What did you do TO / WITH your Bronco today? 👨🏻‍🔧🧰🚿🛠

[66GT]

Some of this...

... some of that...

... a bit of this...

... and a little of that...

... a whole lot of this...

... and even more of that...

... and way too much of this... long weekend.

... and yeah, that's George, Washington... lol

Edit: Here are the stats for our 39 hour trip. (over half of that time actually driving).

Here's the crazy stat. We filled up at 11:00 am... started wheeling Naches at 11:30 am. Wheeled for 12 straight hours... and returned to set up camp at 11:30 pm.

I only burned a bit more than half a tank of gas (2.7/10A) in legit off-roading and rock climbing for 12 straight hours. I've been asked how many miles that was... no idea, but it was a pretty much constant movement between 5 and 35 mph.

How was the install on the tow hooks? i have a set on its way to me.

Pretty straight forward for the most part. When it comes time to take the existing tow hooks out, make sure to replace them one at a time. I took them both out and there was nothing to support the intercooler and I had to quickly put one back on. Plus, Get an impact wrench ready. Those bolts are tightened up really good!

Got my deck cutout for the rear of my 2 door. It fits perfectly. I'm just waiting on some marine grade waterproof carpeting to arrive to finish it.

Nice!

Do you (or anyone) know where to find the specific dimensions of the 4D?

I’ve seen the engineering diagrams for the 2D on here. But not the 4D

Found a few that might help. I used the second link to base my design off of. I built mine in 3 sections and 2 piano hinges so it folds like a Z into the cargo area. Also cut a couple 2x4s in a wedge shape to support the middle platform.

I took a much simpler approach to make sure mine fit snug. I used cardboard and laid it down in the back to get the curves right. Then just measured the length and width, traced it onto the plywood and it fits perfectly.

Good idea — thanks!

A Bronco, a dirt bike and a side-by-side! Nice.

Would you have any outlines or rough sketches of how you created your homemade rig for taking the top off?

Yes I’ll try to send something when I get a chance

Took the kids out for dinner. But first, tested out the lift. Then replaced the bolts with these GPCA tie down anchors.

First, I installed the JCR Pet Divider. I already had the rear window molle pannels so the install was super easy. After that, I added a Rotopax mount and Rotopax extension which allowed me to mount two 2gallon Rotopax water containers to the Pet Divider. Finally, I mounted a fire extinguisher to the Pet Divider.

Now to build a floor and add a Fridge slide.

Just enough room left for the chihuahua... that boys a drinker!

 

[DubC]

Installed the @Mabett red seat covers.

 

[Big Boss]

Brought it back to the dealer to have more testing done on the issues with the windows.

 

[TavisB]

Saddleman seat covers.

how you liking them?

The kids? Love them. And like them too most days. (dad jokes ftw!)

Oh do you mean the tie down anchors? So far they seem well worth the money. I wanted them to make it simple to get the roof on and off. Figured I could add the D rings later for a few bucks if I developed a need. They feel secure and even had my 6 year old help tighten. Very easy!
