  1. Vibration Protection for Radio

    I'll be installing two radios on a Lobo overhead rack. I'd like to dampen vibrations and impacts, especially those caused by off-road driving. Any suggestions for a good material to use with mounting bolts and washers? Of course rubber washers sound appropriate, but I wonder about different...

  3. Las Vegas Off-Rodeo Report

    As I wrote in another post here: "I just got back from the Las Vegas Off-Rodeo. It was really excellent as a training course for how to use the Bronco's tech and how to drive trails. I learned a lot. The site is excellent, with a range of trails from easy to 5-6 at the max. I did harder stuff...

  5. Rear Lighting Thoughts for Camping?

    I've been mulling over this for some time and thought I'd ask people about their experiences and suggestions. This time around I'm trying to improve my camping experience and convenience compared to past 4x4s I've owned. BACKING UP In past vehicles I've sometimes been frustrated trying to...
  6. Middle Fork American River Fun Adventure/Fiasco/Learning Experience

    PART 1 We're pretty new in the Sacramento area in northern California, though I've been through the area and up in the mountains on the major highways many times. My back-road explorations in the state have almost all been in other areas, though. Now I'm gradually exploring my new local...
  7. Warm Interior Lights?

    When camping, I plan on sleeping in my Bronco like I slept in my previous 4x4s. I haven't been able to find any interior vehicle lighting product (excluding LED strips) that produces a relatively warm light, like 2500-3500 K, on a 12v circuit. All the LED interior lights for Broncos that I can...
  8. First Dirt for My New Bronco! North Fork American River Headwaters, California

    20 days after finally getting my new Bronco, it finally got it out on some dirt roads for its dirt initiation! It's been over two years since I drove a 4WD on dirt roads, and almost three years since I did a trail where picking a line was a good idea. I sold my beloved and well-used...

  11. Current Status of Available Hard Tops for the 4-Door Bronco

    A lot has happened in this area over the several years of Bronco 6g production. I want to make sure I understand the current situation and I'd love to hear from people who've ordered/bought one of the options other than the factory MIC top. Here are the options I'm aware of, to the best of my...
  12. What Kind of Price Can We Expect to Get When Ordering?

    I plan on ordering a 2025 Badlands by the end of the year with the options I want. I haven't bought a vehicle since 1995, with the exception of a mid-2023 purchase off the lot where I felt lucky to get MSRP. It was past the worst of the pandemic-related supply chain problems but the consumer...
  13. Wheel Offset and Wheel Well Clearance

    My long-planned build is a non-Sas Badlands and the financial stuff is finally falling into place to make that possible. I'd like to replace the stock KO2 tires with tires a little bit taller (34-35") but narrower. Let's say LT255/85R17 MT Baja Bosses at 34.6" height and 9.8" section width...
  14. Sasquatch vs. Non-Sasquatch Handling and Stability

    I recently did a couple of Bronco test drives. The goal was to check out the handling, ride, and noise of a non-Sasquatch Badlands. Well, the dealers weren't able to produce the vehicles they claimed to have in stock on their websites. As a result I first drove a Badlands Sas, then at a...
  15. Hello from northern California

    Hi everyone. I've been exploring the American west my whole life, with the Eastern Sierra region of California and Nevada a favorite with its mountains and deserts. Been four-wheeling since before I had a 4WD - my first car developed a dented oil pan! My current four-wheeler is a 1996 Toyota...
