Great video

[@JohnnyIDive37]

aewsome camera work bud! loved your winch mod!

[@21SethG]

Thanks!!!

[@danendthoff6245]

Great video! Installing the exact same setup on my 2023 JTR.

[@Jeep79]

Great video thx for sharing

[@Hawkspecops]

Very good instructions solid video man!

[@21SethG]

Thank you for watching Louis, appreciate the support!!!

[@Sandbagsims]

Great vid. Are those the LED package fogs?

[@21SethG]

Thank you!!! Yes Sir, they are.

[@Sandbagsims]

@@21SethG thats what i thought. crazy thing is i called rugged ridge today and asked the same question. their response was the Arcus will not fit the rubicon LED fogs without modification. I guess they don't know their own product.

[@21SethG]

That’s WILD!!! And ASHAMED!!! One of the main reasons I selected this bumper…

[@wyoming179]

This is by far one of the best mod videos I have watched. Excellent job on your camera work and thorough vocal description of your installation. Very easy to understand, volume was great and no annoying background music to interfere with your narrative. Thank you for an outstanding teaching video.

[@21SethG]

Thank you so much Scott for the kind words and for your support of the channel!!! That’s super motivating for me!!! Also, good luck on the giveaway!!! 🍀

[@ashebarley77385]

That’s what I want perfect set up

[@nychang75]

JT: i would like to thank you for your video. I watched it several times and it helped me. I specifically want to thank you for your suggestion of popping the front grill off and rerouting the oem wiring harness behind the grill! That was great. When i got to the part in the process of reconnecting the wiring harness i became concerned on where to tuck it up anywhere near the front area, for fear of potentially damaging the harness while off roading and catching it on a rock or obstacle.... then i remembered your video. So in conclusion, thank you for for doing it. Cheers.

[@21SethG]

Cheers!!! Thank you so much for the nice comment and for supporting the channel!!!

[@elginwang1572]

It's really helpful! I just got the same bumper as you. The only thing is I am not going to install a winch. Do you think it's possible to not install the winch tray in the first place?

[@wippdriver1]

Bad ass!

[@leethompson7049]

Great video and great attention to detail. Subscribed!!

[@21SethG]

Thank you for the kind words Lee! Really appreciate the support of the channel!!!

[@HolmesProspecting]

Great video. Saved for future install. Appreciate all the work put in.

[@21SethG]

Thank you for the support!!! Glad to hear you found the video helpful!!!

[@kpower8723]

Noticed you didn't install the Overrider bar. I'm thinking i'll go ahead and install the brackets at the time of install, don't see any issue of just having them installed without the bar installed do you?

[@JakeNBake0021]

This is the bumper I'm saving to slap on my JT. The giant hooks remind me of a Halo Warthog

[@21SethG]

You won’t be disappointed!!!

[@luiferreira4253]

Nice work! What headlights are those?

[@21SethG]

Thank you!!! Those are the factory LEDs.

[@KevinMelfi-l2z]

What are the specs on the tubing to protect the winch power cables?

[@betweenthepines4000]

One or i guess two things that add to the OEM Rubicon bumper cost is that it comes with the OEM LED fog lights and harness and yes winch plate. Looks great!

[@21SethG]

Thank you!!!

[@betweenthepines4000]

Hows it holding up? Im considering this exact setup on my JT. 120lbs or so combo aint bad.

[@21SethG]

It’s been absolutely perfect!!!

[@Eelectronight]

Awesome video! Excellent lighting and descriptions of all the entire install. I am mounting my Warn evo 10s on my Gladiator. I like the suggestion of covering the wires with loom.

[@21SethG]

Thank you so much for the kind words!!! 🙏🏼 Really appreciate you watching and supporting the channel!!!

[@dennisjordan8300]

Whoa !! Amazing Video! What size tires and wheels ? Any offset? Great Looking Jeep!! Thanks

[@21SethG]

Thanks Dennis! I’m now running 37’s on the factory Rubicon wheels. I have a 1.75” spacer installed with the wheels. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!

[@Demonpixyb]

How's this bumper holding up? I heard it has a habit of rusting way too soon. The hooks at least.

[@polo81]

Very descriptive and detailed install!

[@21SethG]

Thanks for watching and supporting the channel Raul!!! 🙏🏼

[@JTRSpartacus]

Well done! I’ll be checking this out again to refresh me on bumper removal and OEM wiring routing when my Ace bumper comes in!

[@21SethG]

I'm glad you found it helpful and look forward to seeing how yours turns out!!!

[@ulyssesbernardo-rq2dq]

Hi helllo, is that bumper model fit on my Jeep jk model 2017? Thanks

[@correfe]

What did you Torque all the bolts to?

