It annoys me, but doesn't interfere with my driving style or needs. My main concern is that the increased use of the starter will wear that (and related systems) out earlier. This has been discussed to the point of tedium on many threads. Posters who claim to be automotive engineers and/or Ford...

Showing the Jeeps how it's done, I see!

I did put Mabett on when I first got my Badlands Sasquatch. Yes, they can be removed--I did replace them, after all--but it wasn't that simple. Turn screws on the RokBlokz are much more convenient. Also, leaving rigid mudflaps on when going over obstacles increases the chances you'll leave them...

Understand that iAG and Mabbet are rigid construction and permanent. You can't take them rockcrawling or onto off-road trails with obstacles--they'll break. You'll need removables, like RokBlokz or Gatorbacks. Some are advertised as flexible enough (the RokBlokz are, slightly) to bend over...

Rokblokz and a full-length step (not half-moons/hoops). But this is Massachusetts. You know the weather is sloppy, and they salt the roads real heavy. If you're in metro Boston, consider a Scrubadub carwash subscription (yeah, it's brushes) with the underwash. For $30/month, you can go through...

Somebody posted, "Don't call it overlanding." That's what I think you're describing--overlanding. Precious few places where you can do that nowadays. I found a few in the Southwest, but I'm not telling where they are. I consider "offroading" to be where an AWD "SUV" (I have a problem with that...

That occurred to me, but if you look at the photo array on the Hooke website you'll see that the rear hatch struts and rear-roof wrap around would interfere with the box door's swing. Either make it smaller so it opens to the (vertical) rear panel, which means reduced lateral space, and so much...

Yes! Another example of 4-door superiority! :clap:

Oops!

Understand and accept that a Bronco can be a very expensive hobby, especially if you get into off-roading.

"In an infinite universe...." But this one may call for a few parallel universes to work out.

It can get expensive. Air-up times get to be a brag point, like we used to have with acceleration back in the days of muscle cars. (Dating myself, there.) If you think you'll be airing up a lot, consider one of the NAPA-based two cylindar compressors. Moreflate, our own TrickyDick (a vendor...

Just what I was was wondering. It seems to me since the bottom panel is hinged to open, you strap stuff onto the molle panel which, I assume, is also hinged. So whatever you have must be strap-able, then you raise that into position and clip it, then raise the solid panel up and lock that. Not...

It seems that there's a paucity of common sense when it comes to dealing with ice...and ICE.

Amber goes below your headlights. We can give you a few ideas. Lots more on other threads. Use the search tool, poke around, have fun. And meet up with others, find out if they're off-roaders, or just like to trick out their truck, see what's right for you.

People have strong opinions and brand loyalties. A lot depends on your budget and your expectations, but understand that if you start off-roading, it can be addictive and more accessories, upgrades, and gear can get awfully expensive. First, check other threads. There's lots of discussion, also...

Scene in Minnesota:

With my wife's ambulatory issues in mind, I tried reversing the full-length steps, installing with the wider portion under the front doors of my 4DR Badlands Sas. I figured it would also protect against front-wheel splash better. Yes, you can do that, but it looked very strange. Somehow it...

I'm another vote for the iAG. 1) They're made in the US. 2) Their customer service is superb. Like most everything, they are subject to wear and tear, and iAG has quickly followed up when I need items, for example, the padding that lines the support bracket that hooks onto the rock rail. Mine...

It's not "where those Cali drivers are," but rather where they're from. The CDLs especially.
