I’m sure it’s been discussed. Can’t find it. I’m looking for a front bumper, with winch that doesn’t block the Intercooler or front camera.

Out of interest, what does that weigh in at?I finally got mine all done yesterday. a buddy had to fabricate brackets for my ambers in the bumper. I looked for awhile for a stout winch bumper that relocated all of the sensors and camera and this checked all the boxes. It’s the ARB Summit bumper.
Bumper alone is 100 lbs heavier than the mod factory bumper.Out of interest, what does that weigh in at?
Heh I just did this myself with the baja designs. I got some aluminum angle iron and attached it to the included light brackets. Was a pretty big job overall but I think worth it.I finally got mine all done yesterday. a buddy had to fabricate brackets for my ambers in the bumper.

This is probably right. 247lbs with winch is what I estimated...Bumper alone is 100 lbs heavier than the mod factory bumper.
Where did you get the license plate mount? This is much better than that swing cover that was included with the bumper.I finally got mine all done yesterday. a buddy had to fabricate brackets for my ambers in the bumper.

Yeah that one that came with it would totally wear/cut the winch line. Also it was barely hanging on by one bolt after my first outing. I just took my plate bracket from my modular bumper, flipped it upside down, and bolted it to the light bracket mount on the top of the bumper.Where did you get the license plate mount?

Pretty much any winch that isn't mounted like the Everglades winch, block what Ford says "Do not block".I’m sure it’s been discussed. Can’t find it. I’m looking for a front bumper, with winch that doesn’t block the Intercooler or front camera.
I was looking at that. Are you 2.7? And hey is that a soft top with a roof rack solution? I’ll be looking at that some day.I finally got mine all done yesterday. a buddy had to fabricate brackets for my ambers in the bumper.

2.7 but not soft top. I have the Gobi rack. They do have a soft too rack as wellI was looking at that. Are you 2.7? And hey is that a soft top with a roof rack solution? I’ll be looking at that some day.
I had my (tiny) heart set on the Rough Country hidden winch mount for my 22 MT sorta-Capable Bumper Badlands.Look at the Rough Country Hidden Winch solution. It mounts under the bumper. Easier on the 2.3 than the 2.7. There's a video online showing the 2.7 installation - req's moving and replumbing the Intercooler.
