Sorry to be that guy, but I was dead set on this front bumper until I received my Bronco Raptor golden ticket email. Do you guys have any thoughts on if this bumper will be compatible or not with the Raptor Broncos? Also, the same question applies to the soon to be released rear bumper.
You would need to select the LUX or High package in the options to have the sensor locations included with the order.I placed my order for the winch bumper yesterday but I just noticed there is no mention of parking sensors and airbag activation sensors on the website. Is the BAMF winch bumper compatible with these sensors?
Just so you are aware, there is a reset procedure that recalibrates the RCM when installing the Ford winch plate and winch. This is an airbags recalibration step through use of FDRS. This is most likely what is being referred to here.You would need to select the LUX or High package in the options to have the sensor locations included with the order.
As for the air bag question. Air bags use accelerometers not the actual impact of the crash to trigger. It's the rapid deceleration "the sudden stop" the triggers the air bag not the contact on the vehicle. The Bumper is a direct connection to the frame so the forces are transferred nearly instantly. I have yet to read a single post/article of an aftermarket bumper from any manufacture on any make or model not allowing air bags to function on a modern vehicle.
Bump@BAMF Hey Jerry, can you post some pictures of your winch solenoid relocation kit? It would be nice to see the work involved with putting the solenoid in the engine bay. Thanks!

Sorry I don't have much time for the forums/online messages, We are extreamly shorthanded in the shop so I'm currently on the production floor trying to get orders out the door faster.Bump
Do you have any updates on the installation photos and .pdf?Sorry I don't have much time for the forums/online messages, We are extreamly shorthanded in the shop so I'm currently on the production floor trying to get orders out the door faster.
I'm doing all of the installation instructions this weekend. Bumper, ACC relocate and mod bumper parking sensor removal (still need a plastic bumper to rip apart for those instructions). I'm installing A Warn Evo 12k Winch Drafting installation instructions/getting pictures of all angles with the 1" forward solenoid bracket on top of the winch. As well as the full relocate to under the hood. I've been waiting on wire to make the longer leads for the kits and extreamly short on time lately pretty much why it's happening on the weekend. And we just shipped a ton of LUX equipped bronco bumpers that need instructions asap!
I should have .pdf install instructions with pictures for all but the sensor removal of the plastic bumper next week.
Do you have any updates on the installation photos and .pdf?
They are just about complete. We still have to finish the mod bumper parking sensor instructions and they will be up on the site.
