Beach Daze

Haven’t really done much to the build the last year. Still happy with it as-built. Just been enjoying the Bronco and having fun at events, rides and traveling.

The manual transmission comes with the 4.71 gearing, so it’s already set up for 35s.The Mickey’s are pretty heavy. I was more concerned with the steering and tie rods. Etc. So I made sure to install the supporting. modifications to reinforce those areas. I have 24k mi. on the clock, well over a...

1) Yes. Cam is the furthest point forward after relocation. 2) I haven’t purchased them yet. However, the LOD will do the job. I think there’s a couple other companies/members who offer other variations. 3) Yes. Everything I needed was included and was plug and play. I did use some additional...

This thread probably didn’t get much traction because it’s in an odd sub forum. Did you ever find a resolution to this? I’ve been looking at this top for the 2D, but it’s not even available at the moment. Can’t find information on the actual company or where this is being made.

I posted my notes here! 👍 https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/high-mount-winch-plate-installed-on-capable-bumper.84301/

Yes. The body mounts (crash bar mounting points) were removed and replaced w/ the JKS Big Tire Kit. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃

That’s where I’ve seen most installs run it regardless of winch or mount. Looks good.

Yeah, definitely would have been a good detail to know prior to installing. 😂 No big deal. I wanted to add a switched relay anyway. I’ll get the parts, take a day to break it down, then tweak a few small details. I still have some bar clamps and lights to install.

It’s hard to explain to people who don’t own it… sounds like that every time it stalls under load. If I try to brake boost(2 pedal) it stalls. If I try to “bump” the clutch it just smokes it. The situation doesn’t happen often, but when it does it didn’t leave me feeling confident. Has anyone...

Someone more knowledgeable than me please chime in. The clutch and transmission the Bronco uses isn’t “normal.” This video is concerning because I‘ve had this same “sensation” in the past when stalling on inclines. But I wasn’t in a situation where gravity could truly take over like that. Since...

Love the color! Very clean install. I like what you did with the lights. I’ve got a set of bar clamps and KC Pro Gravity 6 for the bull bar, but I kind of like what you did. I could put the KCs on the pillar. 🤔 How did you get the camera bracket behind the plate mount? Mines sandwiched between...

Thank you! Will do, first I’ve seen them. I have some LOD products on the Badlands. Solid stuff! 💪

Camera Stitching

I’d say no more or less than the Ford Performance model when installed. The winch mounting brackets are pretty beefy at the mounting point.. Additional the recovery point is directly in line with the mounting point and frame, so the force should be transferred directly and not at a leveraged...
