Reviews for Mountain Off-Road DPJL18DS Driver Side Dead Pedal for 18-21 Jeep Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT

They need to have their engineers actually install a few of these in a JL using common tools, then go back and make it easier to install given the location. The bolt holes don't line up to the jeep holes well, and unless their buyers are all contortionist dwarfs it is way too hard of install.

If I didn’t have a drill and a fairly decent drill press to reset the holes on both the mounting plate and on the mounting bracket itself (a part in the kit that’s sent) this item would’ve been returned and a rating would’ve been 0 stars. Bottom line, the welded mounting screws were 1/16th to 1/8th off the hole pattern on the car frame. What’s even more surprising is that these same welded screws didn’t match the main mounting bracket in the parts kit that was sent. Again, they were about 1/16 to 1/8 of an inch off. I had to drill both out to get everything to fit. Finally, didn’t follow the install instructions and don’t try to mount the pedal on anything other than the forward position. Match each part to the hole pattern first. RE drill one of the holes if the pattern doesn’t match. Then install the mounting bracket with the welded screws and use a piece of tape to keep it in place. Next assemble the main bracket and the pedal (forward position) and install the assembly. Good luck squeezing yourself and the tools you’ll need into the extremely tight space. I finally got everything installed on the 3rd attempt and I am 5’10” and skinny.

It was very difficult to install and to actually find the correct setting that would be comfortable for my leg. This caused extreme aggravation on my part since I had to remove and reinstall it on three separate occasions just to find the right setting. Each time it became more difficult to take off and reinstall. So I am not really sure what to think of this product. If I had to do this again, I wouldn’t.
Note: I am 6ft and the middle position is the best, which is also the hardest position to install. Good Luck!!!

Got the pedal in. Took awhile as it was on back order. Got it installed, only took an hour, same as everyone else. Took it right back out. There is SO much lateral movement from the brace it’s attached to twisting. I’ll be seeing about returning this. The actual quality of the item seems good, it’s just not practical. There’s nothing to prevent the twisting. If they can come up with away to stop this, I’d order another one.

As someone who loves the M.O.R.E. JK Dead Pedal, this JL version is pure garbage. First it is not bolt-on for 2024s, the panel you bolt this too in your driver's footwell does not have the holes predrilled anymore. and then the brake pedal interferes with lining up your drill properly. You have to be a contortionist to even mark the holes to drill and no way to swing a hammer to dimple the mark. Others have already commented on even trying to mount it. Returning immediately. Wholly disappointed M.O.R.E. would even offer this product, such a stark contrast from their JK dead pedal. Please do better.

Horrible design unless you have the hands of a 3 year old. You can’t install this if you are full size adult.

Worst product I have bought for my Jeep. Difficult to install. Did not come with the right size washer. Can’t figure out best foot position until after install. Required removing trim under location to gain access. If I could get it off the Jeep I would return it.

2021 Willys. When going to marry the pedal to the mouthing bracket, there is no way to prevent the bracket from falling out between the fender and the interior. other videos i saw show a hold in the jeep mount point to zip strip the mount bracket to the mount point, but by willys does not have that hold. So when you go to put the pedal to the bracket the bracket starts to push out of the mount point. Called it quits before something falls down into the deep and rattles forever. on to different style from a different manufacture.

I have it installed and it works well as a Dead Pedal. But the installation process and quality of pedal itself it horrendous. I had to bore the hole myself because it was not drilled correctly from the factory. I was originally going to return it, but learned that return shipping cost is not covered.
So I smoothed out the bumps that prevents the angled washer from fitting in properly.
Once I finally fixed the hardware that the factory did not manufacture properly, it was a difficult install because they expect you to have circus arms to hold the pedal in place and the back support bracket.
My solution is that you have to tie the back plate to the metal wall and then screw the pedal in. Before being fully tightened, untie the string then tighten.
Also, have a magnet handy in case the back plate bracket falls during your human origami attempts.

Worst product ever purchased from Quadratec! I tried all the advice offered here and still could not get the pins on the bracket lined up properly with the mounting holes on the pedal. Sending back immediately.
