Nice rig!
See link below for the adapter youāll need to covert one of the Roadmaster tow bars to work with the JCR bumper. My JCR bumper has 3/4ā tabs so I used the 035 adapter. Ideally youāll add the LOD bracket to connect your safety cables to, more info to follow on that if I can find an old...
Iāve been thinking about doing this with my full rack. Iād attach the front portion of the rack to the steel hard top mounting points somehow so itd have four attachment points like yours.
Since I wonāt remove the hard top again for months, please report back if your hard top falls to the...
Not sure I understand whatās being suggested. Youāre speaking about a pigtail in the MH correct? Are you suggesting I convert the motorhome to an electronic brake controller that would be used with both the MH and pickup?

Nice old Bronco! My brother had a ā69 and later a ā74. Yeah, Iām going to hook it up, drive to one of the many dirt roads around where I live and try it out. My diesel pickup has engine brakes so thatāll help. If it works out and isnāt too bad Iāll look into a drop in auxiliary brake controller...
One of the only valid arguments Iāve heard against flat towing is when you plan to do some extreme off-roading with your towed vehicle and thereās a high probability you will break something and will need a trailer to get the towed vehicle back to a place where it can be fixed.
Shouldnāt be a problem. Youāll need to invest in tow bars, an auxiliary brake controller and a way to connect the tow bars to the Bronco. Be sure to install a charge line from your pickup to you Bronco, too. That can be done through the seventh pin on the towing wiring harness connections. As...
Thanks for the responses so far!
Thinking out loudā¦. If it werenāt for the fact I need to buy a separate auxiliary brake controller for the Bronco when towing with my pickup, Iād simply hook it up, find a dirt road and experiment to see how bad it gets. But my current brake controller operates...
Thatās what I was thinking mine would look like after 40 to 50 miles. I suppose once it gets to a certain point it canāt get much worse.ā¦. On our long trip we had several 4 - 6 hour drives in rain storms and the highway grime was nearly as bad as your picture above.
I recently completed a 3 month, 5,500 mile motorhome trip, towing the Bronco, through NV, UT, WY, ND, SD, MT and CO and donāt remember seeing 93 anywhere in those states. We stayed on the west side of the Dakotas and maybe thereās more 93 in the Dakotas than I know but none of the MT states have...
Has anyone flat towed their Bronco on a dirt road for 30-60 miles? Road would be a well maintained dirt road that you could drive a Bronco or pickup 40 - 50 MPH on. There would be some washboard but not too bad. If youāve done this, how dirty and dusty did your rig get?
My concern is the level...
Itās a frameless window so itās going to wobble. Like the previous poster said, you gotta have it either all the way up or down on bumpy roads like a washboard dirt road. Itās pretty annoying but I donāt think thereās anyway to get rid of it entirely since were dealing with an unsupported window...
I use the McGard but after watching two different YouTube videos posted on a recent thread about wheels locks I realize how truly worthless they are. Iāll be switching to Advanced Wheel locks soon.
Can I run 0mm offset rims on a stock 2022 2-door Badlands Sasquatch?
The reason Iām asking is because I need new tires now and I also want to get new rims (Method 703). But within 6 months I also plan to get the Icon Stage 8 suspension installed and that requiees a 0mm offset, rather than the...
For 44 years, Iāve never done anything other than pressure wash at a coin operated car wash or with a pressure washer at home. First some soap and then a clean water rinse. I keep the end of the wand 18ā to 24ā away from the engine and donāt blast the area around the spark plug wires. I did...
