Where is the additional bracing that bracket has been there from day one and Mopar still says you cannot tow from the bumpers mounting points.I know I'm jumping in on an old post that has *some* controversy, but...
If you are a newer Jeep owner (like me) looking to flat tow from a bumper (like me), and you did a search on this forum for flat towing and came across this older thread and were a bit freaked out (umm...like me), then keep reading. If that's not you, then please just keep on browsing. No need to re-start the arguments.
If that is you, I have an update for those with newer JL's. My '21 Rubicon came with the plastic bumpers, and after doing a good deal of research, I decided on an aluminum RockHard mid-width. I was fully prepared to order the LOD brackets, but after talking to the great folks at Rockhard, they said I didn't need them since Jeep has already added the additional bracing. Took my old bumper apart, and they were right. See the attached pic.
So did my 2018 JL that does not change Mopars position on bumper towing.The '21's already have the extra bracket from the factory.
Nope not at all.. guessing Not sure the even the base plate manufacturers would open themselves up for that nightmare. I have poison spider bumper and a little over 5k miles using blue ox tow bar. I have had zero issues and dont see any problems coming up.My question is if a LOD bumper fails what will LOD pay for or take care of. If a weld breaks and damages your RV will they pay for it. If your jeep breaks loose and hit another vehicle is LOD responsible.
