New Front Bumper

[RRRANGERXLT]

Nice bumpers guys! I have a problem and would like help. All i'm trying to do is take the license plate bracket off my front bumper and when they put on on they must have stripped both bolt because they are not coming out. is there a write up of how to get the front bumper off? Ill have to cut them off and there is no room with it on. has anyone else had issues like this? sorry I don't mean to hijack your thread. thank you mike

I recently purchased rock sliders from Shockworks and noticed they now have what they call a winch mounting system that keeps the factory bumper but adds a front bash bar.

Hi Rory,

You hit the nail on the head. I landed folks in Ranger Vehicle Engineering that had the passion. I had a waiting list of folks that wanted to work for me.....Not bragging, but I had the passion and it like the Covid virus...infectious. We had fun, we worked hard and we believed in the product. I firmly believe when you have folks with passion...you will deliver a superior product. Having led Ranger was one of the most satisfying positions I had at Ford.... I hope the Ranger heritage continues. Based on my 2019 Ranger, I am pleased!

I'm loving my ARB Summit bumper. It has holes for the sensors and also a relocation bracket if you have the forward radar.

Where does the ACC sensor move to?

The area covered by the front license plate, or up into the grille?

The area where that license plate is. There is actually a flip up license plate bracket that is supposed to mount the plate over the winch opening but they forgot to pack it in my kit.
