Here's the trail cam location I believe

You are correct in assuming that the winch will block some of the downward front camera visibility. An unfortunate side effect of mounting the beefy Zeon winch. The safari bar pictured above was designed so that it will not block camera visibility (this is the reason it blocks out the logo a bit).

Warn does offer a relocation kit for the Zeon contol pack though, so those that really want to utilize their full camera view could go down this path.

Nice good to know that is available!
I would probably prefer a hitch winch though, where you can put it on and take it off as needed.

I'm curious if the modular bumper would support such thing....

Being able to winch backwards can also be real handy!

Well that explains why the safari bar covers the Bronco across the grill. I found that to be strange that Ford would offer the bar and not have it designed to still display the Bronco name, but makes sense with the front facing camera.

You can see it in this photo.

I am hoping that Ford has thought about this in advance because it would be terrible to have to choose between the winch and the trail cam. When I went to the Ford Nationals, Ford Performance had a Ranger there set up with a hidden winch (similar to attached picture from the Raptor Forum). This would obviously take care of the camera issue, but then causes a problem with the forward sensor...

Sonic sensors on on the bumper itself isnt it? And most of the vision stuff right above rearview mirror? That would be awesome if it supports the hidden winch though.

For the forward senor for the cruise control ACC) it is normally is the center of the bumper and is not sonic. Not to go Engineer on you, but the center location provides for the best overall accuracy for ACC. This would be below any likely winch mount, so it would not interfere with a standard winch tray. If you put the winch in the bumper, most people move the ACC behind the grill (there are after-market kits for the Raptor, F Series, Ranger, etc.). Placing it behind the grill and left. Some users report that after this they had to pay for recalibration of the ACC (though some say they did not). It will cause some left tendencies of the sensor, which means that the ACC could perceive that a vehicle in the lane to the left is part of the spacing that is trying to maintain, not the vehicle in the lane directly in front of you. It is typically not behind the glass since this is not optimal for RF or LIDAR. Ford could fix this by putting the sensor high in the grill to begin with, but the pictures I have seen indicate a traditional placement. Ford is not using the more expensive LIDAR, but this has issues of its own, typically is not used by itself, and used in vehicles that are intended to go driverless or near driverless. The Bronco is not one of these per Ford. They could resolve it by having a mount that moves the trailcam on to the winch tray, but again, that has pluses and minuses. Technical geeks like me love these trade-offs. I would love to hear from Ford how they are handling this.
