Modular Bumper Winch Mounts

[NoloBronco]

Any other ideas or products out there other than JCR, RC and Everglades type mount for a winch on the modular bumper?

I am not interested in running a winch full time.
I would like to see a quick mount that would allow me to install a winch, plug it in, and go.

Like a front hitch receiver? I haven’t seen one yet

A front hitch receiver would be nice. Probably tricky with the cooler and ACC but there are smarter people than me to figure it out. Or how about a mount that attaches to the two front tow points that already exist? I am sure every solution has pros and cons. I would like to see something simple but works. Maybe something cut to fit the contours of the front mount points so it would not flop around?

Guess what just released on RC's site!

I already ordered it, now I need to order a winch to go on it. I also ordered JCR's pre-runner bar which I think will go very nicely with this winch setup.

lol just what I was looking for, I feel like we will have very similar rigs.

What are you going to do with the camera? Does RC have a camera relocate kit?

No, I'll probably have to buy JCRs relocation kit unfortunately. Lot of money for a simple bracket.

Wondering if you put the controller under the hood of Texas Complete Bronco pre runner would work. Less interference with the front cam and doesn’t block the grill. Tighter fit for sure if there is enough space for the winch body.

Thanks for the link! Order placed

I don’t know metals and am curious: will the 1/4 mild steel hold up to the stress of winching a stuck broncos up an incline, or is this just for looks? I’m only skeptical because it’s so inexpensive vs. the JCR and when I Google mild steel it says it’s great for applications that won’t be under stress.

I've relocated warn boxes and Badlands boxes both, usually not a big deal whatsoever.

It's cheap enough that when it arrives and it looks subpar, I'll just take it to my metal guy for a template and have it made from better material. Especially the side brackets, the winch tray I'm not too worried about, yet lol.

Wow.....it looks like it doesn't block the ACC module. It will require a camera relocation, and it appears to block 2 parking sensors however....hmmmmm.....this seems like it has potential!

(and Harbor Freight keeps posting their Badlands 12000 winch for under $300....)

That’s how thick the ford performance winch plate is that is in my wife’s bronco. Granted they do have bracing welded underneath as well on the ford setup. What worries me more about this and the JCR setup is no added support for the frame rail ends. Ford’s setup as braces that go down each side and on the bottom of the frame rails to stiffen it.
