Adjusted for inflation and features, new cars are generally significantly cheaper than past decades. The problem I have is feature creep. I would actually pay MORE to do LESS but BETTER. I want my car do one thing, get be from point A to point B. Do this safely, cheaply, and with right amount...

Someday I want to build a support bracket that will reinforcement the hardtop from the inside. This would mount directly to the inside frame and offer far more static load support. No one is manufacturing a product like that yet. With a bracket, Id be more comfortable using a roof top tent for...

Still great. It's been sitting on top of my Bronco for over a year. The Bronco is still my daily. No rust or cracking. Panels are removable. I strap large 20 gallon containers to it regularly, and it works fine. I have not transported anything too heavy, just light weight gear and skis.

I didn't get the Maximus, I just said it was interesting. It is the only detachable winch on market. Did your Chinese kit come with frame horn reinforcements? I doubt it. You could have bought a brand new OEM kit for only a grand? You paid the same price for used gear? And no warranty?

For me, once my 3yr/30k warranty expires, I’ve decided I will relocate the intercooler to fit a hammer built hidden winch. Most major engine manufacturing issues are caught in the first 30k miles. But they will blame everything on the aftermarket intercooler (no warranty). The OEM setup is by...

Update for those who are still considering the TSB: My bronco had the TSB completed last summer. This winter, I did over 30 ski trips in freezing temps (~8000miles) and no grinding at all. The TSB completely fixed my Bronco. My bronco had grinding right out of the dealer lot.

I still use it everyday, and only took it off once. Looks great, no rust or anything I can see. Holding up fine. My only complaint is still that it is so heavy.

I haven't done anything yet, still waiting on more aftermarket options for the 2-door. Have you tried adding a few large washers? I bet that would help the fit

Does trailrax sell an extension kit for this half rack? If I wanted to connect to the front? It would be nice to have the option to lengthen it when needed.

The D syncros fixed my Bronco. Installed last summer.. drove all winter, no grinding.

Tire noise lol.. the Bronco is not quite in the slightest. The hard top is not insulated and a roof rack will make wind noise real bad. MPG is also terrible, it's a brick. Build quality is good, but not perfect (door alignment is iffy and the hardtop is cheap). Easy to drive, goes straight, and...

update: still no grinding, but.. when I went to change the oil I noticed something odd. is there a missing transmission bolt in this photo? looks like the tech might have missed a bolt.. but i’m not sure. can someone confirm for me?

Update: Had revision D synchros put into my 22 last summer. So far so good this winter, sub freezing temps and no grinding after a thousand miles. Shifts just as good as before.

Hello all, I’m debating on whether this tune is right for me, and need help deciding. My biggest complaint with the stock 2.3 manual, is that it is constantly in turbo boost.. it really struggles to maintain speed on the highway. Even 4th struggles at 70mph going over my local pass at...

Not at all. And the towing capacity is the same, which is comical

I had a few laughs, but overall, not a very helpful review. The Bronco drives WAY better than he was letting on, better than most competition. He went on and on about how wide it is. Yes, the material choices aren’t all great, and there’s some design/manufacturing kinks which are pretty...

Could this mod work on a 2-door?

Got to admit, that does sound pretty nice.. but I simply wouldn't trust the complexity and long-term reliability. Such a small powerful battery can't possible last long (the brightest candles usually burns the fastest).

Hybrid on such a heavy rig, seems pointless to me. I wish Ford would distinguish itself from Jeep’s ideas. So far the Bronco is mostly an improved on-road Jeep with IFS. Things that would have distinguished the Bronco: a real tailgate, better mpg, big towing numbers, v8, remote locking interior...

I don’t think any 2-door lifts exist yet. I built a garage hoist. Amazon sells an electric hoist for 70$. The balance point is not difficult to find and lifts off easy. Use foam pool noodles to protect hardtop.
