I have a Viair 400 that I've been using for ~15 years. Great units. That said, the air chuck that comes with them will not fit on the Bronco wheels with trim rings. I had to get an adapter with a straight chuck to be able to use it.
When they mentioned "curated" I figured they were using an existing third party to source the trail info. Sure enough, looks like trail data is powered by FunTreks. Those of you with the Guide to Moab/California/Colorado Backroads books would be familiar with them.
Correct, my bad. Load doubles on the snatch block and its attachment, not the line itself.
That aside, IMO that winch and line are still undersized for a mid-sized SUV. Pulling a truck up an incline in neutral does not require the same force as pulling one out of mud or off of rocks.
Keep in mind that a winch's full pulling power is only on the last layer. The pulling strength for that 5500# winch on the first layer is only ~3500#. HF also doesn't list the breaking strength for that line but most 1/4" lines are around 9000-10000#. So for those saying to snatch block, not...
Great pics. Looks like a fun trip. I've only been there once about 15 years ago but plan to go back with the Bronco. Last time our group camped at Furnace Creek and did day trips to Racetrack/Ubehebe craters, then Barker Ranch via Coyote Canyon, and then a day out to Rhyolite ghost town. So...
I have OEM sliders right now, but when I upgrade I will most definitely get frame-mounted. And after seeing the Exodus4x4 video where they bent the NVM up so much the door wouldn't open, I would definitely avoid those.
Here's one from AC-Fab showing their quick disconnects. Doesn't show the actual removal of the stock ones, but you should be able to figure it out from this.
If you mean, does the 74weld rack fit in any Bronco, yes. But it uses Hoss 3.0 internals so it will require reprogramming for a non-Hoss 3.0 Bronco. There is a very long thread about this process.
The other discussion is around wanting a housing that would take Hoss 1.0 or 2.0 internals so...
Fair. But right now that still requires reprogramming with a "borrowed" VIN. If Ford makes that a true plug and play option, that would be an ideal middle ground.
I'll agree that this is the best option right now. And 74weld are not known for building middling products. But it would be great to have good/better/best options for those who don't want to drop $5K+ but want something better than stock H1.0. Right now we have the BB fixes (good) and the...
There's other threads about fuel pump issues. This is the first that comes to mind.

Material thickness - recommend 3/16"+
Coverage for/compatibility with shock reservoir -the Bilstein shocks are different between badlands and Sasquatch and interfered with bolts on some skids
Mounting points - some use the shock bolt, some don't. I preferred not using the shock bolt but you'll...
The BLM site is very short on info and is focused only on the land swap, not the intended uses by Washington County/City.
Wasn't aware of this issue previously but did some reading on the UPLA and BRC sites. The biggest issues I see are:
Inequitable value of land swap (89 acres for 1050...
