  1. De-ionizing water filter for washing your Bronco.

    Has anyone installed a special inline filter with their garden hose for washing their cars? Does the filter really reduce water spots? Thanks.
  2. Foiling car thieves with hidden sister 12 volt lead ?

    I recently read a post about how one of our members had his First Edition stolen. The thieves tried to cut the wire harness that powered the FordPass location feature. They weren't successful. I wonder if adding a hidden "sister 12 volt lead" would keep that FordPass location functioning even...
  3. Texas WTB - Damaged soft top window panels

    I've read a number of posts where thieves cut through the plastic windows to steal stuff from Broncos. My thought is, if I could get a set of damaged panels I'd replace the vinyl with screening. This way when I camp in the Bronco I could have cross ventilation without getting eaten by...
  4. DIY dash mount rail.

    Picked up a picatinny rail and drilled the center hole to 1/4 inch. I had a RAM mount ball that I attached. On the other end I drilled a slightly undersized hole and tapped it to 1/4 x 20. I removed the two "teeth" on each side of the hole. This allowed the tripod adapter it sit flush on the...
  5. GoPro picatinny mount.

    The picatinny GoPro mounts I've found so far seem to orient the camera lens parallel to the rail. I'd like to find something that when mounted on a left / right rail would point out the windshield. Thanks.
  6. Avoiding roll bar scuffs when lowering the soft top.

    From what I've read, scuffs happen when the top is not pulled perfectly straight back. I don't have a "soft top assistant" so keeping the soft top square with one person is a challenge. When it's not 105 degrees outside, I'm going to explore the possibility of attaching a yoke to the front of...
  7. Anyone Installed a Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver?

    Has anyone actually installed a front receiver on their 6G Bronco? I've seen portable winch platforms for rear receivers and just wondered if it could be made to work in front. Thanks.
  8. Symmetry restored.

    When I walked to the back of my '22 Black Diamond I noticed that there was only one "rescue ring" under the bumper and it was on the driver's side. I subsequently looked at the arse end of a First Edition. It had two rings! So Ford cheaped out on the Black Diamond! I was losing sleep over...
  9. Rescue stuff.

    I have not been off roading yet so I don't know my arse from my elbow. I have a '22 4 door Black Diamond with the Sasquatch package. I recently purchase a 4 in by 30 ft tow strap that is rated to 30,000 pounds. I figured that would be adequate for my vehicle. As I was proudly showing off my...
  10. What's the best location to tap into an "ignition switched" 12 volt source?

    I will be installing a wiring harness for a four pin towing connection. The manufacturer (Curt) suggests connecting a wire directly from the battery to their "brain box." That means even when the vehicle is "off" there could be a parasitic drain on the battery. I'd like to find a 12 volt...
  11. Can you turn on the rear view camera on when you're driving forward?

    It was Friday night and I was returning home after bar time. Some clown started tailgating me. I'm talking nasty close tailgating. With that 35 inch tire taking up a big part of the rear window, I had a hard time keeping an eye on this cretin. Is there a hack that would allow me to turn on...
  12. Making Weathertech mud flaps quickly "removable" so you don't rip 'em off on the trail.

    I installed Weathertech mud flaps on my Black Diamond 4 door with the Sasqusatch package. The screws holding the front flaps are easy to get to. It shouldn't be too difficult to remove the front flap when needed and reinstall 'em for the trip home. The rear flaps are a different story. The...
  13. Foam piece came out of driver's window.

    It was 100 degrees in Texas yesterday (and will be even hotter today). I've had my Black Diamond for four days now. I roll the window down and when I rolled it back up a piece of foam came up with the glass. It was lodged between the inside of the glass and the door sill. It's about an inch...
  14. Rear rescue ring.

    Yesterday I was able to pick up my '22 Black Diamond 4 door with the Sasquatch package. As i looked at the stock rear bumper it only had one "rescue ring." Now I'm sure that's enough, but my OCD says there should be a matching ring on the right side. Does anyone have a part number for that...
  15. Should I get a FordPass before I take delivery?

    I really don't need another credit card but if the benefits are worth it, I'll apply.
  16. A dealer you might want to consider working with.

    I stopped at my dealer (Five Star Ford in North Richland Hills, TX) to check on when I can expect delivery. Two more weeks. But Mike said a customer just backed out of his order. I laughed and asked just how big the ADM will be on that unit as it hits the lot. Says he with a straight face...
  17. Trying to decide if I should change my order from a Black Diamond Sas to a Wildtrak Hoss 3.0.

    The MotorTrend guys said they couldn't name Bronco "SUV of the year" in part because of build quality. I'm wondering if delaying to a 2023 Wildtrak will have any effect on quality. Maybe the chip shortage will be a thing of the past. Maybe there will be less pressure on production. Thoughts?
  18. Soft tops, Hard tops and Golden Retrievers.

    About six years ago I decided I wanted a Golden Retriever. Wanting to do the socially responsible thing, I contacted every rescue operation within a few hours drive of me. A couple of the things I found out -- Goldens are very popular AND they had a significant "return rate." Goldens are in...
  19. Any guess on the tires that will come on my Black Diamond Sasquatch package?

    I was told that the unit will be built in early February.
  20. Oldest prisoner on Dirt Mountain.

    What's the longest time any one bronco has spent (is spending) in lock-up on that outside lot? Since Dirt Mountain is uncovered, can the soft tops fade in the sunlight (or doesn't Michigan get sunlight)? Do you think an employee after an argument with his boss may have attempted to summit Dirt...
