I also would love to hear from any members who have installed a Warn Elite on their Bronco. I have one on my Wrangler and love it...

From Warn's website:

The only one I’ve seen running it is Camburg Racing. It’s been at the top of my list - but, I haven’t ordered one yet hoping I’d either find something I like better or I damaged my OEM so much that it was necessary. Neither has come to fruition.

The price has significantly dropped too. Started around $1200. Now it’s about $800 shipped.

Just found this.



Unfortunately, some poor lighting. It doesn’t look any shorter (vertically) than stock - which is a downside. My biggest debate is that I’m pretty opposed to hanging my license plate off my spare. Many high clearance versions don’t allow for the plate - which would then be the lowest point.

DV8 has plate mount that sets it in front of the Ford logo…I’m into that.

I'm in the same boat as you. The DV8 plate relocate seems to be the best looking option out there, that doesn't put it on the spare or hanging way out in left field (practically outside of the body lines). If you watch the DV8 install video though, prepare yourself for a little project. Not as simple as it seems getting the wiring for the plate light.

@Dadsquatch - yikes. I was worried about that. I’ll check it out.

I like the Warn I think that's the one I maybe ordering.

Correction.....install instructions on their website, there is no video.

Some aftermarket bumpers dont have hi-lift jack points, this does. That was the main selling point for me.

Looks great, I'm going to be ordering it as well. Where did you buy it from? Cheapest I've found is $966 plus tax with free shipping.

I have never seen this thread until today!. I run Warn Elite front and Rear.

Do any of these (Warn, DV8, the others) have a branding delete for all/some of their bumpers?

I would tolerate “FORD” but only if it was small/tasteful…

Well, if you had to remove the branding, the Warn Elite badge is small and held on by what appears to be two rivets. So with some force, it could be popped off.

DV8 branding is part of the actual bumper, as with some of the other products, not sure on the the others.
