I like the idea of mounting the spare to the bumper like this. Does anybody make a bumper like this that also has provision for a removable gas can carrier? In other words, a bumper that you can attach a gas can carrier to, but take off the carrier when around town and without need to carry extra fuel. Here is an example of the concept I am talking about. This is what I had on the ‘74 shown in my avatar. https://dufftuff.com/product/tube-bumper-with-tire-carrier-1966-77-bronco/

Rear eats too much of the departure angle. Too fat of an ass for me.

I'm concerned that the front bumper blocks the intercooler same with the other brands. To them it seems like an after thought....

Came here to post the same thing. Why no vents underneath the winch plate to allow airflow to the intercooler? Also seems to be missing the sensors front and back. I do like the looks of it though, just needs more functionality.

Yes, a local fabricator here who builds aftermarket bumpers is developing a line of products for the Bronco. Their current Jeep rear bumper with integral tire carrier has an optional mounting plate for Jerry cans, high lift jacks, etc. and it should be adaptable to the Bronco carrier. When I get the green light I will post up pics and more info.

Looks like the front camera is unobstructed with that bumper winch combo! 👍🏽
I was thinking the same thing. Would need to take a closer look at it.

I wonder what the latch on the swingate looks like. Would be nice if there was a slide so you could open the swingate without opening the tire carrier first.
They should open together just by using the regular swing gate handle. That's how most modern Jeep bumper-mounted spares operate now.

It looks like those will be a good addition to the options available for our Bronco's. A couple of thoughts though:
1 - I do not see any sensor locations on their front or rear bumpers. I see the front camera is there, but do these bumpers allow for all of the sensors to be transferred over that come in a Bronco?
2 - I would like to see a direct side photo so that we can better see how much the front bumper sticks out from the body. It appears to be quite narrow, but want to ensure the approach/departure angles are good.

Why remove the trail sights and leave the big gap there? Is this a BS picture??

I'm curious why they removed the rear camera. Isn't that required by law now?

Rear looks good, especially with the spare.
Front appears to ignore the existence of every piece of tech on the Bronco's front end.
