Recovered 20 vehicles and been recovered 10x so no expert but a little experience - my Factor55 rope gives you more uses before it loses its stretch, has a much tougher sheath protecting the stretchable core, but costs way more, and takes up way more space than a strap.
If you're new enough...
Don't forget the wifi modem, if it's a different module. Even if you don't let it in your network, they might be connecting at McDonald's or something.
Count me in.
@Ford Motor Company you really need to tread lightly here, build great trucks and call it a day. No one I know is asking for...
Went by the dump yesterday to check the weight so I'd know how much I can load in later, and it was funny the lady at the entrance right off the bat "here to weigh your new truck?" cause just by looking she could tell I wasn't exactly hauling yard waste or an old mattress to dump ;)
For those...
UDPATE> after almost 3 weeks of being patient every time I'm told "they're doing their best to look at it) I went down with a little more irritation (and having called another Ford dealer an hour away that *could* look at my truck the next week so I had a backup plan) and lo and behold they got...
I wasn't paying attention to circumstances but I know the other day it did turn mine down as I rolled up to a light - caught me off guard as I hadn't noticed it before. Will try and do some tests as now I'm also curious
anyone looking for shackles for the front, very happy with how close these are to CO:

My first choice would be powdercoat the mounts, but too much time in the shop to take on dismantling the bumper just yet....
Yellow Bronco stickers from...
Sorry to hear your wait is going to be so long, makes the 3 weeks I've endured seem like a cakewalk.... but then again I only got to drive mine for 1 week before it went in so feel good you got some use out of yours instead of just a big loan payment.
If you have any luck with getting points...
Meh I agree with @Docindahouze, just feel bad for them. I've had it happen in my 98 Land Cruiser many times. Not all are like that so keep an open mind when you meet a jeeper, but yeah there can be a real exclusionist attitude for some reason in that crowd.
I hope Bronco crowd follows the...
Interested in the group buy in amber.
Question on the beam throw for amber (unsure if different in white) do they have a cutoff to allow safe usage with oncoming drivers? The photo of a Jeep w/9 at night seems like they don't but hoping these will?
Reference from the PIAA I have on my Land...
Nope. Dealer is down to 2 master techs, and one of them is out with COVID, so they still haven't even looked at it to see what the problem is. Service is extremely apologetic so hard to be mad at them, but really freaking sucks to not even know what needs to be fixed let alone how long that...
Congrats being back on the road! If you get a chance would you mind snapping a pic of the clearance between the half shaft and the housing, now that it's correct? Still wondering if I'm facing what you did or something different...
@74Scoutii - sounding like the front diff might not be serviceable, it's sealed and only can be replaced, which is likely why they are telling you they will just flush it. Heck if I know, but worth watching the 2nd video where Bill talks about Ford's response
original thread here...
Thanks for the continuing updates @74Scoutii, nice to hear things are moving along and not stuck in parts limbo.
Does anyone know if our front differentials are the same as any other Ford units? Would love to broaden the research...
YMMV, but if mine comes back with a similar diagnosis they are unequivocally rebuilding or replacing that differential. (plz plz plz don't come back with a similar diagnosis....) Shavings are deadly to tight tolerance gears, bearings and seals.
Thanks @BigBend1, following.
Will keep this thread alive if it proves to be something else (plz plz plz). I wiped it all down and drove it, leak was clear, then drove some more was milky again and no puddles to explain it. so dropped at the dealer yesterday, I had my Bronco for exactly one...
