Running a winch above the factory steel modular bumper on your 2021-2026 Bronco requires a mount built to handle real load, real terrain, and real hardware. Rough Country's High Winch Mount positions a winch with a standard 4.5" x 10" bolt pattern above the factory bumper line, clears the factory tow hooks with 1/4" thick spacers, and preserves adaptive cruise control function through included harness extensions and sensor mounting hardware. A light bar slot accommodates a 20-inch bar for those who run after dark.
Substantial steel construction throughout. The winch tray and kit mounting are fabricated from 1/4" mild steel, with a 7-gauge welded front plate adding rigidity where the winch load transfers. This is not a universal bracket adapted to fit; every dimension accounts for the factory steel modular bumper geometry so the mount sits flush and secure without improvised shimming.
Adaptive cruise control stays active. The kit includes harness extensions for the factory sensors and a dedicated plate for the sensor mounting hardware, so the Bronco's driver assistance systems continue operating normally after installation. Off-road capability does not have to mean stripping out convenience features.
Flexible configuration options. The mount accommodates winches rated at 9,500 lbs or larger. A light bar block-off grille is included for builds that skip the light option, keeping the front end clean either way. Available configured with or without a winch, with or without lights, and with a choice of winch model to suit the application.
