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 it’s solid stuff that should work well. It probably added 20 pounds to the Jeep. I’m 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 below… For those of you who replaced their sub…did you drill and tap a hole in the magnet of your new sub...

I’m 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 1” 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 on… My son wanted to do the same with his snowmobile… I poked a bamboo stick in the snow and we still have snow about 6” 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 I’d much prefer a disconnect switch rather than a fuse. I’m considering Flaming River 500 amp switch. What all are...

Anybody using one of these? Curious how it sounds. I believe it’s a Phoenix Gold 400watt RMS Dual 4Ω Voice Coils. I’m also concerned about adding additional weight to my tailgate. It has 114lbs for aftermarket 20” wheel/35”tire. I do have the Mopar hinge reinforcement (not sure how much...

As a thanks to all the help I receive from you people I figured I’d offer some stuff I’m not using for free here. 1. Front driver side and passenger side precut window tint. I believe it’s 30% but I could be wrong as it’s been sitting in the shipping container in my garage for at least a year...

Hey folks! I’m in need of a good battery d-block system. The nut holding the three wires has only a couple threads engaged on the bolt… I’ve seen these (but not sold on them yet, unless someone says they’re great) and I’m not quite sure how they would fit… 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 52” 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 folks…will someone please check my fusing with my proposed amplifier fuse setup as I’m totally frying my brain with this. Here’s 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...

I’m 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 it’s basically just like the factory dual battery setup. Why would I spend the money on the Genesis system when it’ll end up being like what...

I’m looking to tap into the the left (or right as it doesn’t matter) full range speaker in the soundbar on a 21 JLUR with the Alpine system and 8.4” receiver. Anyone know which are the correct wires? Here is the wiring schematics Here’s what I’m 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 don’t work together. I’ll be removing my recline kit so the seat can latch again. Other than that, the Stealthbox fits and looks great. Can’t wait to hook it up!

What’s up good folks!? I’ll be installing the driver side JLAudio Stealthbox (in a 4 door) and will be driving it with an amp that is 7” x 7” x 2” high along with a capacitor. I also will need to mount a Line Output Converter that is 7”x3”x1”high. Looking for suggestions as to where to mount...

First I’ve heard of this portal axle stuff (saw it in January ‘23 Four Wheeler Magazine), but apparently they’ve been around for decades. Sounds like a winner to lift (3.9”), 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...

I’ve never had an electronic owners manual before and thought I’d share a few great features of it here. I downloaded it to my phone for my 2021 here… https://cdn.dealereprocess.org/cdn/servicemanuals/jeep/2021-wrangler.pdf What I find great about it (or maybe it’s my phone I’m uncertain) is...

Hey! So I’m absolutely done with this auto-lock feature that automatically jams it into park if you don’t have your sealt belt on and the door open. I’ve noticed I can remove the doors and the auto-lock feature disables (probably because I have a Tazer and I’ve selected the feature off). With...
