2023 Big Bend, rear locker, mid package and the dual top option. Updated with modular bumper, winch and replaced the plastic rear bumper with a Fab Four. Neither top is exceptionally heavy but the soft top assembly weighs in at 101.96 pounds. That's more than I like to throw around in an...
So here we are and another thing followed me home. I added the B Pillar Trim Cover for the 4 Door 6G. Very easy to install but no instructions are included with it. There is a video on the Amazon page that gives you an idea how to do it. Of course, I didn't really think about going to the...
There is another.... BigBendBroncos (Facebook) has a group of about 100 members. Might be late notice but if you can make it , give it a try this evening 7/25 at Glory Days 630 PM. One of there members was behind me on 90 and followed me home. He said he like my Bronco and asked me about it...
Well, if it doesn't bother you, then that doesn't bother me that you are used to it. I really don't like the nanny state in my vehicle, especially if it is something I can defeat with little effort or cost. I also didn't like the Pavlov routine to remember to press the button to stop the AS/S...
I have a 23 BB 4 door. Mine came with the dual top option. Hardtop installed and awkard and heavy softtop stuffed in the back with the rear seats folded down. Which was funny because one of my grandsons when with us to "look" at Broncos. Traded in my 2020 Colorado ZR2 Bison diesel. Had the...
Seems like another week and another goody. I noticed that IAG finally released their soft top one hand release kit. As you know, you really need two hands to undo the hatch. This kit converts the latches to a single pull. Very nice. Pretty easy install. IAG has a good video to help with the...
Well, the cost is a thing to be sure. ARB Twin Compressor, Pump up Kit, and Digital Tire Inflator. $1235 Plus I added their Morrflate Quad (to inflate/deflate all 4 tires at once) $205. 4x4TruckLED had a Father's day special so I was able to knock off $155 with free shipping. I've only used...
Well that blows! And that's a good thing! 4x4TruckLED had a pretty good sale, I guess for fathers day. I bought the ARB twin compressor kit along with the KR Off-road engine bay bracket, air pump kit and the ARB Digital Tire Inflator. This was an "easy" install. Estimated to take an hour to...
@BobN - USAF I tested it again and this time it was a bit better. Shoved a pool noodle where it was banging and that helped. It also helped to retighten the rear straps as those were a bit loose. It really looks like it should have some connection straps over the rear seats to the roll bar...
Well, save your money. This sunshade definitely provides solid shade but I find it obnoxiously loud running down the road even at 45 mph. The cheap $40 mesh top was whisper quiet even at 65 mph.
I have a love/hate relationship with the soft top on my 23BB dual top. No instructions on how to do the initial install. I was able to figure it out with some help from the 6G folks. It was necessary to adjust the center brackets on the roll bar. After all that the rear passenger window panel...
This app is a train wreck. While superficially a visual improvement. Too many features are gone or buried. Finding the tire pressure is an adventure in poor design. Do you have an extended warranty? Ford Pass no longer cares. You get alleged mileage remaining but no fuel tank gauge? For a...
I had a 2020 Colorado ZR2 Bison Diesel that I loved. Until it let me down a couple of times. Failure to start and then failure to continue to run under load. The first one might have been user error, living a small light on and not driving it daily. The other was some sensor fault. Anyway...
I replaced my inexpensive mesh sunshade with the Ford canvas bimini top. This is actually made by Bestop but I couldn't find it on their site. I'm glad I was able to buy it at a discount because I'm not so sure it is much better than my cheap one. It is designed to cover the front without a...
Yesterday, I removed the hard top (after the serious storms we had that morning) and installed my soft top. My 23BB came with dual tops. I've done this a few times and it doesn't seem to get any easier (well, except that I use electric winches so I can do it all myself. It still took me at...
You may recall I didn't like the stock rims on the 23 Big Bend. I really liked the look of the Black Diamond Steel Rims. Likely would have bought a Black Diamond if they were available March of 23. LOL.

Well, I have to confess I didn't make it. Thursday I injured my eye somehow. Friday morning I went to the eye doctor. She said that I didn't scratch it but it was inflamed. Not sure how I did it. By the time I was done with that and the weather for Saturday in Perry was not looking ideal, I...
Another day and another toy for my Bronco. This time I went with the Mabett Cargo Sidewall Protector (for the 4 Door). I think these are made of the same stuff that their seat covers are made of...PU "Leather". Not sure how good it looks, other than it looks a lot better at the moment than...
And supposedly in order to get this to work, you need to edit one line in your Bronco's code to activate the amp/speaker. I didn't try the speaker before using Forscan. After Forscan, it worked! But for some reason, I couldn't reconnect or confirm that the update went through. Not very...
