Nope, never had a run in with anyone Shady. All the locals were very nice and many took video of our rigs cause they thought it was cool. But I would never take my bronco in mainland Mexico....no way!
ExpeditionXoffroad.com -I just ran across these guys and they seem to cater to Ford owners...
I can't remember how I found them, maybe a sponsored post on Facebook. They mainly take Ford Raptor owners down there for hardcore desert running, this was their first time with Broncos. They are a legit company and worth every penny-they take care of you. If you wanted to go alone on the dirt...
Heres another video that is just the trip in Baja. I used hood mounted GoPros and my drone. It's hard to get a lot of pictures of everybody when we are moving so fast.
I don't know much about suspension stuff myself. I grabbed the first coilovers I could get my hands on several months back when there was a shortage. I have Radflos with a reservoir and adjustment knob on mine but I would think ICONs, Kings, Foxes work good too. But when you get some, go to a...
I'd have to say coilovers were a real plus. There were some broncos that only had the Sasquatch OEM shocks and they had a little trouble getting through the rough bumps and "whoop-dee-do's" at a fast pace. The coilovers really helped with that (the faster you go the smoother the coilovers work)...
It was definitely worth the expense. EXO took care of planning the trails, hotel and meal expense, had a chase crew with mechanics and spare parts. It was top of the line!
The constant running and severe bumps we hit wore the cotter pins down quite a bit but ultimately it was the metal connecting bracket that failed-but I blame it on the extreme driving we did. I disconnected a portion of it but not enough, cause it dug into the CV joint boot and tore it up. I...
Thanks! Its an Elite FS 7 with an external GPS receiver (which I highly recommend). Many of the others were having slow GPS response with their units and would miss turns on the trail because of lag.
I had a great trip from Arkansas to California to meet up with 13 other bronco enthusiast for a 4 day excursion through parts of the Baja California, Mexico peninsula last week. Before I made it to San Diego I ventured through OK, TX, NM, UT, AZ on a roundabout visiting places I knew I'd enjoy...
My front coli over reservoir shocks were installed and they placed the adjustable reservoir in a location where the 35" tire rubs it when only partially turning the wheel. I need some other mounting ideas. Pics please.
