This guy's seemed to fit fine on his SAS with tow package. The powdercoat is different too. Maybe you just got an early version and they modified it later?

I just found this video of Lethal Performance installing that bracket, and I'm pretty sure it's on their custom spare tire carrier. That explains the unusual length of the camera in their product photos.
That is a bummer because this mount essentially won't work with a factory spare mount...
I know this is old, but I'm considering getting this bracket. I'm curious why your camera sticks out so much further. In Reaper's pictures, it looks like the mount was intended to stick out far enough for the license plate to cover the top half of the camera bracket. Your camera sticks out much...
I had an order with BAMF but they are relocating buildings and it's taking literally forever. I was forced to grab one quick from Amazon before Super Cel CO in Buena Vista, went with this no-name one because I didn't want the big RC letters, and I think the solid plate without decorative slots...
Thanks for posting this. I was wondering about this as well because I had a sun shade that help keep the top out of the back seat passenger's faces, but I wanted to take that off and was pretty annoyed when I was reminded about this problem.
I'll try your tip next time I flip it back.
It's not that part but the short arms that connect to it on the ends. They should have some plastic sleeves (1 on each side) that you just need to push forward/up most likely. I added some glue on the inside of mine so they won't move.
Yeah mine was chattering on the cross bar just behind the drivers head. There is a plastic rub stip that I had to move up so it is between where the next crossbar rests. You can feel where the bars lay together when the top is closed to see where you should slide the plastic piece.
Thanks! I got them from SearchFordParts.com

Just installed mine as well. I added a line of XPEL vinyl along the inner edge of the fender so you don't see any blue under the flares. I also swapped out the rear bumper end cap for the non-sasquatch so they don't stick out as far.
I'm impressed with how well these follow the body lines. The...
BAMF makes one that has formed flanges for extra rigidity than the flat plate style. https://www.bayareametalfab.com/2021-22-FORD-Bronco-Rear-tail-gate-reinforcement-_p_180.html
These look so good, the ONLY thing holding me back from buying them is fear for the amount of rocks and debris the wheels will kick up into the body. Has anyone done any small mud flaps with them yet?
I saw these at their SEMA booth, surprised its taken so long to get these into production. I personally would be fine with a plastic. I'd like to paint them to match the body.
My gas mileage improved over 1 MPG when I switched to the Bestop lol. I guess lower weight and slightly better pressure recovery with the fastback shape. Was getting 17ish before and now getting high 18s.
Looks good. It doesn't look like its compatible at all with my Bestop, so I'll probably be keeping my gearshade. I'd consider switching if you make a version that is compatible with the Bestop Trektop.
I haven't gone 4 wheeling since putting them on yet. I had some cheap temporary Plasticolor ones on before and they were longer but I'd still get snow build up on my rear fenders. I'm sure they will help but I do with they were a tad longer. I dont think the rockblokz are worth the price at all...
