  1. Havoc rock sliders/steps paid off big

    In heavy duty 4 wheeling situations they can really help prevent damage. But they lower your ground clearance a bit. My wife and I learned how to elevate ourselves and "hop" into our Sasquatch without running boards or side steps. We just prefer the clean look without running boards or side...
  2. What You Learn After Signing... mud flaps and power running board recommendations?

    I would research and get the widest and longest mud flaps you can. They are not overly expensive and are relatively easy to install. I would try that first and see the results. Sometimes we are surprised with mud, rock throwing etc. of the Bronco, depending on our expectations, needs, etc...
  3. How heavy is your Bronco?

    So agree with this. I remember reading in detail about the Broncos configurations and weights when I reserved mine. I also like smaller and lighter weight vehicles. I had 4 TJ's and a CJ - loved all of them. 4 wheeled, towed boats, landscape trailers, never an issue, despite being smaller...
  4. Why do Bronco owners drive so slow?

    I drive my Bronco "slow"- mainly the speed limits or a little over. I also accelerate slowly. Reason- it's designed to be an on/off road vehicle, not meant for speed or super good handling on the pavement. It's top speed is only 100, which is not that fast. And to save gas- and I get pretty...
  5. Hitch delay

    Do alternate suppliers have them? I ordered my hitch from E Trailer over a year ago. Was only like 109.00, in stock and took me a whole 15 minutes to install. I have not yet done the wiring, I needed the hitch for a bike rack.
  6. Lower Ball Joint

    Hopefully the prices of some of these Bronco replacement parts become lower. I am hoping very much to keep my Bronco in retirement as my last vehicle. (I had a 1971 Bronco as my very first vehicle). From what I am seeing now though I won't be able to afford just the parts even if I am able to...
  7. Why not have a solid top?

    Well if the top did not leak or have defects maybe you would like it as is? I have no issues with my top- no leaks, drafts, etc. maybe it's just luck of the draw. I'll more than likely never take the top off- it's too heavy for my wife and I to lift it off and I have absolutely no where to...
  8. Why don’t you use sport mode on road?

    I tried it once and it put it in 4 X 4. I did not know how to get around that. I never used it again. I have the advanced 4 X 4 system, not the part time due to Sasquatch package. I would have strongly preferred the part time package with Sasquatch but it was not offered.
  9. Funny story about my wife. You have one?

    LOL, I encourage my wife to drive ours and most of the time she prefers to drive her older pick up. Heck I don't' even drive the Bronco that much. We are both kind of afraid if something happens, so hard to get service and parts. Our other vehicles are so much easier to get service and parts...
  10. Which Bronco Seats are the Most Comfortable?

    Love my Basequatch seats. They are manual and have height adjustment too. I'm 6", 34 inch inseam, very long legs. I have a hard time getting comfortable in a lot of vehicles, the Bronco fist me just fine. Good amount of steering wheel telescoping helps too as I have the seat pretty far back...
  11. Passed on my 2024 Badlands today, 1-23-24 -- what would you have done?

    Not a good dealer. First they should have done a better job of prepping and noticing the defects you pointed out. Then maybe discussed them with you and offered to take care of the defects and explain what they would do. Since they didn't, I would pressed the issue and asked them if they...
  12. Why don’t people like the OEM tires/wheels?

    I love the wheels and tires on by 2 door Base Sasquatch. I choose very carefully when I reserved my Bronco and decided to get what I really wanted- a slight lift, large tires and wheels. And it came with the proper gearing- so important and often overlooked when getting larger wheels and...
  13. What to do? Ordered a Raptor Bronco and what was ordered is not what was delivered?

    Well, you could have just walked away when they presented it to you with the 5K upcharge. Instead you got it. So be happy you have a Raptor, there are not that many around and for a lot of us it's beyond our pay grade. Or just give it back and accept the loss of money and get what you really...
  14. Auto start stop during break-in period ok for engine?

    I don't see it as a problem letting the shut off do its thing. You can always disable it by pushing the button. Mine worked fine when I first got my Bronco and usually almost always shut off at every light. I would use the disable button if I knew the light would be short. At long lights I...
  15. Dealership Fail! #2

    Unfortunately it's trial and error. Unless you know someone and they swear by how good the shop is. And some shops maybe have just one good tech. And they can't be everywhere at once and if they are out everything stops or someone not qualified does the work with no supervision.
  16. Dealership Fail! #2

    Incompetent dealers and mechanics. Not all dealers service departments are this way but in my area I am finding out that most are not that great. I could write an entire page or two on my horror stories. For the Little service that I have done on my vehicles I am going to say that maybe 2 out...
  17. Has anyone (intentionally) opened a headlight yet?

    I would leave them sealed for life. A story for anyone who wishes to read it......I replaced the headlight covers on my past C6 Corvette. Replacement covers were not that expensive and I thought it would be fairly simple. Wrong. A nightmare and did not turn out well in the end. I tried...
  18. Waited a year for this! (Post arrival) -- Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT tires + Fifteen52 Traverse HD wheels

    Wow what a change. It looks so great. Love the new wheel and tires and it looks so good against the green!
  19. Has anyone ran Pennzoil Platinum full synthetic oil in their Broncos? Had any issues?

    Awesome news for you, glad to hear! And they were able to get an engine pretty fast too. I still wonder what the cause of the oil appearing so thick like that is............
  20. Rock Rails- Will 4 Door fit 2 Door if they are cut?

    I have been looking extensively, locally for some used 2 door Rock Rails. None to be found locally. Some I have found like 4 hours away and that is too far to drive. 2 doors are very scarce in my area and I am finding only ones for 4 door. Has anyone bought the 4 door ones, modified them to...
