I gently pried the clips out holding it in place and so I could spray the heck out of it. Sprayed some degreaser in it and let it soak then sprayed the heck out of it again. Worked good for me. :)

That's insulation under the hood? I thought it was a mat to show off all the different types of mud that your KJ's been through. Kinda like a secret trophy case.

Just keep in mimd that that insulation serves ans sound proofing for engine noise, wich none of us care about but most importantly, it keeps the heat away from your hood, thus extending the life of the paint job. I f you take it off . cut some louvers on your hood to let the heat out.

I asked a friend of mine that works in the body shop of my local Chrysler dealer if taking it off would hurt the paint. He said no.
