Apologies if this has been covered, but I didn't find anything searching for 'capable' or 'bumpe'.

Looking through Accessories when building a 2-door OBX, there's an option for a Capable Front Bumper. The description states "Ford Performance modular front bumper allows fitment of optional winch, safari bar, and off-road lights. Also allows better off-road performance with ability to remove bumper end caps".

It's a $995 option and adding it requires the removal of Heavy Duty Modular Bumper + Steel Bash Plate ($825). The photo for Capable has foglamps and appears to be different from both the standard OBX and Modular bumpers.

I cannot select both the Capable bumper and winch, despite the Capable's description specifically stating allows fitment of optional winch.

So what on earth is this Capable bumper? The description is half Modular but the picture is not of the Modular or standard bumper.

My assumption was they left off the word "winch" .....Winch Capable Bumper....but it has more capability than just a winch, so it becomes a "Capable Bumper".
????
NOw, why you can't select that bumper AND the winch??? NO idea. Glitch in the Matrix.

Yes also can mount lights, bars, winch and the end caps can be removed if needed while off roading for real.

Bronco is all about confusing naming. The capable bumper is capable, but so is the modular bumper. The modular top is modular, but so is the MIC. ?
