That washer is copper, not aluminum. I would stick with aluminum since the transfer case is probably aluminum as well (dissimilar metals, crush hardness, etc.). They have an aluminum one for M18. Interestingly, McMaster does not have 2mm thick ones in 18mm (except one weird wood-filled one). But...

If you search for "crush washer aluminum 18mm", lots of stuff will pop up on amazon. They don't list the bronco fitment specifically and you have to match up other dimensions (seem to be a lot of 1.5mm thick). I don't think the 2mm thickness is critical but they are out there, listed for other...

I have Blue Ox baseplate only because our F150 was set up for Blue Ox. We now have a Roadmaster tow bar with Blue ox knuckles for backwards compatibility. My only complaint with the Blue Ox is they have no provision to keep the recovery D-ring. I’m mulling over a welding project to add sleeves...

This is in response to Iowa Hawkeye post. (I cant get it to quote for some reason.) Roadmaster Sterling All Terrain, but with Blue Ox baseplate connectors. (kept it compatible with our F150 which was originally set up with Blue Ox).

So far so good. Over 2K miles towed now. Pro: Quick and easy to hook up. No trailer to stow. No trailer to maintain, especially trailer tires. Con: Wear and tear on tires and bearings. The braking system and lighting was a pain to install. I have to remove the tow bar from the motorhome when...

Hard to believe they are making that little and pay the employees and bills at a dealership. But I dont know anything about the numbers in that type of business. Also, the great deal from original post (4% below invoice)doesn't seem so great to me then. As the recent "Ford Employee Pricing for...

Is there a way to translate the "invoice" price to sticker MSRP? Years ago a rule of thumb I read was the markup from dealer cost was 15% on vehicle and 20% on options. Is this still approximately correct?

Nice clean install. Let us know if there is a drone inside at cruising speed.

Interesting question. And really should be answered in two parts: 1) Current drawn by the Bronco systems while sitting in flat tow mode. And 2) Current drawn by the aux braking system during this time, if it is left on. The Bronco seems to sit there and "do things" noted by clicking relays...

Thanks. Im looking into it. I haven't found any real scientific tests of the stuff yet. Just the video with a guy slingshot-shooting steel bearings at a piece of tempered glass with Exoshield. Not a windshield. No speed control or measurement. No comparison of unprotected glass. Since we have...

Wife caught a rock or other object that cracked the windshield on our 4 month old 24 Badlands (lower center) this week. It was about a 4 inch crack yesterday and added an inch today. Safelite guy inspected this morning and since it extends to bottom edge they have to replace not repair. We will...

Talk about a brain fart! I just now realized that was an option for installing my aux braking system wires. I, for some reason, focused on that little nub on the big round grommet. I had to cut the whole end off of it and it was small for the number of wires. I ran all my wires through that and...

If the inspection shows "repair" or replacement is covered under warranty, Ford should offer the option to install/upgrade to the shocks of your choice. They should credit the cost of the crappy fix (parts and labor) and let you pay the difference. This would go a long way toward customer good will.

You must have assumed an insulation type and max temperature. What was it? Also what rule did you use for fuse size selection relative to max ampacity. Did you assume wire in free air or in a bundle, and/or in a conduit of some sort? Sorry, life's complicated. If you've built in adequate margins...

Ohh...Ohhh......I got one more! Just research the plastic "body bolts" or whatever they are called at various places and ID them and sell a couple size packages, and a package of 2 or 3 of each style/size on the exterior. BUT PACKAGE THEM WITH LABELS SO I KNOW WHAT GOES WHERE. Ive have a need...

Thanks I forgot to check the website. So just now did:

On my 2024 the blend date is 10/11/24 so I assume it is after the recall cutoff of 7/23/24. I went out and checked (see pix) and I have the short flange, there is no sealant on the joint, and the cover is different than the one in the recall pix. It is just "clipped" on by the plastic flex. And...

No im taking the risk and flat towing. So far (maybe 3K miles), no issues except the brake warning when I take it out of flat tow mode, which goes away upon starting. But your solution is certainly less risky and less wear on the Bronco tires and bearings. And I bet the cost of the trailer...

Secure phone holder with MagSafe and wireless charging that mounts in the most obvious out of the way, non-view obscuring, out of the sun, place: on back or side of Aux switch housing overhead, or other suitable location out of the way and convenient. 12V/gnd should be available inside the Aux...

Needed: Secure phone holder with MagSafe and wireless charging that mounts on back of Aux switch housing overhead, or other suitable location out of the way and convenient. 12V/gnd should be available inside the Aux housing or maybe the passenger visor upfitter wire could be used. (Needs...
