New Ford Performance B-Bow & C-Bow Brace Kit

[Mad Max]

Hello guys…

How are you liking this kit, does the bronco drive better with it?

My Stock Bronco gets town of cowl shake on some bumps so wondering if this fixes it…

By cowl shake are you referring to the hood bouncing around at speed? There are those bumper bolts under the hood.... I used nuts as spacers until I got the hood to close right on them. Stopped the shake.

What are those pipes on flat bar attached to roof rails? Home made?

So i have a first edition without the nut serts are the c brace serts the only ones need to be installed for this to kit to work? From what i have read the b brace should fit all 2021 correct? Also i was going to use up what pass points i have so no out of pocket cost other than putting in the serts. My bronco makes all kinds of noise when it is super cold wondering if this helps with this.Thanks again

Lube your seals but mine gets noisy when it's cold too.. much less so after applying some seal grease. I'm thinking the C brace will help and we'll order one shortly

This is what i put on the seals but i mainly am asking how many nut serts i will need to put in only for the C- Brace or both braces

If your rear sloping roll bars don't have any threaded inserts, you will need to drill and add 3 per roll bar.

Thanks for the response and the b brace needs no modifications then from what i have read

I assume the B brace is good to go for all model years. I didn’t add the B brace.

So did you see any benefits from the Brace

Yes, the C brace on its own was immediate. As others have mentioned, the creaks in the rear are pretty much gone. Only creak I have now is the rear driver’s side trim panel that I probably ruined a tab on by not fully removing that trim to save time.

That is what i am hoping it will fix it is so much worse when it is super cold not so much when it is warm but it is so annoying and i ordered the kit Yesterday with some pass points i had so no out of pocket cost other than having to pick it up when it comes in and of course installing the serts Thanks again for your input.

My hood has never shaken, sounds like deer needs to body fit.

I know this has been talked about, but I can’t find anything with this search… has anyone adapted this to fit a two door? Either of them, B or C brace…

when you go to pick it up, ask them if you can open up the boxes and just take the braces, trim and hardware. The boxes are huge and come on a pallet. Double check all the hardware is there…it’s packed loosely in a small box with tape that barely adhere
