It seems every year the bar gets set higher for Jeep modifications. In the past 33" tires would be an upgrade, where today that's a factory option. With the advent of one ton axle swaps becoming more popular and 40"+ tires becoming the norm, we wanted to facilitate the one ton install as much as possible.

To set the scene, Bruce Hodder, lead CAD designer for Motobilt, had mentioned to his wife some time back that he only had one real regret when it comes to material things he's owned: he'd sold the first guitar he'd ever bought during a time in their lives when they were downsizing. So Shelly got to work trying to find the guitar. 

By now you've likely seen the Motobilt Tomahawk Frame Chop Bumper for Jeep JL/JK/JT Gladiator (hopefully, you've even ordered one). This is one sleek, sick-looking bumper with so many features it's tough to know where to begin.The Jeep Lab and Eddie Calero put together a video installing the Tomahawk on Eddie's JL. We liked it, so we're going to share it. Thanks to these cats for putting this video together. Check it out!

Why replace your diff cover with a Motobilt HD Diff cover? We do get asked this question on occasion. The factory diff covers are too thin for abuse on the trail. One of the common factory diff cover failures occurs when the edge gets peeled up from a rock sliding across the diff. For a bit more on why you'd want to change out your diff cover, check out the video by Trails Offroad where Josh installs and reviews our Motobilt diff covers.

At some point you might be ready to turn your Jeep into a head-turner. Slapping on some big, fat tires always does the trick! There's just something about seeing a good-looking Jeep JL on some massive tires. But you'll need a beefier spare tire carrier that adds strength and clearance for your spare. Check out this video from Exodus 4x4 where they review and install the Motobilt Spare Tire Carrier for Jeep JL.

Final part of the series! Check out the finished look of the Motobilt roll cage for Jeep JKU. A lot of work went into this process and in a hurry. The Motobilt team rolled their sleeves up and took care of business. You don't want to miss this!

We have built quite a few roll cages over the years for previous Motobilt projects & now the time has come to finalize our roll cage design for Jeep JKU and to ensure all of our welding fixtures are ready to go into production when the time comes. Bruce donated his personal vehicle to be the test mule. Well, he's just that kinda guy that Bruce. Canadians are after all polite, eh? 

So this week, a lot is covered in the video by Rob 'Bender' Park on why Motobilt designed this Jeep JL cage for Alex's build. The stock cage on the JL is not very strong, and likely wouldn't survive a rollover. You gotta check out the video!
