  1. Bull bar recommendations for capable bumper

    I've had the same experience. I'm more programmer than structural engineer, but I think the analogies are apt. When a new system is deployed it takes developers a little extra time to learn the load specs and to design new adaptations that work. The Wrangler platforms usually didn't change...
  2. Form Lighting Headlights Upgrade Is a Must Have: Installation & Results Video

    These look similar to the Morrimoto XRGBs that I installed last summer, and I'm very happy with them.
  3. Capable Bumper Brush Guard Options?

    @Justinfro you're absolutely correct about the grill mounts being the most difficult part. But after removing those top bolts they went in pretty easily. Glad to hear you had good luck with the Dremmel. I did some test fitting and looks like I won't have to do too much cutting. I'm very happy...
  4. Capable Bumper Brush Guard Options?

    Just installed the TAC brush guard that @Justinfro mentions above, and I couldn't be happier with it! Install was pretty easy and the included instructions were accurate. A couple of notes that I'll cover in a separate install post. As @Mike S says, the instructions are written for either the...
  5. Not a misanthrope...why I don't like major offroad events.

    As I've always said, humans are a fine thing in moderation. I used to think I was a misanthrope, but it urns out I just don't like people in large numbers. It's not an agoraphobic thing, it's just that the anthropological dynamics shift in an unfavorable (to me) direction when any event begins...
  6. Cheap modular bumper

    While I firmly believe Amazon has descended into a front for cheap Chinese knock-offs, I believe it's still a bit like Harbor Freight in that there are real quality deals (ICON, US General, etc.) to be found if you have the patience to look with a discriminating eye. I just ordered this brush...
  7. What is this for??

    Congrats on your Bronco! That's an RJ11 and could go to a lot of things. It could power low draw devices or even be a microphone extension for radios. Not stock. I'd trace it to see what it's connected to. May be wired to one of your aux switches for a radar detector like many have said.
  8. Capable Bumper Brush Guard Options?

    Thanks! Did you have any issues with the guard or brackets covering the four front parking sensors?
  9. Capable Bumper Brush Guard Options?

    That looks awesome! Do you mind sharing where you got it? I tried TAC's website but didn't see it.
  10. Bull bar recommendations for capable bumper

    Watching closely.
  11. Ham Radio Install with DIY Mount

    Very nice rig, and thanks for sharing. Particularly nice work on the grounding straps. Agreed, I originally wanted to use one of the aux switches to power the Yaesu but, like you said, they are bundled pretty tightly. And since I plan on mounting other powered accessories I was afraid they might...
  12. Bull bar recommendations for capable bumper

    Can you give an ETA? Won't hold you to it. Just an idea. I'm so pissed at Ford right now it wouldn't take much to shift me back to a Wrangler. When I ordered this truck I told them the steel bumper not thinking they had the "modular" bumper as well as this POS Capable Bumper. This thing is like...
  13. Blind Spot Detection with Cross Traffic Fault

    Yeah, I just had the same faults show up on my dash. No rain here for the past week or so. Drought, actually. Happened while I was at a park with gravel trails so I assumed maybe a sensor was temporarily bothered by dust. I'm under 1,000 miles on this thing so I'll just return to the dealer. But...
  14. Wife needs help getting in the Bronco. Looking for stirrup options if any

    I had a lifted Wrangler that our mom had a hard time getting in, so I got the Amp Research power steps since it wasn't a crawler: https://www.summitracing.com/search/part-type/running-boards-nerf-bars-and-truck-steps/product-line/amp-research-powersteps If you're dedicated to functional...
  15. New Bronco trouble

    Sounds like you've already gotten the best advice from everyone so I won't pile on. I'd wager 90% of "low voltage" alerts in a new vehicle are continuity. Start with the negative cable, then push the fuses, etc.
  16. R.I.P. Raptor - 12/2022-9/2023

    The important thing is, you walked away. Second, and not to be a downer, but I don't see anything career-ending in that. Other than the control arm (and spindle), it looks mostly superficial. Looks like the steel bumper did its job.
  17. Capable Bumper Accessories?

    This bumper is like birth control for front end accessories. I had the 7-inch Mopar lights over the winch of my Wranglers for years and loved them. But it looks like I'm going to have to settle for ditch lights with the Bronco.
