  1. Dumping my daughters Jeep, what does Dad need to know?

    If that kept you up I also say go Toyota. Bronco as with any high CG vehicle will roll in the wrong situation. The one from the test was a very specific crash. Also Ford is not exactly known for their reliability. Love Jeeps and Broncos but if that was my concern, neither one would be on my...
  2. Wrangler vs. Bronco sales Q2 2024

    Drove one, agree it handles better but not great. Like I said, heard all this before and in the end, once the novelty of it wears off, people return to their 4Runner, CVR, BMW. 4runner excluded, they all drive (ride and handling) way better than both Jeeps and Broncos. People do not buy...
  3. Wrangler vs. Bronco sales Q2 2024

    74welds are sweet for sure! Was looking at them for my jeep but was a bit rich for my blood. Also do not like the idea of four hub oil changes every 3K or every other oil change. That video was good. Did great. I still think though the Bronco is a better overland rig. I was not justifying...
  4. Wrangler vs. Bronco sales Q2 2024

    Pretty simple actually. People buy rigs to either build to look big or to take offroading. Bronco is in the market being IFT for people who probably will only mildly lift and run but do more daily and in a way a bit more realistic. I have talked to people in the market before for other rigs...
  5. Wrangler vs. Bronco sales Q2 2024

    Hate say it but it is the IFS trail rig curse. The good news for people who own them they still sold more than some of the other rigs that went down this road so you will get more aftermarket support. With few sales look at the value hold of the FJ. I think this is why Toyota never went full...
  6. Rocks caught between wheel and tire voids warranty!!!

    I would bet if they just cleaned the debris from the bead and re seated it the tire would hold pressure. Jeep can have the same issues of dealers being sales man and not car people. Check reviews and find a dealer that is Ford blue oval people that understand track and offroad and always go...
  7. What sort of prices are people seeing for their used Broncos?

    Never seen any value website have an accurate price for a specialty vehicle. Unless it is using comps it usually uses a standard equation of depreciation which does not apply so some vehicles.
  8. What sort of prices are people seeing for their used Broncos?

    Doing a quick search close to my house there are around 150 for sale within 50 miles. All ranges of models including the raptor. High fuel prices is not going to help resale. Also saw the same thing happen with the Gladiator once production caught up. Also I am not the only one with the...
  9. What changes you think Jeep will make to the Wrangler??

    @vzqhsg Ok, yeah that is true. I give. Jeep has done well listening. Unless you go Hydro you cannot put a rack system on a SFA. I do not mind the steering system on the jeep. Most of the issues are because of caster angle not being enough but also just issues with a SFA
  10. What changes you think Jeep will make to the Wrangler??

    I read this but most of the offroading innovations into the mainstream market of come from Jeep. internal Sway bar discos, Front rear lockers, high articulation. Low gears, pre-wired aux, hybrid drivetrain. Only thing that is nice and new on the Bronco is the cameras and big screen which...
  11. What happened to Jeep? The mother of all SUVs has lost its edge...

    The Wrangler is down by 11%. Pretty normal for just before a refresh. It is most other models that are the issue. Mainly the Renegade from what I have read. " 2.6% opting for a Bronco " Not a huge part really. Just the market. Wranglers have been red hot for a lot of years.
  12. Bronco owner vandalizes Moab rock during Bronco Safari; UBC helps with restoration

    No, not really. We go out to explore and enjoy nature. If I want to see graffiti I would go into Seattle which makes the place look like hell. Tagging in a national park is so wrong on so many levels.
  13. Some fun and not so much fun... trail riding with a bad ending (alternator failure)

    Feel the same way and also dunes. That fine sand gets everywhere. RZR for dunes is the way to go. Also so easy to break stuff not seeing a witches eye and stuffing it. With Mud even a pressure washer does not do it all. Helps if you do it right way before it turns to cement.
  14. It was bound to happen... angry face Bronco

    fab Four makes some great stuff and then stuff like this.:poop::poop:
  15. Beware: Trail Turn Assist causes axle weld failure that dealer won't warranty!!!

    Thing about a solid rear axle is for the most part is the geometry gearing wise does not change with a lift. The front cv I would agree. “If you actually read his post”. He has the sas bronco that comes with 35s. He only went up 2” which is a difference of 5%. Engineers should know anyone...
  16. THEY WONT INSTALL THE 285/75R16 TIRE FOR MY BASE BRONCO

    Coscto has some very specific rules on this. Ran into this on my Jeep years back. Even with a lift they would only install the same size tires it rolled off the factory floor with due to what they said is legal and insurance reasons because how how they warrantee all work. Just need to go to...
  17. Beware: Trail Turn Assist causes axle weld failure that dealer won't warranty!!!

    I am getting sick of how often Ford blames the driver for using the vehicle for what it was built for. I would never use the feature on anything other than slick surfaces though. Should have just had a true dig then it would not happen.
  18. Muddy water fording alternator issue fix: TSB 22-2392 -- Mud Accumulation in Generator

    Seems like a weird fix to me or a Band-Aid and curious if over time they will now fail due to heat buildup. There is a reason alternators are not sealed units. The true fix is to move it above the water line. We will see in areas like AZ and So Cal where Deep mud is not an issue but heat is.
  19. Watch this Bronco recovery and the damage the owner did to his Bronco

    Also the type of snow is huge. Nice cold snow with a good floatation footprint and slow no digging approach works. Old Ice refrozen then chains help. Deep slush you have to drive it like you stole it. Chains though are usually a last ditch effort to bring to get you out. Lockers can be...
  20. Watch this Bronco recovery and the damage the owner did to his Bronco

    There place is more for vibration and shock from being jolted as well as opening and closing the tailgate. Without them over time the door will bend from use. Not going to help in this case.
