Never heard of Pyle... Have to research em.

Hooked a strap to it and pulled out a stuck YJ. Then used it to plow down small trees and brush trying to open up a trail on my property so I can get the Jeep to the back side of the property. Only made it half way though, have to take the chainsaw with me to get the rest of the way through there.

I aint calling them. Only thing im going to hear is 'its not their fault, damage happened during transport, it was my fault, one bad speaker out of millions, never had this issue before... Blah blah blah...' Been down that road before.

RF is to dang expensive. I drive a Jeep not a beamer, lmao
That sucks and not really shop around for them they are pretty cheap. I can get one of their high end 10" shallow mounts subs for $59 shipped.

Here's what I just put in a week ago. Ripped the headliner off the pod, wire brushed it and painted it with bed liner. Put some weather stripping in for spacer. These old *** pioneers aren't bad. Just wish i would have secured the wires. Getting some vibration. Took less than an hour even with paint drying. Getting ready to put an 8" shallow mount kicker into the space on the passenger side cargo area. Depth is perfect, and it takes no cargo area up. Hope i have better luck with kicker!

I have to pull it apart to pad and secure the wires. I'll take picks on how it goes together.

Adjusted the toe to about 1/2" out. Noticed my front 3" coil was broken on the drivers side.

Time to go on a diet

Feel like I'd twist that upper control arm mount
