  1. Super Clean GMRS Radio Install!

    While looking to mount the GMRS as others have done on drivers side behind fuse panel I noticed a couple studs on the lower firewall. It is far enough from legs/feet and high enough off the floor. I was able to keyhole to holes on the original bracket provided for the GMRS radio to use. You...

    @Dmorty217 What type of rear lights do you have in your bumper?

    You guys are right these bumpers are expensive. It’s actually the first aftermarket bumper I ever bought. It was sticker shock looking.

    I do not think that would happen with LOD bumper…. I think tail pipe would have been crushed. Between bumper and rock…

    I added the shims (washers) at the top side between spindle and bumper. (top) wedge is at bottom of spindle... Shimming the top tilts the spindle toward the front of the vehicle. It would be best not to add shims but if you have to this is the best place to do it since it is not near the...

    Ok! I took the spare tire back off and loosened the spindle and added a couple washers under the spindle at the top. That took care of the tilting back of the spare tire. It is now parallel with the tail gate. Now in terms of being parallel or level with the bumper, I have the wedge in a...

    You don't realize how big the tires are until you lift one of them up to the carrier šŸ˜‚

    I am not seeing any slippage. It’s pretty solid. When shaking the carrier the whole vehicle will move. No slop, I think once adjusted and tightened correctly all should be good. I have not seen a whole lot of broncos with this set up yet. I am going to reach out to the only fellow I know...

    Got the tire carrier on and started final adjustments. I ran into a snag, even after ā€œshimmingā€ the bumper I am finding it difficult to get the tire carrier parallel to the tail gate. I spoke with support and sent a video of the tail gate latching correctly and showing the carrier sitting...

    Since you mentioned of others having issues. I want to make sure the "wedge" was properly seated. I made a wooden "wedge" to make sure that it was tapped into place firmly. I wonder if they may not have had the wedge seated in place before tightning all the way. Another thing I mentioned...

    The retainers finally came in on Friday, I was able to pick them up before they closed. Saturday I got the sensors all set, I was hoping to get my brother over to help lift the bumper but he was at his cottage so I waited until Sunday. He never answer my callšŸ™. I used buckets, blocks of wood...

    I decided to take a look at the carrier to see if I can do anything…. Tail gate reinforcement bracket added and the hinge mechanisms added without tightening. Per instructions keep loose these will require the adjustments before tightening… To go farther I need the sensors in, the swing arm...

    Show a picture of the ā€œADDā€ bumper with the tail gate open. How does it fit up… Thanks,

    I pulled the old bumper and tire carrier off today. Fairly easy, was surprised that the oem tire carrier is plastic Pulled the sensors out installed the two center ones in the LOD bumper no issue. However the sensors on the ends will not fit into the LOD bumper. Going to give them a call...
  16. GMRS Installed in 2021 Bronco Base

    Yes... I just seen the comment and was interested. I agree on the rabbit hole and legality. I watched that Nota Rubicon also along with reading and watching a few others. My brother purchased a Midland, he just drove over and we just did a small range test. The hand held was able to reach his...
  17. GMRS Installed in 2021 Bronco Base

    Interesting comment... Just learning about the GMRS radio(s) I see the Wouxun models i have interest in can receive transmission on Ham/ emergency frequencies but does not allow output transmission even in an emergency. From what I see this Wouxun can use both GMRS and FMRS however limited to...
  18. Easiest/Fastest GMRS radio install!

    I have found that setting up the repeaters is quite simple. From my house I can hear transmissions from 2 repeaters with the handheld. It is two far for transmission on the handheld. My brother picked up a radio so now the goal is to reach his home. I picked up the 20 WATT Woxoum. If this...
  19. GMRS Installed in 2021 Bronco Base

    Yes… I looked over that thread… more interested in areas that exposes the unit. Similar to this thread. I would like to see options showing the face of the unit. I do not want to hide if I can avoid but I don’t want it to interfere with anything. Choices are limited… just looking to see what...
