Off road rear light mounting options (under bumper) Power Wagon 2021

[dmcoe720]

HI all, been searching a bit, looking for rear under bumper mounts for lights. Can't see at night with trailer/hunting. Any suggestions on where to source mounts? Thanks

I mounted here

Do you have the 75A or the tow pkg? Has the super bright rear facing LEDs in the mirror..assume you've tried those...I love em

I have two side shooters under my bumper attached to my receiver with 2&3/4” muffler clamps. Works awesome

These brackets or something similar give you a little more flexibility than the muffler clamps (I've tried both). They can be mounted at more locations on the bumper. Only issue I've found is that one loosened up on me, I guess from vibration after 1k or more miles. A set screw backed out but I found a replacement at Ace Hardware. More expensive than clamps but relatively in expensive. After some thought, if and when I do replace them I may go with something with more quality, after all most of us are hanging very expensive lights off them. I've also seen some members cut their bumpers to flush mount lights, very cool but beyond my skill level to do well.

Not a Power Wagon, but I used 2.5" roll cage light mounts on the trailer hitch. Mounted rectangular style lights for a clean and low profile look.

May have to call to confirm fit. They light the up night. I'm running on a 2016. Warranty is pretty good too, one of lamps had water entry and they replaced it with no issue. Could get damaged or torn off depending on off road conditions though.

Thank you all. 75A edition. Gonna see if I'll mount to hitch. I'll report back. I figured this group would be the best to help me out.

If it's 75A did you try the led lights in the mirrors? I used mine over the weekend..pretty powerful for what they are

 

[Quigs1975]

I have the 75a edition however I’ve never noticed LED lights in the mirrors coming on when I back up. Am I missing this?

 

[Airmousam]

They work in either park or reverse...button is either top or bottom in the center of the headlight knob...not automatic and you'll see why when you check em out...bright as hell

You need to turn them on you will see a green icon on the dash when you push the button on the light knob

 

[dmcoe720]

Ditto, I am not sure about the lights in the mirrors? is there a setting to get these to activate?

 

[dmcoe720]

Found these: https://www.cjcoffroad.com/collecti...m-2500-3500-19-on-reverse-kit-s2-sports-w-c-1

Not sure what this would even mount to.

Just confirmed this will fit the Power Wagon. Did you wire into a control module or just a switch. trying to figure out if I should buy module now or wait until I have more lights. Next year will add lights to boat trailer for night time backing.

I guess I got spoiled with my 09. While the 21 Laramie may have a better camera, it sucks at night. Maybe it's because the reverse lights are in the middle instead of the bottom like my 09. I've been eyeballing these so they won't hang down so far.

Look above on how to turn em on...easy peasie

I guess I foolishly did not not order the aux switches when I ordered the truck and was going with an aftermarket solution, but instead went the OE aux switch route which came with fuse/relay block hanging off a harness. Wired the power lead into block and grounded to chassis. IIRC, the kit comes with a harness that has a switch, so wire it up, mount the switch in the cab, and good to go. I would also advise you if plan to add more lighting and other assy, don't power off the battery directly, but use an aux controller or a secondary fuse/relay block for power and a central ground to chassis. Note amp requirements and use appropriate gauge wire, relays, and fuses. Never cut/splice/tap into the factory harness for power. Asking for problems in the long run and "could" void warranty.

The rear work lights are from super bright leds. The question was asked by a forum member, and for some reason I an unable to send a PM back to him.
