Love the Gulf livery!From Buck N Bronco Off-Road, Vegas rentals…
Awesome! What a great feeling. I wish my dad was still here. Happy you could do such a thing!Gave my dad his BD today. He was shocked to say the least.

I had a little panic moment when Granger couldn't find my wire after it was sent to the account they gave me, took them a couple of days and the error was strictly on their end.So our second-chance order we took over was delivered to the dealer this week. Dealer is in MO we're in NC, so we're doing the purchase remotely. We started the purchase process on Wednesday and it continued today. Maybe it finished today? I don't know, we've sent a wire and signed some paperwork, but the business manager has been less than communicative so no confirmation that they've gotten the wire. They are going to ship it to us. . . at some point.
Good luck. If not too late, ship the dealer an air tags have them put in glove box. You will never hit refresh so much but at least you where the bronco is locatedSo our second-chance order we took over was delivered to the dealer this week.

I'm certainly keeping my cool, considering I copied their account info exactly.I had a little panic moment when Granger couldn't find my wire after it was sent to the account they gave me, took them a couple of days and the error was strictly on their end.
Wow, that would have been a brilliant idea! Unfortunately, I don't have any airtags to send and with any luck this thing should ship tomorrow.Good luck.

How you could work on that for the better part of the day and then not take it around your neighbrhood at least once to stomp on it, even a little, just proves that you have more self-restraint than I do. Hoping it sounds great for you tomorrow!Spent the afternoon installing the Corsa exhaust. Was getting dark by the time I finished and needed some dinner so haven't even had a chance to drive it around yet. The install wasn't difficult but I couldn't have done it without the exhaust hanger pliers. Even so, one was a pain and I eventually decided to hit it with a heat gun to soften it and get the dang thing off. Once the old pipes were off, the Corsa was simple to put together, even working by myself.
I didn't realize until I was installing it that the Corsa moved the muffler further underneath, below the passenger seats and then dumps straight out of the back. All the clearance I would even need to have the big OEM muffler out of there. Sounded great at startup while I moved the Bronco back to the garage. Will get some more pics and hopefully a sound clip up tomorrow.
Sorry about your paint chips. Mabett's flaps work well but for the HE, you just have to get longer clips from a decent hardware store. The ones below on the right (brass-color) are what Mabett gives you and the ones on the left (darker) are ~$0.60 at your local decent hardware store. Mabett and IAG look essentially the same (to me) and are reasonably priced.If you are contemplating getting splash guards/mud flaps for the front, do it! I was waiting until someone came out with a front and back set that worked without modification with the square fenders. Big mistake, ordering front splash guards now.
Just washed the Bronco after about a month and I have about 20-30 rock chips on each side. Every black mark in my pictures are rock chips. I haven’t even done any major off-roading yet, just driving on normal central Texas dirt driveways.
Save yourself some headaches and scratched paint (albeit where it won't be seen). Get the right sized clips for your mud flaps. The HEs don't fit exactly like the regular Broncos. Buy some very inexpensive clips at a good hardware store. It is worth the extra couple of bucks for a whole set that works perfectly. You want the ones on the left. The ones on the right come in the Mabett kit. The extra 1/4" makes a difference.Just ordered the mud flaps from Maybett. Those of you that have your Broncos now what is the best accessory you have purchased for her?
