I had a 2008 4Runner Sport, 2013 Trail, 2020 TRD Pro and traded the last one in for a 2024 Braptor.
It would be difficult to match the mechanical reliability of probably any of those 3 4Runners. Though i have had no issues with the Bronco. The hard top is absolutely the way to go IMO. Thereās...
Neither photo is of my Raptor. My understanding is that the OEM jack, using the riser, elevates to 19.5ā. The Gortech jack raises it to 24ā. Itās vastly more robust, stable and well built.
I really just wanted a taller, much better built, more stable version of what the Raptor comes with and to...
It really only seems large next to what came with my ride. As we all know, what Ford ships with Broncoās is a little on the skinny side right out of the gate.
I kinda prefer the mechanical simplicity of this To other options.
I use a 2-ton Gortech scissor jack. It comes with a height extension and does a great job For my Braptor On 37ās.
Gortech Scissor Jack
Hereās a video review thatās a little lengthy, but gets in to why this jack is so good.

The B&O in my BRaptor is just ok. I wish there were a simple way to improve upon it. Doesnāt seem to be the case. People will come along with a āsimpleā fix, but having seen a few, they arenāt what Iād personally call āsimpleā.
There are companies who make great dash cams for the Bronco that replace the housing around the rear view mirror and plug directly in to the power source within it. No running cables, no dangling cam below the mirror, you canāt even see it unless youāre outside looking in to the windshield. Same...
I went with the DV8 low profile. You can see it in the front cam view, but it doesnāt bother me, I can see everything I need to see despite it being visible.
I would have liked a color matched hard top on my Braptor, but really liked the Iconic Silver (2024) and this was as close as I could get. Given the black/grey/silver pairing, Iām pretty happy with it though.
Oooof, thatās not good, particularly given how new your Bronco is. Definitely seems fixable, just kind of shocking it looks like that on a 2025. I have a 2024 Raptor with zero visible rust, so yours seems like there may be a leak somewhere thatās running in to that area.
Thatās the one, same as on my BRaptor. It fits great. The only downside side is that itās visible in the front facing camera view. Doesnāt bother me. I returned the light bar I got for it, but still looking.
Wondering how this compares to FITCAMX?

They look very similar.
