Bringing my Bronco to 'Next Level' enjoyment

[DriveAllNight]

Okay so my OEM skids came in yesterday evening, and of course I'm at the dealer today to get them.
I asked about them putting on the gas tank and Transfer Case, and throw the other 2 in the back, its cold and wet outside, so I'm now waiting for them to install the skids while I drink coffee .

I was going to take a picture of the box, and any install issues, but this seems easier
So I wait... pictures of the finished results to follow, and a posting to sell the superfluous skids I don't need. I posted the sale of the skids on the forum in the appropriate place if anyone is interested.

And ... obligatory skid pics

Put on my Boss Walker Links today, no real fun story to go with them. Went to my brother in laws garage, because a lift is so much better than crawling under. The install is pretty straight forward for the most part.

Looking forward to test them out.

Also put this on the walker link thread.

Mind directing me to the Forscan settings to reduce the blinker sound level? Thanks for sharing!

Installed Rigid ditch lights today.
Everything was very straightforward, no surprises, no difficulties, nothing to warn anyone with. Ford made hooking up ditch lights really easy with the aux switches. I used switch 3, very happy.

Here's a link to a YouTube video that helped: HowToInstallLights

Just because...

Spring is here, which means roof panels will be coming on and off regularly until I can get the softtop on.

What it also means is, time to apply Gummi Pflege Stift on back door seal and roof seals ... gotta keep the rubber from drying out folks !!! Also helps with annoying squeaking!

Im sure there are other brands that work well, but I've had good success with this.

Put the hardtop back on yesterday, time to embrace the fall, and of course went over all the rubber stuffs with Gummi Pflege Stift . I still very much stand by this stuff, whatever is in it. It works, lubricates the rubber, and stops squeaking especially on the tailgate.

I forget how much quieter it is with my hardtop on.

About a month ago, I leased a 2025 Audi Q6 Quattro which is an EV, talk about a quite, smooth ride. I feel like I have 2 vehicles on the opposite ends of what a car can be. I didn't want to keep my Bronco as a daily and put all those miles on it, it was always the plan to find something, never did I think I would get an EV, too much range anxiety, but with the Bronco, I don't worry about it, I just use the right car for the trip.

Finally got rid of those not so good looking stickers. Sorry, but I never warmed up the refrigerator badges.
And Bronco Script installed...

Moved it the inside tailgate, and under the hood... no idea why.

I updated the first post - as I do so everything is easy to get to.
It's warm out and time to switch tops to the soft top - love it!!

I am certain, I will never use the roof rack or put it on ever again. It does add extra noise and although it looks cool, if I'm not using it, I don't see the point if it doesn't get used.

So my advice for anyone thinking about it, they are great if you use them, but not worth it if you don't really use it. Unless you really love the look and you're not swapping roofs twice a year.

With that said, I am not going to actively sell it at the moment , I have a lot going on, ( I just moved and am focusing in on that) at some point I will probably put it on the market page, along with the bash plates I never sold the first time. I'm sure those are sill up on that page somewhere.

If someone really wants the roof rack now and is willing to come get it, and we agree on a price, I will sell it now as an FYI. I know how it can be when you have a need for something, and you can't work on someone else's timetable. Just send me a message, I'm in central NJ on the eastern side.
