Come on, you didn't try hard enough- surely you snoop the back ground as hard as I do...

Check the table and background

But seriously, when there are more leaves than cigarette butts in the floor, it's time to clean up..

You all would not step foot in mine. It's a mess. A disaster. Love the Mj. I'd love to have a jeep that looked cool and performed well. I just hack shit together though. Maybe one day. The only thing I would do different is put some sort of Jeep motor in instead of the Chevy stuff everyone is doing. I've always felt Jeeps need jeep stuff Chevy needs Chevy stuff and Ford needs Ford stuff. But awesome build I love it. I'm truly in awe and appreciate you sharing your building knowledge with us.

I’m thinking those cup holders are gonna need 4 point harnesses for those “higher jumps” at 140MPH.
 
I’m just a newb, but what dark magic keeps all that from rattling? Or is it, and I’m quoting my old man, “you can’t hear that crap over the engine anyway”.

Tight fasteners..[emoji6].

There will be some rattles to chase down I'm sure, always are. But I go to great lengths for all the tabs to preload the panels without distortion, as well as putting extra bends along the edges to have tension on each fastener... I don't like rattles or leaks.


I'm sure the engine and road noise well cancel some of it out as well. Nothing some sound deadener won't help with... or earplugs [emoji44]

My personal vote is negative on the diamond pattern.....nothin' else got it so far.

As an edit.........it intrigues me cause I figure you got something else brewing to go with it.

I have some diamond tuck on the panel behind my seats and it's never been noticed and I question why I even done it.

Seat tab, needed room to get to it... and water drain. [emoji6]

The floor is not weather tight like the rest of the cab is.

I think either of those 2 places would be a great place to try it out. Not obvious, but fits in when someone notices its there.
 
More...

The cup holder piece is kind of the keystone of the center tunnel section (albeit, the last piece that would be removed, so as to be a fully functional vehicle when all the panels are removed for cleaning.) So I added these skirts to aid in fastening the lower pieces.

Tried to do this tunnel panel in one shot, but quickly determined wasn't going to happen, therefore I flanged all the sides and made two pieces.
