Finally got my 35x11.5r17 installed. Went with the Wildpeak RT01. Seems like plenty of clearance with the Zone Offroad 1" level kit and big tire crash bars.

Finally scheduled to get installed this Saturday. Went with the Falken Wildpeak RT01 instead since they are in stock.

Not yet, they seem to be on backorder.

@Mayflower2010 I'm about to pull the trigger on 5 Wildpeak AT4W in 35x11.5r17 for my stock non-Sas Badlands. Do I need to purchase an extension or need to make any modifications to the spare tire carrier to fit these bigger tires? What did you do? Thanks!

Any issues mounting the spare in the larger size to the carrier?

Also, did you need to make any modifications to the spare tire carrier or brake light with the bigger 35s?

I'm looking at either 285/75 r17 tires or the 35s you installed. I've already replaced my crash bars with the following "big tire" crash bars. https://www.extremeterrain.com/readylift-bronco-high-clearance-anti-intrustion-beams-67-21200.html I'm pretty sure the 34" tires will work with these...

Did you have to remove the crash bars?

Were you able to retain the crash bars with this setup? Thanks

All done 😁

Yea, there's a bracket on front of the battery which seemed meant for a relay mount 😉

Just finished installing and wiring the relay. Aux 5 will be used to power up the winch. Just need ups to deliver the skid

@mcinfantry couple quick questions on your install. 1. Did you mount your solenoid on the center of the winch, or off to the side? Mine has the option to mount the solenoid off center towards the passenger side. 2. Did you run your ground wire to the battery, or just ground it to the Bronco...

If you are looking at the frame. Under the driver side front frame horn there is a metal plate that comes from under the frame and slightly overlaps the front. With the RC kit, this 1/4 inch overlap needs to be ground down so that it's flush with the front of the frame. There are a couple...

Thanks mcinfantry. I also have the 2.3l. Tomorrow is Sawzall day. Glad to hear I don't need to grind down the plate overlap.

As part on the install, I know the frame horns need to be sawed off. But does the plate overlap on the right side need to be ground down flush like on the RC kit? I don't see any mention on needing to grind it flat in the Lobo install guide. Thanks

@Boreal wouldn't the freespool issue occur on any bumper? Or is it unique to the capable bumper?

Was there any issues or modifications needed to install? RC lists this kit as not compatible with the capable bumper. Thanks

Does this count as my rsvp, or do I need to submit something?

I plan on attending the Sunday session.
