@@juniormartinez1807 several different sites and forums say this bumper is also class 3, rated up to 5000 lbs.

Overall holding up great. Only small issue has been near both rear corners, a little separation, but I'm sure it is from being too lean with the adhesive in both areas. I pushed them back up with my hand, and they held the rest of the summer. Will probably need to be re-glued at some point, but not a problem so far. It had a real nylon flag when I bought it, which I tried first, but that did not adhere at all. The fibers on the blanket helped it tack/stick great, plus it's soft to the touch, and fairly customizable/unique, I get compliments pretty regularly, from law enforcement to teenagers. I've been pretty happy with it.

@@mreclectic3054 yeah it’s cool. Good work. I was thinking if one were to take the foam off and glue one, it would never come off.

Possibly, but I could not say for certain. I would use a multimeter or power-probe to test parts and/or connectivity. See if you have power going in/out of the module. A little research to find which pin supplies the power, especially out of it, put power to it and see if the motor comes to life. Mine was loosing functionality over time, seems like it would have eventually not worked at all, so there is a possibility your module has died. Let me know if that ends up being the case.

@@alankott3129 glad it worked for you too. I’ll double check settings for replies.

@@alankott3129 I anticipate you’ll find the same success I did, let me know. All the best.

@@mreclectic3054 Worked like a champ. Only had to remove the left most Torx screws on the cover plate to get access. Bought it on Ebay for $45. Maybe I paid too much but it works now. Thanks for the info!

@@mreclectic3054 I ordered one through Ebay and it worked great. Thanks for the info!

@@mreclectic3054 Bought one through Ebay and it worked great. Thanks for the info! BTW, this is my third attempt to reply. The other two times never showed up. Wierd.

You have given me a few ideas to contemplate. Some sort of grommet and hook set up, or a quick connect buckle sewn on, like the type on a hiking pack…thank you for the inspiration. I’ll let you know what comes of it.

@@mreclectic3054 Absolutely! Keep me posted how it turns out. God bless you and yours In Jesus Name my friend!

Hose widths would be great!

All the best!

Thanks for the advice. The mask I have has a chemical filter in it, intended for welding, soldering etc., recommend by the Miller welding company.

I have not had that issue, but I also have not drained the battery very low, around 30% is lowest I've had it I believe. I recently ran a heat gun off of it, which is the most draw I've put it through...it did it, but fan speed on the gun was noticeably reduced, and readout indicated it would only run it for 15 minutes (I used it for about 3). But still no low voltage issues. Try charging it, but if that doesn't work, you may have got a lemon.

Thank you for the feedback, I'll try to do better.

I got this rear bumper from Amazon for $477. Vicious off-road is another good site to check.

Okay a 2002. What? Durango if so, which engine and what amper does the alternator? Thank you for the Intel

The unfortunate aspect of older rigs. But, I’d rather work on something old and more mechanical than the newer electronic stuff.

😝

Thanks

Thank you for the information. It has taken me a minute to address the issue, partly because I had a hard time finding the part. The OE version of the module is no longer available, and looking for an alternative part online yielded nothing, surprisingly. After that I kind of learned to deal with it. But recently go married, and the wife has driven it a few times in the rain and made it clear how frustrating it was for her, not knowing or really wanting to learn the nuances of how to get by as I had been. So I was motivated to find a solution. A forum thread addressing the module said there were certain GM cars that had a compatible module, (very broad and therefore not very helpful), and a few years of grand Cherokee. This was more helpful, but still lacked specifics. Some people said they had done the “swap,” and even showed blurry pics, but did not specify the year of the doner vehicle or part number. Today I went to the salvage yard where they had 4 early model XJ’s like mine. The module was gone in all of them. But there were around 20 zjs, so I started looking through them. Found a module that looked like a match to the blurry forum pic in a ‘95. Ran me $8.50. Put it in soon as I got home, and voilà! Full functioning wipers and washer fluid. If not for your suggestion, I would have replaced the multifunction lever and been chasing wiring needlessly for who knows how long. You saved me a bunch of time and $, thanks again.

I believe the externally regulated alternator started being used in the '91 or '92 model year. It seems those upgrading after that change occurred have had success. I saw one other TH-camr upgrade the alternator on his '89, which is the same as mine, but he didn't mention how he got it to regulate. I posted an update video just a few hours ago...this upgrade ultimately did not work, that video goes over the details. Consensus is that going from internal to external regulation was far more complicated than just adding an independent ex-regulator. That said, whereas your jeep already has an externally regulated system, the second ex-regulator I tried could work well for you. I say that because it came with a "field replacement module," which you may recall from the vid, the purpose of which is to trick your pcm into thinking it's still hooked up, when you have bypassed it using the independent ex-regulator, as I think you are planning to do. Instructions indicate it keeps the battery warning light off on your dash panel.

Thanks for the kind words. I don't know if EAG makes any light bar specific attachments, but many of the light bars I have looked into have mounting hardware. I would just verify the hardware is for the correct size tube, you may even be able to search for the light bar based on the tube attachment kit with it.

Forbidden ZYNS😭😂

Not a promo or sponsor. I paid full retail for both items. Just trying to provide helpful information to others.

I did not make the bumper. I purchased it, info linked in the description.

You are correct, they were bottoming out on the bracket. I moved them back one more hole and they now clear the back of the bracket and its riding much better. Thanks.

You mean it took 3 hours longer than it would have because I was rolling around the garage floor with a broken rib, right?!

It was worse than I remembered, how about you?

@@mreclectic3054 Yes worse:( Even though i had a front row seat seeing the footage is just like wow thats going to take more than a hour lol
