Winch Install!

Shoot no!! Do it you can do it! The only thing u can’t do is recalibrate the radar for the cruise module. They say you don’t have to but we have seen to many issues with body shop after they repair a car and they don’t! I would highly recommend that forsure! It’s a do it yourself deal outside of that!

I read the install instructions that came with the winch, didn't see anything about recal on cruise module? I wonder if my dealer would even know how

That's why I'm waiting for a winch to be available (after the fact) before I take my bumper off for powder coating. So I'll only have to have the radar recalibrated once... Can't wait for those winches to be a valid part number.
 
Got the last of the trimming taken care of on the plastic trim. There is a lot more trimming to be done then the instructions say. Just saying!!! Maybe for a fit that I’m happy with that is!! Anyways really turned out good I think. Looks real neat. Got a Factor55 Prolink coming so I don’t a big nasty hook hanging out on the front tow hooks.

Great pics and information!
Now the burning questions. Since you probably know these trucks better then most.
1. Anything special to the Tremor or will this work on regular Super Duties?
2. Will this fit on a 17-19?

Man I’m sure it would fit a 2020 I really doubt it will fit a 19 back, they actually changed a lot of small things on the 20! But once again that’s my opinion!! The warn paper work says 2020
 
All dealers know how, not all trucks have the adaptive cruise though. If it does I would highly recommend it. But like always that’s my opinion and we all have those! We don’t always agree though !!

Good info, thank you. I don't have the adaptive cruise control though

Does the black trim around the winch just pop on and off with no bolts?
 
Thanks for the contribution! My order should be going in this week so this is perfect timing!

Curious what brackets were removed, mostly because I’m planning on ordering with the winch, but fully anticipate I’ll eventually get a buckstop or similar aftermarket bumper... and somewhat worried about any brackets Missing from a standard super duty

Ive always protected my winches with a high amp capacity inline fuse. I’m curious does Ford provide/recommend any fuse protection on the wiring?

PS-install instructions available as a pdf anywhere?

thanks in advance. -Alex

I have the install instructions from mine, I can make a .pdf to send tomorrow
 
This is where my winch is being installed, I'll be in good hands. Mine is a 6.7 so like Fordseniormaster said, they will be expert on this.
Your truck be here this week ? If so I’ll get the winch installed ASAP while it’s all fresh! I’m curious to see how different the 6.7 install will be!
 
Here the parts that where left off during winch install! Air deflector for the center of bumper, the other 2 parts are for the cruise control module. I guess we will maybe get to do the 6.7 this week and I’ll be curious how different it will be. I know routing the cables up to the batteries will not be near as easy as mine was.

It's been in Memphis since last Thursday, tracking site said due at dealer yesterday. Going to call Jimmy today for a status.
 
Ordered with the truck from the factory. Ford will ship the kit to the dealer prior to the truck arriving.
