Got rid of the OEM Jeep speaks today, put in four Kenwood 6.5" 2-Way Speakers (KFC-1679IE), Great treble and highs, weak bass... which is perfect for me I already have two 10" Audiobahn subs... Didn't upgrade the wiring like alot of people suggested, the wires looked fine and beefy enough to handle the 56 watts a channel coming from my Sony Xplod deck... and I installed new front sway bar link bushings... nice and stiff in the front now, minimal nose up and nose down on acceleration and braking... and an Optima Yellow Top

Replaced the passenger upper and lower ball joints, as well as the wheel hub assembly... wow rides so nice and quiet now, I thought jeeps just had alot of rode noise.... now its smooth and stealthy.

Hey! I love the homebrew creativity you got going on, as well as the project name.

If you're ever interested, I live just about 20-30 minutes away, and can take you to some gnarly trails around the area, if you want to put your Jeep to the test.
