Just got the TeraFlex kit, will let you know how it is. Wires are no big deal, I wouldn't be concerned.

 

Yeah I just don't want to snip it.. Lol I've made tons of wore harnesses for my old jeep but yeah

I did orfab and it was easy. Problem I face is I want an spod and it mounts in the same place.

 

Did u have to snip any wireS?

It's just 2 wires, wait until you have to drill, grind, etc to the Jeep . But seriously most relocation kits require/include wire extensions as they move it to the top of the engine bay. Look around for mods where people have flipped/mounted it to the lower side of existing bracket. Hell I tucked mine into the bumper for a few weeks until I ordered the relocation bracket.

 

Order the bracket but when you get the bumper do a quick install to see actual interference. I did the orfab bracket but in hindsight I think I could have just pivoted it on the existing bracket and made it work without having to cut

 

Cool thanks guys

I installed the Ace Engineering Stubby and was able to move the pump from mounting on top of the bracket to the bottom if the bracket and gain enough clearance that I did not have to fully relocate it.

 

Yeah I have a rugged ridge xhd bumper I'm going to try and install
