Question for folks, and let's keep it civil here as we're not looking to point blame... Has there been any other documented instances of the 6g fullsize broncos having the lower ball joint nuts back off or fall off? We had a catastrophic failure wheeling this weekend at low speeds on the...
So I've been experimenting with different methods to mount the starlink in the bronco. I've just jammed it up above the rear cross member and the hard top, which works great unless your offroading, then it slides out some times.... and I decided I wanted a different solution.
I picked up the...
My OEM battery was on its way out, so I picked up a 60ah anti-gravity battery to try out. charged it up with my 20 amp lithium charger and slapped it in the bronco almost 2 weeks ago.
what i'm noticing is the smart alternator in this bronco won't charge this battery. i've been driving around...
I ordered this 2022 Bronco Badlands Sasquatch (Lux) on November 5th 2021 and took possession November 10th 2022. I wheeled it completely stock for the entire first year (less installing a winch and bumper for self recovery reasons). Aside from loosing some ground clearance with the extra...
Ok time to ask about the hard top noises I can't pin down. This top has been noisy since I bought this, but it has slowly gotten worse.
I've pulled the front two panels, and the mid-section panel on the 4 door. wrapped the alignment pins with electrical tape, and the hard top is still super...
afternoon all!
i am curious if anyone else has run into a pretty harsh rattle while offroading and/or driving on washboarded dirt roads?
it's been getting slowly worse, so when i got home today from a trip i started checking things under the bronco. skid plates tight, suspension tight...
I was trying to program some TPMS and in doing so, messing with the scan tool I held the unlock button on the bronco to see what frequency it was running on.
all of a sudden my drivers side windows (both front and back seats) roll down 1/2 inch when hitting unlock. The passenger side windows...
While I mull over the new tire size for my bronco here next month, is there anyone running the 11.50 wide recon grappler that nitto offers?
There's a few advantages to a narrower tire, and the weight savings/translated to MPG should be slightly more noticiable than the 12.5 and 13.5...
pure curiosity if anyone has found a way (likely in forscan??) to make the mirror/ditch lights stay on above 6 MPH? I don't think they're on every bronco, but the badlands lux package has them and while not as powerful as aftermarket lights, they are pretty effective when it's pitch black...
Took the bronco up Bunce School road over to Middle Saint Vrain and Coney Flats. I knew going into the day that it would be the ultimate test of the Bronco's OEM skid plates. Went right through with some rock stacking at the hardest obstacle, but holy cow is it time for a lift and bigger...
hey everyone! has anyone experienced their bronco almost feeling like it was floored when downshifting from 3rd to 2nd in low range? (2.7 ecoboost, badlands, sasquatch).
mine does it every single time, like there is a ton of built up pressure in the transmission and when low speed offroading...
I have quite a bit of JCR gear in the bronco, rear shelf, molle panels, and now the overhead molle panel.
I wanted to remove the anytone 578 radio I put in as I really didn't like it as my mobile radio, and swapped in a kenwood D710G I had here at my house. Needed an overhead rack to mount the...
I was doing my usual "1st of the month" vehicle checks and pulled the dip stick on my 2.7. Much to my surprise, it was waaaaaay over the full mark. I wiped off the stick 4 times to confirm i'm not crazy, and it's been parked for 24 hours.
I text this photo to my dealer (who shall remain...
Since picking up this bronco I've been extremely happy with it. Road manners dominate the JLUR I traded in (I have other posts about that).
But, since I picked this up in November, I haven't been able to do much "dry trail" wheeling. All our seasonal access trails are well...closed. But I...
so i went snow bashing for the 2nd time yesterday. and for the 2nd time in the snow i got the "service sta-bar" message.
now that all the wetness has dried off and i am not laying in a puddle. i found a very lose wiring harness that fell off as soon as i touched it:
i plugged back in...
Figured I'd test out the Bronco with a 6x12 cargo trailer for a local scout troop i've been a part of for decades. It's a 22 badsquatch, lux, tow, you get the point. Here's a pic without the Andersen weight distribution hooked up. it doesn't look like it, but the bronco squatted about 1 1/4...
just curious if "police idle" permanently shuts off the 30 minute max idle? often times when out on offroad recoveries, we're doing heavy winching. This puts a strain on your battery. I know you can just go in and toggle it off for that "session" per say, but it auto enables next restart.
if...
So I traded in my JLUR on this 2022 Bronco Badlands Sasquatch. I checked basically every box except leather and the modular bumper.
I have installed a JCR Vanguard bumper and ACC relocation (drops the module like 1 inch or so) and it works perfectly.
I went out of state for Thanksgiving and...
I yanked my 6 gauge wire out of my jeep before I traded it in. I have plans to put a shelf in the back with a DC to DC converter to charge a Lithium Battery. I will have my ARB Twin back there, and distribution for a fridge and ham radio.
Ran the wire through the firewall:
It runs along the...
Finally had some time to tear into my bronco mods a bit! Up first was a JCR Vanguard front bumper with Adaptive Cruise relocation bracket.
And the next day (today) it was time to install the winch.
I wanted it on a 500 amp isolator, and the perfect thing on the bronco to trigger this is...
