That is the rear of the differential no? You would have to be driving in reverse to cause a rock strike against the differential cover.
Or you would have to be high centered where the rock caught the front of your differential, then the bottom, and the weight of the bronco was on the rear diff...
True. I am not necessarily after Sasquatch - but I do want AdvancedTrac at minimum, and preferably the rear locker - so that means OBX, BD, BL. My focus has been OBX Advanced with High and I'm finding a few, but not without a crazy mark up still. BD are there but I don't want MGV. Badlands are...
I would never go to a dealer without confirming that the bronco is available and they will sell it to me at MSRP, and I've called just about every dealership within 500 miles of Columbus, OH
Guess how many dealerships I've visited since I sold mine?
Not a single one.
That was directed at OP and meant in reference to him looking at a Wrangler.
Why buy something so uncomfortable for on-road driving (SFA, death wobble, numb steering, ride quality) if you don't intend to wheel it? Not to mention the interior is cramped and the seats suck.
I can.
What are you buying the Bronco for? If you're buying it to wheel - you would want to be in a Rubicon trim with the 35" tire package which is going to put you at $53k and that has no options on it.
A Base Sasquatch 4-door is $44k.
If you're not buying the Bronco to wheel - why would...
Initial build quality on Ford is total garbage however most issues can be resolved by the owner and a little TLC or some trips to the dealer.
However - I commiserate OP. We pay a significant amount for these vehicles (arguably one of the most expensive decision consumers make - purchasing a...
Honestly I'd probably be in the minority here but a lot of folks were calling for a fixed roof full sized Bronco.
I could see a slot for a upscale Lincoln Mark X (or something playing with off road 4x4) where you get a fixed roof, body colored top with a sun rider soft top that peels the top...
I think 4A is exactly what you thought - somewhat as you stated folks maybe mis-simplified it if you will.
4A relies on dozens of sensors and inputs in the vehicle to determine the torque split between front and rear axles required to provide the best traction in a situation. It makes these...
Look as someone who has actually flipped a car that rolled 3x before coming to stop I can assure you that OP did not roll this bronco 5-6 times.
They just didn't.
