Default Or-Fab and RotopaX can

I got rid of my rattle trap Rock Hard bumper and got this........









Watch you feet when you take off your tail light. Such a dumb ass move. new one coming tomorrow.

I am very happy with it, the rock hard did not work for me. I like the extra inch of lift after taking off the Rock Hard(180 lbs). The jeep handles better and conners way better. Or-fab is a solid unit but I can't use my lock for the tire because my AEV's rims have to small a hole in the center.

RotopaX is a real cool option for the Gerry cans, but pricey. I still need 2 more can and extenders. 160 bucks more, and what I got already coast $200 BUT it's got more cool factor.

nice setup! digging the rotos.

maybe one day I'll do the can carrier if I move out west

but you should be able to get the lock to work with your AEV wheels. If you have issues check with their reps on here. They're great.



Unless only the silver pintlers work

I will definitely have to pick up a set of these. how hard are they to mount? they don't seem like they are too complicated
