    One of the ways to get the long tire bumper fully seated is to leave the interior trim piece off during installation. You can then use a pair of pliers to grab the threaded tip of the bumper and pull it until is literally pops in and becomes fully seated. Using a little glass cleaner on the threaded tip of the large bumper does also help a little.

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is a great tip! They actually just changed the design on the newest long bumpers and now have a push in clip style vs. the screw in. It is soooo much nicer to work with. Thanks for the view!

Currently using the stock lug nuts, and seems to block the cover, do I need some low profile lug nuts. Also is it possible to just purchase the extra long rubber isolator from Mopar? Thank you!

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is just a small tab that you push down and then the connector should pull apart. Sometimes the tab will get stuck and you will need to use a small screw driver to pry up on the other end of the tab. Hopefully you got it and thanks for the view!

    In addition to the reinforcement kit, Did you purchase the whole spare tire carrier or were you able to purchase the bracket assembly? Not just seeing just the bracket on the Mopar site. I think the carrier that came with my Rubicon should be able to be reused.

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Just the tailgate reinforcement and the tire carrier lift brackets, both of the part numbers should be in the description, but yes you are correct you reuse the factory tire carrier and bolt it on with the two new Mopar parts.

    How thick are spacers in the relo kit? How much does the tire carrier rise from stock position?
    Trying to figure out how much the spare tire carrier will rise and how much it will be pushed out from tailgate due to spacers...
    Also, my JLUR came with Mopar Tailgate Reinforcement so i'm just wanting to raise my spare a bit after getting 35s. Do I need to install any additional spacers since my setup has spacers already to fit spare tire carrier with tailgate reinforcement offset?

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      There are 2 kits or parts installed in this video. Since you already have the reinforcement you would just need to tire carrier bracket parts. I think I raises the tire carrier around 1.5-2in to help clear the larger tires. No you normally would not need to add any more spacers but might need to adjust the tire rubber stops accordingly, the kit comes with new longer tire bumpers. Thanks for the view!

  • @mattrobinson775
    @mattrobinson775 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Question for you Tyler or anyone else.. I had the dealer install this on my 2021 JL and the backup sensors are going off, they say it's the tire causing it and claimed to not be their issue. I don't buy this expanation. I bought the jeep with added 35s and this tire rack into the deal. I think they messed up the installation somehow, maybe the tire is sticking out too much or something. Did this jeep have this issue? anyone else see this issue? Nice video.. looks fairly easy and maybe I can fix this myself.

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It seems to be very hit-and-miss on which jeeps will get angry about the tire sticking out further, it seems like the ones with after market wheels with more backspacing or offset that stick out further will be more likely to have the issue. We have been told forever ago that there was going to be a software update to fix the park sensor issue but as of now I have yet to see the software update become available. Thanks for the view!
