  1. Build Advice - First Time going in to a Bronco

    I fiddled with the website yesterday, you can certainly get the 4A option on a non-sas badlands in the 2.3 stick. For Denver, and certainly for going up 70 into the mountains in the winter, 4A would be an absolute requirement for me. You can always kick it into dedicated 4x4, or "Snow" mode on...
  2. Build Advice - First Time going in to a Bronco

    No worries! That’s the best part about the Bronco - they’re all different in their own unique way. When you buy a Bronco, it’s Kind’ve like buying a new construction house. You get the house, but then you make it a home by doing the little things that you like to it, and the list is endless...
  3. Build Advice - First Time going in to a Bronco

    I would also note the aftermarket options are quite nice. When looking at the accessories from Ford, you are likely to find the exact same for less money directly from the part supplier.
  4. Build Advice - First Time going in to a Bronco

    I have dual top and love it. But I also have the ability to store it on my garage ceiling via electric winch, keeping it out of my way during the spring/summer/fall months. Man, I tell you, on the soft top, when you can take out the back vinyl windows and leave the top on, it's fantastic! Keeps...
  5. Transmission Failure: ‘24 32k mi 2.3l

    I don't buy the excuse about the weight of the tires either. I'm "standard load" 275/65/18, has to be one the lightest tires you can get, and have the 4.27 ratio (rear locker). I saw something on one of my fb feeds of a shop talking about the valve bodies in all of these 10 speeds from Ford...
  6. Transmission Failure: ‘24 32k mi 2.3l

    I do get some hard clunk down shifts in mine, especially when it's cold. Once the trans temp is up to normal, it smooths out better but not entirely. Noticing it's getting worse now too (25k miles, changed the fluid / filter at 4k for the PPE pan and had the dealership reconfirm proper fluid...
  7. MPG

    Mine doesn't register MPG (Miles per Gallon). Mine registers GPM.
  8. Ford vs Dorman drain plug

    I have a drain pan, and when done, I transfer it to a 5 gallon tank for storage. Once that it is full, I go to the recycle center to empty it. The transfer from the pan to the 5 gallon tank is tedious and looking forward to getting a hose for the Ronin and letting the old oil just go straight...
  9. Ford vs Dorman drain plug

    I changed my oil yesterday and decided it would be the last time I endure "splash down". When done, came inside and immediately ordered the Ronin plug off amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H56TP4F?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title
  10. 2025 Badlands Differental Cover

    Well damn. Changing oil today and took a closer look at mine. It’s got some rust on it too, but also think some dirt. Oh well…as long as it’s not a problem other than cosmetically, I’m not going to worry about it for now. Maybe replace it with something else later if it’s too bad. The...
  11. Need Leather wrap steering wheel suggestions

    I've always liked the King Ranch treatment on the F150 in years past. I think I want to update my steering wheel with a new cover. I have the roast interior and thinking this may play well with the color. Anybody done anything like this yet to theirs? I'm looking at the Redline site, I presume...
  12. Ford offering Navigation after trial - is it worth it?

    Sounds like they’re the same! I didn’t know Google does that too. I haven’t messed with Google and can’t compare, but I do find that Waze is very ease for me to use, plus I like having Morgan Freeman as my guiding voice! This is my first car with easy use of CarPlay. It’s all I use and totally...
  13. Ford offering Navigation after trial - is it worth it?

    Waze, 100%. For those of us in states where radar detectors are illegal, the choice is obvious.
  14. 2025 Badlands Differental Cover

    I’ve had my FP diff cover now for 2 years, not a single problem, still looks new. No issues with rust, leaking, etc. Carbonsteel has a great thread on here about how to install it, including the types of threaded bolts to get to enhance its mounting grip and appearance. I followed his...
