  1. Are we stuck with the Ford battery?

    I have been working with my solar for charging when in remote wilderness to keep my refrigerator running, This is the first time I have taken a good look at the battery in my Bronco. The negative post looks like it would work on another battery but I am not sure the positive post is compatible...
  2. Eibach coil over suspension advice needed for my application

    I have looked through many threads and have not found a good answer to my specific needs. I have a 24 Badlands non-SAS. My off-roading varies from light to more than moderate but not extreme (moderate rock crawling is usually needed in some parts of the trips). I spend up to 4 weeks in...
  3. Gear Range in IPC in Forscan

    Today I was scanning through the IPC module (not "As Built"). I just wanted to see what was enabled and disabled. I came across the line "Gear Range". It listed 6R. I opened the choices and the only other choice was 10R. Since the Bronco has a 10 speed transmission it seems the Gear Range...
  4. Seat belt minder disable

    I have tried everything I could find about disabling the seat belt minder. I am not one to not use a seat belt. In fact, I started using a seat belt all the time in 1973. I just like to start up the engine and let it warm up a little while I am fastening my seat belt. That chime just annoys...
  5. Power port on always on fix

    I am pretty sure I have been able to turn the power port in the rear to the "always on" mode. I did it in FORScan in the BdyCM module under "As Built" 726-57-01. The fix was xxxx-00xx-xxxx. Originally it would time out after exiting the vehicle or turning the engine off. I tried a few...
  6. Fake engine sound disable

    That fake engine sound inside was one of the most annoying features of my Bronco. I was able to eliminate it with FORScan in the "As Built" ACM module under 727-01-01. The fix is xxxx-xxxx-0xxx. 1 is ESE on and 0 is ESE off. I can still barely hear the actual exhaust and that is what I want.
  7. Bypass micron filter install?

    I want to install a micron bypass filter on a 2.7L Ecoboost. Probably an AMSOIL. I have been looking at the engine compartment and it doesn't have much room for anything. Plus, I can't figure out where to access oil supply and return. I have done this before on three different vehicles with...
  8. Unknown function on a seat lever

    I have manual seat adjustments and there is a lever between the lumbar dial and seat back adjustment angle lever that I cannot find what it is used for. Nothing that I can find about it is noted in the owner's manual. It can be rotated up and down, but seems to lock after one cycle in either...
  9. Hood stops

    I noticed the hood stops that hold the position of the hood when closed are free rotating. Is this normal? It seems that can result in the adjustment up and down would be easily go out of proper adjustment. On my 2002 Ranger they are hard to turn and one time I found they had moved some on a...
  10. Exhaust sound

    I have only had my 24 Badlands a little over a week and find the exhaust is pretty quite until I step on it some. I know Ford has added artificial interior exhaust sound to some of their vehicles. Is Bronco one that has that? I hope not, I want to hear the real exhaust note not some artificial...
  11. Grill removal

    I want to have my grill coated with Line-X or equivalent. I think it is best I remove the grill to get it coated. Is there anything I should be aware of before I start tearing things apart to remove it? I have not looked at it very hard yet to get an idea of how difficult it is to remove. I...
  12. Just bought a 24 Badlands non SAS for a great deal

    I decided I wanted a 24 Bronco because Cactus Gray was being dropped in 25. It is not that I like Cactus Gray so much but it is the one I like best out of the three non metallic colors. Since it is going to spend a lot of time off-road, I want something that is easy to touch up the rock...
  13. No tow package on local dealer inventory

    I have been looking at various dealer's inventory on 2024 Badlands models. None of them have tow packages. I know it is not a problem to install a receiver, but how difficult is to get the wiring done. Do all Broncos have the wiring in place and just need to have the trailer brake controller...
  14. Air bag options as helper air springs?

    I have done some searching online for helper air bags for the Bronco to help with heavy gear and supplies on long trips in remote wilderness. I can't find anyhting for the Bronco. I found an old thread that discussed it a little but but they apparently didn't find anything either. Does...
  15. New to Bronco

    I have been doing off-road adventures in remote wilderness areas since 1977. I started with a 1973 FJ55 Landcruiser and eventually graduated to an 89 Ranger STX then a 2002 Ranger FX4 (both Rangers with a Wildernest camper). I am now ready to make my next upgrade. I originally wanted a 2025...
