  1. New 2024 Braptor - Broken

    Wow- cheap replacement for $200. The only downside is constant rotation of the CVs and gears on a daily would impact fuel mileage some and I guess there could be higher wear on the CV, but doubt that would be a problem in either case.
  2. Rim break in a Badlands

    Great opportunity to add a spacer/adapter to put the wheels set out a little to protect the body. 1.5" should do the trick and adapt to the F-150/Bronco Raptor bolt pattern for under $200.
  3. UCA won't release ball joint

    I just added collars a week or so ago. I marked the cam bolts for position on the lower arms and pulled those two bolts. No worry about pulling the axle apart and didnt need to touch the ball joints.
  4. ADD- Rear Bumpers- Any Issues?

    ADD bumpers have great aesthetics, I like the minimalist design and I am considering one for my 6G, but at such a price, I want to make sure I won't see any issues. Any real world experience with this being used offroad? Specifically hitting rocks on he trail or more importantly using a snatch...
  5. Talk me INTO our OUT OF... 40s- Raptor- Decision Made

    that would be a good comparison. I listed the 37 BFG and the 38 Nitto above. I measured to the edge of the tread as it reduces effect of eyeballingor over pressure
  6. Talk me INTO our OUT OF... 40s- Raptor- Decision Made

    East Coast- in the mountains, there isn't alot of high speed off road opportunities. I'm an old school rock crawler who can afford nicer toys. This has everything I would want to tackle milder eastern trails and the 40s would have made it un-driveable for me. I will see how it does when it...
  7. Which option to mount twin air ARB Compressor on Bronco Raptor?

    isn’t the twin compressor a higher load unit- meaning it draws higher current? just wondering if this is just too small of a gauge.
  8. Talk me INTO our OUT OF... 40s- Raptor- Decision Made

    Hey- Thanks!! The bumper is from CBI off-road. More known for their Toyota products CBI has some nice stuff. I bought this one used from a member on here. The bumper is a solid 2 piece design, but didn't have any frame stiffeners, so I had to add those. The camera works fine with a simple...
  9. Bumper Pulled Off Bronco

    I believe most winch bumpers provide enough rigidity across the frame to use the winch without any trouble. Classic Broncos were notorius for their frame horns as well- even with just winching. The shock load of a hard pull (even with a Kinetic rope) is just too much for those small welds even...
  10. HOT PEPPER RED Bronco Club

    Upgrades!! Lift, spacers, tires and ProCal!! and for good measure- next to my Father in laws Bronco in my other favorite color!!
  11. When Cyber Orange pops.

    My father in law’s Cyber Orange and my HPR Raptor today- my favorite colors!
  12. Talk me INTO our OUT OF... 40s- Raptor- Decision Made

    So I pulled the trigger… 38s and I’m glad I didn’t go 40s. They would be just too big. The 38s look a lot bigger than I expected even after checking out every Bronco online with 38s. 1.5“ wheel spacers 2.5” FMI front perch collar 2.0” FMI ear perch collar38X13.5 R17 Nitto Trail stock beadlock...
  13. When Cyber Orange pops.

    This was my first color choice, but I was waiting on a Raptor- then my father in law bought a Cyber Orange 4 door and it fell to the bottom of my list. Ended up with Hot Pepper Red and love it. My two favorite colors on a Bronco though.
  14. Talk me INTO our OUT OF... 40s- Raptor- Decision Made

    Tire sizes are like TV sizes... they are a size 'class' and nearly never true to measurement. It is somewhat dependent on wheel width and pressure. It will also measure different if it's mounted on a vehicle (static loaded), just free standing on the wheel or just the tire itself. I know my...
  15. Which option to mount twin air ARB Compressor on Bronco Raptor?

    I recall seeing somewhere on here that someone offered a complete pre-built wiring harness to put the dual compressor in the back...
  16. What did you do TO / WITH your Bronco today? 👨🏻‍🔧🧰🚿🛠

    You are brave... if that had snapped and kicked back, could have been a bad day. It may be the angle of the picture, but looks like it was awfully close to the Bronco.
  17. Which option to mount twin air ARB Compressor on Bronco Raptor?

    I have the DV8 box in my '23 Raptor, but have yet to buy the air compressor. The box is a stupid simple install in the Raptor, all done from the interior side. It still offers some storage in half the box as well. Just waiting on a good sale to pop up on the dual ARB. I don't think I will...
  18. Talk me INTO our OUT OF... 40s- Raptor- Decision Made

    He has ripped the flares off- on trees and earth and probably tires multiple times. They are pretty beat but firmly attached when I met him. The suspension design is not ideal for off-road, but its a multi-use design. Having designed suspensions, there are trade offs to flex and drivability...
  19. Fire Extinguisher & Tested / Approved Electrical Parts Compilation Thread

    Man- this sucks... I'm assuming you didn't have any reinforcement of the factory frame?? I just bought the MetalTech kit to back up my winch bumper. True to the original Bronco as well- the front frame mounts aren't good.
