Sorry, I think you are referring to ball joint angle, not axle shaft CV joint angle. Any lift, no matter how the lift is constructed, will raise the vehicle and will increase the axle CV joint angle at full suspension droop. Plus, the axle CV joint needs enough available movement to also allow...
Well, I've decided to keep my main Jeep, did already sell two of the others. And I just bought this. Won't need the Bronco, I'll decide for sure when it gets here....maybe, maybe not.
Yeah, this place is full of it. Makes me wonder do I really want to get to know and go wheeling with a bunch of whiny new Bronco people. :rolleyes: :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
I figure for 30-40 bucks a year I can try them both if I'm not totally happy with onX. Some friends I go out with have Gaia so we'll be able to compare.
There is not enough electric producing infrastructure to go all EV's. Not going to happen because it CAN'T happen. It's all talk and bullshit. The ONLY way to go all EV is to dramatically expand nuclear, which based on tremendously misinformed public opinion is also not going to happen any time...
I went ahead and got onX and have it on my laptop and tablet. Haven't used it yet to navigate, but I'm using it to explore potential trails for a UT trip the end of Feb. I like the featured trails feature, similar to Altrails.com. Between the two it is really helping to research for a trip...
I'm missing something here. If it's a Ford program, then if there were no dealers Ford would still do the same thing, 100%. With dealers it says they can do it or not. So, how do you figure it would be better if there were no dealers and you had to buy straight from Ford?
It may not give better mileage, and most likely won't give better mileage to have 33's and the 3.73 ratio. A lower rpm doesn't guarantee better mileage since mileage is also based on load, meaning throttle pressure. In the real world, especially with a 10 spd transmission, the trans will just go...
Based on many many years of Jeep and off road experience, it is pretty universal to get better mileage with the gear ratio that matches the tire size. I've seen many cases of adding large tires, mileage drops, then change gears and mileage comes back up, obviously not to stock levels but better...
Either bolting or welding works. Welding is permanent, and does effect the strength of the original material though it would likely never be close to enough to matter. Bolting doesn't effect the strength at all, partly because the bolt is filling the hole and the bolt tension should make it...
Ford started using high strength steel in frames back when I still worked there over 11 years ago. They made a big deal out of how strong their frames were. Even had a stress test at the new product sales training for F series. They had four frames set up in a jig with a long lever arm attached...
We all can make a hundred guesses, and they will all be guesses. Hope they can find what it is and not some intermittent thing that doesn't show itself while they have it.
Last month at our annual Goatfest event out in Johnson Valley one of my friends had just bought a TJ and didn't think to check the date on the tires. They were like 12 yrs old and he blew 3 of them on the trail, I think they ran Clawhammer. He had to use spares from other Jeeps, and finished the...
Yeah, just to agree with what has already been posted. It has been conclusively shown that a good paper filter flows slightly more then an oiled cotton filter, and an oiled filter can mess with modern engine control air metering sensors. Oiled cotton filters are a no go, no point whatsoever in a...
Yes on Sasquatch, unless it's a Badlands, which already has everything except the wheels, 35" tires, and the 4.70 diff gears. If you don't need 35's a stock Badlands is kick ass. If you're OK with 35's and 4.46 gears then a leveling kit will work on a Badlands without Sasquatch. The 33" tire is...
Why only welding? Virtually no one in a Jeep welds the sliders on, they are nearly all bolted. Nothing wrong with drilling and bolting to the frame. And yes, still lots of room in the aftermarket for Bronco accessories.
20's will scream mall crawler, if that's the more aggressive look you're going for. :giggle:
Technically, the spare can be a bit of different size than the tires on the ground. Wouldn't do it in 4A for very long. And, it doesn't matter for rotating the tires because with radial tires the...
The heat affected zone on a weld, especially high strength steel like in a Ford frame, weakens the frame more then drilling a few holes. So, not better to weld. Body mounted sliders are OK, like the stock Bronco sliders, if they don't stick out (like the stock sliders) and only take a hit from...
