For all you wondering about mpg with 40s I made a couple trips that I hand calculated the mileage and its not terrible.
2 highway trips have netted me 12.25mpg driving @ 70mph with a slight head wind. This was in cold temps too, about -4F(-20C). I suspect in better temps with out the headwind...
I've contemplated a tire repair option, problem is it can go down to -40 for about 6 months of the year here and I doubt any of that stuff works at those temperatures.
Might have to look at a bumper mount.
First question, has anyone actually seen a twisted or sagging tail gate on the bronco. Couldn't find anything on IG or searching here.
The spare setup I want to run will weigh 147lbs (40" nitto trail grappler on stock rim) and the max load for the tailgate appears to be 133lbs. Will the extra...
Honestly, your not going to save much with 38s. I’m 6’1 and definitely have to hike up my pants before getting into it. Looks like you have the same steps as me as well (go rhinos?). So my advice is get the wife some lifts for her shoes and go for gold. I’ve driven various jacked up...
I recently put 40s on my Bronco and would like to be able to keep track of which gear I’m in without having to shift into manual mode. Is there a setting on the dash that will allow me to do that? I scrolled through everything and could not find anything obvious. Every Ford in recent history...

I’ve run body lifts on several different vehicles one of which was in a high speed rollover at 80+mph. Everything hung together just fine.
If you’re the type of person who shows up at the trail (or the forums for that matter) and likes to flex on everyone with $10k in lift parts to fit the...
Unfortunately no, those ranger cab bolts were on back order in Canada and they just showed up this week.
Update on wheels though, the -12mm offset i ordered they only had 3 in stock and couldn’t find a 4th so I had to change things up. I ended up with a 17x9 0mm offset so that should keep...
