Installing Kilmat Sound Deadening Material in Jeep Wrangler TJ, with Before & After Sound Test
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Decided to install 80 mil thick Kilmat sound deadening material in the Jeep. Watch until the end to see a before and after noise test and judge for yourself. I Should note I also added carpeting as well. It obviously isn't as quiet as a luxury sedan, but I did notice a considerable amount of difference. I'd say this is a great alternative to Dynamat.

sounds like the higher frequency noise was removed which is awesome, thanks for the video.
Excelente trabajo y dedicación, felicidades. Seguiré tu ejemplo
if you want true sound reduction you need mass loaded vinyl. This type of material will help with resonance from vibrating metal panels but if you want to go all out you need mass and a de coupling layer of closed cell foam. ResoNIx makes a really great product for this called ResoNix Barrier but its $$$. Good luck everyone trying to quiet down thier jeep.
I love the video I just did my Prius
great video , how much product did you use? I want to of the same on my tj! did it help with heat from the tranny/engine ? Thank you
Thnk u for posting this. Will be doing the same. I hope it blocks radiant heat too. All i have currently is carpet and its too darn hot in here.

It's been LA "cold" lately so can't speak for those summer drives, but I haven't noticed the usual amount of heat coming up... the foil back linging should help.
Nice work 👍🏼… I was thinking of doing the same to my YJ, & looking at either the killmat or dynamat products. I’ve also considered going over the sound mats inside my Jeep’s tub with bedliner. What do you think? Reduce sound (and possibly heat), while also keeping the tub protected from any water that might get in..
Sick. How many boxes did you use?
I am actually doing my 2022 jeep escape brz right now

@@jeepshak Thank you so much Sir! Really appreciate it!😃
Awesome video! Am planning to do this with my yj, I planned on using a 200 mil silhess layer and then a closed cell foam on top of that. Was thinking about doing under the hood and the hard top too. Do you feel like the mats affected how the carpet fit in your tj?

I was never a fan of the Wrangler carpets. Always felt flimsy and never stayed in place. With the sound deadener or maybe anything underneath seems to keep the carpets in place better. Or maybe it's just too soon to tell?
hi - have you found the Kilmat installation to be worth it? Considering it for my XJ. thanks!

Hey there. Yea, I think it was worth it. I went into it with the not expecting much and knowing it's not going to get super quiet like a luxury sedan, but there is a noticeable difference from before. I was running no carpets and just herculined interior so I probably had the worst case scenario as a baseline. The best way I can describe the change is that all the noise is now muffled. My only regret was not accurately taking decibel readings before. I plan on installing kilmat in the door panels as well to if I can get it even quieter, ha! Hope this helps!
It doesn’t look like he prepped anything
