I have the Suma mirrors and my only 2 choices were grey tint (hard to see back with tinted windows) or blue. I contacted Suma several times if they will ever offer clear. The answer was NO. I am going to replace with your clear ones and give an honest review.

Un tinted?

What size tires are you looking at?

Wide tired on narrow rims.

Our 2024 Badlands was rear ended a few months back. $24k in damage and the insurance company insisted that it be repaired. Someone on this forum gave me some valuable advice. Tell the insurance to include "diminished value" to the damage cost. That will be enough to total it. I drove mine...

I have a '25 and after I installed the new hitch and the new module, I had to take it to Ford to get the computer reprogrammed.

Roughly an hour... if the welded nuts on the hitch blank off dont spin. Found out after having to use the cut off wheel to remove the existing hitch bolts. Use a torch on the weld nuts to melt the lock tite then you should be good.

Also, the handle you pull to fold the seat flat can also be used to recline the seat rearward. It is only an inch or so, but it does make it more comfortable for the rear passengers.

To be fair, the collars were the smallest 2 piece ones RPG makes. Also, my Bronco was Mfg. in January 2025 so the perches weren't very stuck. I used a small sledge hammer and a 1/2" drive x 10" ratchet extension and just the hammer. Basically a metal solid bar. I tried a wooden dowel, but the...

I actuall was successful with installing mine. I used the traditional spring compressor from Harbor Freight for the fronts, and the strut compressors for the rear. Took about 4 hours total in the driveway and a floor jack. I was not worried about it being sketchy because the springs never...

That disconnected wire plugs into the new trailer tow module. Actually very easy to install.

I did not heat the bolts on my 2025 and I ended up having to use a cutting wheel to remove the bolts. Ford wanted $400 to reprogram for the trailer tow lights. Negotiated down to $180.

I did the math and the 7,700 # trailer was not rated for a 4 door Bronco. Our 4 door Badlands weighs 5,200 # empty. Add rock sliders, bike rack, camping gear, trailer tongue box, spare tire etc. True weight is closer to 6,000 # to 6,500 #. I decided to get the Aluma 18', tilt deck, 9,900 #...

We do. 18' Aluma tilt trailer.
