Looks really good. Do you have a side shot showing where the bumper meets the stock fender flare?

We will have our Display rack, or we might bring the under construction Real Hawk Project.

We've discussed it. But we are going to focus on some other things right now. The Crusader Sliders are a very modern and market only Slider option. The Classic Sliders, have out performed any other brand sliders, so it's hard to mess with something that has been so successful!

But you never know with us!

lets just say with the little issues i had (not JCR's fault) it was great customer service and they helped me out all they can to get a fix for the issue..



That looks great! Thanks for sharing!

Lol makes sense you wouldn't take Cherokee products to a wrangler event I guess. Look forward to see you all there

You guys are blowing me away with your design and innovation. I really hope I can afford to snag some of your stuff in the future.

Made some more progress on the Vanguard Rear and the Adventure Carrier. Still waiting on some hardware to show up, so we can get the swinging motion and latch nailed down.

Here's the full rack/50" LED Light bar rack prototype:


Also made some progress on our JCR Real Hawk project!

What do you guys have going on there with the custom flares, huh?

REALLY digging the look of the Vanguard rear bumper and carrier. I'm guessing that the ability to have the Rotopax on there mandated certain sizing and geometry, but it looks like it will block the reverse lights a good bit. Good thing you have light holes in the bumper because I think a few folks will definitely need some auxiliary reverse lights installed. Hell, even completely unobstructed, the stock reverse lights are barely adequate, so all the more reason to add some good ones!

Fantastic design as always from you guys!

Flares are from http://notchcustoms.com/.

If you mount a carrier off the top of the bumper, you have no option but to partially cover the lighting. If you don't, the hatch can't open! haha
