Fitment & Sensor Notes
Fits all trims except Bronco Raptor. Works with factory parking sensors and bezels, plugs included if your Bronco isn't already equipped. Front camera stays clear unless you add the optional bull bar, in which case we recommend pairing it with the ABBR-03 Front Camera Relocation Bracket. Does not retain factory fog lights.

Details
Will This Bumper Fit My Bronco?
The DV8 Offroad Tube Series Bronco front bumper, FBBR-08, fits 2021–2026 Ford Bronco two-door and four-door models, excluding Raptor. It replaces the factory front bumper and skid plate, with a full front skid supplied as part of the new assembly. Factory fog lights do not transfer to this bumper.
For a Raptor, choose the Raptor Tube Series bumper. DV8 currently lists this standard-Bronco version through 2026; confirm a 2027 application before ordering.
Who Is This Bumper Best For?
Choose this bumper if your Bronco build centers on front-end clearance, a tube-style appearance, and flexible trail lighting. The open tubular layout gives it a different look from the plate-style OE Plus bumpers, while the included skid covers the area underneath.
Its included light hoop can be installed or left off, giving you a meaningful choice in both appearance and lighting capacity. Owners prioritizing a built-in winch mount should compare the Spec Series winch bumper before deciding.
High Clearance with a Full Skid
The Tube Series combines steel tubing with 3.5mm and 5mm steel construction. Its high-clearance shape is designed to reduce the chance of the front bumper catching on technical trail obstacles. A micro-texture black powder coat and metallic gray accent panels finish the assembly.
The supplied front skid replaces your Bronco's original plate. Solid steel recovery points provide front recovery attachment locations. These features are part of the bumper design; choose recovery equipment suited to those attachment points and the recovery you are performing.
Which Lights Fit This Bumper?
The bumper has separate center and wing mounting positions. That lets you select a main forward light arrangement while adding pods farther out on the bumper.
- Center: One 20-inch dual-row light bar or six 3-inch pods.
- Wings: One 3-inch pod on each side, two total.
- Included light hoop: One 20-inch single- or dual-row bar, four 7-inch round lights, or eight 3-inch pods.
Lights are separate purchases. Check mounting dimensions and harness requirements for your chosen lights before assembling the bumper.
Does the Light Hoop Block the Camera?
Installing the optional hoop obstructs your Bronco's front camera. Decide whether you want that extra lighting position before planning camera relocation. DV8 lists its ABBR-05 camera-relocation bracket for the FBBR-08 and FBFR-02 Tube Series bumpers with the push-bar option.
Factory parking sensors are retained, with plugs supplied for vehicles without sensors. Adaptive cruise control requires the separately sold ABBR-01 relocation bracket. These are separate requirements: retaining parking sensors does not remove the need to address ACC or the camera.
How Does This Bumper Install?
DV8 estimates about 4.5 hours for this bolt-on bumper installation. Arrange help for removing the factory bumper and positioning the steel replacement. Plan additional time for accessory wiring and any electronics relocation your Bronco needs.
Read the FBBR-08 installation guide first. Although the main mounting process requires no cutting, the guide notes that sensor-bezel tabs may need trimming. Test their fit carefully before final assembly.
What's Included?
The bumper assembly includes the full front skid, steel recovery points, bolt-on light hoop, mounting hardware, and sensor-hole plugs. The hoop is included; fitting it is optional. Auxiliary lights, wiring accessories, and the ACC and camera relocation brackets are separate purchases.
What's the Warranty?
DV8 provides a one-year limited manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship from the purchase date. Review the manufacturer's full terms for limitations and claim requirements, and retain your receipt.

Questions
My factory tow hooks are deleted with this install. Where do I hook recovery straps now?
The bumper has integrated recovery points on both sides rated for recovery loads. These replace the factory tow hooks as your primary attachment point.
Does swapping to a heavier steel bumper cause the front end to sag over time?
The Bronco's front suspension handles the bumper weight well in most builds. If you're also adding a full winch and a bull bar, check ride height after a few weeks and consider coilover spacers if the nose is sitting noticeably low.
If I use the winch for a self-recovery, do I need another vehicle or just an anchor point?
You always need an anchor. A tree, boulder, or ground anchor with a tree saver strap does the job. The winch provides the pulling force but needs something to pull against.
Does this bumper affect the factory hood clearance or latch operation?
No. Factory hood latch and clearance are not affected by this bumper installation.
Do I need to disconnect the battery before starting the install?
Yes. Disconnect the negative terminal before removing the factory bumper to prevent sensor errors and avoid shorts during the swap.
Can I add a light bar mount or bull bar to this bumper after the fact?
The Tube Series supports aftermarket light mounting accessories. Use the live chat to confirm specific bull bar compatibility with this model before ordering.
After install, does the front end sit level or does the bumper weight pull the nose down?
Most owners see no visible sag from a single bumper swap. The nose sits noticeably low only when stacking a winch plus multiple heavy accessories on top.
