The audio build on my Wrangler has consumed me. I went and removed the seats and carpet to install Boom Mat 4mm acoustic and thermal mats.
From what I can tell itās solid stuff that should work well. It probably added 20 pounds to the Jeep. Iām hopeful it will cool down where my feet are...
Currently in the process of replacing my factory Alpine sub with a JL Audio 10TW3 shallow sub and see the rear mounting bolt is threaded right into the magnet of the Alpine sub. See belowā¦
For those of you who replaced their subā¦did you drill and tap a hole in the magnet of your new sub...
Iām completely stumped on this and it makes no sense to me, so 100 bonus points to whoever can solve this audio problem! ?
I have a 2021 JLUR with the Alpine system and the Sky One Touch. Annoyingly, once the top fully opens it decreases the bass. I can close the top 1ā and the bass returns...
Starting to bring my Jeep out of hibernation recently and today I showed my son the benefit of having lockers by driving further up the snowbank with them onā¦
My son wanted to do the same with his snowmobileā¦
I poked a bamboo stick in the snow and we still have snow about 6ā past my knee...
I just realized my winch power cable is unprotected if it shorts. My Smittybilt X20 pulls 400 amps and I rarely use my winch (so far only to operate it for winch maintenance) so Iād much prefer a disconnect switch rather than a fuse. Iām considering Flaming River 500 amp switch.
What all are...
As a thanks to all the help I receive from you people I figured Iād offer some stuff Iām not using for free here.
1. Front driver side and passenger side precut window tint. I believe itās 30% but I could be wrong as itās been sitting in the shipping container in my garage for at least a year...
Hey folks!
Iām in need of a good battery d-block system. The nut holding the three wires has only a couple threads engaged on the boltā¦
Iāve seen these (but not sold on them yet, unless someone says theyāre great) and Iām not quite sure how they would fitā¦
How do you all connect multiple...
I caved in and went ahead with ordering the Heigh10 head unit with the Blind Spot cameras (one of my eyes is a prosthetic, so really looking forward to this mod).
Apparently, I can add two more cameras (in addition to the factory front and rear cameras). Just curious where people are...
Went out to see the recent snow storm today and had a 52ā snow drift. Unfortunately, my snowblower is being repaired (usually would do it myself, but the Jeep takes precedence ?). I shoveled the area where my son is standing?, but left the highest spot to measure.
Guys, I just made my first wire harness after cutting and splicing my Noco battery maintainer to length. I found my new hobby. It has the same appeal to me as building Legos. ?
I love the look of the wrapped wire loom (I use Tesa Tape) and knowing the wires are well protected.
Any advice in...
Alrighty folksā¦will someone please check my fusing with my proposed amplifier fuse setup as Iām totally frying my brain with this.
Hereās my setup:
I will have three amp: 300 W, 1000 W, and 200 W. The recommended fuses for each are 30A, 100A, and 20A, respectively.
I am also installing a...
Iām considering the Genesis Dual Battery setup, but see that kit removes the OEM auxiliary battery for ESS. The way I think of the Genesis system is that itās basically just like the factory dual battery setup. Why would I spend the money on the Genesis system when itāll end up being like what...
Iām looking to tap into the the left (or right as it doesnāt matter) full range speaker in the soundbar on a 21 JLUR with the Alpine system and 8.4ā receiver. Anyone know which are the correct wires?
Here is the wiring schematics
Hereās what Iām seeing (I thought it was the bundle of...
Just an FYI for anyone thinking of installing the JL Audio Stealth Box in a 4 door with the rear seat recline kit:
The two donāt work together. Iāll be removing my recline kit so the seat can latch again.
Other than that, the Stealthbox fits and looks great. Canāt wait to hook it up!
Whatās up good folks!?
Iāll be installing the driver side JLAudio Stealthbox (in a 4 door) and will be driving it with an amp that is 7ā x 7ā x 2ā high along with a capacitor. I also will need to mount a Line Output Converter that is 7āx3āx1āhigh.
Looking for suggestions as to where to mount...
First Iāve heard of this portal axle stuff (saw it in January ā23 Four Wheeler Magazine), but apparently theyāve been around for decades.
Sounds like a winner to lift (3.9ā), re-gear(4.10 OEM gears will be like having 5.00 gears and 3.73 OEM gears will be like 4.55) and upsize your brake...
Figured this might be helpful to someone working with the SRS or doing other electrical work with Jeeps that have ESS.
To completely power down the 12V dual battery system you need to remove and isolate the auxiliary battery negative cable from the main battery negative cable.
You can do this...
Iāve never had an electronic owners manual before and thought Iād share a few great features of it here.
I downloaded it to my phone for my 2021 hereā¦

What I find great about it (or maybe itās my phone Iām uncertain) is...
Hey!
So Iām absolutely done with this auto-lock feature that automatically jams it into park if you donāt have your sealt belt on and the door open.
Iāve noticed I can remove the doors and the auto-lock feature disables (probably because I have a Tazer and Iāve selected the feature off). With...
