How to Tell if ARB Summit Bumper Will Fit with 2021 Ford Bronco Base Plate Kit
Published 11/25/2024
Question:
I have a 2021 Ford Bronco with an aftermarket ARB Summit front bumper. Are yall aware of any base plate that can be installed in conjunction with the ARB bumper that allows the Bronco to be flat towed? Looking for any suggestions or avenues to pursue as I very much like the bumper but would also like to be able to flat tow. Thanks in advance for any info you can provide.

Hey Monte,
The base plates that fit on your 2021 Ford Bronco install in place of the OEM tow hooks. I checked out the installation instructions for your Summit Bumper and I wasn't able to tell is that part of your frame is covered or not. Usually with aftermarket bumpers they won't fit with base plate kits, but I'm attaching a few photos from the installation instructions for the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM79RR so you can compare that with what's on your Bronco to see if it fits.
