I think this is a valid question. I never put my bolts back in my wrangler when i had it. good luck
Different style hinges. Nothing like the Jeep style. You’ll have to bolt them on every time.

If there is a draw of current, the ASS will be disabled. One of the workarounds to disable it (other than pushing the button each time) was described by @AzScorpion where he used a plug-in air freshener to disable the ASS function.

I wonder how many voice commands have to be given to place a Bluetooth call... in my Titan, it's two but I can cut them short by hitting the call button. In my wife's Pacifica, it takes several seconds because I have to listen to a dissertation. Anybody have experience with Ford sync in general and Sync 4 specifically?
Sync 3 works well in my explorer
Hit the button, makes a chime, say "call home" or a name in your contact list and it normally works...lol

How stable are they if I just never put the bolts back in?
Do you own a welder? Was Dukes of Hazard a TV show you want to emulate?

You could probably make something that would work, but it wouldn't be recommended by the factory.

Dumb Question (because it’s been answered before, but I can’t find it using the search bar):

How much extra weight does the Sasquatch Package add to a trim? I know it differs based on which trim. But let’s say how much would it add to a Base Bronco? And how much would it add to a Badlands?
I am going to guess that the sway bar disconnect on the Badlands adds about 200 lbs and the Sasquatch package adds about 100 lbs.

A base 2 Door 2.7 auto weight in at 4458
An OBX 2 Door 2.7 auto weighs in at 4557.9
A WT 2 Door 2.7 auto weighs in at 4749.1 - 191.2 more than the OBX (RL, FL and SAS) 248 less than FE
A BL 2 Door 2.7 auto weighs in at 4877.1 - 319 more than the OBX (RL, FL and SBD) 120 less than FE
A FE 2 Door 2.7 auto weighs in at 4997.0 - 439.1 more than the OBX (RL, FL, SBD, and SAS)

I am sure that this isn't quite exact, but the best we can guess from the tech specs. It will add significantly more to the base because the base does not come with standard front and rear lockers, you can't get the base Sasquatch without an automatic transmission, the transfer case in the non-Sasquatch base is lighter, and the base wheels are probably the lightest available on a Bronco.

There will likely be pins/ bolts made to minimize the need for actually bolting the door in... whether it’s approved by Ford or not.

Thank you for at least attempting to answer my question. Your math makes a lot of sense. I can’t find the exact answer anywhere. But I think yours is pretty close.

Does that mean setting my phone on the wireless charging pad would keep it from shutting off?

Me neither. Once they are off, they stay off.

The title reminded me of Southpark :ROFLMAO:

and when I see that, automatically think of this:

Ford Bronco No such thing as a dumb question. 1625100440114


That aside, I'm wondering who's working on performance parts already besides a tune and intake, and when we should expect them. Not saying my 2.3'll die when driving it on a roadtrip this fall down south (still trying to decide where), just next summer, wanna have a FMIC+Charge pipes to go along with the custom tune, downpipe and short shifter

Unplugged the ASS in my F-150.

Sounds like the memes from iFunny

That said, however we can remove ASS from our vehicles, we should.

No. The same way the A/C doesn't stop it unless it is on Max. I was referring to the current draw from the 12v outlet.
