No the stock bracket needs removed and the RC bracket installed. This is so the new muffler can sit higher in the undercarriage. Got it all installed and looks good. Although there was a slight smell in the cabin for the first few hours. I assume just some residue burning off.
Purchased and installed a new Performance Exhaust | Dual Outlet | Ford Bronco 4WD (2021-2024) from Rough Country. Good product but there's a step where I need to remove a OEM bracket for one of the muffler mounts and replace with one Rough Country provides. I cannot for the life of me get the...
Just noticed a strange chirping noise under the hood when in park. Had my bronco two years and never heard it before. Here’s a video. Listen closely at the beginning and end. The chirps are about 30 seconds apart.
Anyone know what this is?
Thanks for posting. I have this same exact issue. Only on cold start and goes away maybe 5 minutes after. I took it into the stealership and they could not hear it which would make sense since my Bronco was warmed up.
Anyways, I don't know what else can be done about this. I found a great...
Took it in and they claim no issues could be found. I did see several techs and the service manager look pretty thoroughly under my bronco when it was being serviced. So I guess it’s ok and hope nothing explodes down the road
No mine wasn’t so much a whine more than a rattle. Mine was mainly noticeable on cold start. Took to dealership and they claimed nothing could be found.
Well folks, I went to the dealership today. I showed the service tech the video and he could hear the rattle. I saw them take it in back and saw see several technicians including the manager look at everything thoroughly. Reviewed ECM for codes, etc. Nothing found. They did say that there isn't...
Right around second 16 it starts and then on and off until the end. I hope it’s a big nothing. After the other cam phaser videos I’ve seen I agree mine doesn’t sound quite like that!
Here is video / sound of the issue. Rattles maybe 5 seconds into idle from a cold start then continues on and off. Again this is just something that started maybe last week?

Sounds like the same exact issue I have as well. It was something I recently heard as "new" so getting it checked that it's not something more than just normal noise. Will posted back on findings!
Yes I have to say that my rattle is not as loud as those with the cam phaser issue - at least when comparing videos of the cam phaser to my rattle. I HOPE its not cam phaser and its just wastegate but who knows. I can say the rattle I have started maybe a week ago - I am at 11K miles.
Thanks !
Do you know if the dealership ever replaces that part as a result of this or does it depend? I do get occasional delay from the turbos although I've read that too can be normal but also could be a result of the wastegate issue.
Started hearing a rattle under the engine lately after start up. Seems to go away after driving but can hear it when letting off gas. No CEL or any change in vehicle performance. I researched on here and I’ve read everything from cam phasers to normal. Taking into the dealer on Saturday to see...
Thanks all. I had asked this question as I had a bad experience with another franchised tire company (not discount tire) with my previous vehicle. After new tires were put on I had a wobble in my drive, a few rims were scratched from the tools used to mount the tires, stem caps missing. I went...
