  1. Radiator cleaning questions (2.3L)

    Here in Southern OH and central KY, mud and deep-ish water is unavailable on our trails. This type of mud is probably not ab AZ issue. I've never lost an alternator like many with 2.7's have on the same rides, but it's fairly deep. And the fans run and slings it up even higher unfortunately...
  2. Radiator cleaning questions (2.3L)

    On the flats we were running 210 to 215, but on longer climbs we crossed 230 several times and got the "reduced power" message on the dash once. This was on Northeast TN, afternoon temps were in the mid-80's. Manual transmission, and I always to keep the tach at 2k or above on hills, so...
  3. Radiator cleaning questions (2.3L)

    My 2022 2.3L was running too warm on a recent road trip, especially on the uphill climbs. Most of my daily driving is local, 40 mph stuff, and it seems fine at those speeds, short drives. We did some muddy trails this Spring, and I rinsed it well, but probably not well enough. Wondering if...
  4. Warn Wireless Winch Hub Receiver - install questions

    That makes sense. I always figured that you are supposed to pull the cover off when you use the winch, if nothing else to avoid it getting too hot. But it is probably fine for short use periods.
  5. Warn Wireless Winch Hub Receiver - install questions

    My concern also. That cover on the winch has been mud-tested and keeps the connection clean. 😂
  6. Warn Wireless Winch Hub Receiver - install questions

    Thanks, didn't occur to me to leave the connection tucked up under the winch cover. Seems to stay dry under there. Follow-Up question: It looks like we have the same winch cover - the Warn cover with the FP logo. How do you use those bungee cords? The tightening clips are at the back where...
  7. Warn Wireless Winch Hub Receiver - install questions

    Is anyone using the Warn Hub wireless controller and phone app? If so, do you leave it installed and plugged in all the time? The instructions say to strap it to the frame, and leave it connected. But if I only hit trails couple times per month, that seems unnecessary, and a lot of wear and...
  8. Pics of your front bumper and winch set up

    JCR steel bumper with the Warn 10s winch from the FP kit. And the Warn wireless controller. Very sturdy, but heavy.
  9. Ford OEM Winch Kit Discontinued

    SOLD locally. I’m in Cincinnati - I bought this kit last year and ended up with an aftermarket bumper, so only used the winch and L-bracket reinforcements. I have all the rest still in boxes if anyone is looking for the mount and hardware ti use with a winch of your choice. Planning to post...
  10. Leveling Kit for 2-door Badlands (after adding adding winch and bumper)

    Hi all, I have a 2-door Badlands ordered with the steel capable bumper. I recently removed that to add the JCR Vanguard bumper (steel) and Warn Zeon 10-S winch (from the FP kit, but used the winch only). I don't know exactly how much heavier the JCR bumper is, probably 2x the OEM capable...
  11. JCR Vanguard bumper compatible with Ford’s frame rail reinforcement ??

    Just in case anyone else is reading this down the road, thought I’d answer my own question now that I have it installed. 😓 There is a CAC bracket (as labeled in the instructions) that is not compatible as it aligns with the clevis brackets on the OEM bumper. But the inner and outer frame rail...
  12. What did you do TO / WITH your Bronco today? 👨🏻‍🔧🧰🚿🛠

    JCR bumper and Ford Performance (Warn Zeon 10S) winch. With Code4 3x3 combo lights 👍 It was covered in mud the following day!
  13. OEM fog light wiring question

    Black / green = Ground, thanks!
  14. OEM fog light wiring question

    Good idea, but not the most convenient since the harness is unplugged and on my kitchen table where it’s warmer. 😀 I guess I can plug it back into the car long enough to test with the lights switch turned on.
  15. OEM fog light wiring question

    I am in the middle of a bumper replacement, removed the OEM capable bumper with factory fogs, and splicing in some aftermarket LED fog lights in the new bumper. Rather than worrying about finding a compatible plug I am just going to hardwire the new lights into the harness. Just checking my...
  16. JCR Vanguard bumper compatible with Ford’s frame rail reinforcement ??

    I am removing my OEM capable bumper and replacing it with a JCR Vanguard bumper And winch. I have the old bumper removed and in the process of moving the wire harness and parking sensors. I am using the Ford Performance Warn winch kit because it was the most cost-effective option. I realize I...
  17. Winch Shackle questions - brand and finish recommendation (anodized vs bare aluminum)

    Thanks for the good info / suggestions in this thread. I ended up ordering the Agency 6 billet winch shackle in raw finish. I looked closer at the fairlead that came with my Ford winch kit, it's very nice and decided to use it vs. going all-rope. I don't want to splice up a brand new winch...
  18. Winch Shackle questions - brand and finish recommendation (anodized vs bare aluminum)

    Interesting! Do you know if there is another promo code to use, or will choosing AMEX payment method apply the additional 9% discount?
  19. Winch Shackle questions - brand and finish recommendation (anodized vs bare aluminum)

    Had not thought about this option since my kit came with a nice fairlead, like the clean look and nothing sticking out. Probably about the same price as a fancy hook.
