I feel your pain, those Beadlock bolts are a tedious chore. Iāve done them twice, first time with the stock Goodyears, and a second time when I went to the 37 Yokohamaās. Well worth it in the end.
Bought mine to enjoy, also my daily driver. Picked it up in June and already have 13k on it. I have other vehicles I could drive daily with, but would rather drive the Bronco.
Iām arriving 4/30 as well. Might be up for Schaefer/Potash, it was on my list when I was in Moab last July, but ran out of time, and never got to it.
Looks great! My Bronco is set up very similar to yours. 2dr Base Sasquatch 2.3 7mt. 37ās on beadlocked Sasquatch wheels, JKS max clearance kit in front and DV8 liners in the rear. Differences are you have a 2 inch body lift, I have a 1 inch body lift, and you are running wheel spacers, I am not...
Well, add me to the club. My Bronco usually is kept in a heated garage. Left in the driveway last night. Just started it at -10 F, and the noise is there. 12,700 miles on it.
I went to register, and the only option to pay is PayPal. I no longer have a PayPal account due to some of that companies politics. I sent an email to the Safari, hoping they have another way of accepting payment.
Just tighten the latch more. Mine is super stable, that latch if tightened will never come undone, no real reason to run the pin, just redundancy I guess.
Yes, the first photo I put up shows the magnetic pin in place at the end of the arm, on drivers side. With the pin in that hole, the arm canāt swing. Also the latch secures it.
Looks good! I have the same setup, and love mine. Not sure why youād need the pin in the hole under the tire. The latch holds securely. Hereās a couple shots of mine. You can see the pin on the driver side.
