What did you do to your TJ today?

The Tuffy tailgate enclosure came today. A warning for anyone who has sound deadened the rear of their Jeep: apparently the enclosure is designed to be a pretty snug fit with just the factory carpet. So when you add in 2 layers of sound deadener, and a bedrug….. let’s just say I finally resorted to a rubber mallet and some swift kicks using the bottom of my shoe to get it to seat properly 😅😅

But it’s in there!! View attachment 306849

Pic was taken before I smoothed the side carpet out and cleaned off the shoe prints 🤣🤣
I am a great believer in the following......🔨

Installed a Cobra 29, gleaning a lot of great info from other posts. Using a 4ft Firestik. SRF calibrated less than 0.5 on channels 1 and 20, but around 1.5 on 40. So, more research!!View attachment 306280View attachment 306281

When I mounted the 2M antenna I used the hole for the third brake wiring as the mounting hole. I had already removed the factory third brake light and installed the circular LEDs inside the spare tire rim. This setup works great without drilling any new holes.

Does it bolt to the fenders like the factory one? I bought a factory one off of CL and had to install nutserts to bolt it to fenders.
