  1. Notes from Wheeling / Breaking / Fixing / Loving the Bronco

    The rodeo trip was primarily a trail clean-up effort. We were honored to be part of it and probably met some of you. We organize trail clean-ups anywhere we can and (here's where I get preachy) please do your part. We met some awesome people that brought out their kids to scrub the desert...

    A bit of a rewind to this story: 4 weeks prior to this trip at the rodeo, we did Rim Trail on a bone stock Brapter. All we did was add better tires. We barely touched metal anywhere. Devils Crack only. The thing is so planted, it made the afternoon pretty uneventful for a high consequence...

    Beautiful LC! I notice a lot of people from the LC community going to Bronco. Not sure why, but I haven't heard of anyone going back.

    Mine is a bit snappy on 4L, but not seemingly as bad as yours. The transmission is a little funky in low past 1st.

    I remember you guys! I think I asked you if you had a lift on yours. My buddy's name is Tate. He runs the Gambler 500 and Sons of Smokey. He revels in trolling jeepers. Great seeing you guys user your Broncos!

    Day 3: Family Day As a group of 9 families, we chose to tackle Fins and Things for the grins. Not anything too crazy on this trail, but there are a few party lines. It almost felt like the broncos of the group were there to give a tour to the 5 other jeeps. We had 2 old CJ5s that couldn't do...

    Day 2: Father's day To my wife, she believes Fathers Day is all about getting away from your children. I think there's a lot to love about that belief. So we decided to do a hard trail that nobody else wanted to do. Steel Bender all the way through. We've done sections of Steel Bender leading...

    I got this one. Works pretty well. Needs to be removable to fold the back seats down. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BTD68P77?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

    Moab: Day One So, after 13 hours straight in a Bronco, we arrive in Moab. Tradition for our group is to unpack as quickly as possible and the guys that brought capable rigs take them up the first part of Steel Bender (*rated 7) to a place we call Beer Hill. It's an attempt to shake off the...

    Chapter 2: Getting there Now that we have a Bronco, time to use it. I chose not to (although I wish I did) upgrade the tires and bump up the size prior to the trip, so it was time to pack up the stock rig for Moab. I have 2 kids; A 9-year-old daughter that's 5'1" and a 13-year-old son that's...

    Nice LCs! You have the same rear bumper as I have. I'm friends with the guy that owns Metal Tech, so I went all MT on the sliders and front bumper. His stuff is bulletproof. Hit the sliders so hard I thought my fillings would pop out. Rubicon was particularly hard on parts.

    Hello Forum, I thought I'd document some of the hits and misses from my 2021 Badlands Sasquatch since buying it 4 weeks ago. I typically drive my vehicles hard and use them to the top of their ability (see breaking point) and do most of my own work to fix what has been broken. I'll also note...
