So this is going to be a big write up that I'm hoping will answer most of the questions concerning the alternator situation. First up, we are currently working on a video of the removal and cleaning of the non-functioning alternator. Hopefully that will be up in a couple weeks. For those who...
A few months back, we had a father/son race to take the hard top off on two four-door Broncos. Those washer fluid lines hung up both teams :ROFLMAO: haha should the winners face off against Vaughn and Loren??:unsure:
Mitch Chiming in with an Update: Looks like it's gonna be alternator pull day(hopefully today). I took my skid plate off and sprayed the mess out of the alternator with the electric cleaner. I disconnected negative battery terminal to reset the system. Then I went for a test drive keeping an...
Mitch chiming in here: That is probably a decent synopsis. I may have to snag a can and go to work. Anything to keep from having to pull the alternator, but if it comes to it, it'll be more wrench time=more learning. We'll see how it goes.
Mitch chiming in here: After last year's mud expeditions, I'm in the same boat as you when it comes to mud. haha HOURS AND HOURS of my life went to cleaning the poor thing :LOL: don't get me wrong, it was fun, but after weighing the fun vs the outcome, I'll have to buy something I can thrash and...
Mitch chiming in here: I watched Krista's video and I may go that route if I have to. From talking to Ford, it won't be covered by warranty. (They said the dirt would be hard to miss haha) Although when you think about it, because I was blasting through a water puddle, not a mud puddle, I'm...
Mitch chiming in here: Yeahhhh, that was me:ROFLMAO: haha I learned to hate the mud after that. I still think it's absolutely fun to drive through, but I can't justify the time I spent cleaning my Bronco afterwards lol I would need a Piece-of-Junk vehicle that I could put away wet to get me to...
Mitch chiming in here: I think you're right. But I do think in the overall picture of innovation and quality, if you aren't pushing the bar, progress will never be made. Whether that progress is left up to aftermarket manufactures or factories is probably determined by demand. Most folks aren't...
Mitch chiming in here: If it's a rite of passage, I think I'm in haha I know I'm not the first, and won't be the last but man! It was a fun time. Problems always offer learning experiences, and I learned that if you send it hard enough, eventually things are going to break. Then again, I already...
Was it worth it?
First off we want to thank the Gold Country Bronco Group for inviting us out to their meet up. We highly recommend new Bronco owners living in Northern California to join this group!
Bronco Academy: An event to learn about your rig with minimal risk of damage. A verity of...
Hey California!
Wild Horses 4x4 is your one-stop source for Off-Road and other four wheeling needs. We began operations in 1989 by parting out a few wrecked early Ford Broncos, expanded into new replacement parts and then started designing improved parts to replace the parts we kept breaking...
Congrats on getting your new ride! The Baja Boss in my opinion is a great tire it is decently quite and has lots of traction in the wet and in the rocks. Nitto also makes a great tire you really cant go wrong with them. If we are at either events coming up we can definitely talk and compare the...
