Iāve had my ā23 Badlands for a little over a month now, so decided to take it out for some proper off-roading. Ray Rocks in MO is an old rock quarry, with some large open sandy areas as well as heavily wooded tree trails. Area is not too far from where I'm located in Kansas City and just kind of...
Went to a local park near me this last weekend. Started the trip meter before I left home. ~30 mile trip there, +4 hours of off roading and I was sitting about 12 MPG by the time I left.
No complaints!
I've installed the same, front and rear. Fronts were a real life saver driving down gravel roads back at my parents. Even with, still have rock chips in the rear flares, but would have been much worse without the guards. Really came in handy running into some deep mud ruts at a local OHV park...
Pretty straightforward I think, maybe a few tricky spots but nothing you canāt handle with basic tools and skills. Hereās a video from Chase Gentry with an overview of the install process.
As far as warranty, I suspect it wouldnāt affect it being as it is a Ford kit and doesnāt affect engine...
Simplest, likely so. But the Ford Performance one seems very beefy with all the support points. Also cheaper than any other option with this 25% sale going on. I had been comparing a few options for a while and ordered Ford Performance this week. Already arrived at my door, so Iāll tackle the...
Nice! I was looking to get the dual ARB compressor kit when it was 15% off last month but (luckily) the discount code didn't work for that item for some reason. Now at 25% off, I think I have to!
The 5.0 was a manual. The Badlands has the 2.7 auto.
The 5.0 was a lot of fun. Bought it new ten years ago. Loved driving it and always had the urge to just go fast. Been driving mustangs my whole life. I knew I wanted the Bronco and have been drooling over it for the last few years. With two...
Sorry if this has been discussed a lot, couldnāt find the answer searching the forums here.
Does the 2023 Badlands come with the upgraded steering rack?
I know the 2024 does, seeing plenty of information on that but getting mixed results when trying to confirm 2023. Maybe I was getting mixed...
Wow, I didnāt even realize itās been so long haha. I really didnāt want to give up the stang, but this is truly a much better fit for me and the family. No regrets.
