I'm just here for a good time...

The website is pretty tragic. Probably easiest to just order from your dealer. They’ll apply the points at checkout.

Well that's depressing. My nearest dealer is 30 minutes away.

Maybe the website has been fixed in the last couple months! Can’t hurt to try

If you buying from Ford Performance, there is a radio button asking if you want to pay for installation, then below that is a map, put in your zip, you will see a list of dealers to choose from just follow the prompts. I believe you can even have the parts delivered to the dealer.

I installed it myself, so I'm not 100% on the details, but it's pretty easy steps to follow, I'm sure after you do all that, you would have to call the service department to actually set up an appointment.

Well the install looked simple, but I've read lots of conflicting information.

What I've gathered is, on the '24s, the harness is already ran, you just gotta pull the panel off, plug in the controller, and plug in the connector at the back. The problem that I've read though, is the dealer has to program it. I see you have a 24' as well - is that the case?

If it’s a 24 I think they all have the washout interior.

No need for floor liners then.

I thought the same thing. Then first week of having the Bronco I loaded a fairly heft cardboard box into the cargo area. Sliding the box caused a small tear in the washout flooring. Still need to take that in to get it fixed since I have the interior protection. But let's just say the washout flooring isn't the most durable thing out there, so I would still recommend floor liner with it.

Yea, I think it's a pretty easy job, but I would never try to talk someone into doing something out of their comfort zone or if they would just rather pay to make it go away.
Yea, the wires are already there, and it's pretty much plug and play, other then telling the computer it's there.

But my point was that the website makes it easy to pick if you want to do it yourself or pay for installation and picking a dealer to do it.

called someone’s mother a hoor

I pronounce it that way and picked it up from a movie.
And now it's driving me crazy to remember the name of the movie.

Some "boss guy" is telling another dude to "Take yer filthy hoor with ya" or something, then the guy turns to begin fisticuffs like a true honorable gentleman would back then.

It's on the tip of my brain...GAH!

Yeah I understand. Nah the install is cake, I just didn't know how much the dealer would charge to hook up and program the vehicle to let it know it's there. If I have to pay for an hour of labor, I might as well just let them install the entire thing for a little more is my theory.

I’m thinking I picked it up from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia

Hopefully one day, but other mods are definitely in line first.

Pulley system installed in the garage this weekend. Top comes off today. Also bought all the things to make myself a door rack (minus the insulation). I think I'm going to go with pool noodles. I'm not sure what pipe insulation runs where y'all are at, but I was looking at $80 just in pipe insulation, and it's thinner than a pool noodle. Noodles are $0.94 and I think will be a better buffer.

Well, I've been lurking around this forum for a while - reading problems and so forth. I used this forum as a tool to decide if I even wanted a Bronco. I'm a longtime GM guy (still GM at heart), and was veryyy skeptical about buying a Bronco. Ultimately I think GM makes horrible marketing decisions, and fails to capitalize on a lot of markets that Ford is just killing it in - like a midsize offroad SUV for instance.


But enough about that. We took the advice of this forum, decided to go test drive one last week. Got it up to 85 on the freeway to see if we could handle the road noise (which is not nearly as bad as people make it out to be), then started our venture of finding exactly what we wanted - a white Wildtrack. I gave a couple of local dealers a shot at getting me in one before I found a dealer a couple of hours away willing to give me all sorts of incentives, and not sell me on some of the worthless things that they put on these Broncos from the factory (factory steps I feel are the biggest waste of $400), and give me a good price on my trade-in.

So we drove our 2019 Chevrolet Silverado Trail Boss - which we had only managed to put 40k miles on since owning because I personally was too scared to drive it beings we'd already had to flush the trans because GM put the wrong trans fluid in it from the factory, and the 8l90s are already prone to failing - to a dealer in central Arkansas and made the swap.

I felt like we got a pretty decent deal all in all, and 500 miles in, we love it. Had the top off Friday, enjoying the fresh air. My wife and son have thoroughly enjoyed it so far.

So with all this being said, what modifications do you guys recommend getting on early? I did install some Rough Country e-boards over the weekend, which I am thrilled with. I wish I'd read a little more on the lift support kits, maybe even on this forum. I went ahead and got one of those from RC while I was ordering, and I DO NOT recommend it whatsoever, especially after seeing the Ford Performance kits (which I didn't know existed until today). Very chinchy setup in my opinion, and kind of a PITA to put on considering how simple it should actually be.

Anyways... hello fellow Bronco owners!

welcome to the brotherhood

Just look and find ideas so many different looks and options. My first was weathertech mats and mud flaps to protect the paint wheels tires taillights side steps

The flaps look better to me if you stay just black and white on the whole truck I’m not in love with them but beats hearing rocks hit the side of it! Oh and I did get the grab handles for getting in and out definitely plus and the Oracle light bar
