A couple of additions: FabFours stubby bumper and Warn EVO 10s winch

[ChompSticks]

Does the bumper come with the fairlead bracket or you guys buying that separately?

Have any of you guys cut the wings off the oem skid plate to clean the lines up some under the bumper?

comes with winch plate bracket that can support a fair lead of your desire. I ended up getting the fab fours skid plate as well to clean it up. Only thing I wish I could remove is the crash bars. I may end up attaching a light to it instead haha

Checkout the JKS Max Clearance kit if you want to get rid of the crash bar mounts

I put the JKS Kit on mine with the Fab Fours Stubby, and The Fab Fours Skid Plate... The main reason was my tires were rubbing the rear of the front inner fender, which it fixed, but it really cleans up everything in the front too..

Looks great nice and clean. Did you need to pull the bumper back off to cut the brackets off or could you get to them with it installed?

That looks way better. I don't know if I want to remove everything to cut it out though. lol should have planned on it beforehand.

The Instructions and the video from JKS say you have to remove the bumper... But you don't.. You do have to remove the skid plate, Either factory or Fab Fours, I still had the factory, that I bent up at Uwharrie, and installed the Fab fours at the same time I did the JKS kit. If you have fog-lights on the factory harness, I'd unplug that and move the wire, and you do have to remove the wheel speed sensor wire and guide for wiring that runs under the driver side rocker. None of this was too bad, it took me about 3 hours start to finish doing the JKS kit and Skid plate at the same time, and I take a lot of smoke breaks

Cutting the front body/crashbar mount off is a bit difficult on the passenger side without the bumper off, cause you have to work left handed to get the sawzall in there... Lefties will have the problem cutting it off on the Driver's side. But other than that inconvenience, I didn't need to pull the Bumper, Winch, or Lights off...

Thanks for the tips. I ended up also ordering the jks max tire kit and fabfours skid. Installing the bumper today on my lunch break. Sucker is heavy I couldn’t get it on last night going to use couple work buddies to help me lift it. It’s not even on yet but I’m already thinking now i gotta get some perch collars and turn them down a little on the lathe to use as a leveling kit and stiffen up the front to help make up for 250lbs.

Can’t wait to see it on with the RTR grill!

Going to run with no skid for a week. My jks max tire kit comes Wed and skid on Friday. Only issue I had was the warn winch bolts were either too short or too long. I added 3 grade 8 1/2" washers and just used the long bolts. They must of revised the prerunner bar because I’ve got plenty of room. I slid the winch all the way to the rear when installing but I should of centered it because it’s about 1 mm or less from touching the grill. I used rigid radiance amber backlit pods they fit perfect and wired to two Aux switch’s.

Had to wait till dark I think it looks bad ass.

Dammmmm that looks mean’ okay I really want to order that grill now!
Mine looks like this with the overlays. But now you got me thinking of going all black now and removing my shackles

Those overlays do look good adds to darkness of the base grille. I’d store those shackles in the jack area no shackles make it look so clean. If you can get a rtr grille you’ll love it they look even better in person. Makes the bronco look so modern and sporty. Raptorish.

You’re right! And I have soft shackles too. I really want a factor55 hook too so it sits flush on the fairlead. Love your look though!

I want a factor 55 too but damn they are so expensive. I spent too much money this week already but I do plan to get the Warn sidewinder in a couple weeks.
