exactly right mate, as much as i like the protection of a full bar, the weight on the factory Raptor suspension is just too much with full bar work.

Cool! I was looking for a snorkel instal vid too. - That'd be great!

That's a sweet setup I'd like to get one for mine in USA I have a 2019 ranger XLT

Perfect 👌🏼

That was excellent. Well done. I'm looking for one for my 2020 Ford Ranger XLT 4x4 off road. Has the skid plate. I think you can even put a light bar in too. Now I have to see if you have one that will fit well for my Ford. Don't need a super heavy duty and would like to mod it to roll into the winch with no hook outside. Very good job presenting it. I'm from Oklahoma and I just subbed and will be going to your web site...I think you have one. Once again, well presented.

G’day mate, I don’t have a hidden winch mount for the XLT but you will be able to find one at Frontrunner outfitters. Here is the link. www.frontrunneroutfitters.com/en/au/ford-ranger-t6-winch-plate-wpfr001.html

Awesome!!

Great video man, I was looking at the winch wondering if that would mount on my Everest. I was scratching my head, bc it looks like you added more stuff to the Raptor.

Mate this cradle won't fit on the Everest, the Raptor has a totally different chassis, you can definitely get something similar but not from these guys.

Hi mate I really like keeping the factory front but also having the winch- are you working on one for the next gen 2023?

Great job mate. Little bit jealous though. We still can't leave our home outside a 5km radius due to an idiot running our state. Watching others adventures is as good as it gets at the moment.

Hopefully the restrictions loosen up soon mate. it’s a bit silly going to the bush/camping isn’t allowed 😳 ?? Keep a level head and just imagine the trip as soon as the gates are open 😎👍🏻🇦🇺

when are you getting more of these mounts and do you ship internationally? im in the US and would love to get one of these installed! 😃 cheers

Good info. Thanks.

Will this winch set up fit my USA 2019 Ranger Lariat with adaptive cruise control ? If so how do I order one. Thanks Chuck

Hi Damo, couldn't see who did the install. Where did you get it done and what did they charge you? Got a cradle arriving today and my fitter bailed on me.

Mate did you beef up the front suspension?

awesome work. Getting enough gear to do another 'walk-around' inside/out :) For the safety conscious out there, would you put something weighted on the cable to help transfer any excess energy back into the ground if something snaps? (obviously off the other guys ute :P )

Very nice. How much did the winch weigh and did it cause any sag at the front end?

@RoundTheFire

Cradle weighs in at 16KG and winch weighs in at 28KG...Zero sag in the front.

Were you connecting that to the tow ball?

How do you access the clutch lever for the winch? Im getting mine installed tomorrow and just now thinking about this? 😬

Straight through the front of the bumper. Big enough gap to reach your hand through 👍🏻

It's very easy when they have a Lifter :D

Hey, Do you think adding winch on ranger raptor may cause to change the weight balance. I thınk raptor's shocks are working best with anything added. Sorry about my english :) I want to do some things on my raptor (fridge, boxes, winch etc.) But ım afraid of change the weight balance of the car.

@RoundTheFire

3 жыл бұрын

A winch in this configuration won’t upset the balance. If you start to add too much steel bar work just for looks you will quickly notice the change. This can be fixed by changing the springs on your suspension but that’s the last thing I really want to do after all you paid good money for the fox suspension in the first place 👍🏻
