Yes you are correct. Maybe 10-15 degrees past 90 is all it will go before it would smash into the tail light and completely crush it. I have the M2M tailgate limiter in the mail! Until then I'll just have to be careful.

ADD, LOD, homemade.

1. Glad you are OK!! 2. You are exactly right at 29:17, recoveries need to be carefully assessed in a slow and methodical manner (as you mentioned in your post, like our Aussie friends). 3. This shows the need for people that go wheeling where there is no cell service (90+% of Alberta...

This guy is the walking (driving) definition of "Fuck around, find out". Thankfully he hit a power pole and not a person.

Damn dude, this hits hard for me. Enjoy the heck out of the Bronco.

Rigged up a Maxtrax mount using the Badass Tents spare tire holder, and some hardware from Home Depot. No more carrying these around the back anymore!

I bought the Badass Tents tire mounting system, the inner-holes of their mount intentionally lines up with the inner cavities of MaxTrax. Drilling holes in the MaxTrax to line up with the holes of BATents mount, adding some hardware from the local store and some aluminum standoffs + Star hand...

OOOOKKKKKK. So I have to rescind my previous statement. I just took it for a car wash and the front does have significant rusting started. I'll need to grind it off and coat it with something.

There are 2 small spots on my RC winch Mount starting to show rust, but that's it which I'm surprised about. Hardly able to see unless you're looking for it. Nothing a little abrasive and paint can't fix in the spring. I thought it would be worse considering the amount of salt they use on our...

I like the gas carrier/tailgate reinforcement combo. Can you share where it's from?

I'm in Canada and am through TD Meloche Monnex. Not sure if TD insurance is offered in the States.

That's correct. Insurance premiums might go up (depending on provider, everyone's individual policies small-print details), but it would be covered just like any at-fault accident.

I looked into this, and the coverage is very much superficial. If you're going to damage anything offroading, the paint is likely to be damaged and the dent larger than what can be repaired using the paintless dent repair system. From the Brochure: What is not covered by DentCARE?**  Dents...

I called my insurance asking specifically about offroading, and they said they didn't have a specific off-road package, and that it (an accident) would simply be labeled as an at-fault accident. Like backing into a lamp post while in a parking lot, except replace parking lot with forest and lamp...

LOL oh Lord I'd love to see an "All Wish.com Bronco Build" !!

Yah that's exactly right - the LOD's by themselves are a bandaid fix - but definitely better than nothing!! Now this is a whopper of a thread to read: https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/damage-while-using-winch-on-improperly-installed-rough-country-high-mount.70698/ But essentially one of...

I've seen this type of thing plenty of times in the construction world. Honestly so many times it's basically a recipe now. Our company has been on the end of the phone multiple times when these company's phone us, and tell us they can't deliver on their promise. So we have to sue them for...

I've replaced plenty of windows I never thought were chipped. The dirty little secret ones - like you described - usually start from a chip in the very edge of the window you don't see. And it just sits there, waiting for the prime opportunity to strike. And then when you least expect it......BAM!!

Do you know if those Maxtrax mounts work on the OEM roof rack rails?

ADD or LOD have the same brackets. I paid a local welder to add gussets. Tricky's came with gussets and under-mount attachments (provided support for the winch wanting to pivot as the moment-arm of the winch is ~8" above center for the high mount cases, wanting to rotate the assembly due to, up...
