Hi Tyler,

This is one of the best, cleanest winch installations I have seen on these Forums. Kudos!

Shrockworks, they’ll have it on their site really soon. They were just using my truck for final test fitment.

That's AWESOME. DOes in mess with the sensors on the front bumper?

There will be an option with sensor cutouts for those two center sensors.

Shrockworks winch mount pretty pricey

Don't all Rangers have the front parking sensors? Why is that an option?

By the time you add the sensor mounts at $50 and the ACC bracket at $272 (!) you're getting into the range of a complete winch ready front bumper, but of course that's more bulky in appearance than this.

While I do like the look and I know that Shrockworks is well-built stuff, the price to keep my ACC will keep me away from this one and point me back toward the ARB I've been considering.

I wonder if one of the ACC relocation kits from other vendors would work? Hmmmm....

My STX does not have front parking sensors. So no, not all Rangers have them. I don’t have ACC either.

I knew the ACC was an option, but I didn't realize that some trims didn't have the front parking sensors.

Thanks.

 

[HTX1811]

I don’t have rear sensors either. Just the back up camera. No auditable parking warning while in reverse.

Absolutely they will. I'm using the Fabfours relocation bracket since it's the cheapest I could find at $100. It just puts it behind the grill so there's zero chance of compatibility issues with any bumper; the sensor is 10" above the bumper so there can't be issues. If you're not familiar with my build I'm using the Warn Ascent bumper again with zero issues.

I have the @589FAB hidden winch mount similar to @RoadBoss.
Very happy with it. ?
(my goal was to keep the mostly stock Roush Ranger look)

The only thing I did different is that, I added @SVC Offroad light bar and I also re-located my ACC sensor using the stock bracket:

ETA: No issues with accessing winch clutch lever, ACC and parking sensors all works as it should.

ARB Summit bumper (with front parking sensors transferred into it) and Warn VR EVO-10S winch.

A few pics of the ADD front bumper.

Here you go. Shrockworks winch Mount:

With that mount and without the bar over the top, it looks like the ACC module would be just fine and not even need to be relocated?
