So I just rotated tires, unfortunately never used the spare in the rotation. I am about half way through the thread on the factory tires I believe. I found the front left tire has big chunk in a tread block that looks like it’s now exposing some radial threads.
Do you think this is safe?
If...
I must have missed the poll on the Bronco forums for feedback. I would expect more soft top owners are interested in this because it’s easier to open up and have a full cover. I do not take off my hardtop for a cover, I have rack rails and they get in the way(different cross bar mount points...
I ordered the JTops Mesh to use with my Bestop Trektop and it was a major fail, didn’t line up and @JTopsUSA took it as a return.
I am hoping they consider that many of us don’t use the Bronco softop. If it doesn’t work it’s a hard pass for me
So just to confirm, this will not work the Bestop Trektop slant back softop, nor will it work with a stock 4dr hardtop. Just the Bronco stock 4dr softop?
I agree, the TSBs are there for service technicians and owners who want to help service teams quickly diagnose and solve an issue identified, whereas recalls are issued for safety reasons
This makes be wonder what impact the hidden winch mounts are going to have. The Lobo uses the two dif mount bolts to secure the plate. Certainly Ford would deny a warranty repair is my guess
I saw the LOD instructions and agree it is not ideal with the drilling. But I did read they work well with JKS so that is a plus.
I heard the ADD install required modification and their instructions were not great. I have ADD rear bumper and have experienced their support and poor install...
Curious if anyone knows with the RC and Lobo Hidden Winch mounts, they are using skid plate mount points on the frame I believe, is there any need for having the frame horns reinforced in this scenario?
Here are some photo’s from Lobo’s, they are using skid plate mount points as well as front...
I would agree that traction boards may not work depending on how stuck you are, if you are in snow and high centered already, you are not getting out with traction boards. I would have multiple recovery options available, and if you don’t have a recovery snatch cable or a winch, go with friends...

Thanks. Looked just now and not a drop came out, assuming I wouldn’t see anything with it sitting anyhow will have to get some miles on it.
As far as lift goes from the stock SAS height, I am probably 3 inches lifted with Icons. Assuming you mean this lower plug?
