It sound like a good idea, but unfortunately i dont have the $$ at the moment. if at some point you look to sell your 909s mike do let me know, i might be interested if i can at the time

Heres the pics:
each TIRE ALONE weighs 75lbs?... No, I see, tire track says 49lbs each.

3.75 BS is ideal IMO. I have 2 sets of wheels, one with 3.75 and one with a 4.0.

I'm not in a rush for tires. Ideally, A/T's as I'm looking for a set of 33 x 12.5 x 15 for daily driver use.

I believe the changes were for the 2010 and forward MY's and if the 2010 soft top in question includes the 2010 door surrounds it will fit fine.

I had a 2008 which I sold, but I kept the soft top and surrounds. They fit on my 2011 perfectly.

The problem is matching a new soft top with older surrounds.

FWIW... $500 for a clean OE JKU soft top with surrounds? Jump on that. Especially if they are tinted windows and OE tail gate bar.

I have a 2009 JKU OE softtop with Surrounds and hardware, and tinted windows and OE tailgate bar I am selling for 400$ If anyone is looking... I also have a second set of windows for it (tinted also) with a tailgate bar, I would throw in for 50$ or sell on the side for 100$...

Mike, you still want this Nav unit? I would sell it for 300$, and do the install for you... if you don't like it for any reason I could un instal and you could be on your way... should take all of a half hour tops

Yeah, I am..

I was travelling for the past week. sorry.

So, I fully expect the steering wheel controls to not work with your kit.. Any challenges you might see with the 2011 dash design? Will I need to fab some kind of face plate filler panel?

And, what's the deal with the maps.. how current are they.

I have zero in the way of aftermarket stereo gear so my only interest is because of the NAV unit...

and maybe to watch some porn at stop lights..


Call me if it's easier to discuss.. if you don't have my phone, just PM me..

I do have it I will text you when I get a chance at work, or just call later today.
Maps I want to say are 2008 ? which is the most recent they have for the system (that I know of)
and I haven't found a road in the NE that isn't listed (even some newer/dirt roads upstate are there somehow)

I do not know 100% with the steering wheel controls... I don't have any so mine wouldn't work, but I know that this PAC harness thing that I have plugs directly into the Chrysler harness... as for your head unit filler plate thing, I don't know if the radios changed at all sizes or whatever for the stock ones, but it fits directly in the stock hole, so I would assume the mounting kit I have would work same as it is supposed to... I forgot the dash is different, so Install might be a little different but It really was a total of like 6 hex bolts on the 2009 -

My bro's got a 2012 and I think the dashes are more similar, I will look at lunch today at work to see if it looks really different inside or anything like that.

2011 & 2012 are the same dash and going from memory the size of the HU in the 2011 is the same as what was in my 2008.

We'll talk later.
