How the hell do I make it stop?? I have a box behind my back seat with two 12" subs and it sounds terrible when you are outside of the Jeep and the music is on. The tailgate just rattles so freaking bad I thought about stuffing some towels into the tailgate but that didn't do me any good.

Does anyone have this problem or have a fix to this problem??

 

I've gone around back and pushed on it before and it's the metal inbetween the air vent and the handle. I'm going to check into the dynamat and see what I can do. Thanks so much for your input Will definitely keep posted

 

dynamat that tailgate! Hopefully that will help a lot but those low bass notes shake the shit out of the jeep. Jeeps are built pretty much to be disassembled, moded, fixed...and so on with little to no effort compared to other vehicles. so there are a lot of little annoying parts that rattle and break especially with aftermarket subs hitting those low notes


im receiving my jeep tomorrow after a hefty 3,800$ sound system was installed so il let you know what the bass does but im praying nothing rattles. If you find a way to fix it by doing something else post up because odds are il have the same issue

its a jeep and its only money anyway

 

What all did you get (sound system wise)? I definitely didn't pay 3,800 for mine so yours is going to definitely shake the shit out of your Jeep!! Haha My tailgate is herculined but that definitely hasn't helped the rattle at all. I'm going to look into the dynamat more after the holidays when the audio stores around here open back up

 

I got the works done to my jeep haha brand new 2011 2dr mango tango goes straight to the shop after owning it for 3 weeks i just couldn't wait! im an audio freak and i figure il have this vehicle till it stops running seeing as I want to go to med school now so thats 10 years of school when will i be able to afford another car haha
go big or go home

I got everything done head unit bunch of amps alpine spears kicker subs capacitors new wiring and a shop voted top 5 in car audio installations in the united states to install and design the whole thing its like the night before x mas and i cant sleep because i get the jeep back tomorrow after a 14 hour install

 

Sounds like it's going to be awesome! I know exactly how you feel about school. I'm gonna have this Jeep forever and will be going into med school in 2 years after I get my undergrad. Good luck

 

the system is AMAZING! to dark for pictures sorry il do a post on it tomorrow

 

Where did they install your amps? Under seats, firewall? Pics? Just looking for some ideas for mine....

 

they installed both of the alpine amps where the jack goes. they put a board in there to raise it up an inch to protect it from water. I wanted them mounted under the front seats but the audio guy put them in there. Il post up pics when the sun comes up here in chicago. I want to keep them where they are because they are just beautiful so I can show them to people and keep thief's away at the same time. Im just worried about water gathering in the jack compartment still. I know thats an issue with 07-10 jks but does anyone know if they fixed it for the new 2011s?

Anyone been in a 2011 when the top is down and it rained on them? Could you check the jack area for water?

Il post up pictures tomorrow it is so beautiful and every time I get in the jeep and turn the radio on I cant help but grin from ear to ear.

 

Not trying to take over thread, but here is an idea for the amp. Under the back passenger side seat
