Unfortunately mine’s not off at the moment. I’m leaving shortly for a weekend trip to New River Gorge NP in WV, or I’d take mine off and check for ya.

That’s the way mine looks before I tighten it down. Mine has two bolts on each side. (‘24)

2024 Wildtrak (16 mo) with 25K. Just completed a 3 wk 7500mi trip through the western and southwestern states.

Looks great! Regarding the seat posts, I was able to just drop the seat posts down into the tube and not actually pull the seats. In that position, the seats are actually up against the roll bar, and since I have the fork mounts bolted to that lid, I don’t think they’d go far in anything but...

Bronco Knoll - April 2025

Sure. The mounting holes in the Saris rack (and also the position of the fork mounts) are 14" from the gate opening. This is what I measured so that the rear window will shut with no danger of hitting the handlebars or the computer mount on the bike when closing with a few inches to spare...

Can’t hear the wind noise over the tire noise. ‘24 Wildtrak with stock Goodyears. 25k miles. Figure if I drive it long enough, I won’t be hearing much of anything.

Cinnamon Pass - Silverton, CO

Yes, part of the preinstalled wiring harness. The trailer tow package is now a dealer installed option even if ordered ‘factory installed’ (as you may know). They take this box off when they install the hitch receiver. They gave this loose piece and the bolts to me after they put on the receiver.

Here’s my solution…small piece of foam ‘backer rod’ under the rear switches. Stays in well. Can still open them if I want to.

It’s interesting to me that even 4A itself seems to have different modes, electronically. On the highway in Normal mode, power is only to the rear wheels unless accelerating or if needed in the front, but in Slippery mode, power is showing equally to all 4 wheels continuously, even thought the...

Thule box on Yakima HD rack. I could have mounted the Thule box directly to the OEM rack but needed the extra width for bikes and traction boards. This did affect our Sirius reception a bit.

Agree. That was my gut feeling at the time and I let it go. Will resume 5 tire rotations and not be concerned about the small differences in wear

Thanks! And 4A (sport mode for example) shouldn’t be an issue either, as it’s different tech than AWD, correct?

I’m sorry, I don’t recall. The 4 on the ground only had 5k more miles than the spare though.

With previous ‘AWD’ SUVs, I was always told it was not recommended to replace just one damaged tire (even the same model) due to the unequal tread wear and the differences in tire circumference and the strain that puts on the drivetrain. I took my Bronco into a dealer for the 10K oil change and...

I’ve only done Moab in Sept of ‘24, and used it to launch a 3-wk trip off-road/cycling trip in the west. https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/kicked-off-3wk-5800mi-bronco-trek-with-the-moab-off-roadeo-ut-nv-ca-co.103049/ What I underestimated was how valuable it was to spend at least a few...

If you have a mount on the dash for a phone or camera to record video, you won’t regret it. Have fun!

I use a Quad Lock mount and phone case with my iPhone15 Pro. Was really pleased on our recent trip. Minimal setup, quick mount/dismount for the phone and image stabilization of the iphone made the video easy to watch. Glare wasn’t an issue but really had to make sure the windshield was clean...

Yakima HD rack on the OEM roof rack to gain a little width, Thule cargo box, traction boards and two Yakima bike mounts. Worked well.
