And now, i apparently, i drained my BRAND NEW battery when i was installing the speakers, and so we tried to jump it, but we think the alternators f*cked up because the jeep won't hold a charge. Any other ideas about what it could be? Any tips are appreciated.

Pop the alt off and take it to be tested. It very well could be bad. The battery won't take a charge when you try and jump it though?

As for tires if you never want to be stuck and you want to be the envy of all your friends get some mickey Thompson baja claws

You won't see bad reviews on a mucky Thompson tire. They have some of if not the highest standards in the industry when it comes to manufacturing they're tires.

Nope, it got up to 14 volts, and we disconnected the cables and the voltage dropped again. And how do the baja claws do on the road? i was looking at them adn love the tread design!

So, we tried jumping it again, asnd this time, it started! so i pulled it around and parked it in the front yard. I got done vacuuming it, and when it tried to turn over, it started clicking like the alternator was going out, and then lost all voltage so looks like i'll be ordering another alternator tomorrow

canwait to see the lift on it when ever you get to it lol. you should just build a stroker instead

NewJerseyXJ609

Did you try tapping the starter with a hammer while someone turns it over. The starter could be stuck too. You never know

sc_jeeper

I know, i've been wanting the lift since i first saw this thing! And do you mean like a stroker engine?

No, i haven't tried that, but my dad said to do the same thing. But, my momma said that whenever her alternators went bad, it made a clicking sound when it tried turning over, and that's what mines doing. So today, i'm gonna try to get the alternator tested, if i can get that S.O.B. out

If its brand new you should have a warranty...

sc_jeeper

Yeah, it does. If the alternator doesn't fix it, im taking the battery back

jomps

Also with a low voltage at your battery you can get the clicks...have you been able to jump it and let it run for a little?
