How is it going guys, I have a 2022 bronco with the lux package. Did the arb summit bumper. Now my acc doesn’t work. Relocated the radar, and all. Still nothing. Has anyone ran into this?

Mine works fine..The obvious check is connection and proper locate of sensor. Other than that maybe sensor went bad

How much drop in the front suspension did you see when you installed the bumper and winch? What kind of winch are you running?
I am running the warm vr10000s. It’s awesome. I didn’t notice any drop. Been off-road multiple times with zero issues. Just installed rear arb as well. Good products from arb!!

How did you reroute the wires? I did mine per the instructions and the length just barely connected. I pulled in back apart and re ran the wires to get more slack. All good now. Also make sure that you have the ACC activated on your screen.

Any photos on how it interfaces with the factory steel skid plate?

2023 Badlands Sasquatch. I saw a 3/4” drop on mine. Running a Warn Zeon 10S and dual Baja Designs LP6 lights. I installed it with a buddy and it was fairly labor intensive. A lot of parts to put together on the bumper. Ran into a small issue with one of the recovery hook slots being too narrow or the red coating on the hook was too thick. Removed some of the paint and it worked. Very satisfied with the end result. I do some moderate rock crawling and the recovery hooks have gotten hung up on some approaches (nothing a can of red paint won’t fix). I’ll be lifting it with some adjustable Fox 2.5 PEs to meet my needs of both overlanding, moderate rock crawling and towing.

Have any of you that are using this bumper, used a ceramic coating or wax on it yet? Their recommendations are a little

confusing. Considering these are not satin painted, but have a polymer coating on them, I’m not certain how to approach that. Pic for attention

Yeah, I am an idiot! Right after I posted, I found one of the little wires on the connector pulled out of it, got it fixed everything’s working. Thanks
Does this bumper also affect the front camera?

It relocates it so technically yes, mine has worked fine for over 2 years.

Not only relocates it, but puts it down by 2 feet and over to the left, completely destroying the 360 camera meshing.

It's really weird because the placement STILL doesn't clear all the new bumper stick out points, so the license plate or winch will be seen in the camera anyway, so to me, they should have mounted the camera to just under the front bull bar, which would leave it just an inch or 2 from the original mounting point.

It would likely obscure the view with the new bumper, but the 360 would work for parking, and the offroad modes would still align. As they are, the tire marks no longer apply, and the 360 is like an acid trip

The placement ruins these features, and I think it was sloppy of ARB to call that good enough. I've seen better from budget brands
