I've had a few people buy a passenger side only because they wanted tow hooks and didn't want to loose their step. I can only do those when I have raw materials though. Currently I have a very limited supply of already brackets in stock. Due to releasing 4th gen rear tow hook brackets and several rock slider builds as well as custom jobs on the books right now, it may be a little while before we do another run of 5th gen brackets.I have the factory Mopar step.

Sorry for the delayed install. I got stuck overseas much longer than expected. Got the brackets done in gloss black powder to match the frame and hitch receiver. The hooks are powder coated in a dark candy red to match the Rebel interior and the aftermarket wheels.
Only complaint is on the driver's side a plastic wire holder has to be removed from the frame to make room for the bracket, but there is no new hole in the bracket to place it back on. Pic for proof:

Weird. I didn’t have that problem. I didn’t have to move any wire harness

The location where I'm holding it is approximately where it was originally located on the frame.

That’s weird I didn’t have anything at that location. Nor have anything in the way of installing.

Do you have air suspension or some other option that would require a wire harness to the rear? I haven't heard of this being a problem before. Adding holes to the design is super easy though.

No air suspension, but the connector and harness appears to go to the rear bumper sensors and tow harness.
I'll get more pictures today.

I also had this "issue", but it was easily fixed. I zip tied the harness to another nearby wire bundle.
Another wiring holder also had to be removed from my step (since I removed the step prior to installing these), if memory serves.

Monday is the last day for 4th gen preorders. We have two powder coated sets in stock for 5th gen and I believe four raw steel for 5th gen. If someone orders a 5th gen powder coated set after we sell the in stock inventory I can take a raw steel or two to powder coat and get it done as long as we have raw steel in stock. enjoy some tig welds on our brackets!!!!!
These are really cool. Definitely on the list for our Rebel!
