I don't see any competition here I just see four doors without a stick shift

Hydraulic e-brake kit Sure I'd probably roll the Bronco if I had it but let me live!

Sorry, brake not break.

This thread is really confusing to me. We're talking about how it should have a manual parking brake and everybody says it doesn't need it for safety or parking... You think we want it for safety and parking? The lever is for sliding!!! The electric simply can't do that. I'm really not that...

Unless they make a two-door stick shift I don't really see this as competition. Bonus points if the roof comes off

That's the full linkage replacement. Big job. I did that one and was really scared I'd end up messing something up and ending up with a bronco that needed to go to the mechanic but couldn't go into gear. Good news is I was successful so even an idiot can do it. That said, for this shifter...

Not a single issue on mine so far. That said, it's a pretty loud place to be. My wife finds the ride quality of my Sasquatch two-door to be a bit too firm but I certainly don't regret opting for that suspension. Sure I can feel potholes on the road but it soaks up bumps when you're flying down...

I mean come on, the air pump even pumps up the matters!!!!! So clean!

Did you just casually DIY something way nicer than anything that can be bought for any amount of money? I'm blown away by this!

I have to say I didn't love the look of the 4 door on stock rubber but on 37s or bigger it looks really really good. The longer car looks way bigger with bigger wheels.

I absolutely love the steel wheels. They just make it look classic and hard working Also little wheel big rubber is always best on an offroader.

Well you're definitely not wrong about the rocks lol So far I've only ever had to put air in them after airing them down for a trail. They've been holding air really well for a couple years now

I'm on the Sasquatch tires. Haven't done anything insane but they've been pretty good on muddy logging roads and some, not as intense as the West Coast or south west, maine rocks. Sounds like the KO2s are better but that the stocks Sasquatch ones aren't necessarily bad

Well everyone says the tires aren't that great offroad. Good news is I'm pretty new to offroad so to me they seem to be working really well. Cool to know there are even better options but, since I don't know what I'm missing I've been really happy.

What's keeping you away from the 4 runner? They're pretty nice too. I wanted stick and removable top but if I didn't a 4 runner might have caught my attention. But 4 doors and no stick means it might leave some of your boxes unchecked. You may be in the minority but if enough people want...
