We talking pre or post wet belt oil pump?

If only a G550 could be flat towed. Or a Grenadier. But we're stuck with Jeep or Bronco. I've flat towed my LX450 over 20k miles over the years. Throw the transfer case in N and go. SO much easier than dealing with my wife's car on a dolly. (Blue-Ox to custom mount, AirForce One) Hoping this...

Front Runners - (Actually made by CGI outdoors, sometimes you can find them cheaper under the CGI name) I think they are the smallest packing, full size chair. I'm 6' and only 190# so I guess my ass doesn't hang off the seat like ^ Calvin's does!?! The velcro closure on one chair finally came...

My 80 Series just chuckled and mumbled, "cute."

Did your dealer never have an allocation? What do they say? Ordered mine mid August and in a little over a week had the production date and VIN notification from Ford.

Since the OP is in FL, one can only assume this is a pure image thing. Go for the big ones! I'm still shocked at how many people buy "off-road" vehicles in states where there are limited (if any) areas to actually use them off-road. I do 2.5 miles of washboard, airborne capable whoops, loose...

Shocking that an American made product like that would fail so easily. :cool:

Have you looked at the more traditional (and long time makers) roof racks like from Front Runner?

^ I take it from the size, its just a Class D amp?

Does anyone other than Boomers buy Stroppes?

Thanks for the detailed write up. (nervous Land Cruiser guy here waiting on his '25 being built here in a couple weeks)

I'd try joining the Bronco to the Starlink access point, turn the cell service off in your phone and see if you can make a phone call via WiFi, your Bronco acting as the router/gateway. *edit: After some thought and since I haven't got my Bronco yet, you actually can join a wifi network? It's...

From what I've read, that is what I would try. It does meet spec if I recall correctly. And if your not at cornering limit, or even close to, of course you can shift.

There appears to be some strange color combos available with the painted hardtops. And no A pillar grab handles shown, which makes me feel a bit better about the '25 I have on order. I'm sure they didn't add rear air vents for the manuals either.

Over many years with both my 80 Series LC and Power Wagon, I just use a coiled HF airline and a Astro Pneumatic digital inflate/deflate gauge with a velcro strap on the trigger during fill. Both rigs have small pony air tanks, so the compressor catches back up a tad as I go tire to tire. It is...

This is a thread in the 2.3 section...

Isn't there something that can be done to mitigate the oil accumulation in the IC in the first place? :cool:

So there is a least two of you here in this thread that don't understand how the pressure fed bearings in modern ICE engines function. Oil film <> suspended in oil Watch, you might learn something. And hey, if you plan to change vehicles before the warranty is up, or you have very little...

EnviroBro clearly doesn't understand how the main and rod bearings in ICE engines work. It takes 5-8 seconds in most engines to build the full galley pressure to a sufficient level to where there is no longer direct journal to bearing surface contact. Wear occurs every time. So start and...

As a 3rd gen native of Flagstaff, I'd say if you only plan on being in the desert, skip it and have a kinetic solution and *maybe* boards. Go with someone else that is experienced with desert off-road driving and hopefully learn from their experience. Dry wash navigation being a biggie IMHO...
