They fit perfect...they press right on without much force and are very snug. Once they're on they look like they came stock. For $20 you can't beat it.
Too simply and they do fit very nice...

It's for the vehicles that have either the 7.0 or 8.4 radios with automatic climate control...at least that is what the photos show. You can see from my photos what my stack looks like.
Ah well there ya go. Having that 5 inch radio fails me again lol

I did this two days ago, hope I'm not breaking the thread rules! 😉

Got all 5 37" KO2s mounted on my new KMC machete beadlock wheels. Used the balance beads and I've driven maybe 70-80 miles so far. I wanted to get the new wheels and tires on to give it a shake down with the stock suspension before I put the lift kit on. Hopefully I'll be putting the lift kit on soon. I bought the HD tire carrier from cavfab and it looks pretty beefy, but I must of been half asleep when I ordered it because it showed up raw steel, thought I forgot to select the painted option, went back and looked at the website and sure enough it lists that it ships as raw steel 🙁. Stupid me, now I need to find somewhere to get it painted.

How did the balance weights work for you? I am considering using balance beads in my 35s. Do you know what brand you used? How much did you use per wheel? Also I assume you did not use balance weights and the beads? Just the beads?

The balance beads seem to be working pretty good, but I've only used the beads and haven't had a set of 37s before with weights so I can't speak from a comparison standpoint. Only that I haven't had any issues with the beads. Yes I am using the balance beads only, no wheel weights.

The brand I used was Counteract purchased through my local Napa store. They have a app you can download to calculate how much you need per tire. For my setup 12oz per tire is what was recommended so I went with that.

Thanks for the feedback. I was on their site and downloaded the app. It calls for 14oz per tire for my M/Ts. I saw they sell them on Amazon but I might try my local napa store. Thanks for the feedback.

I installed a PG Cabin Air Filter, #PC99454. A functional $17 equivalent to the costlier OEM filter. Maybe next time I'll go all in for the $66 K&N filter.

The original was in situ for 14.5 months and 24K miles. These filters do get dark sooner rather than later, don't they?

The Mopar one is cheaper, so why not go OEM?

Well, a little more for the V6 one I guess:

Amazon shipped the $17 PG filter for free. Purchased from All Mopar Parts, the $15.69 OEM filter would have cost $23.86 via USPS, or an otherworldly $37.40 via UPS Ground.

We have to stay one step ahead in these matters. ;)
I just ordered the cabin and engine air filters together from Allmoparparts for less than $50 delivered.

Obviously it's your choice to use whatever you like, but for a few extra bucks I'd rather stick with OEM. Plus Allmoparparts supports this forum.
