OEM JTR fog lights in RR Arcus Bumper

['22JTRD]

Has anyone who installed the Rugged Ridge Arcus also installed their OEM LED Rubicon Fog Lights ?

RR instructions say the oem JTR LED fogs do not fit / mount.

Any input as to if a fabricated adapter ring / mounting bracket would make theses fogs compatible?

Sorry, I don’t recall. I ended up replacing mine with a set from Baja designs, you should be able to fab something up rather easily. I was able to and I’m a baboon with a grinder.

Contrary to the online instructions from RR and the YouTube install video, the OEM Rubicon LED fogs will work with the Arcus.

Do you have a link to your shackle mounts? I don't like the tusks all that much and think yours looks great.

You will need to cut a small round nib off the back

I bolted it onto the frame horn in 2 holes with the Arcus nut plate to hold it while I used a Sawzall with a good metal cutting blade , same for both sides

Then touched up with Krylon

My 2022 Mojave LED fogs have the 4 screw mounting and directly bolted to the Arcus pods. The Arcus adapters are used to mount fog lights which have only 3 screw positions.

The Teraflex extended out further than the Rugged Ridge similar mount .

RR doesn't extend out enough to clear the Arcus shell and leaves the shackle hole too close to mount a shackle

The TF was also quite a bit less than another tall tab one that I found.

Thank you! I had read the RR didn't extend enough. Adding the TF to the list of mods to be done.

1 more thing
The TF has recessed ring around each bolt hole

I put a 5/8" galvanized split ring washer in each one to back fill the space between the shell and mount.

Reviving this......I just spent over an hour on the chat with Rugged Ridge about the Rubi fogs not fitting. I have a new Arcus sittiing in my garage waiting for me to buy a winch. I will report back, but I'm so glad to see that they actually do fit. Once I do the installation in the next couple months, I'll post back up to confirm fitment. I also plan to let Rugged Ridge know about this so they can correct their information.

Thanks, OP, you saved me some frustration. I wish I'd seen this before going to RR for support!

I was really ticked because I love the Arcus. I had one on my JK. I love both the look and the light weight of it. And the winch plate is solid. I did a number of winch pulls on my JK and it handled the stress with no sweat.
