Default WK2 Rear bar and tyre carrier

Ok guys i know it's been a long time in the making and we've been a bit slow with this product.

But it's nearly ready now.

Here are some prototype shots for you.

The swing outs are universal and can take a tyre or a single jerry can mount or dual jerry can mounts. So in practice you can run 2 spares, or 1 spare an 1 jerrys, or 1 spare and 2 jerrys, or up to 4 jerry cans.

Pictured is a tyre and 2 jerrys.







Will only work with Mopar tow bar or no tow bar. If you have Haymen Reece you're out of luck.

Hoping to get this finished and painted by the end of the week if all goes well.

Integrated stop/tail/indicator lamps (LED) new LED reverse lights, high lift jacking points, and 2 tow points as standard

Can be ordered with no swing outs, 1 or 2.

Looks good, although I'm not in the market for one.
A question though.
What have you done about the numberplate relocation and illumination?

Dave

looking great!

How does it affect the reversing camera? Looks like you will still see the tow hitch?

Cheers

Definitely interested in picking one of these up! Will the reversing sensors still work with it? Or is this replacing the entire rear bumper and so no reversing sensors?

Any idea of price?

Reversing sensors will be relocated in the new steel bumper.
Should have pricing in the next week or 2

Looking great Dave, another variation could be If you didn't want the Jerry can holder have a HI-lift jack/ Maxtrac holder?
