  1. Dash Phone Mount from "Buck Your Bronco"

    If this forum had star ratings, @Buck Your Bronco gear would get the max from me. I'm very impressed with the small phone mount that I ordered from him, and will likely be ordering more of his stuff. Long story short... I got to know him through email discussions and subsequent experiments into...
  2. How to Make an Emergency Release Handle for Inside of Swing Gate

    I was just about to post a snarky response while reading through this thread 😂. Glad you found this thread for me and responded, nicely, first! OP: Looks like a fun project, I'm definitely going to at least hide one behind the vent for emergencies/dead batteries. Thanks for the detailed...
  3. Unlock rear door without power?

    Darn, I just stumbled on this problem. I'm building a drawer/cargo-leveler and was struggling with how to run power into the 30“ pull drawer without pinching the wires... Only to realize that everything I would want to charge in there (jumper-pack, flashlights, etc) would be things I need when...
  4. Speaker comparisons for B&O upgrade

    I pulled the trigger and added an amp off the B&O sub outputs. I can confirm it works without any problems. It works great, in fact. I guess this is common knowledge since many LOCs and amps are designed for this situation (able to accept higher wattage inputs of modern vehicle audio...
  5. B&O Sub upgrade with stock amp

    I am in the camp that knows break-in is technically happening, but not knowing whether it will be noticable. Since I was trouble-shooting, I had to take the possiblity into account and give it some time before making my decision. My decision: adding a 300w amp to my 300w Polk, deading the box...
  6. B&O Sub only upgrade?

    I added an 8" Polk MM 300w, as it had a sensitivity just slightly lower than the Kickers that some people claimed worked well on the factory amp. Mine, at least, did not fare as well and was only "acceptablly" loud and seemed to be missing some frequencies. It did sound better than oem when...
  7. Roof Rattle on my MIC 2.0 top. Anyone else?

    I have the soft top but believe I have the same rattle on the same piece. It is driving me insane. Tried to pull the cover off but it wouldn't budge... Except just enough to make the rattle 10x worse. I will do the foam trick for now, but would really like to fix it "right".
  8. Blew BOTH CV Axles Out at the Same Time

    Yeah, now that I'm comfortable with my angles, I'm going to start worrying about how the "acceptable" increased angles affect the boot lifespan. 😂 The only CVs I've ever blown too early were due to unnoticed boot failures, likely due to increased angles. A diff drop is sounding better and better!
  9. My Badlands (7-Speed) Review - 10,000 Miles

    Ouch, sounds like you had a little bad luck with the assemblers! I'm at 3000 with my Badlands and haven't seen any of this, yet (except for window rattles). There is a big thread about the windows, and a TSB that the dealer can do to adjust how tight the window seals against the rubber when...
  10. Blew BOTH CV Axles Out at the Same Time

    I hope I didn't come off as critical... I can get wordy. Was just point out that a critical dimension was absent (at least for those of us with/considering spacers). Knowing that spacer was 3" and not the standard <1.5" spacers is great information (and a great comfort to me lol), and I...
  11. Add more storage space and organization to your Bronco with ARB’s Modular Drawer System

    I'm in the final stages of building a 8“ tall aluminum drawer/cargo shelf for my Bronco, and almost cried when I started adding up the costs of aluminum orders I've placed every week or so for the last couple months. Those costs, plus the cost of accessories (slides, tie-downs, welding...
  12. Blew BOTH CV Axles Out at the Same Time

    Sorry for what you had to go through, OP, but do I have the same question. Until now I was under the impression that this incident occured after the major modifications pictured. Clarification in the description would be helpful, and clarification anywhere would help the community determine...
  13. UPDATE: After 2 years of waiting and only a week left, I think I'm going to pass on the Bronco

    Exactly. The Bronco is a great daily driver, if it meets your passenger & load needs. Nasty terrain capabilities are just a cherry on top then. To the OP: I get the concern with rising interest, but as a reservation holder, your price protections are a golden ticket in this market. I didn't...
  14. What offset are you running?

    I have Fuel Vectors with +07 offset and 35x10.5 Kenda RTs. With my Sasquatch flares, I have good tread coverage, but the sidewalls do poke a bit and could sling crud.
  15. SRQ Fabrications Modular Dual Swingout Rear Bumper

    I really like the design that you have, and I'm definitely interested. I do have a couple questions and one request/recommendation, though. First: Do I see additional mounting holes for the spare tire mount, where it can be lowered for smaller diameter tires? Would there also be a provision for...
  16. Doors off gremlins explained, and an inexpensive DIY solution!

    Warranty law allows for the replacement of OEM parts with similar non-oem parts. I would say he has a good argument that he simply replaced a faulty OEM circuit with a functioning one. 😁 On that note, OP, did I miss it or did you find the problem (bent bar, corrosion, etc?) Perhaps it is a...
  17. Badlands w/ sasquach.... leveling kit?

    No prob. I was just thinking that my statement about ride quality of perch collars might be exaggerated. Technically, a preloaded spring "should" be less cushy, but I don't have experience with them to know if it's noticable.
  18. Badlands w/ sasquach.... leveling kit?

    There are two different factors here, and lots of opinions on the subject (whether a perch collar is better than spacer and how much spacer is too much). The collar simply adds preload to the spring, while the spacer pushes your whole spring assembly downward for lift. A preloaded spring will...
  19. Badlands w/ sasquach.... leveling kit?

    That's probably your best option if you want the nose to come up as much as possible without a lift. These leveling kits put the CV joints closer to their limits, so that's probably why manufacturers aren't offering anything taller. The consensus is that they are fine for most, but use caution...
  20. Rock Slide Engineering (RSE) Rail Reliability

    I will be watching the replies... I chose these sliders based on good reviews, but they do seem to be a "love them" v "they're trash" kind of situation. I definitely get the concern.... Even if you didn't "need" steps before, once the sliders are installed, you definitely do need the step...
