Who did the lasering and bending? I am looking to get some other stuff done and the shops I have used in the past never come out looking that nice.

The prototypes are welded up and ready to test fit tomorrow. I'd love to have a first run to sell at the Stampede in 2 weeks but it's going to be tight.

What is the price point? I am looking to add the RC high mount or something of similar design. I am going to be at the stampede hopefully with.my Bronco if not I'll be in the Mustang

I have yet to crunch all the numbers but probably in the 200-250 range. Yes, it'll be the most expensive solution, but I also want it to be the best.

I have my RC High mount currently on a Capable bumper. Only difference seems to be the Capable does not need the washer shims in front vs the modular. I can't see any reason your solution would not work with the Capable bumper, thoughts?

It should work with all the OEM bumpers and a lot of aftermarket.

I guess this needs to be said, my wife will NOT be at the show so no explanation will be required if you have them there and ready.... just sayin.

So good news, my frame horns didn't move, although they sure tried. The unmodified LOD brackets were hanging on for dear life but the modified ones are straight as an arrow and showed no sign of bolt pull through.

I'm done with the RC mount and the mod bumper. I'm deleting the intercooler louvers and tucking the winch up in there and building a bumper around it. The Warn fits between the horns with 1/2" to spare. Non-ACC FTW.

When you say "unmodified" LOD brackets, did you have 1 with a gusset welded on and 1 just stock?


Thanks again for all these updates.

The inner set - that the RC mount ride on - are gusseted and dimple stand off spacers welded on. The outer plate with the single bolt are unmodified.
