Like I said before it does not look terrible it just looks like a vehicle in a body shop and was never designed to actually look right with the doors off. Notice how the sides on a jeep is cleanly flush with the front and back and the fender to door jam flows together. Now I am glad they made...
It is nice having the doors off but he is not wrong. Looks more like an afterthought from Ford with the way the exposed door jams look. Does not look really bad but does not look great either.
That would an an awesome set up but you would still want better upper control arms as well as Steering rack and rods but the springs, shocks are ok for now and so are your CVs which is great. I would want to drive it first though to see. Pretty sure the gears are straight cut and can be noisy...
Lifting it by relocating the front diff and control arms lower could help but you also run into the IFS not flexing as much and adding a high CG when it already is tippy going down ledges is not a smart way to do it.
Lol, I thought I was one of the few that noticed that. It was a solid game plan but they ran the fast sections smooth and had planned winch locations on all major obstacles. Did not even try them first but honestly was very smart way to stay together and win. With how identical all drivers...
Jeep has always had competition. FJs, FJ Cruiser H3s. There have been a number of vehicles that have tried, Remains to be seen if after the initial excitement of the Bronco wears off what will happen. The vehicles that have tried have in the end also really kept their value but sales numbers...
General rule is water to the headlights and go in slow like people said. Sadly I am pretty sure the ones that stalled from the water are probably toast but it is just a matter of time. Almost all vehicles I have seen that have done that last a few thousand miles before the cracks in the...
If I am seeing this right the trim looks to be a few inches lower and probably could pull it off and add a thin lip to alllow bigger tires without cutting fenders. Even the trim on the door is not actually the sealing surface. As we know IFS and IRS vehicles run into issues with geometry just...
Yeah, doors off and driving around town it definitely is better. Being that this probably is more a commuter that can do trails rather than a rig like a wrangler or Bronco I bet they did not have it on the body to stay away from looking to much like a bronco :) I really like the blacked out...
Because it is better. You leave the mirrors on the car if you want to look cool driving down the road. You put the mirrors on the door if you want a better off road experience and keep them from getting destroyed by a tree.
Listen to him on the video because this is what I have said from the beginning at why the jeep is a more cost effective trail rig. IfS can be great but it costs money to play. Bronco at a stock Size is great but not as easy to lift and be bullet proof. So many parts have to be replaced to do...
Yeah, had to climb under my gladiator to make sure I did not just miss the damage. You are right and it has a tubed heavy duty mount that bolts onto the frames on each side not just bolted to the crossmember. It was all good. My 2dr is bolted to the crossmember like the bronco. This is a...
I think you need to sit in a jeep and crank on the handles, feel the materials then jump back in the Bronco with that statement and do the same. I have done pullups on my grab handle. dare you to try it. The seats in the bronco are more comfortable for sure. I hope they fix it in a redesign...
3,340 to 4,500 lbs tow rating and put a crumple zone right at the hitch. I seriously do not think so. That would be mind boggling stupid. I can see the crumple zones in the frame picture.
