Vac pump removal 2013 jk

[Adventure IQ]

Is there some right of passage to get the pump off a 2013 so can one put on winch and bumper. Looked at a few youtube vids on 2012....but not same
Tried pulling strait up, side to side...even have kid next door who races drift cars look at it.... Can't figure the thing out!

You should be able to just lift it off. At least this is how mine was on my 2013. Scroll down to page 11 below.

I was able to just loosen mine up and just turn the pump to clear the new bumper. Also, I know TeraFlex make a pretty cheap relocation kit.

I've got a bracket I can send to someone for the ride. It's just sitting in a box in my garage.

TNT Customs make one too, It remounts the vacuum pump under the hood.

You'll want to plan your pump relocation. Most relocation brackets put it in the same place the SPod goes. Teraflex puts it adjacent to the power brake booster, leaving room for an SPod, but taking the space that many use for on board air.

I used the Teraflex bracket as my plans include installing the SPod.
