Sound Dampening and Heat Shields

[DuvallDawg]

After replacing my floor boards I am looking to install Sound dampening mattting into my EB, any war stories on the good bad and ugly of the different brands? Was looking at the Tom's kit as its already pre cut?

Any ever used this one or have a better one in mind?

Thanks!

Make sure whatever you use it is iether bonded to the floor boards, easily removable, or your Bronco is more water tight than a frogs butt. Water will settle in under anything you put in and cause your hard work to go to pot.

...water tight than a frogs butt...

That's one of my favorite seens from Mr Mom.

I actually got it from Michael keaton in Gung Ho. When the Japanese auto execs ask him if he can deliver the cars on time. There's also one there about the Pope being Catholic and if bears sh#t in the woods.

Agreed. It will look better, deaden sound just as much, and your Bronco won't look like a baked potato

I have spay-in bedliner and then placed the pre-cut insulation pieces in the foot wheels on both the drivers and passanger side as well as over the trans hump. I did not tap the seems this way if the ones on the DR/PS do get wet I can pull them out. I have then placed a vinyl pre-formed floor covering on it..works well and is much quieter
