Couldn't load pickup availability
The DV8 Offroad Adaptive Cruise Control Relocation Bracket moves the factory ACC sensor on equipped 2021–2026 Ford F-150 trucks to a grille-mounted position, preserving full adaptive cruise control function after an aftermarket front bumper is installed. The adjustable bracket is built from 3.5mm steel, finished in micro-texture black powder coat with black painted stainless hardware, and is compatible with most aftermarket front bumpers.
Keep Adaptive Cruise Control After a Bumper Swap
Replacing the factory front bumper on an ACC-equipped F-150 typically moves or blocks the radar sensor, disabling adaptive cruise control entirely. The DV8 Offroad relocation bracket repositions the sensor behind the new grille opening so the system continues to read the road ahead. Retaining factory driver-assist features matters for daily driving, highway comfort, and resale value. The relocation bracket makes the swap possible without sacrificing them.
Adjustable Fit Across Bumper Brands
Because aftermarket bumpers vary in depth and grille-opening geometry, the bracket is adjustable rather than fixed. That adjustability lets the sensor be fine-tuned to the correct position for the specific bumper installed, reducing the chance of false triggers or degraded detection range. The bracket is confirmed compatible with DV8's own FBFF1-09, FBFF1-10, and FBFF1-11 front bumpers, and is designed to work with most other aftermarket front bumpers as well.
Low-Profile Finish That Disappears Behind the Grille
The micro-texture black powder coat on the bracket body and the black painted stainless hardware are chosen so the assembly blends into the grille cavity and stays out of sight once mounted. The finish also adds a layer of corrosion resistance in a location that sees road spray and debris.

Who This Is For and Isn't
This bracket suits 2021–2026 Ford F-150 owners who have adaptive cruise control from the factory and are installing an aftermarket front bumper (including DV8's own FBFF1-09, FBFF1-10, and FBFF1-11 bumpers) and want to retain full ACC function without disabling the system.
This bracket does not fit F-150 King Ranch or Platinum trim models, or any F-150 equipped with a brush or nickel grille. It is also not applicable to F-150 trucks that did not come equipped with adaptive cruise control from the factory.
Common Questions
Why does swapping to an aftermarket bumper affect adaptive cruise control?
The factory F-150 front bumper is designed around the ACC radar sensor's field of view. Most aftermarket bumpers position the grille opening differently, blocking or misaligning the sensor. The DV8 Offroad ACC Relocation Bracket moves the sensor to a new mounting point behind the aftermarket grille so the radar can read the road without obstruction.
Will this bracket work with bumpers other than DV8's?
The DV8 Offroad ACC Relocation Bracket is adjustable and is designed to be compatible with most aftermarket front bumpers, not only DV8's own FBFF1-09, FBFF1-10, and FBFF1-11 models. Because bumper geometry varies, some testing and fine-tuning of the bracket position after installation may be necessary to confirm correct sensor alignment.
Does installation require drilling?
Minor drilling is required to mount the DV8 Offroad ACC Relocation Bracket. DV8 estimates approximately one hour of installation time when the front bumper is already removed, or approximately two hours when working with the bumper in place. An installation guide (part number ABFF-01) is available for download from the product page.
Which F-150 trims does this bracket not fit?
The DV8 Offroad ACC Relocation Bracket does not fit the F-150 King Ranch or Platinum trims, and is not compatible with F-150 models equipped with brush or nickel grilles. All other 2021–2026 Ford F-150 trims with factory adaptive cruise control are within the stated fitment range.
