Wow, what a swamp fest! Those tall tires definitely pay off in that stuff. I'm real curious what you think of the RadFlo suspension?

Very happy with the Radflo's! Easy install, improved ride, no clunks or squeaks.

Put all the skid plates and winch to work this past weekend. Truck worked great and so far pretty happy with the Kenda's. Had to use the winch once. Couldn't get over a rock that ended up smashing my center cap, and got hung up trying to go around.

Just gotta love Drummond! Makes me miss DOA last year! Awesome to see the Ranger out there doing it! And that spot you had to winch, I totally remember that spot and that a very hard choice of extreme camber with a bolder if you go straight, or a very hard bail out to climb in that mud to the right! I had to use some skinny pedal to climb that in the Jeep I remember! So much fun there though!

Love it up there! We go multiple times a year.

Ya, you can see my smashed center cap from trying to go around the rock instead of over it. When I backed up to take the bypass it pushed into a new rut and was smashing the tail light into the bank, so I couldn't get back far enough to get into the groove. Good times.

Here you can see the control box that's been relocated under the hood with our provided bracket.

Awesome! We just shipped it out. Winch won't be far behind it.

Install is the same! Read over the instructions on our website and take your time! A second set of hands will be very helpful!

There are like 6 clips in the front of the radiator cover. I broke the passenger side ones off because I was unaware. Also the side mounts for the winch cradle will only go one way but you will figure it out. Install was really easy. Running wires was kind of a pain but still not bad. I just installed mine two weeks ago. Pulled a lady out of a ditch two nights ago during a downpour. Worked great and I love the fact it’s all hidden!

That Looks great!:like:
I have installed winch bumpers and winch before in my jeeps, ford, etc.
I’m anticipating ACC relocation, plus finding a place for my aux power box and aux horn that will def get in the way when I install the winch controller box at that same spot. lol
But, I wanted to keep the Roush Ranger/ oem look this time around, so I chose 589 fab hidden mount. ?

Haha yea it gets crowded quickly. I’m sure you won’t have any problem with the install. 589fab made everything very easy and make a super beefy and great looking part. I’m super happy that they offer this as it was perfect for me.
