I have been lurking here for awhile learning as much as I can from everyone on various mods etc.

I thought I would create my first post to help anyone else that may doing the same mod after intalling an afer market swing-out rear bumper. I am sure that I will not be the only one faced with this problem on their JL.

I didn't find much on doing this mod when researching. After using google and replaceing my bumper, I found that you will need additional cabling and a mounting bracket to support the camera and 3rd brake light to support the additional space required for the swing-out.

This is what I bought to support (sorry I used Canadian amazon links but if you are in the USA you will have a much easier time than I did getting each part delivered to support the install:

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07CWFBQ48/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The installation was very simple once you have the parts.

Here is another link that I found to support a camera extension if needed.

I hope this helps.

This is what I bought, instead of using the regular brake light above the tire, installed the brake disk light behind the spare tire, I removed the regular brake light. The picture below is from the company that sells them.
