Before somebody blows me out of the water, I have searched this forum, which I have been a member of for 1.5 years and check regularly. I know (or thought I knew) that the only way to get Advancetrac on BB was to squatch it. But I have the 4.27 gears with the rear locker, and when I switch to...
So let me add a stupid question: an "off-the-shelf" one-piece under dash controller won't work like it would in most trucks? Am I understanding this correctly?
This is interesting... Thanks for the info! It's certainly helpful that you say don't get the overland package. That adds weight and definitely price, so leaving it off is certainly a benefit.
My family and I spent yesterday looking at overland campers. We have a Class A RV currently and have had everything from pop-ups to bumper pulls to Class C's. But I don't have any experience with Taxa, Mission and the like.
My wife and I were highly impressed with the build quality of the Taxa...
Good to know. Question: does yours drip a bit when you first close it? Mine does, and it freaks me out a little bit. Gets me thinking that it isn't closed all the way. I wiped it a few times, and so far it seems ok. Just wondering if you had the same experience.
The factory plug isn't awful. But they need to be replaced semi-regularly. And they make a mess when you first open them. With this plug? You just screw it in and the valve opens. As said above, a section of cheap 1/2 inch tubing makes for zero mess.
So I recently bought this drain plug:
Today, I went out to change my oil and install the plug. All went smoothly until I poured in the new oil...and realized the valve was OPEN. It came with no instructions, and like an idiot I assumed threads exposed meant open and threads in meant closed...
Not sure about the validity of this fear. My understanding is the failures happen early or not at all. I have 20,000 on mine without a hiccup. *knocks on every wood surface available*
My thoughts exactly. You "can" span nearly any distance with the right materials. Drop a steel beam in there and you'll never have any sag.
Seriously though, they make laminated beams and wooden i-beams for just such applications. Of course, in today's economy, your first purchase would need to...
As one of the first to install a Bestop Bimini sunshade, I have had nearly a year to enjoy mine. As I recently updated here, I lost a part that was not essential to the operation and enjoyment of the shade (it just rattled a bit, and I would have fixed that with 10 minutes of redneck ingenuity)...
I'm not rationalizing anything. I--and most of the Bronco owners--have had satisfactory experiences. This is an echo chamber for those who have issues. I do believe there are a laundry list of kinks to work out. I do believe Ford could handle this better. I do love my Bronco and choose not to...

If they're like my kids, it's exactly the opposite. Getting stuck would be the fun part! And misquitos...well, that's the price you pay for being outside lol.
This is a different issue. Of course the tops suffered from design/production flaws and should have been better. But the answer isn't "Shoulda copied Jeep." They had to start from the ground up. It just came at the worst time in the history of modern production.
