Just FYI for other readers, 37" K02 can squeeze into the stock spare space if you let some air out. Have to hold your mouth just right and raise it very carefully, but it will just fit. I can see how a true 38" would be a challenge.
No need to put a 3” lift for 35s unless you just want to. A 1 1/2 or 2” lift is plenty FWIW. You’ll get much better throttle response if you regear, but obviously comes with a price tag.
Curious, where did you end up wiring this? I'm looking to install a homemade kill switch in a new to me AMW conversion. I have the 41.22 in my other gladiator, but looking for a more covert option for the new JT.
nailed it. there are other such examples like this on our Jeeps, aux battery, rear locker. Most of them have workarounds for people that offroad, wish this one did - I'd carry a bypass in my recovery box.
here you go, pic of the current setup. Inverter, DC charger and Auxbeam fuse panel mounted under the Roll-n-lock. The canister for the RNL is about 10” deep and under it is a touch less than 12” of space. Hope this helps.
Just got back from a trip and need to unload to take some pics. I mount my inverter, DC charger and switch panel fuse box under there. It definitely takes some space but I utilize the rest.
I would guess between 125-150 lbs. the steel is thin so you get the strength of steel without excessive weight.
I really love this rack, gives a lot of room inside because of the shape and a lot of versatility for mounting.
I like Bak products, have one on another truck. Be aware they are not hard to open with a clothes hanger or similar approach. I’d say decent security and great protection from weather / dust, but don’t buy into this being super secure.
+1 don’t think the mounting position will matter, esp at such low power levels. I have a victron mounted flat and it’s been solid through every imaginable heat and rough terrain situation imaginable
Double check your Jack by using it to lift your vehicle and remove a tire. I found I was missing a few things by going through this exercise. In my case, one over torqued lug nut, bottle jack buddy makes it less sketchy, and a small plate to put the bottle jack on in the dirt/sand. Good test for...
Is this the same transfer case they run in the 392s? Lots of reports of burned internal clutches with those, but maybe that’s just due to the greater hp?
The Ruff Rax can attach to the rail system that is an option from Rollnlock; here’s a pic of it during assembly that will give a better idea of how it integrates.
I love this setup. Have been through Colorado Utah Arkansas New Mexico and Texas - rock solid
As others said, you don’t need a lift for 33s. To find the best shop around you for other mods, join a local Jeep group on Facebook and ask for recommendations. You might make some new friends to go wheeling with as well
