Snatch block does not change the line loading.

Ill take it.

This is nice too. I would probably run a loop instead of the hook on the line end. Soft shackle systems are safer in that respect. This mount plate looks very beefy though.

My concern with these is the reduction in approach angle. My front skid already has many significant hits. I think this chin bulge would just cause significantly issues. I have also gotten stuck the most against steep ledges that would make this unusable. The alternative is a high mount and...

This is my thoughts too. Probably also oversize the drilled holes through the plastic and put sleeves them/use washer stack. Then some high strength washers on the plate. It really seems like a pretty good setup. I also think people oversize their winches all the time. If you are...

With these events, you bring your own Bronco. I am unsure on price.

I just spent last weekend at Barnwell and had a great time. What were the trails you enjoyed the most? How did they split up different difficulty levels and capabilities?

I really look forward to the release of the BP-51 systems. That is the setup I am waiting for. Hopefully it will be released this year.

My Z has the ecu tuning to turn the fans on earlier to help with the heat soak from the turbo. That is a good point about the performance tune. Maybe @LethalPerformance @lethaljake or @Mitch Panda Motorworks

It was in the 50s outside and we did not need it. We later realized that keeping AC on dropped the oil and trans temps ~20 degrees because it caused the fans to kick on so that is what we did. Sometimes it seems silly to have the ac blowing when its cold and the doors and top are all off.

I do not want a cooler thermostat. Not good for daily driving to keep it that cool. That is good to know. That is reassuring. It sounds like I am just overthinking it a bit. I do not want to make any changes to the Bronco's control logic. If simply running a second turn on for the fan...

210-211. Might have seen 212 once with the ac off. Once the ac was on it never got close to that. I have been through the endless oil discussions with my Z and it is truly endless, it currently gets M1 euro 0-40 but i would rather not go down that rabbithole with the Bronco. With the...

I agree, I think my concern is more that I was seeing these temps at 50/60 ambient temps and I am worried when it is 110 outside. 220 isnt necessarily alarming, but with the motorcraft syn blend, I really would rather not push it to the 240s+ if it was avoidable. Has anyone else seen...

Well that is worse news. Definitly complicates things a bit. It *seems* that the fans may be coolant based instead of oil/trans temp based. This would explain why turning on the fans with ac would also cool the oil/trans. Is there a good diagram showing these coolant and oil/trans fluid...

Thank you for finding that. I tried and could not find a diagram of the fans. I am not surprised that it is PCM controlled outside of the relay. Or determine if the VE203 wire is an analog voltage signal from the PCM or a CanBus data signal to the fan controller. If its through the PCM...

You can put a MLV sheets in side the doors and panels to make them close more quietly and sound much less tinny. You would want to get it on the outer skin, inner skin, and the door card itself if possible.

So I recently spent a day doing a bunch of low speed crawling at Barnwell Mountain, and I found that when the AC was off the oil and trans temps would get pretty hot. 225 oil and 210+ for the trans temps. When I kicked the AC on (and forced the fans onto low speed) the temps would come back...

anyone compared travel on these vs stock arms with stock suspension?

Red dirt looks good on CG. There are too may super clean Broncos in this thread.

Thankfully the weather was fantastic for us, lows in the 40s and highs in the low 70s. Probably close to the point now that I would probably want some AC at night. I would probably remove the flares on a Raptor before hitting Barnwell. There are areas that are not wide fender friendly on...
