Took three years to get the Bronco I wanted and it didn't make sense to join a forum for a vehicle I didn't have. I'll have to key in on vintage B6G humor!

Mine came off after clipping a tree on a trail. Although it has similar road rash, I was able to get the clips from Ford and reinstall.Pics posted

Thanks. Tracking on new parts. Appreciate it
An idea, you might then list your parts with road rash for sale on this site. Between the folks painting and/or wrapping their flairs these days, I’d think it likely you’ll find a buyer at the right price. Can help you offset the $600+ you’ll have into replacements.

If I recall correctly , I think I seen in the manual of my Badlands Squatch. It says do not take Sasquatch equipped vehicles through automautomatic car washes.. maybe that's why... that sucks man, hopefully they take care of you.

@vrtical had a good point about what Ford charges for those clips. Aftermarket is definitely the path. Out of curiosity, how much did they charge you for the parts?

Yeah, the clips cost more than I expected. There are 2 different clips. The clip that holds the fender to the body is part #W715694-S300 and was $6.50 per clip and the one that holds the fender to the black outer part still on his vehicle is part #W790217-S900 and was $2.75 per clip.
your backwards on your clips. Plus you now will have an extra set of 900s as you get the body clips with the flare.

I didn’t see the nice diagram from RIDE. It has the parts. Also, will be interested in how much @vrtical clips cost. Wish I had known there were aftermarket available because buying from dealer is costly. On the plus side, the clips did what they were made to do and that was break-away from the body. Mine was from clipping a tree on a trail that was a little too tight for the Braptor width. I do go through a brushless car wash frequently and have not had any problems there.

I noticed that after I posted. Thanks you for the correction so he gets the right stuff. Will be interesting to see how much less the clips you noted cost.
Hmmm. That’s higher than I’d have figured. Did you go thru or get a quote from Ruxer?
Ya, that’s nuts. I saw they were listed at that but thought no way a dealer wouldn’t discount them substantially. In your case it sucks that I’m wrong about that. Highway robbery.
@flip cued me onto this option as well:
“The HM3 from Ford is stupid expensive and sold individually ($3.80/ea). It's a 6.3mm push pin that can be bought in bulk from amazon for a fraction. TBH, unless it's a warranty job our body shop uses Wurth or Auveco (Ford's supplier) aftermarket.

I just bought some on Amazon to compare to OE for quality as well as my own stuff. These are used in a bunch of different applications. As others have said, Ford is freaking nuts charging what they do. Need to see how they are packaged and do an inquiry with DOW as there is an outside chance their pricing/packaging is incorrect.
