You think more weight on the back would even out a winch and make the vehicle more stable?
I’ve got a 10,000 lb capacity winch on the front. There may be a bit less noticeable rake with the rack added but not much. If you’ve got more rake than you like I would suggest adding spacers above the springs in the front. Did that on my JK and wish I did it on my JL. Just thought the lighter bumper would help more.

Not a fan of roof racks but this one might sway me.. Mainly because of how low and aerodynamic it looks.. Don't really care about the RTT capability, I usually just sleep in the jeep or put my tent beside the jeep.. Im not a fan of adding weight and making the aerodynamics worse on a car that is a shoebox already... If you like it, who cares how much it cost..

Still overpriced. For that same price you can almost get the Maximus-3 pioneer kit or rhino rack backbone setup coming up next month. Those will actually hold a RTT
Neither one of those are low profile enough for my use. All are nice racks but each has its niche. At 1.5” total added height it’s hard to compare anything on the market with this rack regarding profile and clearance. That was my main focus when hunting but I get others have a different focus. As far as cost everything for a JL early days is overly expensive.

I just finished installing my Ace JL Halfback Bumper. Fit and finish are great and the install was pretty straight forward.
.
Well technically it was yesterday, but I got my Ace spare tire carrier installed to compliment my new bumper that installed Friday.

I noticed JC7 looks to have an issue, but there was no problems with mine. You can select from 4 different colors. Very fast delivery (as it should have considering shipping was expensive! lol). Very easy install...took maybe 20 minutes...and that was mostly trying to figure out the best route for the hose going from the can to the intake.

Nice! Did yours come with the OE style connector ends?

Removed Rubicon sticker, I think the Jeep emblem is next.
Could just black out the jeep and trail rated logos with some plastidip!? When I get some time I will be removing the MOAB sticker and blacking out a few other parts.

Can this tire carrier swing independently from the end gate by removing one bolt (or pin)?
