  1. Repairing back glass weather strip and plastic trim

    Bought new weatherstripping, but then found out the cracked plastic piece under it isn’t separate — it’s actually molded into the rear glass itself. Dealer confirmed the only way to replace it is a whole new window. I’ll live with the crack. Put the old strip back on for now, but since it’s...
  2. Repairing back glass weather strip and plastic trim

    Did you find the part number for the plastic piece that attaches directly to the window?
  3. 2 Door Hardtop lift / storage DIY with just (4) eye hooks and (4) cam straps

    3rd year of taking on/off 2-3x/season & no issues. I got the Rockworx fasteners to make it easier (tool only needed for the 2 fasteners on roof).
  4. Chicagoland dealers for service

    Murgado (formerly Fox) Ford on North Side of city has been great for past 3 years
  5. Big Bend Mileage with 2.3 L

    2D BB 7MT. Calculated MPG (~.7 mpg below displayed): 27 best, 21 worst, 23.5 avg. Highly impacted by driving style and conditions. This is my latest: front panels off entire time & hardtop off for about 100 miles. 26 calculated (I suspect fuel economy better with top on).
  6. Manual transmission issue wearing boots.

    I recently had the same situation. It seems dangerous, but I’m not sure where to start with raising the issue with Ford etc? You should be able to wear boots when driving a truck…
  7. What's your MPG?

    Calculated at 26.5! More highway and expressway than typical (50-70) and top back on for the fall :-(.
  8. 2 Door Hardtop lift / storage DIY with just (4) eye hooks and (4) cam straps

    After 2 months needed to put top back on. Took about 30 min lowering each corner an inch or so at a time. Thumb screws would have saved time (instead of oem torx bolts). No issues with cam straps.
  9. Fender Flares (OEM) scratched

    Looks like someone parked too close at 4th of July pary :-(. The jerk also scratched front edge of my (plastic) bumper. Glad these aren't painted. Would you lightly sand w/ steel wool? Better to just try to buy a new/used one?
  10. 2 Door Hardtop lift / storage DIY with just (4) eye hooks and (4) cam straps

    I saw no flexing at all, and this it was super easy to construct and lift. Lowering it will take a second set of hands to be safe (but haven't done yet)...Lower so pins are near holes. Release straps then shift into holes. I hoisted it by going around to each strap and raising it a bit at a...
  11. 2 Door Hardtop lift / storage DIY with just (4) eye hooks and (4) cam straps

    Project took about an hour and cost me maybe $30 in materials. Ive seen some attach a 2x4 board to the rear straps then rest the hardtop on the board, But is there a reason NOT not just hook the top from the bottom with the hooks attached to the cam straps (like I did)?I did not find any FMC...
  12. What's your MPG?

    2023 BB 2D 7MT @ 3500 miles. 23.8 avg/ 25 best/ 21 worst. Mostly below freezing since taking delivery…finally getting warm out.
  13. Ford Power-Up 4.2.1.2 software update now available

    My only issue with my 23 BB MT 2D is that, since taking delivery mid December, modem has lost connectivity 4x. Each time it has fixed itself with a subsequent update. With the powerup update around March 27, I had remote status back for about a day (remote lock, location, tpms, etc). But as of...
  14. Draw-Tite Hitch & 1UP Bike Rack

    It completely clears tire (BB OEM). I have the 1up super duty rack which easily tilts downward (see my photo above)
  15. Draw-Tite Hitch & 1UP Bike Rack

    There is an advantage to keeping bikes as high above the road if possible (road spray doesn’t hit) if you go fat biking or transport bikes in rain. I didn’t realize this until I got the bronco (after having a crosstrek and Audi wagon before)…bikes stay a lot more clean on the bronco.
  16. FordPass stopped working, ford says…

    Is that officially documented somewhere? Should I go to dealership or just wait till my 1st service interval (this summer).
  17. Draw-Tite Hitch & 1UP Bike Rack

    TBD if that rack will tilt down enough to clear tailgate. I have a 2 door, so it’s essential I have easy access to rear.
  18. FordPass stopped working, ford says…

    I've owned my Bronco for 3 months and it's modem stopped working 3 times already. Is this the system-wide problem or specific to certain vehicles? Quite annoying
  19. Draw-Tite Hitch & 1UP Bike Rack

    It's not in the way (doesn't stick out far). It's actually convenient for changing out of cycling shoes sitting in the back.
