Cursed with the capable bumper and 2.7 (no real hidden winch options), it's time to look into winch mount bumpers. Searched every winch/bumper thread to no avail. Anyone care to share their setup?

Yea I've seen that. It's definitely the cheapest quickest fix. Definitely an option. I do like the integrated look but $$$.

I’m going to build my own hidden winch skid. I’ve been a professional welder for 12 years and there isn’t much to it. Not many good options out there and none seem to ship to Canada. I really like the LOBO off road one. But it’s expensive and I cant even get it if I wanted

I have the Warn Elite front bumper with hoop and a Warn Zeon 10-S winch on my Wrangler and plan to use the same setup whenever I get my Bronco. IMHO the Warn Elite front setup for the Bronco looks awesome!

I know RC requires the modular bumper not sure about Lobo, worth a look if you haven't seen this one.

If they can pull it off

Thanks! Didn't know this was actually in the works. If they can pull this off I'm in. I'd like a hidden winch as I'm not gonna use it but a few times a year.

Thought there was a bumper thread out there specifically that breaks down all the available ones what they're capable of, and maybe even pictures.

The instructions are non-existent, but if you're looking for a bumper that only slightly interferes with the front camera, and tucks away the winch pretty well, I'd highly recommend BAMF overland.

you can see how tucked away the winch is....

Don't mean to hijack the thread...I have the BAMF but have yet to install. Are you able to install the winch after the bumper is installed or does it need to installed first?

Has to be installed first, but you're going to want it slid outwards as far as possible and leave it a little loose for final adjustments.

One person mentioned you can get to the winch if you're willing to take the whole front grill and everything apart.
