What have you done to your KK lately

Dropping it off for an oil change and tire rotation tomorrow. Today I'm shopping the idea of trading it in.

I also have a squeak inside that's coming from the passenger's side front door that may put me over the edge. I cannot pinpoint the exact location of it, nor the cause. It only occurs in the mornings or later at night when it's cooler. During the day it's fine. And the noise seems to subside when I turn left, which leads me to believe that the turning may cause just enough body flex to alleviate whatever is pinched and rubbing.

I tried to shoot a video of the squeak this morning but the tires drown it out. :lol:

Scored some factory front kj hooks for my kk from a poor liberty going to auction from work. Now to just figure out what I'm going to do to mount them. Guessing bumper will be coming off soon and I'll be buying some flat stock.

Looks good! The USB charging points could be stock, the install is so clean.

What is your wife driving? Looks like a V8 engine.

there's one around here somewhere. if not, its pretty simple hook up.

take the feed from the front outlet and route it to the center console. the rear cover is a snap on so it could be removed and drilled into outside of the jeep.

Pretty much what i did was power i made a tap tree and one of the body bolt behind the AC made a ground. Radar, DVR,front usb, rear power points all fused and tapped in.

My boss helped me figure out where the squeaking noise is coming from, so all I have to do is find a way to stop it now. But it's coming from the headliner somewhere on the passenger's side front.

My reverse sensors are still on the fritz. I'm sure one of them is dead but I'm not spending the money to have the dealer diagnose it, nor will I be spending the money any time soon to fix it. Each sensors is about $200. I'll be going without sensors until I get rid of the thing.

I installed some super awesome hardcore HD rear springs. Went from my 3-3.5" rear lift (due to only year old and sagged JBA rears), to 4.5" lift weighed down. Much stronger spring! Only modification is that these springs are a "skinny" spring and during compression they get a little too close to having spring contact.

Also custom painted...color's name was Metallica Silver!!

I haven't been doing much to my KK lately, except hauling lumber home from Home Depot for my trailer project. Some recent progress:

Got out of work today and the Jeep wouldn't start. She'd click a few times then stop. Jump started it and she ran til I got home. Pulled in my driveway, shut it down, then tried to restart her. She started right up no problems. About an hour passes, I'm heading out the door to see my girlfriend and she won't start again... :banghead:

I think the battery is shot. She's a 2011 that I've had since new and it's the original battery. Gonna try to get a battery tomorrow. What's everyone recommending? I know Optima's quality has dropped, so I think those are out...

I'm putting in an Odyssey when the time comes.

I think I'm gonna try to find a Sears die hard platinum. I believe it's the same as an odyssey, but a little cheaper. Anyone know the size we need off hand?

I recommend the Interstate AGM. Our size is 34.
