Working toward getting the Jeep ready for toad duty. So far I have the Maximus 3 tow loops installed as well as the Cooltech toad wire harness. Neither was especially challenging, just follow the instructions. I did watch the U-Tube video on the wire harness install a couple of times before I started, it was a big help. Next will be installing the Air Force One supplimental brake system.
As it is highly unlikely I'll ever install a winch I took advantage of the factory holes punched in the steel bumper for that purpose to mount the six pin wire harness connector and for mounting the air nipple for the brake line. Here you'll see photos from both the front and back side of the bumper. As you can see, I haven't attached the airline on the backside yet. The break away switch will be mounted using one of the skid plate mounting bolts, next to which I've drilled a hole to run the wires through.
Hopefully by the end of the weekend I'll have the rig fully set up to be towed, maybe I'll get the CB installation done too (I've had the parts for all of this for weeks but either other plans or bad weather keep interfering. All this has to be done outdoors.)
