I have a 2.3/10spd 2 door base non-sas. I added 33” M/Ts the day I picked it up. Has been great to drive and the powertrain/drivetrain seem to handle it very well on-road and in mild off-roading. I’ve been really impressed what can be done with open diffs and a decent set of tires. I wanted my...

@TrailRax - These racks are the ones I keep coming back to. They look great, seem reasonably priced, and have an actual dynamic load capacity - especially with the pak rax. I have a 2 door bronco and a family of four. Works great for our needs (especially with rooftop storage), but I’d hate to...

100% of the time, this applies to the bronco all the time.

Inspired by @Oakpv1 I ordered a set of 265/75r16 Toyo Open Country AT3 as my “winter” set of tires. There was no way the 255/85r16 Falken MTs were going to provide the winter grip needed in the Great Lakes. So far (three days, around town only) the difference is remarkable. Much quieter...

Swapped my winter tires (Toyo Open Country ATIII 265/75r16) and put my summer tires (Falken Wildpeak MT 255/85r16) in storage. Also installed an OEM transfer case skid.

A few update to share after a month-ish of service visits: Ford made right on the issue for some MY2023 Broncos ordered with the modular bumper. Many, like mine were shipped with a plastic “bash plate” instead of metal. Ford corrected this via Customer Satisfaction Program #23B10. Local Lincoln...

I think I’m safe from that. But it’s close. Shadow black for the win! Finding pics of them on here isn’t easy, so it is odd that all photos on this thread are the same color. Thanks for the detailed measurement. Did that already when I was there to pick it up. They looked me in the face and...

Ok! Here’s the deal. I owned my bronco for about a month before someone pulled out at a red light (on Valentine’s Day!) and I plowed into their front quarter panel. More details on that fiasco here. I originally picked up my “repaired” Bronco on Memorial Day weekend. Since then, I have had my...

Honestly, be grateful it’s totaled and move on. Currently waiting for mine to be “fixed” once-and-for-all. This is the fourth time I’ve had it back to the service department after a collision in February. Between parts backorders, service tech incompetence, and Ford’s remarkably poor initial...

👆 One of the pics that convinced me a 2 door base would be just fine for my tastes. Iconic silver was a non-starter for my wife, otherwise I may have gone with it.

Voted for the black steelies, but also want to say that the base silver steelies look really good with iconic silver. If steelies are your thing, consider it. If off roading is in your future, you’ll also get 1/2” more sidewall for any given tire height, compared to the 17” equivalent. Width on...

x2 for running boards if you don’t have them already. I also have the RB20 slim lines and like them a lot. Good size step for me and my boys use them to climb into the back seat of our 2 door. No rocks in the Great Lakes to crawl (mostly) but these will protect the rockers from large debris...

…and required less often.

They clean up nicely too, as you know…

Base non-Sas all the way. Mod bumper, auto, aux were my only options. Price protected after a long wait. Worth the low $30s price I paid. Would have hurt a little paying $40ish, not gonna lie. Once you’re into the $50s+ and straying from the “simple off-roader” end of the spectrum, those new...

Nobody said it was easy. Actually, my point is that it isn’t. But the “preorder” fake-it-til-you-make-it approach with this one is noteworthy.

One thing they haven’t improved upon over the MIC: the MIC exists in reality. I’d never claim the MIC is a great design. But we’re clearly learning that making an improved alternative isn’t as easy as all the sh*t talkers thought 2 years ago.

Same thing where I live. It doesn’t feel like an exaggeration to say that half the 4-door Wranglers I see around my neighborhood are 4xe. This seemed to happen overnight.

Yes. It’s the same handle with a “leather” sleeve over the rubber grip.

My family needs 1.5 cars (wife works within walking distance of home and I’m indefinitely working a hybrid remote/in-person position). So, we have our functional family hauler (2019 Transit Connect) and our winter warrior/summer fun car (2023 Bronco Base 2 door). Bronco replaces a low mileage...
