  1. Help Getting Raptor Out of Park and Releasing Parking Brake Manually

    Got to add a couple of points to this thread. 1= what would you do with the OP's situation if there was no way to get under the bronco to disconnect anything? Looks like one would have a big problem. One of my favorite you tube vids. is the offroad recovery guy's. Whether they are tow truck or...
  2. Help Getting Raptor Out of Park and Releasing Parking Brake Manually

    My way of releasing the parking brake ??? Don't set the stupid thing in the first place. On the trans in park, do as other's have said. As to ford and all their electronic stuff, don't ya just love it.
  3. Waiting to hear if this beauty is totaled

    Went through similar damage on my bronco on the driver side. That damage looks almost like mine did. Because the cowl was bent up and had to be replaced, the entire dash, windshield ,seats and all the dash wiring had to be removed then put back after repairs. Total repair cost was $18K so...
  4. Fake engine sound

    Wonder if ford can come up with a way to make my 2cyl. 4wheeler sound like a mustang GT??
  5. Drove about 30-35 miles in Slippery Mode (4H) in heavy rain.

    Just in my opinion put tape on that, in my opinion too, on that goofy mode thingy then use 2wh. When you get into a situation where your 2wh. is starting to spin then use 4hi or 4l. Your bronco will be much simpler to drive and much more enjoyable too.
  6. Anyone added a limited slip differential?

    I wouldn't over think open diff's. I have a similar setup as you and for rain you would gain very little. In snow you can spin yourself sideways real quick. With an open diff, in rain or snow only one wheel will spin and the other will maintain traction for the most part with the road. Open...
  7. Most UNDERUSED mods on Broncos? Go!

    There no unused mods on my bronco, ditch lights , driving lights, fog lights used every time I hit the woods which is every chance I get. The only mod that's not permanent is my tablet with X-on maps on it. I have several other mods but bottom line if they are just for looks they won't be on...
  8. Using 4A when raining?

    This is a misunderstanding in general about 4w drive rigs whether al wheel drive or 4w drive. Be it a crossover with full time al wheel, selectable al or 4w, it's the driver who controls the vehicle and how he controls it be it rain snow or ice. I don't care what drive system you have, going too...
  9. Totaled?

    Repair costs are outrageous these days. My bronco got wrecked last June, took out the left front fender, bumper grill, headlight and all the shutters and cowl, air bags were ok. Parts and labor totaled up to $12K. Then it had to go to the ford dealer to remove the dash and all the wiring as the...
  10. What did you do TO / WITH your Bronco today? 👨🏻‍🔧🧰🚿🛠

    What did I do with my bronco today ??? Picked it up from the body shop where it's been for the last 5 and a half months.
  11. What's your most under-used feature?

    Not just one for me but several. Turn assist useless, all those silly driving modes, slippery, mud, snow etc. all I need is 2hi. 4h. and 4l.
  12. 4A issues. ford says this is normal?

    Yes it has the advanced 4x4 but it's only active in 4 high, turns off in 4 low. Pretty sure it will activate in most all the modes mud, slippery, snow etc. but I never use those dumb to me modes, last thing I need is the computer telling me how to drive. When I need 4 high or 4 low I push the...
  13. 4A issues. ford says this is normal?

    Sure glad my bronco doesn't have the all-wheel drive one less issue to deal with LOL.
  14. The My Bronco DAMAGE / BATTLE SCARS Thread -- Post Yours Up

    Had my left front wiped out by a f450. Took out fender, bumper, fender mounting apron, grill, headlight. Repair shop had to have ford dealer shop remove the entire dash and wiring to repair fire wall and cowl, $12,200.00 damage. This happened first wk. of June. talked to the repair shop recently...
  15. What's inside of a bronco led headlight

    after a head on hit which took out the bumper , left front fender , grill assembly and headlight I pulled out what remained of the headlight. My opinion of the headlight is, ford needs to go back to the drawing board, way too complicated contraption that in a side by side comparison to an old...
  16. Engine overheating

    Time to update one of my attempts to keep engine temps down when trail running. I did an aux pusher fan install, it took several mods to the grill area plus the fan shroud. The fan I used is a Flex-a-Lite 16" one rated at 2,600 cfm. First time out with it, up a steep forest service road that...
  17. Anyone running these fog lights?

    Me I did the un thinkable and put on amazon fog lights, NOT dot approved and they are outstanding. They have a extremely good cutoff. Most all if not all major manufactures fogs are dot approved and don't work any better than low beams but do cost a butt load of money.
  18. Engine overheating

    I started a thread a while back on this subject which ultimately lead to a diy solution. After a bunch of research the following is my plans to doin the following order. 1= remove the trans heat exchanger which really does nothing on it's own to keep trans temps down. It will be replaced with...
  19. What rig / vehicle did you give up to get your Bronco?

    My wife's 2017 explorer really good rig, great for grand kids and driving in snow on the highway. off road, forget it. She died 3yrs. ago and I never had any real use for it.
  20. People flashing their brights

    My bronc is lifted and not getting any flashes, but a number of yrs. ago when I worked a swing shift there was this guy who would turn on his high beams just before he past by. The same guy in the same truck every night, I flashed back at him several times but he just kept on doing it. Not...