[@anthonyaguila-jr2mj]

what's the size of the wire loom? diameter wise??

[@threefishes9893]

This is very detailed. I just got the bumper and winch. Very helpful and good ideas. What size loom need for the cables?

[@BrandonPrentice]

Best bumper install video I've seen and just subscribed. Question I have though is the links you made had x1 for the JT, another x1 with a bull-bar for the JL (same price). What if I wanted the JT bumper WITH a bull-bar?

[@TBagr]

Didn’t realize they changed the company name to Warren from Warn. I guess words are hard to read when they only have 4 letters.

[@neebaum3188]

Great video. Thanks for the step by step. Can you provide a link and info on the fairlead isolator you got? Thanks.

[@21SethG]

No problem, and thank you for the support of my channel! If you haven't already, please subscribe. I have several new videos coming soon! In regard to the isolator, it's made by Daystar. My father in law actually had it and gave it to me, but there are tons of other great options out there. Factor 55 makes some cool ones!!! Hope that helps! www.daystarweb.com/product/winch-and-jack-isolator-handle-combo-black-daystar

[@matthewkoster5]

I have same bumper, but winch won’t come for a few months. How big of a pain will it be to install winch after installing arcus bumper? Great video btw.

[@21SethG]

It will be a little bit of a pain. However, me personally, there’s no way I could leave my brand new bumper off for a few months. 😂 It would definitely be with the extra effort to put the winch on when it comes in.

[@wranglernator]

awesome video!!!! This the exact bumper / winch combo I am looking to purchase. Do you have any idea if the skid plate on the Mojave will have any issues going back on ? Also, do you have any regrets at all with this mod?? Would you do anything differently? thank you for posting.

[@Tyler-bb5nb]

Looks like a Rubicon....what kind of tires you rocking?

[@21SethG]

Yes Sir, it is a Rubicon. I’m running Milestar Patagonia’s!

[@nitroxide17]

That's the bumper I wanted for my JL. I'm hoping to upgrade to a JT someday 🤤

[@jessicalowe6943]

Where can we get some of those shirts

[@JOker21941]

Does your JT have a lift ? Or stock ? Thank you

[@21SethG]

Hi Erik! Currently, and at the time of this video it did not have a lift, but it did have the Teraflex 1.5” leveling kit installed. Hope that helps!

[@JOker21941]

JT Mods Thank You! Looks great! I will be doing the 1.5 leveling kit aswell

[@stanleyfurash7929]

The screw count is unreal to remove two fog lights and a harness.

[@21SethG]

Hahaha!!! Agree 100%!!!

[@nickt1984]

Are you keeping your old bumper or selling it? Thanks for your hanger videos, im buying a kit right now, thanks for showing your hardware too

[@21SethG]

Awesome, you’ll love the kit!!! I guess I’m going to sell the bumper. It’s sitting in my garage right now. Haven’t really gotten that far 😂. You’re more than welcome on the hardware. Thank you so much for supporting the channel!!! 🙏🏼

[@nickt1984]

@@21SethG very cool. I just bought a Gobi tan Gladiator, went with the sport model with some upgrades but figured I'd want to do the bigger stuff a la cart. I've owned a few Jeeps in the past but never a owned a truck nor a wrangler and I've absolutely fallen in Love with it. Its come in extremely handy even in just the short week ive had it. How are you liking yours?

[@21SethG]

Nick T I absolutely LOVE mine as well!!! I’ve had a JKU before and really missed it. I feel right at home with my Gladiator!!!

[@kellyjsilver]

Great video! I began installing my Arcus and Smittybilt XRC Gen 3 today. No way in hell that winch will fit. So I took it back and exchanged for the same Warn you used. When I test fit it at the 4x4 shop (went back with just the winch plate installed) the wiring was pretty much smashed against the grille. You didn't really mention the fit and how the wiring ran out of the winch past the grille. Did you have any issues with the wiring being that tight?

[@barryhollis492]

Are still able to remove the front grill or is there interference with the winch/bumper? Great video!

[@21SethG]

Thank you Barry!!! You can’t remove the grill without interference. However, if you loosen the winch from the winch tray and someone gives you a hand, you can rock the winch forward enough to hold it there and someone else slide the grill out. So it is do able without removing the winch completely. Hope that helps!!!

[@anthonygiordano3991]

Nice Gladiator. You I’m considering buying one but I’m looking at the 2-door model (J6) or just a 2-door JL. What do you think about long term usage of this vehicle or Jeep in general? I love the way they look but I worry about all the negative reviews concerning Jeep or Fiat-Chrysler products. I would really value your opinion.
