I went with cloth in Phoenix too, it’s really the only option here if you want to keep the top down. I’ve had mine for two weeks with the top off and a Gearshade bimini and the cloth has been great. Had the doors off today.So that's where my 2-door HPR base wound up...
If Ford ever actually builds mine, I'm going to see if I can pick up some Black Diamond take off wheels.
Down here in Phoenix, those seat covers would be ridiculously hot. I ordered cloth for a reason. That orange/red trim does tie nicely together though.
Loved what you did on a frugal budget. Good job!For those on the lower side of the scale here are some good low dollar options on a base .
Wheels are Ranger takeoffs 200$ but also listed as ford performance wheels for bronco at 1200
295 70 18 (34.4) Mastercraft courser mud terrains 900$
Clamber side steps/ sliders 300$
Syn leather seat covers 80$
Ford mud flaps 50$
Window tint 400$
Spare Tire cover 30$
Yet to come 3 inch lift combine a 2inch rough country with 1 inch level...
I have a set of gladiator 37 13.50 17s on ranger takeoffs waiting for the lift total 500 into those with half tread 37s..
I found the 295 70 18s fit without removing any of the crash bars which is prob the largest tire to fit without removing crashbars.
Have not seen any posts on the clamber steps , they are heavy duty and have removable step for crawlers (not me but I enjoy watching others) I really love them and good full size step.

Updates to come...
15 %What tint %?
No exhaust sorry...not in the plans ...a nice quiet elk hunter for meLove that tire cover! It looks as if you did an exhaust also? What you got under there?
I was surprised fairly quiet but no highway speed yet ..under 50 very good...How's the tires sound on the roadways? That's a nice build.
The bible says Jesus did ride on a donkey...that kind of fits...maybe?...ford Donkey?..lolLove it! Except for that part about Jeebus on the back... LOL
Nice build and great budget option for folks on here.
