 = 5db decrease
any reason you did it on the frame and not on the door itself?My wife noticed the difference with just the door seal on.
You do need to slam the door a little more as there is now more of a seal on the door.
Not really, I followed what another forum user did.any reason you did it on the frame and not on the door itself?
Did some heavy soundproofing of the Jeep during the quarantine.
After a long trip to get my daughter from college after everything shut down the noise finally got to me and made it hard to have a conversation on the freeway.
With spare time on my hand, I wanted to try a couple of things that I have seen on this forum.
I ran a test with a free decibel reader app at 55mph.
Before = ~75dB
After weather seal around doors = ~70dB
After Sound assassin floors = ~65dB
The before includes HotHead headliners with sound assassin strips.
Weather seal = https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0771T61VH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Sound assassin Floor panels = https://hotheadheadliners.com/pages/sound-assassin
I did the full floor package and ended up with 6 extra panels left over.
Took me about two days in the garage to take everything out, install, and put everything back in. I tried to be as OCD with the sound assassin as I could be. I continued to put additional small pieces down after the pictures I took. If I could see a red floor I took the time to cover it.

How did you get the weatherstrip to stick at the top of the door I could not get mine to stick up thereMy wife noticed the difference with just the door seal on.
You do need to slam the door a little more as there is now more of a seal on the door.
Hmmm, interesting. I just cleaned it really well and didn't have any issues. It did come with some extra tape but I didn't need it.How did you get the weatherstrip to stick at the top of the door I could not get mine to stick up there
