Got the TJM Rock Krawler Front Bumper on Friday night. I had to go out of town for the on Saturday so I wired on the the LED lights that comes with the bumper and relocation the vacuum pump today. Thanks Gobig for answering my questions.
The bumper went on without a problem. everything lines up great. The only thing I had to do that was not in the instructions was to jack up side of the vehicle to install the winch plate. This maybe do to the fact that I am not lifted.

The approach angle is greatly increase with the new bumper.



Love that the bumper has Hi-lift jacking points for recovery. I test lifted both side and the bumper does not flex.



For the vacuum pump, since I don't have a winch I just filled it now.



I am very happy with the bumper and love the way it looks.

Yes. The lights comes with all the wiring and their own switches. I did not use the switch front the lights. They are wired in to the fog lights. The rocker lights swtich I have mounted under the steering column. The wires come in through a hole in the firewall.

Did you just splice the OEM fog wires to the kit plugs? Do they work good without the control module that came with them? I just got this set up and am trying to figure out the lights.

Yes. I contacted gobig and did the same thing he did. combined both of the power wires and both of the grounds from the vehicle. I don't think the control module can be removed from the circuit.

I do have a short video of my install. Sorry nothing on of I wired the lights.
