Very nice build. For the transfer case Part time is for everyday normal driving, and Hi Lo are just like regular Hi and Lo. Use only on loose surface.

So I am going to go buy the rest of the supplies to put the speakers in. I need at least 6 squares of deaden and some poly fill.

I am tired of the power cable and RCA's sitting on the passenger floor. So I need to get my a$$ in gear!

Last night I fixed my rear hatch. It was popping open every time the auto lock function kicked on. I adjusted the bracket in the back... Jeep did a good job of making these types of things adjustable.

I also adjusted the steering box... It made a HUGE improvement to my steering "play"!

So everything is installed. I have a blown tweeter in the dash. Not sure why since they were brand new but it doesn't work and is reading nothing on my Ohm meter!

So my Jeep GC did NOT have the infinity system. So I didn't have speakers up on the dash. This is where I put the tweets.

From the inside:

From the outside:


The Sub I bought it is a vented enclosure.

The amp rack up close. I have to currently split my RCA's because I only have one set of pre-outs on my current CD player. I should have a new one soon!

From the back.


I didn't take picture of the door speakers or the wires being run. I have to use a half inch speaker ring in the doors to get the speaker to not hit the window when it is down. The toughest part was running new wires through the factory rubber bushing between the doors and cab.

Next I have to update my battery terminals. I am getting a wicked buzz when I turn my headlights on. All part of the car audio DIY!

Got a new HU! And now no more buzz!

I have my Ipod cable and the AUX cable coming out of the ash tray. So I can hide them if I want too!
