Review of the MORryde Side Fender Mount RotopaX
What's up, everybody, it's AJ with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna be checking out this fender-mounted, RotopaX bracket from MORryde, and it's gonna fit your Jeep Wrangler JK or JK Unlimiteds. So it goes right here. The bracket installs in some existing holes on your Jeep and holds it there nice and tight. I can shake the Jeep back and forth by the bracket, and your RotopaX is ready to go and use whenever you need it. Now there is two different versions of this.
There's one for the passenger side and the driver's side. The only difference is gonna be the driver's side one's not gonna have the cutout for the antenna. Otherwise, they install the exact same way and work the same way. Let's move the RotopaX out of the way, so we can get a better look at the bracket. Just gonna slide it off there, and now you can see the bracket itself.
There's a couple different mounting options we had. You can see the square, here, is what we're looking for. So there's one here and then there's one a little bit higher. So we went just a little bit higher. That way just us more clearance, got us away from the mirror over here, and just more room.
Everything fit in. It didn't touch the fender at all, but then, also, if you don't wanna use the RotopaX, you can uninstall this and get a jerrycan holder that installs these other mounting points. Looking at our passenger side bracket, specifically, it's got a cutout for the antenna, which is nice. That means you don't have to cut around it or remove the antenna, or, you know, it was just really easy to install, because you used all existing bolts. There was no drilling or anything like that.
The bracket itself, either one you get, is gonna be made out of a black powder-coat steel, so you know it's gonna hold up to all the elements and whatever you put it through. Something I want to point out, that I was definitely worried about, is the door opening with that pack on there. The doors opened fully. I didn't stop it. This is as far as it goes, and you can see there's no contact whatsoever, so it's not in the way. Overall, I think it's a great addition to your Jeep. I think it looks cool. You know, it's gonna be functional. It's on there really good. I can shake the Jeep back and forth, and I'm not worried about the bracket coming off or this coming off. The bracket has like a heaviness to it. So, when we we're installing it, I could actually feel it, and I felt like, yeah, it's gonna hold up. It's not just some flimsy piece of metal that I can bend. It's gonna hold on there. It's gonna be there whenever I need it to be. Now, how hard is it to install Luckily, it's just a few bolts. We didn't have to drill any extra holes, so I liked that part. It wasn't too bad. Now, it's gonna be the same on the passenger side as it is on the driver's side, so whatever side you install, it's gonna work the exact same way. Well, I think that does it. Thanks for hanging out, and I hope this helped..
