mine had no flooring except rubber mats for ruggedridge of course the noise is not what Im used to, after coming from toyo tacoma! thinking of using some type of "bedliner" spray on in the front part of tub, not sure if that will help to deaden the noise at all.
What did you do to your TJ today?

Just dropped my stock TJ at 4 Wheel Parts for tires, wheels, 2.5" lift, oil change, differential service, driver seat extender, under seat safe, gas fill hose fix, & grab bars. First changes in 12 years! Can't wait to see it Tuesday or Wednesday.

Towed a 6x12 enclosed trailer all the way to my new place - couldn't stay in 5th gear - had to drive the 2.5 hours in 4th gear. Now wanting to cut weight off of my Jeep!
If I had the 4 cylinder, just, no.

Just curious. How much weight in the trailer? What size tires on the Jeep? My stock Jeep pulls my 1000# boat up hills 65mph with no problem.

I couldn't help visiting the TJ. Pick it up tomorrow.

I am not sure! The trailer itself weighs 1,000lbs. Plus all my stuff adds another 500 lbs. I'm guessing. But, I also have 33" tires, steel wheels, big steel front bumper, winch on front with steel cable, and 3.73 gears.
I can see yours has its stock wheels and stock tires in that pic.
That was my though. I heard 33's can reduce towing. I just put 31's on. Hopefully I won't have an issue as the Jeep and the boat are a team... [emoji4]I am not sure!

How does your Jeep drive with the 33's and 3.73 gears?

Where's that at? I was hoping there was somewhere near by. I would definitely like to go. I'm on call all this week, and I'm in the process of replacing pinion seal. If everything goes well next week I will be free.
I think your ease of acceleration would be reduced slightly - but 31" tires weigh much less than 33's! I wouldn't worry about it at all.
I always could tell that I drive unnervingly slower than everyone else on the road - but I never thought much of it because I still get where I'm going, and like the fact that I get better fuel economy at highway speeds.
However, I am going to be shedding a lot of weight soon for this reason, but keeping the 33" tires.
It's 40 minutes north east - real real close. And it's $20 a person per day.
But sounds good! Soon I'm gonna replace my whole front axle. Not too excited for that.
And I'm not sure when exactly id like to go to the park. I just know I'd like to go.
Picked up Sahara front seats with brackets and rear seat off CL. Seats are in great condition just need to be cleaned, can't wait to put them in.
got all the spine lugnuts off all my wheels since they masters were not given to me...$20.00 at the tire shop was worth it since so rusted they striped out on the tire tech and he struggled with it for an hr. shop attached to Napa auto parts store, poor guy came in there three times while I was ordering new lugs, rear diff gasket and rubber plug, spark plugs and wires, taking tools off the shelf to get um removed not sure what it cost for them to get those lugs off but only charged me $20.00 SMAL VICTORIES!
I rented a small carpet cleaner that has an upholstery attachment in the past. Works awesome just use half of the recommended soap.
Nice find! As far as cleaning... my plans are to invest in a small steam cleaner. Would work great to get those cleaned like new.
Here is the one I have on my Amazon wish list. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0000DF0RB/?tag=wranglerorg-20
