Awesome! Thank you for posting this. My flooring came in over the weekend but I havenāt had an opportunity to even take it out the box. Iāll hopefully install mine in the next 2 weeks.
Nice! I keep putting off getting this. Iām waiting for my soft top to get a little more worn down. How long did it take to receive? And who did you order through?
RTR has a great low profile bumper that keeps the plate in a similar spot and has a good clean low profile look. Retains sensor locations too. Iāve had it for over a year and love it.

This is similar to that, but Iād recommend Ikonic Badges or just regular script instead of overpaying for this. https://www.lethalperformance.com/archetype-racing-bronco-dna-fender-emblems-bronco-trim-level-wildtrak-grey-script-color-satin-black-sasquatch-choosing-no-receives-bronco-no-49.html
Ikionicās custom badges are honestly pretty close to the Fuel bronze, just a little more mirror look than the rims. I donāt think they have Bronco script though, just custom badges resembling trim levels.
Fun fact, in case any of you decide to get a hitch carrier and happen to have the RTR rear bumper and factory tow package, youāre going to need an 8 inch hitch extension or more. I ordered the kuat pivot in combo with the Pakmule Scout. Got both ready to go and went to attach to my Bronco and I...
For anyone curious about an update or if they end up in the same situation as me, my front passenger bearing started going bad a week after the driver side got fixed so I took it to dealer this time since I wasnāt in a rush for repairs and it is covered under warranty. Thankfully š
Thanks for being a brave soul to buy this first! š Iāve been eyeing their hard top waiting for it to release. But Iām going to wait another year or 2 until my soft top wears out more and hopefully the price drops a little bit. Would love to hear a 6 month quality update when you get to that...
Itās fixed! Once I swapped the retainers out to the ones from the steel rear bumper my sensors functioned normally again. Only down side is when I went to order them, the left interior retainer was $75 for some reason compared to about $6 for each of the other 5 pieces š„“
Iāve got an off-road excursion Saturday so Iām really not trying to wait on them. Plus if they just pull my vin theyād see itās not Sas so idk if that would work š
So as the title states, I seem to have a wheel bearing going bad up front after just under 13k miles on it. Made a 500 mile round trip to Florida over the last 2 days and on the last hour back I started to hear a deep droning noise. At first I thought it was my tires but it was too deep to be...
There was another thread about these that tells you this, but Ford owns the patent to light up trailsights so no one else can make these and have the same shape as the trailsight.
I also like the look of these. I think theyāre super cool and seems to be made well but I probably wonāt get them...
Good to know. Iāll definitely consider them when it comes to the carrier. Might just end up doubling down and paying the extra dollar to get both. Iāve got a bike rack too anyways that I can use the pivot for.
I definitely like those. Probably really good quality carriers. Only issue I still have is if I need to open the tailgate and have the carrier loaded down I wouldnāt be able to access it with just the carrier since everything would be in the way of the gate.
Nice! Let me know how it handles once you load it down and try it out. Thinking my best solution might be combining a decent carrier with the Kuat pivot.
Iāve got the RTR set up so itās probably fine that is another good thought. Regardless of what reinforcement Iām not so sure if I do want to be adding more weight to that.
fantastic analysis! Thanks @HotdogThud for tagging him. I definitely donāt plan to do anything besides light trails if I...
Hey yāall, Iāll be making a trip up the east coast in a few months and Iām looking for opinions or recommendations on which is the better solution. Iām not sure if Iām better off with a hitch carrier or a spare tire basket like the one from JCR. They both seem to have pros and cons. The trailer...
