My 1991 Jeep Wrangler hasn't had a radio since I've had it. In a past video, I rebuilt my sound bar by adding larger speakers and upgraded my dome light. Now .. I add a radio to drive the speakers.

Could you please show how you hooked the wires up to the fuses and batterie

@azrick6458 5 лет назад

Great tip Chuck on the taping the wires to harness each component. I wish I had seen this sooner. The wiring under the dash in my 72 C10 looks likely a spaghetti dinner .

@Poweraddicts 5 лет назад

I've built several complete harnesses. All those wires can be a mess to keep up with. I have to break it up into sections by taping each circuit otherwise I'd go nuts!! LOL Thanks for dropping in! Have a great day!

@richardduncan7381 5 лет назад

Hey! I appreciate your videos! I’ve learned quite a bit about my YJ. One tip I’d like to share with you though... if you ever forget which wires are which when it comes to stereo speakers, you can connect them to a 9volt battery. It should create a noise that you can then use to find where your speaker wire is going!

@randomlibra 2 года назад

I love your videos. I even watch the ones I don't even need help with. Can't even have enough jeep knowledge in the pocket. Still working on my softtop doors. Bending so slow. Hopefully will be easier when it's more than 60' outside ;)

Thank you very much for the awesome comment!!! Makes me happy to know people enjoy the videos and they help so many!! Have an awesome day 😀

@yotakev99 5 лет назад

I don't know how you got by so long without a radio! I drive around 40 miles round trip to work and music is a must for me. I got a very cheap Kenwood unit off eBay and I only have 2 speakers (mounted on the floor right in front of the shifters) but they're actually pretty decent. I got a soundbar from a junkyard that I've had sitting for almost a year now and your other video reminded me to work on mine lol

@Poweraddicts 5 лет назад

My drive was 35 miles one way. I just got used to not having it. Even now that its installed, I've only turned it on a few times. I'm not really crazy about the sound quality at the moment so it just annoys me more than anything. Once I get the rest of the equipment installed I'll like it better. I'm more excited about having an interior light than the music .. LOL. Goos seeing ya drop in man! Have a great day!

@Poweraddicts 5 лет назад

Thanks! Will do!!

@alanbenjamin4890 4 года назад

Heck yeah! Got me the same radio at WalMart for $21, hooked it all up and speakers didn't work. Ended up being a bad unit, exchanged it at WalMart and everything works! Nice!

@Poweraddicts 4 года назад

It's a decent little radio. I'll eventually start adding more speakers, amp and a sub for good quality sound. Thanks for dropping in! Have a great day!!

@@Poweraddicts You too, Chuck! Thanks for all the videos!

@InjunOutdoors 5 лет назад

Twist the insulation as you pull it off the wire Makes a cleaner twist and you dont get the oil from your fingers on the wire. Also, I put a knot on the negative wire, kNot/Neg. Just my memory thingy to make it easier to remember which wire is which.

@kevindeibler346 4 года назад

I love that radio i have that same one

@jamesjohnston9970 3 года назад

I remember when I put a radio in my YJ. Got one with a removable face plate for theft protection. Worked great until one night I forgot to remove the face plate. Somebody stole the face plate!!

@RustyShacklefordPocketSand 5 лет назад

When you get time please do a vid on the YJ dash speakers. I've seen conflicting information on how to properly swap out the speakers. Thanks! - I see you mentioned this at the end of the vidjeo.

@Poweraddicts 5 лет назад

You are welcome! I'll be doing that here soon. The rear speakers don't sound bad but I do want better sound. So, I'll be putting in the front speakers soon. When the video is done I'll schedule it to release asap. Thanks and have a great day!!

@DA7545 4 года назад

I had an idea watching this at 1:28 Slide the connecter on the wire like you do with shrink tubing when soldering. Fold both end like you did here. hook them together and maybe twist them a bit. Squeeze this mechanical connection to make to small enough to slide the connecter over and crimp. May be overkill but it was just a fleeting though.

@rexdavis8094 5 лет назад

What fuse would you recommend for power hook up? I ran wires to fuse block, which one should I connect to? Thanks in advance!

