Full LED construction is used across all functions including running lights, brake lights, turn signals, and reverse on the 2018-2026 Wrangler JL.

Frequently Asked Questions
What years and trims of Jeep Wrangler JL does the RAXJ181425 fit?The RAXJ181425 fits 2018-2026 Jeep Wrangler JL models including Sport, Sport S, Sahara, Rubicon, Willys, High Altitude, and 4xe trims. It is designed for the JL body style only and will not fit the previous JK generation.
What is the visual difference between the RAXJ181425 red/smoked and the clear/clear version?The RAXJ181425 uses a red outer housing surround with a dark smoked lens that mutes the appearance of the LED elements when the lights are off. The result is a darker, more aggressive rear look compared to the clear-on-clear variant. When illuminated, the LED elements remain clearly visible through the smoked lens.
Is the RAXJ181425 installation plug-and-play on the JL Wrangler?Yes. The RAXJ181425 uses the factory wiring harness connectors on the 2018-2026 Wrangler JL. No wire cutting or modification is required. Remove the factory assemblies, connect the Raxiom units, and reinstall the hardware.
Will the RAXJ181425 cause hyper-flash on the turn signals?Some JL Wranglers may experience turn signal hyper-flash due to the lower electrical draw of the LED elements. If hyper-flash occurs, an LED-compatible load resistor resolves it without any permanent modifications to the vehicle.
Do the RAXJ181425 tail lights include the reverse light function?Yes. The RAXJ181425 is a complete tail light assembly that includes all rear functions: running lights, brake lights, turn signals, and reverse lights. All functions use LED elements integrated within the assembly.
Will these tail lights trigger a check engine light or fault code on the JL?Most 2018-2026 JL Wranglers accept LED tail light replacements without triggering fault codes. If an error code appears after installation, a CANbus adapter or load resistor typically resolves the issue.
Are the RAXJ181425 tail lights street legal on the JL Wrangler?Raxiom designs their lighting products to meet applicable standards for street use on the 2018-2026 Wrangler JL. Verify current DOT compliance documentation with Raxiom directly if certification is required for your application.
How does the smoked lens affect brightness compared to the factory tail lights?The smoked lens reduces the raw light output as seen from outside the vehicle, but the LED elements within the RAXJ181425 still activate faster than the factory halogen bulbs. Brake and turn signal functions remain clearly visible to following drivers through the smoked lens even in daylight conditions.
Installation Notes
- Open the tailgate and locate the two tail light retaining bolts on each side of the JL body.
- Remove the bolts and pull the factory tail light assembly outward from the body panel.
- Disconnect the factory wiring harness connector from the rear of each assembly.
- Connect the Raxiom RAXJ181425 wiring connector to the factory harness plug on both sides.
- Seat the new assembly into the body opening and reinstall all retaining bolts.
- Test all functions before driving: running lights, brake lights, turn signals, and reverse lights.
