No pics, sorry. Ratchet straps are my go to, but this panel is light enough that cam straps would be fine as well. I'm probably going to buy new ones that are black so the blend in more. I currently use orange straps.

I'm sure I'm not the only one of us who has wanted to remove the middle panel of my hard top when suddenly finding yourself in some beautiful weather while out and about (especially here in the PNW), but there is no way to store it other than putting the rear seats down. I did a little messing...

If you go with the Trailrax full rack you could run the wire along the passenger side rail and down through the passenger side A pillar. There is a notch in the seal above the windshield near the A pillar. You could run the wire down through there, down the A pillar behind the trim, to the back...

Sorry for my typo even though you got what I was saying (instead OF slamming...lol). I believe the best case scenario and some manufacturer recommendations is about 6 feet of slack to start. Check out this video with Factor55 for great information on recovery using a kinetic rope and soft...

Did you have you rope folded in half? Use the full length of rope to get the most stretch and mechanical advantage of the "rubber band" effect. I'd also ease into it a little more instead or slamming it. Also as others have said, hook up to your rear to pull. Pulling backwards is harder on your...

Cool, thanks for the info!

How did your RC High Winch mount hold up to all the winching? Do you have frame horn reinforcements? Just curious...glad you were able to make it out safely!

Interesting to see how far down around the bend in the frame horn that bottom brace goes. I’m guessing the tab piece that mounts on the back of the bumper slides into that bottom brace piece securing it all together? I wonder if more of the stress on bending frame horns under heavy load is lower...

Lots of comments. Lots of opinions. My opinion is the "recovering" vehicle was hitting way too hard and you were buried too deep. A gentle bump backwards probably would have gotten you back up on the trail rather than plowing through 3 feet of snow. Glad you're ok.

Hahah oh I gotcha. Glad I could help!

No this was from early January. Drove down from the Seattle area and did a lot of Southern Utah exploring with the wife and kid over the winter. It's insanely beautiful there. Were you stuck on the trail?

On top of a waterfall? Toqerville Falls.

I didn't know they dropped the price. 2,600 is much more palatable but still a little steep for what you can do aftermarket. Ford kind of shot themselves in the foot but losing the techy goodies like ACC and the front camera with their winch solution.

This thread has everything you'd want to know about the RC High Winch mount, control box relocation, and front facing camera ideas. IMO the RC High Winch Mount is the best looking option of all the "bolt to the factory bumper" winch solutions out there. It plays well with the factory...

Been following and commenting on this thread for a long time and finally able to post my finished product. Over the month of December, I got my winch all mounted and control box relocated. I put the contactor into an amazon project box mounted on the fuse box. I decided to save the rubber...

‘21 badlands 2.7, Sas, Tow Package. Built on 12/7/21 and delivered on 12/23/21. Looks boxed and not rusty. Doesn’t look cracked.

Trailrax makes the best aftermarket roof rack for the bronco if you add the pax rax. The full length members are single piece and "L" shaped. The rack is built like a tank and still allows front panels to be removed. For ultimate weight bearing capability, get the JCR reinforcement brackets that...

Those of us in this forum early enough remember the full digital display was going to be included on a Lux package (or maybe it was badlands/wildtrak trims?). Anyway, the digital display in the Bronco Raptor is what I imagined I was going to get before "covid" and "chip shortages" ruined that...

Top of the bumper to the top of the winch plate is 7/8 inch.

I have mine installed with the Tricky frame horn reinforcements. I just got it done in the last week so I haven't winched myself out of anything yet. I'd be shocked if the frame horns bent with the Tricky reinforcements. They are built like a tank. LOD offroad and Addictive desert designs each...
