Was putting in the interior in the back today and I figured i had to put some speakers in when I first had it out. A friend had some I could use, they were not 4 inches but a bit over 6, so I had to chop off a bit to make them fit.
It came with tweeters also so I made them fit on a cover
Wired them up to the amplifier I have underneat the driver seat(left one in my case)

look what came in today! Was just going to take a look at how much work it was but ended up changing them! Took me 2.5 hours with good equipment.
Put the grill on the rear shock bolts, came of easy.
Have to drive with it for a couple weeks for it to settle then do a wheel alignment. Changed stab links at the same time. Would really recommend the comfort trailmaster! Totally different car now, not bouncy at all

Great looking, and 2.5 hours? took me 5 at least.
I liked your grill!
I usually weld on a nut on stuck bolts, gives the same effect but more time consuming.
I recommend to also change to offset bushings in the front radius arms to correct the angles. makes it much better handling after the lift. Beware that some of the bushings being sold does not give enough correction for two inch lift.
Still managed to get green numbers on the wheel alignment print out to get it approved at the "vegvesen" though..
Steering damper as well makes for nice handling and is recommended if you go for bigger tyres..

Yes the induction heater works well, dont know what we did before it. Will order a steering damper on jimnybits when they get the offset wheels in, maybe buy some of the bushes also ![:) :)](/media/kunena/emoticons/8.png)
