Ford Accessory Winch Kit now available for 2021 Bronco

They don't mention the camera that is part of the high package. Maybe the extra $ includes camera and/or winch controller relocate?

Why is the Black Diamond on the nix? I want this, but will have to be a 2025 Christmas present to myself.

Uh, at release the winch option was originally $2500. Crazy, I thought that was too much then.

Trying to cover for lost revenue with their roof mess up it seems. I don’t think I’ll need a winch but if I find myself wanting one I’ll definitely be looking elsewhere.

SMH. $3,500?! A Warn 10,000 lb winch can be had for $750 + tax. $65 for the hook. You can buy a lot of of cable and fabrication for $2,700ish

After all the challenges Ford has had with the vehicle release, I'd think they would go a little easier on accessories, at least for a while.

Looks good, but like all the other aftermarket it covers the ACC which is why it can't be used with lux. Still seems the original that blocked the camera but just move control module under the hood would have worked.

Also covers the front plate for Fords own front plate mounting solution. Talk about half ass planning and engineering.

Nuts on the 1000 dollar price increase. Way to much, especially seeing you cant use it with LUX package. I was thinking the extra was cause they integrated the camera and sensors, but they did not.

I'm on it boys.

Just emailed ShrockWorks, as they already made "these" for the ranger.

I'll loop back with results.

I read somewhere that the winch is not compatible with the standard lights and that is why it can not be mounted to Base or Black Diamond. I have no idea why you must have the signature lights to be able to mount this.

 

[BroncoKong Jr.]

Wasn't this going to be $2500? $3500 is insane.

 

[grayshadow]

WTH. That’s a hard pass

Ford is handing out hundreds of thousands of points to Bronco customers for these accessories, so of course the price went up.

This is exactly why I’ve nearly spent all of my points already on accessories, before the rules/points/value/price changes that are inevitable when everyone floods that system with Ford points in a couple months.

3500.00 is Suggested Retail Price.

my dealer will sell it to me at his cost (fishing buddies for 20 years).

Ima ordering it Tuesday morning. I am wondering if the Bestop 2 door soft top and this winch will arrive before the Bronco? Probably.

Compatibility - No Lux and requires Modular Bumper.

So why no Base and Black Diamond? It was suggested above that it may have to do with signature lighting. But there is no requirement for that to be optioned on the Big Bend which includes standard lighting. My supposition is that Ford is re-configuring trim options for MY'22.

Currently, the modular bumper can be optioned on all trims for MY'21. But for MY'22, we know the capable bumper will be an option and standard on the Black Diamond. Ford may be eliminating the modular bumper as an option for the Base and Black Diamond for MY'22. Thus, the restricted trim compatibility.

The increased cost might have the modular bumper "baked" into the cost for MY'22 with a discount for the Badlands as the modular bumper is standard.

 

[Ryuk]

Damn, that's too expensive. I wonder how much just the mounting bracket is on the Modular bumper, then buy your own winch and don't worry about integrated wiring for control. As rarely as a winch is used, we can use a normal winch controller and loop it back to the driver like we always do.

Heck, a lot of winches are wireless nowadays and fall back to wired.

$3500 is ridiculous, especially when that does not cover the installation.
