Dosen't that one block sensors for Lux ?
The ACC will be relocated to behind the grill, driver's side. If I find I need the camera, I'll relocate the Warn control box. Never had a camera before when I wheeled and did ok. Don't use the front camera now on my other 2 vehicles so that's a non-issue for me.

Here's the view from the camera. If needed, the control box can be relocated.

Not trying to hijack your thread JD Farmer,,,, sorry.

I looked at the Warn, Maxlider and Addictive Desert Design's bumpers and ended up going with ADD. Just prefer the look better. Excellent customer service too. I don't rock crawl in Kentucky, trails in the woods and a few mud holes thrown in, so this bumper works for me. We explore on our own, so wanted a winch for self rescue and just like ADD'S style the best.

This looks like the best option if you have a front camera. Without the grill guard and by moving the winch control box we should get the best front view possible. Also with 12k lbs capacity should be able to use a tow bar https://www.warn.com/elite-front-bumper-for-2021-ford-bronco-no-grille-guard-tube-107870
I agree it looks like a good option and I’ve emailed Warn directly to confirm a tow bar can be connected to the bumper for flat towing. If I get a response I’ll post an update on this thread.

Front skid plate required or does the Badlands skids cover that area?
I spoke with ADD about using an OEM skid plate with their bumper - with minor modifications, the OEM skid plate will work with the ADD bumper.

Warn did email me back and let me know that none of their bumpers are rated for towing.

No this one wont block any cameras or sensors, this is a Warn bumper not 4 wheel parts bumper, I called and talked to them before purchasing this , told them that I have the Lux package and they assured me that this would work.
That is not entirely incorrect. The bumper blocks the radar sensor. You will either have to disable ACC using the touch screen, or will have to buy a radar sensor relocation bracket (such as ADD). Also, Warn knows of no fog lights that will fit in their bumper.

Despite their disclaimer, they attempt to support the high package parking sensors, however.
