Winch bumper affects on collision warning and suspension ?

I am looking at installing a Warn semi hidden winch bumper on my new 2021 ORP which has forward collision safety system. The version with the brush guard will interfere with the radar up front. So I am thinking the non brush guard version.

Has anyone installed one of these and experienced any issues with the collision warning systems?

How much more can I expect the front end to drop due to extra weight of bumper and winch? I didn't do a lift because it would interfere with the forward collision calibration. But if it drops the front end, that would be just as bad.

Thanks for reading.

Stock front suspension will drop about 1 inch for every 580lbs of weight. If the winch and bumper combine to weigh 200lbs more than when you started, you should expect about 1/3" of drop. If they weight 100lbs, then 1/6" or so.

The system isn't that sensitive to the angle. It can't be or you could never put a trailer on with 400lbs of tongue weight for example. If you do a cali-lean style "level" kit, you can probably aim it so high that it doesn't work. But in normal use you'll have some variation based just on what you put in it or even how many people are riding in it.

It will have no effect on the TSS. You will experience suspension drop and more dip under braking because of the added weight though.