@RustyShacklefordPocketSand 5 лет назад

Isn't that what the accessory key position is for? In my 88 you turn the key back.

How do you remove the antenna from the mount

@leocastillo7229 4 года назад

Hey so I’m having huge trouble with mine, PO completely destroyed all the radio wires behind the dash Did you install your harness directly to the fuse box??

@tatchik77 5 лет назад

LMAO I just bought that exact same stereo & put it in my 1991 YJ! 😁😁😁

@Poweraddicts 5 лет назад

It's a decent little radio to build from. I've got more stereo stuff to go in to expand off that little unit. Thanks for checking out the video!! Have a great day!!

Can you post a link to the wiring harness?

@taylouradams4073 2 года назад

Hey, I know it’s been 3 years but have a dumb question question for you. I’m just getting into my 90 YJ and i have 6 speakers how would I go about setting up the other 4?

@tetos1454 5 лет назад

I have the same radio in my 91 yj and sound good for me .👍

@Poweraddicts 5 лет назад

I think my cheap speakers is whats hurting the sound. The radio is a good unit. Thanks for dropping in! Have a great day!

What’s the problem? And is it stock?

@kingsoulsurfer41 4 года назад

I have a hard time reaching those speakers that you have in the Jeep I want to put speakers in those places I do have a sound bar overhead but I do want to replace those speakers

@Poweraddicts 4 года назад

It's just 4 screws per speaker. Pry the grill off, remove 4 screws. Take the old speaker out, then put the new ones in.

@clwilli 3 года назад

did you do a video for the front speakers?

@Poweraddicts 3 года назад

I've got a new set coming in Tuesday. Front speaker video coming soon.

@djsuretay1 Год назад

Hey hey hey question I have a 1994 wrangler yj with out power steering I’ve looked all over do you have a video on converting my yj into power steering please help a brother out 😢

@Poweraddicts Год назад

I don't have a video on that. My suggestion would be to find a donor rig and pull all the parts at one time.

@DerekGH Год назад

Do you have any recommendations for a replacement antenna on the YJ?

@Poweraddicts Год назад

I've never tested any one in particular. So I really can recommend one truthfully.

@DerekGH Год назад

@@Poweraddicts thank you for your response 👍

@rongray8416 5 лет назад

Strangely enough I need to do a new stereo in my 2000tj as the cd player wont play half my cd's and is only getting worse. In my case I wanted to add more functionality like a backup camera (for ease of hooking up a trailer mostly), and satnav (think it would be king of cool to not have to plug in my damn phone just to see where I might be all the time out on trails), and a few other things most Dinn2 systems can do that the stock dinn 1 that tj's come with cannot, The one vid I found on youtube that some guy did on a dinn2 conversion in his tj was pretty good...Right up till he got the the wiring...he was all detailed on everything you needed to do till it came to that part...seriously the guy did the whole "and there you go, thats how you do it" and absolutely skipped the whole ending...anyhoo whether I go the dinn 1 or 2 route I'm glad there's peeps who do show the whole process on installation be it stereos or light bars (how I found your site originally lol) cheers man keep up the good work

@SW-Video 4 года назад

What gauge wire did you use to make your harness?

@Poweraddicts 4 года назад

I dont remember right off. Probably 12ga because I rarely keep anything less than 12 around the house. I typically keep 10 and 12 in spools. Then purchase heavy gauge like 1/0, 4, 6 or 8 as needed.

@darylreederjr5393 4 года назад

Why do we never see your mustang Chuck??? Would love to see it, it's my second love compared to Jeeps.

@Poweraddicts 4 года назад

I swapped engines in it a while back. Pulled the harness to tuck and hide it. Then got into Jeeps and only fool with it occasionally. I've tossed around selling it but it is kinda fun to drive. It's got a warmed up 302 5-speed with 3.73 gears. All I gotta do is finish the harness and fire it up. With 2 Jeeps, one motorcycle that has been seen on the channel, another motorcycle that hasn't been on the channel, plus a full size rig that is gonna be on the channel soon. Lots of car insurance!! Just kinda losing interest in the Mustang. The interest may come back when I drive it again. But realistically, I need to thin down the herd!
