Winch Capable Front Bumper

[RoadBoss]

I didn't change the whole bumper, but I installed the 589 fab hidden winch mount in the factory bumper.

if you're just simply looking to install a winch I think this is a great option.

if you're looking for a style change as well, then this is not an option.

Damn, not compatible with adaptive cruise....

Warn ascent with Warn VR evo 12k. Let me point out that I also like the tucked look of ADD and the like, but that leaves you with little to no access to the clutch knob and also forces you to relocate the winch’s control box for the remote.

Just means you need to purchase an ACC relocation bracket.

Thats a good looking bumper... are u going to drill holes for the collision warning sensors?

There's no bracket that will work to relocate that. Where would you put it where it will still work without re-engineering the whole thing and calibrate it?

Great to know this would make it possible. That will make fabbing my bracket easier since I don't need to hassle with the ACC. Or just buy a hidden winch mount.

Westin Automotive and Superwinch have teamed up to build a winch bumper/bull bar. They should be releasing it soon. David at Westin would know more information if you called them. Based out in San Dimas, CA.

how hard was this install?

not as bad as I thought it would be. a little time consuming, but not really that difficult. Plan on a full day for install, though a bit of that time was simply rotating the winch for the clutch lever and connections to line up properly, and extending the power cables to reach the engine bay
