If the factory can put it in, so can you. But, frankly, you'd do better with an aftermarket unit.

Well that's useful!

It's JScan, regardless of what you install it on. I have it on my iPhone as well as on the Android head units I've installed in the Wranglers.

Changing the gear ratio means pulling both differentials apart and replacing the physical gears in them. If you've gone to larger tires, you probably should do this. Modifying the computer is done to correct the speedometer and such for the new gears and wheel size. You should do this if you've...

Might be the base of a CB or GMRS radio antenna. You can remove it. Seeing it without the wheel might help ID.

Unless you can specify a dB level, it's kind of impossible to recommend anything.

Get off the fence and onto the 4.56 gears. 4.10 is less than ideal for the highway. You don't have enough power and your mileage and performance will be less than they would be with the 4.56.

This. ANYTHING can be fixed, if you're determined enough and willing to spend the money. But it might be cheaper to replace. Check prices for used tops in your area, then drop by repair shops for estimates. Then check with your insurance.

You're thinking of the gray Gladiator. Me too.

If you look in the How-To section of the forum, I did a fairly extensive write-up on the first install I did. It's pretty straight forward and there are no special skills or tools required. [Addendum]Here's a link to the How-To article...
