Hey everyone. I have a question about the bed outlet that can be added to the bed of the JTs. I ordered a Gladiator, but the dealer didn’t order it with the Cargo Management and Trail Rail group. Now I’m in a crappy situation because I’d really like to have that package, but I really don’t want to have to wait on another order.

Can this package be added on with aftermarket parts with the same expectation of it coming from the factory? My dealer offered to have the outlet installed, but I’m just worried I won’t get what I was expecting.

I’m not sure what goes on under the hood to make this package happen, so if someone can list exactly what I should expect to have with this package that would be awesome. I want to know as much as possible so that I can ensure the dealer doesn’t screw it up even more. Thanks!

They'd have to also install the 400W inverter. I can't imagine that's an easy process using OEM equipment but I could be wrong.

There's a thread here somewhere where someone tried to add the outlet. The wiring harness needed to make it work is not there. The wiring harness for the 120v bed outlet is only installed if the option is factory ordered.

I'd love a huge wattage outlet. Like 1,500. I was gonna use the interior one to run a kettle one night in Yosemite but it was only 400w and the kettle was 1,200.
