Doesn't fit there, but again, I don't see any reason to not have the shackles mounted on said holes, zero reason to not mount them there and be ready to use.🤷‍♂️

I get what you're saying, but the end of the rope is covered/protected by an additional slip over wrap/cover the whole way to the shackle with little to no exposure. And the winch itself and the rest of the line are covered up by a winch cover...because it's synthetic. Pic was taken without...

Yes, I did the same thing, saved $4000 and did the Sasquatch myself for less than $1200-1500. I even got the fenders to match a Sasquatch. There's hardly $4000 worth of equipment. Keep in mind, some Badlands will have different option packages that don't make it that sizeable a difference...

So, I'm not making fun, but why would you not keep them on? They are like part of the vehicle basically. I went from the shackles on the modular to a JCR winch mount on the modular and moved the shackles out to the JCR, but other than that move, they don't come off. I mean where would I hook...

Yep, that was my thought too, 2 door and manual was the only way to go.

See, I know I get ripped for paying a little over MSRP, BUT, I got exactly what I wanted and I figured there would be further price hikes, interest rate hikes and potential availability issue and I have a 2 door with a manual, so while I paid a little more, it was worth it compared to the...

Can it be operated without taking the skid plate off? Since I have to take it off anyway, I just use the regular plug, but I get the use. I also do every 5K oil changes, oil is still relatively clean at that time, if not the same as it's going in. Later oil changes are much darker and hey...

If you keep the factory modular bumper, I would recommend the JCR bull bar, it's American made and also sits a little lower than the Ford one, meaning it doesn't protrude into the "Bronco" lettering, can't believe Ford couldn't get that right. I have a similar viewpoint as you, I have done...

Yeah, me too, I did install extra supports adn it didn't rattle before, but now it does and I've been wondering what the hell that sound is🤣, maybe I will retrace my steps and check screw and bolt tightness before I complain.

So true, I've had the same thing happen with other products (John Deere, great company, dealer network a little sketchy) that have layers so to speak. Sounds like Ford doesn't know about it, go to another dealer and have them help you. Dealers, many are scumbags and are terrible, but likewise...

Yes, while I live in Florida. We get some cold weather and yes I have grinding sounds too. Here's the update on mine. Took it in on Wednesday, picked it up early Friday, could have Thursday evening if my phone delivered messages properly. Attached is the list of items they need to "fix" the...

WOW, Ford is really doing a poor job here, it's not like the manual transmission is a new thing. Or new to them, geez!

For any that have had their noisy manual transmissions fixed. What did they do to fix it? How long did it take them to get parts? How long were you without your Bronco? And, maybe most important of all, did they fix your issue and are you problem free now?

Yeah, I'm a big Ford fan, but they are screwing the goat hard on this one. You're a multi-billion dollar company, GET YOUR CRAP TOGETHER GEEZ. They have produced a great product to compete with Jeep and hammered Chevy doing the remake of the Blazer, what was Chevy thinking, but because it's a...

I have seen the same chart with all the other fluids too. I think I'd preference published material over one guy in a service dept, but maybe not. Also I wonder if there is a huge difference between 75W85 and 80W90? I can't be huge I would think. Now I don't know what difference the Hypoid...

Right, I understand it is, but the punch in the gut when I pulled up to the dealership when I bought it was reading boldly addressed on the window sticker, "Engine: Made in USA👍, Transmission: Made in China😒", gave me a sinking feeling. And now 6 months into this thing, the noise, which I...

True, but it would be nice if Ford stopped using Chinese junk for their transmissions. I'm taking mine in on Thursday. They said they need a day to diagnose and then will update me. I wonder if they'll be able to get parts in a "timely" manner?

I'd agree with you, but seems Ford can't build enough of anything anymore to satisfy demand, so Tacoma will probably hang around for a little longer.

The Badlands has all the "real" goodies and in stripped form, none of the fluff, I thought the choice was obvious. But to each his/her own.

Well, I agree with you on the Bronco stuff, I have been a Ford fan forever, but the Bronco ease of operation on road and off road toughness so far, I like. My brother in law has a Jeep Rubicon and they have toasted the clutch, no doubt, not great manual drivers but also the operation of the...
