So far it’s held up EXCEPT the tow hook on the drivers side has some rust.

[@AdventuresOfRogersAndHenderson]

Man, I love how informative your install videos are… I already have a mod bumper and watched this whole thing because something you say will probably help me out later!

[@EvilleTruck]

I appreciate that!. Thats high praise :)

[@jeremyb_86]

Jeremy really missed out on that bumper. What a silly goose.

[@andyramz1705]

Where’s the link for the bumber?

[@rednroll1]

China makes nice "looking" bumpers but that's typically where it begins and ends. Coming from having seen multiple low-cost China steel Wrangler bumpers, you can always tell the China bumpers after install. They'll be the ones covered in rust after 6 months to 1 year of install while the OEMs have zero rust after 5+ years. So be sure to show us a follow up vid of what it looks like after 1 year of use, especially if you live in a mid-west rust belt state.

That's where good old bumper spray comes into play mane 😑, quit hating mane...

[@notmanr]

I'm doing this same install now! Got mine via Amazon. Going with Ford red d-ring mounts. Not really sure what size that screw is that holds on the mounts. I've ordered 20 bronco bolts for the bumper. I think I need more but it's a start 😊

[@buckedbuilds]

Looks dang good! Good job yall!

[@jefferyquinn]

I am really late here. Great video! How is the bumper holding up? Can you please provide the link. I need the identical one with parking sensors.

[@EvilleTruck]

The bumper has held up great, there is a bit of surface rust on one of the tow hooks, the link is www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Front-Bumper-for-2021-2022-Ford_1600663000946.html?spm=a2700.galleryofferlist.0.0.7b332a2faxOxpf it took a really long time to get shipped though.

[@EvilleTruck]

Was just looking at the listing and looks like they have a couple of bad reviews now, so would use caution

[@NAOEVO]

so great install job😄

[@timreichman3734]

Interesting option. Now wonder if the hidden winch kits fit them. I have the capable bumper and want the hidden winch kit.

[@davenealy7254]

If you’re referring to the rough country hidden winch, they make two different mounts, one for capable and one for modular.

[@timreichman3734]

@davenealy7254 oh really been looking and guess my Google skills are slacking. Seen a guy "make it fit" a capable bumper.

[@callsign.iceman7913]

So I just mounted this bumper from eBay in place of a my Capable bumper. I had issues with the outer sensors not fitting into the holes properly and my driver side sensor was going nuts. I ended up disconnecting my front sensors but I am likely going to have to remove it and try to sort it out. Additionally I tried to mount a Mabbett Raptor style fog light kit and the wings/end caps don’t line up properly. So I have to remove them to mount it. I ordered some RTR tube wings in hopes that they will be compatible. It’s a good bumper minus the wings not working with my fog light kit.

[@bthorn32001]

Hey Bill. Great content. Have you noticed an oil temp increase with any of the bumper replacements you’ve done? I did a capable to modular swap and my oil/trans temps are about 5-10 degrees higher now. Any thoughts?

[@EvilleTruck]

Thanks, I have not noticed any changes like that no, but to be honest I'm not sure I have paid super close attention to notice it, I would most likely just have noticed if it was a significant increase or started getting to scary temps.

[@danielweatherford4778]

I currently have the standard bumper with factory fog lights on my Big Bend. I am upgrading to modular HD bumper and Rapter style fog lights. I know will need to cut the loops off the tow hooks, but can I use the factory wiring for the fog lights? I don't want to use an AUX switch if I don't have to. Thanks!

[@joshclark8370]

Do you know if accessories for the or modular bumper will Fit like the hoop brush guards and so on

[@EvilleTruck]

Yes all the accessories fit it is an exact replica as far as design goes

[@pedromontoya2825]

Would u share a link? Or how much it costs? I have a base model beside the bumper what else do i need? Thanks

[@MrPrimeTime2]

Looks awesome

[@mannybadillo3353]

Great video!

[@micahrichey5335]

I’ve been wondering why Ford doesn’t offer the modular bumper on their performance parts site.

[@EvilleTruck]

I’m sure they will eventually, they aren’t able to make them fast enough to put them on broncos though much less sell them separately

[@Tavjon]

they do now

[@anthonygallo3576]

You said you ordered it from China? Or you ordered it from the US but its made in china? I will say it does look great ,now u need thr brush guards. Are those factory rims? Great video.

[@anthonygallo3576]

Another thing is the pricepoint is good but incant see putting cheap Chinese metal on a 60K truck my concern would be saftey forst , cosmetics second.

[@Emgt302]

Curious to know if the mabett raptor style fog lights would fit

[@EvilleTruck]

All the measurements are same as OEM bumper so if it fits on that it will.

[@Starlynightlight]

How did the bumper hold up after time?

[@EvilleTruck]

Great, theres some surface rust on the tow hook but other than that its held up great.

[@brandonhoud42]

Any rust?

[@willb.9225]

This video completely sucks for one main reason you offered zero assistance in the bumper assembly for that reason I'm giving you'll a thumbs down
