A bucket list gift from my wife, it was driving a very expensive BMW M5 Competition with 617 hp and ceramic brakes at full throttle down the back straight and then around the road course at BMW’s South Carolina performance center during a 1 day M School. They also taught us drifting on...
@Callelk, I believe it will almost certainly be in the way. I had mine on the roll bar and there just wasn’t enough room. So I modified the mount slightly and put it on the edge of the attic shelf. Rock solid. Whatever the big gray speckled thing is, it will probably be in the way too.
It’s...
I haven’t driven with the top down since the install. Getting the top down is a bit of struggle. You have to lower the shelf and then carefully manipulate the canvas folds around the struts that hold the shelf up. Installation instructions detail that process. One of the top bows gets very close...
Bert, you have two issues.
First is the alternator. Been there done that and they fixed mine under warranty. The TSB puts a shield on the bottom rear side of the alternator. The front top remains wide open. When one looks down from the top, copper windings are still visible. The...
It’s a Mountains2Metal shelf. It comes in a fixed model and one that swings up for more money. Mine swings which comes in handy when you need to carry something big. My recovery gear rides on it and is zip tied down so stuff stays put in case of an accident. I’m awaiting delivery of M2M’s swing...
This might be slightly higher than the headrests and doesn’t require mole panels but does require M2M mounting plates. Not certain if this is what your looking for or not.
@TLO, I can’t speak to your specific situation but mine had what I’ll call a saddle on the back side of the frame horn that holds the nuts for the three long bolts which hold the bumper on. That saddle hangs over the frame and is held in place via a welded stud on the frame horn with plastic...
No. When I started I was certain I’d have to either cut the tab off or notch the skid plate, but didn’t need to. It was close, but cleared. You can see the tab in relation to skid plate In the pic.

Grandson lives in Charlotte so we try to hit Uwharrie whenever we’re there. The two trails to check out are Jeep badge of honor trail Dickie Bell and Daniel. Rain will make both much harder. We’ve done Dickie Bell, but went down the major obstacle. Have also done back side of Daniel...
OP, I suspect you’ll get a wide range of answers. There are many products out there. Each of us carries different stuff for different purposes. I like this mountains2metal tip up shelf. I keep my recovery gear zip tied to it.
@indio22, it takes the time that comes with age to accumulate the mileage that wears on body parts. We’ve hiked, backpacked and walked nearly 6,000 miles. We’re both in our 70’s. Feet, hips, knees and back are starting to say enough is enough. But we’ve seen many amazing places that I...
@MileHighCitizen, thanks for the insight. We have reserved an Airbnb in Granby. We were long time hikers and backpackers on whom age has taken its toll. Just physically can't hike up to the pass in Maroon Bells anymore. Even flatter distance is pretty much out of the question. The Bronco gives a...
We are planning a get out of the heat, explore, and wheel a bit trip to the mountains of Colorado from mid July to mid August in the Granby/Frasier/Winterpark area. I know this is resort/ski country and assume the snow is gone by then. There are many eateries along this corridor. Are they...
