2024 R Winch?

[austinwarmbier]

Has anyone done a winch install on a 2024 R? If so, what modifications (if any) were necessary? I haven't been able to find much out there in terms of winch compatibility/install for the 2024 R specifically.

Who needs a winch on an R? Just go faster. Lol

Haha good point, but what about when I need to pull out a stuck TRX? Joking aside, I drive out into the mountains quite a bit and having a winch is more of a security blanket to me than anything else. It's nice knowing that if I do get buried I can pull myself out.

Agree, a winch is not necessary until it is !

80% used for helping someone else out, 20% for self recovery I have one on my 2018, installing one soon on the 2023 R. Swarfworks makes the bumper kit, DBM makes the intercooler & Transmission cooler, I'll post pic's when completed

If Starbucks raises their curbs so high I need a winch, I am finding a new coffee shop.

I agree with the 80/20 rule. That would be great if you could post pics once completed! Are you doing the install yourself?

There was supposed to be a factory Warn winch option for the F150 tremor modular bumper which has the same center section as the raptor modular bumper. It has not showed up yet. Sound suprised.

I thought I remembered reading something along those lines (I can't seem to find where I read it though). Hopefully dealers will offer aftermarket installs once it does show up as an option on the Tremor/Raptor. I would much rather go that route than have to relocate the intercooler/trans cooler.
