Who else likes their Jeep interior free of carpets?

Makes cleaning and drying out much easier. No mildew. No moldy carpets. I like the look. And drain plugs easier to use when needed.

I added 1/2 inch cable covers to the exposed wires. 10 minute addition.

I don't notice more road noise our heat and the Jeep feels cleaner and more spacious.

Anyone else done this?

I am thinking about doing mine. I worry about floorboard heat during Alabama summer time heat.

I still have my carpet in but I've also heard many who get their floors sprayed with a bed loner coating. That should help with road noises and heat while still allowing for quick cleaning and drying

My carpets were gone about 3 days after I picked up my Jeep. I like to keep her naked. I did keep carpet in the cargo area though. Keeps gear from sliding all over, well reduces it anyway.

My carpet is trash. What kind of liner or paint did you spray on it?

I removed the carpet from both my previous jks. I had a little more road noise so threw some bedliner down and it dampened it. I have yet to remove it from the new jk, as I like it. I have a buddy who bedlined his jk with color. Black jk with orange accents, and orange bedliner, looks badass

Just pulled all my carpets and holy cow I had water and mud all under everything



Sometime next week I'm going to begin removing all the glue(?) and sanding the entire exterior and applying several coats of raptor liner

Have it out of the rear, have hesitated up front. I want to figure out a way to keep the floor liners I have in place.

Have a Monstaliner kit to put in, and I plan on getting a rubber "stall pad" from the local Tractor Supply for the back, so the dogs have a bit of traction and cushion available, and keep things from sliding on the bed liner material.

That is an interesting idea. I lined a horse trailer with stall mates. It would make a great cargo area liner. If it wasn't so think, I might use it to line the entire jeep.

I rolled Hurculiner in mine. I think it was worth the money.

Our local farm supply store has 1/2" thick stall mats as well as the normal 1" thick ones.

I have hesitated to pull mine out in fear of excessive road noise. My wife already thinks my jeep is like riding in a jet plane with the swampers howling on the pavement, so the thought of more noise is deterring me.

What kind do you have. I had the rubber ones from Rugged Ridge and they went back in perfectly fine with no issues!

I also run carpetless. You will have more sound and more heat. I opted to leave the factory sound/heat goop they put on the floor and run the AEV floor mats. This is a happy medium between keeping your feet cool and sound down with an easy clean-up.
