New to me gladiator - front camera relocation??????

[jpfeif34]

Hello All,

Trading in my 2012 jkur with 230,000 miles and picking up a new to me gladiator tomorrow (as long as it doesn't sell before I get there). 2021 JTR w/ 53,000. Metallic Grey. Grey AEV borahs on load c 37x12.5r17 BFG Ko2's (had KO2 before, wasn't impressed) that are basically new. Has a Teraflex CT3 2.5" w/sp2.2 shocks, rockslide engineering steps, rockslide engineering front bumper w/ bull bar, warn evo vr 12 (switching to synthetic ASAP), and some underbody protection from Teraflex, haven't been under it yet .33k.

It doesn't have a front trail camera and was planning on ordering one later this evening. My question is with this big bull bar on the front bumper, has anyone figured out a relocation bracket? Can you move it lower down in the grill slots and get full field of vision? Anybody with any knowledge or prior experience would be very helpful. DV8 has a relocation bracket for Bronco's that looks awesome. Ties into the winch fairlead. Doubt it would work for a Jeep though wire wise.

The front factory Trail Camera that ties into the NAV system is not something you can just order and plug in.

It is something you can order and plug in from Z automotive. The Z automotive one isn't an HD camera like the factory but its 720p and mounts in the grill and you run wires from grill, through hood, through the firewall and plug into the system under the center panel.

720p is literally HD. That Z Auto camera is 480i. The Uconnect 4 'cargo cam' input cannot accept a 720 camera.

The OEM front cam is worth doing. It's a lot easier to do now than in the past.
