I have not test fitted that particular winch personally and did not find dimensions of it to compare to the zeon. The skid is based off the zeon, however had a healthy amount of room on the front and sides. Just like the zeon, I would recommend relocating the solenoid pack, if it is to close to...
Good news!!! talked to my contact at the dealer, He said that even if I cut or modify the trans oil lines, the warranty would still be valid, ford would have to provide data that the modifications caused the failure. Obviously if the package kinked the lines etc it would void the warranty, but...
Thank you for the offer, as the packaging is becoming more set, the packaging will only be changing from the front of the lower crossmember forward and should not interferer with the sway bar or disconnect .
Yes, in all the brainstorming packages I have come up with, I seem to keep gravitating to the solution of mounting the heat exchanger above the winch mounted to the cross member.
I think there will many options available, now that it appears that the transmission is serviceable without going to...
Looking further into this, I am pursueing a avenue of replacing the heat exchanger overall, with a aftermarket one. By doing so, instead of attempting to modify existing heat exchanger and cutting crimp collars to reuse fittings etc, just a simpler replacement. It will drive the cost up in...
To the core support crossmember above the winch. The RC mount appears to go straight out from the lower A arm cross member, allowing more room between the winch and the core support cross member. With my winch skid at a angle, the winch is higher, ( and the zeon isnt the smallest winch) that...
UPDATE: Been really looking into making the winch skid work without disconeccting the heat exchanger from the transmission lines. However, there is not a comfortable package that does not create a concern for a line collapsing when up to temp. It looks like the package will need cutting of the...
When we designed it we matched the top height of the factory Modular steel bumper, so we have about the same gap as stock Broncos equipped with that bumper. I see from your profile pic that yours has the factory plastic bumper. Those appear to have less gap because they have a rubber valance or...
Hey guys there has been some discussions lately about the stresses winches and recovery points place on bumpers and the frame mounts, so we wanted to take a deep dive on how our own WNC bumpers fare in that discussion. You've seen what our assembled bumpers look like in the photos above, but we...

Check out his writeup and additional pics in THIS THREAD. And Corbin produced an awesome install video, CLICK HERE to check it out on his YouTube channel (don't forget to subscribe, he's been making some...
I will take this into consideration for the future. The Tire cut out area is achieving multiple benefits. The biggest upside to the contours of the mid section is creating strength. When the plate work become to large of a flat surface it will have a " oil can" effect and is not as rigid.
As @Weekends & Waypoints has stated as well, I do offer a HNT rear bumper, that follows the same concept as the front HNT modular design. Below I attached links to the forum as well as the link to the product on my website...
