  1. 2021 MY guys - are we getting to the time to replace tires due to age?

    My sas Goodyears are labelled 2821 so 28th week of 2021 - July. Now seeing some dry rot (cracking between treads). Still have great tread and truthfully not a lot of miles - less than 15k (don’t need a vehicle during the weekdays). But it has spent its life in the driveway although mostly in...
  2. Any way to trim factory running boards / steps?

    Thanks. Will likely get the new 37 ko3s as well. Been waiting for stock sas tires to run their course. There about to hit 5 yr mark (still low miley). Good enough for me. Did you need a brake light extender as well? Don’t think you need em for 37 KO2s but the 37 ko3 are probably more true to size.
  3. Any way to trim factory running boards / steps?

    What tool did you use to cut and did you leave the boards attached to the Bronco while you cut it?
  4. 37 KO2s hit factory running boards?

    No I have 1” clearance with STOCK sas wheels and spacers and looking to go 37s.
  5. 37 KO2s hit factory running boards?

    Yeah - saw you remove the cap, remove the board, cut it and reattach the cap. Maybe not that big of a deal. Just shocked I haven’t seen guys with 37s and running boards saying it doesn’t work. I’m also accounting for KO2s which are in the smaller side. Maybe my 35mm spacers just took it over the...
  6. 37 KO2s hit factory running boards?

    Seems like a really tight fit. Seeing just a hair over an inch of clearance at the tights on stock sasquatch Goodyears. I have stock wheels with 1.4” spacers so slight negative offset. Plan on keeping both wheels and spacers and getting 37 KO2s. Reading actual size of stock tires are 34.4 vs...
  7. New Ford Modular Grille - Custom painted antimatter blue

    Looks awesome. The base piece has an identical surround, but the overall piece is technically not identical since the modular version has a different center area outlined around the BRONCO letters. Anyway you could ford is trying to run with that design across stuff.
  8. New Ford Modular Grille - Custom painted antimatter blue

    See my post above. I edited it. The photo above assumes my painter was willing to tape off the inner section. He was not. The corner triangles and the middle horizontal section around the letters ended up being blue. In a lighter azure gray it will look quite a bit different than this rendering.
  9. New Ford Modular Grille - Custom painted antimatter blue

    Yeah I didn’t really give everyone here the best sense of contrast going with AMB/black. lol. Some pics. also I THINK but I could be wrong - that the middle pieces may come in flat black and the rest is primed. Meaning you may not need to paint the middle sections if you choose to go that...
  10. New Ford Modular Grille - Custom painted antimatter blue

    No I didn’t see it. The auto body shop ordered it amongst other parts and did the work. I didn’t want to go matte. This spec is a rare bird - body painted door handles and mirror caps. Everything is gloss between the bumpers to the roof. I wanted to keep it that way. There was a point in time...
  11. New Ford Modular Grille - Custom painted antimatter blue

    Idk. There was Idk - didn’t pay for it, the other driver did. there was other stuff that needed to be fixed that also required paint. A rear tire of a defender backed into the top corner by the grille/headlight/fender.
  12. Grenadier rental review

    OP here - in retrospect, I will say I was thankful I had the grenadier for this trip over the Bronco. But that’s only because the safari windows going through Yosemite was kind of peak-use cool (and they are positioned far up enough you could get great views as opposed to a sunroof that starts...
  13. New Ford Modular Grille - Custom painted antimatter blue

    Keeping mine for a very long time. Will be tough when my oldest starts driving. Dont have the space…and dont want her driving an almost 15 yr old car at the time but we will see. I imagine there will likely be a newer Bronco to spark my interest that would just be a shared 3rd car with my...
  14. New Ford Modular Grille - Custom painted antimatter blue

    Yeah I think this design piggy backs off the 60th. The base piece is the same. Theres a slight difference in the mid section pieces, and the modular version has that third set of added overlay pieces (with the little trapezoid shapes at the ends). I was considering getting the 60th and custom...
  15. Grenadier rental review

    It’s a fob with a switchblade style key. Lock/unlock/alarm buttons on the fob. No passive/proximity entry so it doesn’t detect you. Hit the unlock button, flip out the key and use a keyed ignition. Basic stuff. Doesnt give off a noticeable beep when you lock it. Just noting that because there...
