Did you add any kind of strengthening to the frame horns to keep them from bending while winching? I guess it's fairly common. I used the ones from Tricky Dick. It was extra work, but I feel a lot better knowing they are installed.
Note that if you have the CAPABLE bumper that the electrical portion is incorrect from this video where it shows you need to pull the wiring harness out and cut back the loom to get some slack out enough to extend to the new mounting locations. We had to cut and splice into the three-wire parking/proximity sensor wiring (3-wire) to extend it about 9-inches to get comfortably to the winch plate mounting locations.
Any thoughts on developing a hitch receiver that mounts in a similar way and looks just as good? There's definitely a hole in the market for those that want to use cradle style removable winches and other things to plug in like hammock stands, cooler baskets, and rod holders.
@@JcrOffroad So if I bought my winch plate a year ago, is there any difference in this one? If I move my ACC back to the orginal location, it will work? Thanks.
@@wheelerk2012 we didn't make any changes to the winch plate. We just did some testing once we acquired a Bronco with an ACC sensor and found it worked without displaying any errors.
@@wheelerk2012 I didn't have any issues with the ACC working in the stock location with my JCR Off Road Winch plate. (I have since upgraded to their Full front bumper)
@@JcrOffroad awesome, just got your rear top left and right molly panels with the 2 shelf's. Build quality is 10000%, will be going for the full skid plate system and winch mount ✌️🙏

Thanks for the updated information!
Great video, I just have the regular cc sensor, no parking sensors, so my install looks way easier, am I correct?
Yes, easier.

Nothing in the works right now.
So what about the radar for the automatic headlight dimming and cruise control ?
It works with the ACC module in the bumper.

Question, what about the factory front cruise control radar, will it work or needw relocation? I have a 2022 Badlands and want to get this mount
Works without relocation.

Is smittybilt x20 gen3 fits in the mount?
Yes it does.
