Full credit to Tech Support at Fox Racing. They did the calcs and these are Eibach 16" x 3.75" x 500lb in front and 16" x 3.75" x 300lb in rear. Looking forward to rock-crawling it at UBB.
Essence Motorsports in Laguna Hills. EXCELLENT and extremely well priced. I got it done immediately upon delivery 13 months ago and it saved my bacon on multiple overgrown trails.
These pics are when they did it last year. You can see things one year as I just posted my rig in the Builds...
The concept was the ability to tackle So. Cal. trails, Hell's Revenge, Baja Raptor Runs, etc. while also enjoying some luxury glamping. Once complete, we weighed it and confirmed we'd added ~1,500 pounds. Most of it low w/ skid plates, Dana upgrades, etc. but the rear was drooping. The final...
Touche! Well, I'll see your RPG and raise you a Dana44 upfront and Camburg/Fox Elite suspension. In 48 hours we add a Dana 60 and BroncBuster Steering rack, get it race weighed, order and install custom Eibach springs and remove the ugly body-lift. You're correct - body-lifts aren't ideal and...
Ha, ha, ha - we share GREAT taste. I'll see your Green Bronco and raise you a Stealth Wrap and American Adventure Lab interior complete with hidden RedArc system and 2000w inverter for using Induction cooktop, rice cooker, etc..
The Trailrax TRMR is SWEET and even allowed a "trick" way to mount...
I spoke with Ford Bronco Project Manager at Bronco Safari that it is STUPID to reconnect the sway bar at 20mph for Baja Mode. It's useless because Baja Mode wants to be at a minimum of 35 mph (and is insane at 45 mph!). He agrees fully and, even shared how the BRaptor stays disconnected all the...
THANKS EVERYONE! Team effort + humble pie and the problem is solved. Correct guesses - we diagnosed that the light module was causing the interference but the real issue is defective cable. I pulled out another cable and no static. Thanks again! Rewiring tomorrow.
I'll be sharing details in...
Thanks for feedback. I think I may have omitted one key point that I updated in the original post - if I unplug the antenna, it works "perfectly" - I have ~300 feet of range and no static.
I mounted the MXT575 inside on a Mountains2Metal console molle panel and ran the power and antenna...
Has anyone else been experiencing this? Midlands 575 with ghost antenna. We diagnosed it and low and behold:
- Headlights off = perfection.
- Headlights on = crazy loud incessant static.
- Unplug the antenna (it's 50 watt and still works) = perfection
I've tried 4 ferrite cores on the antenna...
FINALLY just shipped on CX. Using the CX automated phone # to track (1-800-235-2352 and input the train car "letters" and train car "numbers" you can get from your dealer). Roughly 2 weeks out!
The ignorance and incompetence of Ford execs at developing real-time Information Systems has finally now only been exceeded by the meltdown at Southwest but they are closely related.
This is not rocket science. BMW started providing real-time tracking and analysis for X5 in 2009 and FedEx...
It's a 4 door. That is CFX3-55IM with insulating cover and Bluetti AC200P (2000 watt hour power system with 2000 watt inverter).
I took pics for American Adventure Lab to confirm room. They have amazing slide out for the fridge already in production. Check-out @Elonmsk on Instagram.
Hope...
I reviewed a bunch of options for the Meanie Greenie - also King, Fabtech, Raflow, Eibach, Bilsteen, Icon, OME, etc. I wanted the Fox Live Valve system from the Bronco but they're not releasing it yet for public. Two great sources of information are Bronbuster and Motorosa YouTube videos. Not...
Going full BEAST mode (essentially a narrow Raptor that can fit down our trails). Fox Racing 2.5 Coilovers with Camburg Engineering UCA providing ~3" of lift. Dana 44 FDU + Spicer Extreme 32mm half shaft set (via BroncBuster). Full stealth wrap, etc., etc.
I'll ask this of both OuterJersey and HeHateMe - have you received? Build date? My Eruption Green Sasquatch Badlands "built" on November 30. No shipping information at all since then. Promised by the 24th. Then on the 23rd moved to "by January 2" but still hasn't shipped and I'm in So. Cal...
ATTENTION: Tomorrow, February 11 we all will find out if we get a Raptor or not!!!! Look in your inbox for a personal email from Ford of whether your hand raise was "accepted" or not.
