The approach angle will be reduced slightly as the bumper does extend out more than the mod bumper. The winch sits nice and low so it doesn't block the camera like the one from ford and a few other manufacturers. There are compromises in everything, this is what I went with and it is staying put!
Overall quality looks really good to me. Time will tell how it holds up. Tight would be an understatement! I have XL size glove hands and feeding the bolts into the bumper is TIGHT!
My main issue with the install was getting the three brass bolts to re-align in the holes that secure the bumper...

First question: should I paint the stainless black or leave it? Once it’s installed there is no going back unless I remove the entire thing. 🤔
I'm looking to install a winch and new DV8 bumper next week and just did my youtube training. Do I need to reprogram the computer with a winch protocol? The video referenced "FDRS"? I've got no idea what that is or how to get er dun? Do I have to take into the dealership for this or should I be...

When I spoke with RC they said after the first of the year for the Hidden Winch mount for Mod bumper. I'll follow for more info and pics. Great looking build so far!
Is there a way to change my default goat mode from normal to eco or slippery? Normal is OK but I’m getting better gas mileage in eco and I haven’t noticed much change in driver experience in normal versus eco. When I’m in the mountains it be nice to just have it set on slippery. Or I can just...
@brianpgreen That is what Adam told me. I'm not a member so not sure how it all works. I'm still trying to get a hall pass so I can make it. Fingers crossed.
I messaged Adam at Avants. He said there was room in the afternoon session to drive the course, and that I was more than welcome to come just hang out and chat. They are holding events typically the third week of every month. Seems like a good deal. I will try and make it this Saturday (AM) to...
