Previous Install Video: • Hard Top Headliners, D...
To kick off the new 2 door JK build, we are starting with a much needed interior upgrade! While Jeeps are known to be loud, uncomfortable, and rough, its not too hard to make them a nice daily driver with a few upgrades! We are installing a full set of HotHead Headliners with sound assassin strips on the hardtop, which will not only help insulate the top from hot and cold temps but also help dampen the wind noise from the top. These are very high quality, and perform much better than the Mopar Headliners or other cheaper brands. (I have the Mopar Headliner kit on the Gladiator).
While the Headliner kit helped tremendously, the road noise from the floorboards was the next to address. The full 2 door Sound Assassin kit solved that issue quickly! This was a very dense material, and felt really thick compared to other knock off matting ive handled before. Simply remove the carpet and seats, clean out the tub and start cutting and applying!
The interior of the Jeep now feels much more comfortable and quiet, in a way it feels newer. The noise level did show a drop, and in person it is wildly noticeable. Thanks for watching and stay tuned for next weeks Jeep video!

I get the sound assassin floor liner is great, used it on my JTR, but im curious, yes, sound dampening like Stinger, DynaMat and such is heavier but only by 2-5lbs, it’s also a lot cheaper so why not use that esp considering the bulk packs have a lot more panels available?

I did this to my Jeep about three years ago. Huge difference! I also took the door panels off and was able to get quite a bit of sound deadning inside the door which made closing it also quieter. I suggest doubling or even trippling the amount of sound deadning material on the wheel wells, which is where most of the noise comes from. Especialy if you have off road tires.

That factory Loctite is no joke, depending what color they used. When I had to remove the body-mount bolts on my JT to install the Ace Engineering rock sliders, the front bolts requires a blowtorch.... they had used Red on the front, which usually the bolt snaps before the Loctite does if you don't soften it up some. I have the same rock sliders in my garage for my 2023 JLU (when it finally gets back from the dealer service from hell) and luckily I have heard the JL uses blue Loctite on the body mount bolts. Either way though, I always break them loose by hand at first before I put the impact on them. Call me cautious.

I did this to my JKU. Threw down multiple layers of asphalt deadener on the body pan and doors. Also laid in a layer of closed cell foam. Made a HUGE difference (i run 37's). I think the next most important part to sound deaden would be the doors. But they're a lot more work so I haven't done it. Plus the asphalt panels in the doors would add weight...

I had the interior tub of my '05 Rubicon Unlimited done by Line-X - the difference in sound deadening was amazing! As an added bonus, it made the interior pretty much indestructible. I think it's a better alternative to sound mats which can trap moisture and lead to rusty floorboards. (Nice German Shepherd btw - I also had a black one I named "Rubicon". I have a picture of my black Rubicon dog in my black Rubicon Jeep on the Rubicon Trail !)

@@JaiGadiel Yes, it's bedliner like Rhinoliner. I think it was around $650. I used to manage car stereo installation shops and put in lots of add-on sound deadener. For a vehicle like a Wrangler that has a high chance of getting very wet, I feel using bedliner instead of glued-on sheets will last longer and help prevent the floorboards from rusting. I also had an '81 Jeep Cherokee that I used Herculiner on, it was only about $100.

I appreciate the video. I am looking into reducing sound in the JKU. Is there a sound assassin code? Also just got my Stech pod, how has yours held up, I could not find a follow-up video.

The code GG10 should work for the sound assassin kits as well! And it’s been working great! The one thing I did do was add a small push button switch to kill power to the unit. I originally wired it so it could be used with key off, and still can, just now have a master switch

They specifically state to only use acetone to clean the hardtop. What would you recommend instead of listening to the manufacturer?

@JK Gear and Gadgets we use denatured alcohol. It's safer for plastic surfaces. Put a tooth brush in acetone and it will start to come apart

@JK Gear and Gadgets Paint thinning - Acetone is most commonly used to thin or remove paint from various surfaces in addition to be able to thin and remove lacquers and resins. Plastics - When cleaning plastics, alcohol is the best choice to effectively clean and disinfect without damaging or breaking down the plastic.

Not to sound negative but is it worth the cost to lower it a decibel or so? I’m assuming the materials were around $800-$1000

One thing to note is that a 3dB drop is roughly equivalent to half the noise. His dropped roughly 2-3dB. Up to you to decide how much that’s worth to you.
@JKGearandGadgets
@JKGearandGadgets Жыл бұрын
Dont focus on the number of the decibel. For example, a Vacuum cleaner is around 80 decibels and average office noise is 70, so a few decibels can be an insane difference. Its a huge drop in person and its a clear difference. Plus the temp difference is insane if you live in a hot or cold climate. Im sure this isnt for everyone, but i also know there are people out there who really enjoy driving their jeep long distances, and this can be worth it for sure.
