Very nice integration. I was half expecting a whole replacement bumper with a sharper pitch for a greater approach angle, but this makes the mod much simpler. I would really like to see an installation video or at least an in depth viewing of where and how the components attached, as well as seeing the winch operate (especially if the controls are in the cabin. Are they?). Flat recovery hooks seems like an odd choice, but my experience is limited. The shape and gold color are too earing-looking for my taste but the color coordination is respectable. I'm wondering if the hooks would be better located an inch or two back from the face of the brush bar so they don't contact objects first. Very stoked to have this setup option now. Thanks for sharing.

[@roamingwithjosh]

There will be more videos coming on all of the products mentioned along with detailed info about each installation. Thanks for the comment!

[@Zombiecidal]

AT LAST! i've been wondering when this was going to be made, Canadian car should have come with this from factory lol, the cars looking awesome man nice work

[@roamingwithjosh]

Thank you!

[@HawkBaitFPV]

Came looking for a warn bumper but i think those CA-Tuned semi concealed bumpers look even better.

[@roamingwithjosh]

The hidden option is the best looking option on the market. Check out adventurerigshop.com for everything OBW related!

[@AdrianGonzalez-ks9kc]

Just ordered mine today! I’m excited to see what it has. First time test driving one now it’s mine ! Can’t wait for it to get here !!!

[@roamingwithjosh]

Right on! Congrats on the new ride!

[@trott3072]

Just installed my slimline 2 to go overlanding to marthas vineyard...this is exactly what the wilderness needs is a winch setup. Great videos thanks for introducing me to this company 😊

[@roamingwithjosh]

No worries!

[@josephmanuel9323]

I hope one day the Mitsubishi outlander sport will get a cool bumper like that one

[@tacticaltweet]

This looks sick! Makes the wilderness look that much more capable!

[@roamingwithjosh]

agreed!

[@bowenzhang8269]

Hey thanks for sharing! Saw you changed your tire, would you mind share more about the logic behind?

[@roamingwithjosh]

The vehicle in the video was not mine. Sorry!

[@Hublot1]

I have been so torn up waiting for this bumper. I considered even building my own. Glad a company stepped up to the plate.

[@roamingwithjosh]

Lol me too!

[@semperfidelis8011]

Wow! Wow! Wow! Bring that beast here in Canada Josh 👍🇺🇸🇨🇦👍

[@roamingwithjosh]

Would love to!

[@joshp1550]

I dont see a link for the fog light mounts? Also cannot find the mounts on the website either? Can you please provide a link or better description on where the mounts are? Thank you.

[@roamingwithjosh]

Fog light mounts are still in R&D. Was hoping they would be available by the time the video went live but they were not.

[@matthewfinch2836]

What tires are you rocking right now? And whats the max size you could do with the ironman suspension? As I heard you mention you could put slightly bigger tires on.

[@roamingwithjosh]

I have 245/65/17 you could go up to 245/70/17. I’m running the BFG ko2 at the moment.

😂😂 I love it!

[@rickarango774]

Just purchased bumper also light brackets … ridge lights seem very nice have you used them yet on bumper without prior lights you had already ? If so what you think plus is there a video showing ??? Thx can’t wait to install bumper 👍🏼

[@roamingwithjosh]

I have used them and honestly, they're enough for most situations. The only thing they don't do is light up the ditch area of the road and for that, I would recommend the rigid side shooters like I have. They're bulletproof and rigid they haven't failed me yet. Email [e-mail] and ask them if they could do a discount since you bought the bumper bar already and I'm sure they will help you out.

[@robertkarantz9051]

We like to track and the Wilderness is not fond of cornering. In your lift video you said the lift didn’t improve its capability but a little so I’m wondering if it helped cornering at all? TIA

[@roamingwithjosh]

It definitely made the steering tighter, but I can't say cornering has improved.

[@spazsolo]

Yes! Of course, it comes out right after I have to pay taxes.

[@roamingwithjosh]

Lolol it will be around, don’t worry!

[@JZero4137]

That design for the winch bumper looks slick and very discreet. Definitely putting that on the wish list for my OBW

[@roamingwithjosh]

Awesome! Thanks for the comment.

[@GigaDucky]

Just got my 23 Wilderness last week and I’m loving it so far. I’m super excited to modify it.

[@roamingwithjosh]

Right on!

[@roymontiel2577]

Hi. I was wondering if that brush guard has a place to mount a license plate?

[@roamingwithjosh]

It does not.

[@Timelrd_OBW]

I have been waiting for one of these. It looks sharp but I just bought a house! 😢 this will have to wait. And that air compressor! Love that!

[@roamingwithjosh]

LOL I totally get it! I'm going to DM you, I have a few ideas.

[@ivanulloasoto2754]

My Wilderness is in the shop right now but maaaaaan if I got this I'd go NUTS!! It looks so good!

[@roamingwithjosh]

Do itttttt!

[@EverythingGwenny]

Very nice! Just ordered our Outback Wilderness. I will be following for more great ideas like this. Thank you.

[@roamingwithjosh]

No problem.

[@CraigAndes1]

I want the hooks on the brush guard. hopefully soon?

[@roamingwithjosh]

Not sure on that

[@bigtoastybunz]

brush bar makes it look that much meaner, and that winch might make me take my OBW where it shouldn't be! Designs here are great

[@roamingwithjosh]

Thank you and I agree!

[@Burly1995]

Awesome set up, glad a lot of new options are surfacing for the Outback wilderness.

[@roamingwithjosh]

Thank you!

[@cndctrdjful]

Have been looking for a bumper that is stronger and can attatch shackles to for yanking out of the mud. Hopefully you guys have them soon. Great job so far

[@roamingwithjosh]

This will probably be the best you can get for that task as it pertains to the OBW. The two strongest points on the front of this vehicle will be those threaded holes attached to the bumper. Subaru doesn't do a good job of making these cars with the more serious off-road community in mind. Thanks for the comment!

[@davidhenning8092]

May I ask which fog light replacements you have used please? I want to replace the white stock ones with amber colored ones. Thanks

[@roamingwithjosh]

Those are still in r&d. Once they’ve made it through I’ll have more information.

hey there brother Nomad, was checking out this older video, and noticed the two front bolt in the gold color recovery tow buckles! i'm seeing that you'd installed them through the "tubes" of the CATuned brush bar... can you please let me know what product they are and where i can get them? thanks a lot bro!

I wouldn't recommend them! This isn't my car so I don't have that info.

Hey do you know if this vehicle is lifted? I would assume it is? Also I see he’s running the toyos, how did you like those compared to your k02s?

This isn't my vehicle, but it is lifted. I can't comment on the tires unfortunately.

Any info on if the compressor plate may be compatible with other brands? Maybe a recommendation for future models is to have a base plate with a variety of mounting slots. Love the clean look!

No confirmed fitment with other brands at this time. Definitely something to look into on our end. Thanks for the suggestion!
