  1. Street and Off-road combo

    Method Bead Grip 703. 17x8.5 ~ 27lbs The combination wheel/tire is rather light. Wheels saved weight (from factory bead lock ~34lbs). Tires are extremely light for 37 (load D) ~70lbs. Really is the perfect tire/wheel for the Bronco. We also have them on our Raptor. It gets slightly less mpg...
  2. Street and Off-road combo

    I had 2 sets of tires on my 1st off road rig. It was a major hassle to swap and store the extra set (big / heavy). I'd try to get the swap time down but figure 30-60 minutes. I'd try to get off road at least once or twice a month. Really not worth the hassle unless only going off road...
  3. 74 Weld Steering Rack (SAVE YOUR CASH)

    I'm not a Fan or Supporter.... but $2,128 for a Hoss 3.0 (programmed), bushings and end housing. https://broncbustertx.com/broncbuster-ultimate-steering-solution-blow-out-sale/ Any knowledge on how this solution has been holding up? Failures?
  4. 74 Weld Steering Rack (SAVE YOUR CASH)

    The entire housing unquestionably the strongest available option. I think it is extremely money well spent if going 37" or larger tires or needing the most reliable solution for solo or remote travel (especially rock crawling). We have no regrets adding the full housing for the Raptor. We...
  5. 74 Weld Steering Rack (SAVE YOUR CASH)

    I did talk with Quinn about the replacement end caps vs entire rack housing. He said there were no known failures of the Hoss 3.0 with upgraded end caps. He couldn't confirm if the housing was even needed. As in... is the housing breaking due to end bushing deflection? Cause of catastrophic...
  6. 74 Weld Steering Rack (SAVE YOUR CASH)

    I don't agree with the "fuse" concept (in general). Oversized tires should have all affected parts strengthened for use. My "fuse" has always been the tires. Meaning the tires will break free, spin before parts start breaking. Think about this... Dana44 with 33" tires. Nearly impossible to...
  7. ICON Complete Coilover Suspension Systems (Stages 3 through 8)

    We the Icon CDEV on our 2dr Bronco. It is much "firmer" on road (lowest setting) compared to our Bronco Raptor (which is rather plush). Have the same wheels/tires on both rigs. I will say... the Icon Shock "Calibration" has never worked on the app. My understanding is without completing...
  8. Rock Jock Antirock sway bar personal evaluation.

    Not really. It is essentially a "long travel" sway bar that has a "reduced" spring rate from the stock (more flexible). It will limit wheel travel compared to no sway bar. However, often on IFS rigs the front spring rate is "higher" than the rear and less travel. Removing the front sway bar...
  9. Hoss 3.0 tie rod failure photos

    Are those Made in China?? I wouldn't promote RC parts... just saying. :)
  10. Recommendations to improve long term reliability?

    Quick thought on battery charge... We have a 2dr and Raptor. Battery charge seems to stay up if we keep doors locked (even parked in the garage). Guessing it puts more electronics to "sleep" more quickly. Worth experimenting.
  11. Need trailer suggestions for towing can-am

    Off road the Bronco. SxS is a depreciation king... Quickest way to throw away money. We had one for a couple years. So glad to off road the Bronco: quiet, less dust, way better mpg (off road), less maintenance, less hassle (towing, storage, servicing). Make sure you review the maintenance...
  12. Ford Bronco Raptor Air Oil Separator

    Anyone have some miles after install? Feedback on oil collection? Easy to empty? Thanks!
  13. Bronco Raptor Take Off Parts: Gas Skid, Exhaust Muffler... Kingman, AZ

    Yes but sold the brackets that connect the steps and sliders together.
  14. Official: Scout EV SUV & Pickup debut w/ Gas Range Extender, 4x4, BOF, Lockers, Sway Bar Disconnect -- All Specs, Wallpapers, Videos

    Nobody mentioned 92" wide!?!?! What??? Super Duty is the skinny kid. Haha How is that supposed to off road let alone fit in a parking space?
  15. Ford Accessories - Warn Winch Kit - purchased and now can't find a dealership to install!

    Do it yourself. More work you do and better understand the vehicle the better. If you actually plan to off road and use the winch it's best to be able to fix/repair as needed.
  16. 74Weld Bronco Portals now available!

    It's what you get for the money. There's not much happening in a portal box.
  17. 74Weld Bronco Portals now available!

    I seriously considered 74Weld portals. Spoke with Quinn multiple times and met him at the Overland Expo. It rubbed me that he asserted that his product was "perfect" or "the best" yet there was no written warranty and limited testing. He just said he would "stand behind it" (whatever that...
  18. Switch or Solenoid for Winch

    Keep in mind those nice charts are showing 1 wrap on the winch drum... This is not realistic. It rarely happens that you will pull loads with 1 wrap. Meaning you will have a higher load / amp draw for whatever weight you are pulling (most of the time - compared to the charts). And typically...
  19. Switch or Solenoid for Winch

    Be careful with solenoids... winches will draw huge amp loads. Look at the manufacturer charts. 500amp is not enough. I'd make sure you have a quality (not china part) and check that it can withstand the under hood temperature range and waterproof. Realistically a switch is probably the...
  20. Arizona tire recommendations to replace factory squatch goodyears

    I'd recommend a quality tire (NOT FROM CHINA). 3 ply sidewall. Lots of great options depending on design and tread pattern. We've been running Nitto Recon 37x11.5R17. Rolls well. We average over 20mpg with our 2dr 2.3L manual. And have hit 20mpg with the Raptor.
