I think a lot of it comes from me slow rolling into obstacles, giving it a bump. I went through more steering parts than others when I was wheeling Toyotas. California is a lot of rock gardens which is just hard on IFS parts.
You're like the 3rd person to bring those up. I like the idea of...
Well yesterday was a busy day of warranty requests after swapping out my last spare tie rod on Sunday!
Rough Country just sent me out a 3rd set under warranty! Currently what I am running and been pretty happy with them. They last about 2 oil changes before developing enough play in the inner...
I stalled power stop on my F150 and another brand on my Ram. Neither was a huge improvement, just regular maintenance items at the time. I would definitely buy a kit again, power stops are still going strong 6 years latter and lots of life left.
Solid product!
I have had this talk with a few other people but you can reliably run 37s on a Bronco. The parts last long enough to say it's reasonably doable. This whole portal and 40 things is the first step towards a trailer rig. Parts just don't last long enough to call it reasonable.
What are you at...
Avoiding unproven products from brands that once represented quality and commitment. Metalcloak and Arb are the two biggest offenders on the Bronco platform.
@DrRoboto 8112 are designed for 35s and set up with those internal "Zone Control". They are optimized for a specific ride height to balance out the technology just like stock SAS shock. They are a new take on trying to provide a progressive shock that has nice street manners with aggressive...
Between FDRS and Forscan it's pretty easy to work on. You can data log and write modules with ease. Everything can be done in a driveway which is huge plus.
I don't like how the steel rotors bolt to an aluminum center assembly. Different materials, with different heat expansion and heat releases Loctite. Also would have liked to see the factory brake rotor mounts integrated in for more rotation strength.
Dinner bill... Shit restaurant, half the table I don't talk to for good reason and my wife limiting me to one drink so I don't give them the 2 cents they deserve. I could have gone on a 3 day Cruise with unlimited drinks instead.
Skid plates, suspension and then some tires! I wouldn't buy into lockers till you blow up the front end. Having less will teach you more, its funny how many people use lockers instead of picking the right line to get through something. Learning were to put a tire is more important than anything...
I agree!
4wp shocks are definitely the best option still available for the price. Several people have 60k+ miles on them which is amazing. They do give to much lift for some but you can swap springs which adds cost.
6100 are worth it but since you have to buy springs the 5100s are a much...
