I love mine! I worked nights this summer when it was hot so didn’t do much day time driving, but I could see how they could get toasty in the heat. I’m not a sweaty guy though so I’ve never had breathability issues. Best part about them is that they are super easy to clean. Like, EXTREMELY easy...

After a month wait, the dealership called and said Ford wants to do a sound probe test to pinpoint the issue on my replacement transmission that has started making noise. Back to square 1. I just wish Ford would acknowledge the issue and at least let us know they are working on a fix instead of...

Finally got ahold of my dealer after a month of waiting and they said Ford is giving them a run around again about the noise in my replacement transmission. They want to take the car for a drive with a few sound probes attached to pinpoint the noise. This is the same thing that happened on the...

I hope you’re kidding about not replacing the replacement transmission if it goes bad too. I had my transmission replaced 2 months ago and the sound is back but I’ve gotten radio silence from Ford and my dealer after telling them the new transmission was a dud a month ago. Spent way too much...

Just a follow up for a good laugh to anyone who reads this. I figured out where the ATF came from. I was replacing wheel bearings in a buddy’s car this weekend. Noticed more ATF on the garage floor. Upon further inspection, it’s coming from my floor jack! It’s an old jack from the 80s that I...

Great info. Thanks a bunch!

Weird question. What color is the factory MT fluid? I did work on my girlfriend’s Kia Soul tonight in the garage. Pulled it out of the garage and pulled my bronco back in. I noticed a couple puddles of red fluid (looks exactly like brand new ATF) on the garage floor after pulling the bronco back...

Transmission, engine, transfer case, everything is bone dry underneath that I can see. Can’t find anything wet looking from the top either. No puddles or drips on the garage floor as well. So *maybe* mine is just other traffic? Seems weird that I smell burnt fluid so often though

I have smelled burnt oil sometimes while driving. It’s not constant so I can’t confirm if it’s from the Bronco or other traffic around me. But definitely there (especially since I had my transmission replaced which is odd)

Already did a few days ago

Really hopeful that yours stays quiet! Most people haven’t been too lucky with their replacement

When I bought mine back in July there was no mention of price protection. I had just started working nights at the time and was in a total brain fog at the dealer and forgot to talk about it. (Note to all: make sure you’re very awake when buying pricey things like cars lol!) Luckily I had a...

Thank you! I have a lot of fun restoring old things and keeping the new ones in good shape. I’ve done a couple other bikes and it’s always a good time. Even did a 77 F100 with my dad when I was 16. It was his truck when he was in high school. That’s what I told him I wanted to do for my birthday...

Haha good eye! Here’s the bike. Was a barn find and had been sitting for 10 years. Needed a good cleaning, a few wear item replacements, carbs cleaned, a tune up, and she was good to go! Had to get rid of the white paint too because it was chalky and not in great shape. Didn’t turn out too bad!

I’ve seen some of those and I’ve seen some vinyl wrapped ones. The look sweet! And it’s starting to make sense to add some more protection to the top. Not sure how white would look with my silver though. If I went down that road, I’d probably do a black

Mine still works perfectly too with the noise. BUT, the way I see it, if there is noise that loud, then something is making contact with something that it shouldn’t be, or there is too much clearance somewhere. It can’t be good long term. I think we should all be concerned and keep at Ford until...

That has a TON of character. Super cool and looks great!

Longevity and durability is my main concern. If the internals are poking through the top layer, then that may cause an issue down the road. I’m sure the wait for a new one would be a very long time assuming Ford even acknowledges it and decides to do something

Cool deal! The paint on this one looked like it was originally a hammered silver. Hope yours goes great and hope to see it!

Okay sounds like it’s a common thing. Top works just fine and seems to be just a cosmetic thing so I’ll let it be for now. Haven’t seen any other Broncos up close in person so thanks a bunch for all of the input!
