Does anyone know if you can install both the Rough Country nudge bar AND their tow hook brackets?

It might... Let me know if you try this and it works. I like Rough Country's tow hook brackets. Here is a closer pic. I think it would work, but I don't know that.

Looks kinda silly being so short
Oem one looks way better.

Funny. I think it looks dramatically better than OEM where it is placed. At least there’s something for everyone out there.

I think it's 1000x better then the OEM, didn't understand why the OEM covered the Bronco.

Love that bar! It looks a hell of a lot better than the stock one though I'm concerned with it blocking the sensor at the front of the car. (Think it's the variable cruse control sensor or something like that.)

I looked at a pic of the Bad Lands and it has 4 sensors in the standard bumper. I marked them in red. This nudge bar will definitely block those center 2 sensors. Just a heads up.

You're the man, good to know, Guess that means unfortunately this one is a no-go unless there's a way to move those sensors. Appreciate the share man, either way, it looks boss on your rig.

Thanks man. It was a good question and now everyone knows. Glad we could get it out there before some people bought one and it screwed with their sensors.

I think I like the base headlights better than the fancy ones.

Looks good! Better than the brush guard option with the HD bumper.

It looks good. Except this area. Just looks unfinished.

Looks pretty decent head on! I've thought about trying flush mount fogs on my mod bumper.

But, to me, it seems like a fair amount of approach angle was lost and the ability to use the front tow hooks has been hindered.

Rough Country busted out a nudge bar for the OEM standard Bronco front bumper. Pics on their website looked really good, so I dropped the cash and ordered it.

You can order it with Rough Country pod lights or a light bar, but I ordered my own pod lights. They are Nilights off of Amazon. Super cheap and I have had really good luck with them. I do open them up and seal them with silicone though. If you're willing to do a little extra work, Nilights last a long time. The fog lights I installed in the bumper are also Nilights.

I do have the auxiliary switches, so wiring is super simple. The switches already have a relay and fuse, so pick your switch and wire it up to the right color wire in the harness under the hood. Easy peasy.

I think it looks great! Install for the nudge bar says 2 hours to button it up, but it took maybe 1 hour. Installing and wiring up the lights took longer than installing the nudge bar. The whole set up cost me $300.

Thanks for sharing. It looks amazing!

Looks good. If I may ask where is Rough Country made? US?

 

[Big Jim]

I wouldnt do much nudging with that

The lights look really good, but nudge bars are to me. Different strokes for different folks I guess.
