  1. Musty carpet after water spill

    Vinegar and baking soda the mixture you use to make a volcano. I put the vinegar a spray bottle spray the area well until it is damp then sprinkle the soda and let it fizz and bubble and sit until it dries then vacuum up the soda. That got the spoiled milk smell out of a car. Same thing happened...
  2. 4 years in, finally see a crack in hardtop!

    All I did was clean it with acetone really well then wiped it down with Alcohol. It is a kit I got off of Amazon it is actually called custom coat but same maker as the Raptor liner stuff. Comes with a gun to spray it with too. I used three cans of the four in the kit. I applied it a couple...
  3. 4 years in, finally see a crack in hardtop!

    I would say they are strong. this one took a rollover. If my Raptor liner fails, I am going with an Armadillo. Bronco Rollover Pritchett Canyon
  4. 4 years in, finally see a crack in hardtop!

    I Raptor liner’ed my top my self. I thought it would look totally different than the mic with the texture and being black. I really don’t notice it and most folks I have to tell them it is different than stock. But I am surprised how much that rear section where the hinges attach flexes when...
  5. Idling down - Feeling Stupid

    I Come from the old school diesel world. I always let the 12v in my F250 cool before I shut it down, just carry it over to all my vehicles, now that they are all turbos except my NA Cobalt but I let that cool too, 400k must be doing something right.
  6. Installing Everglades OEM snorkel on 2.3L

    I run my intake plate so that I am sucking in cleaner air on the back side. And yes with the windows open or top off that sucker makes a glorious sound when rolling down the beach in sand mode or sport mode. My Bronco may sound like a sewing machine but the intake is at least nice.
  7. Which is best way to improve stance?

    You can get a set of nosquatch OBX fenders and have painted fenders.
  8. Installing Everglades OEM snorkel on 2.3L

    Yeah, there is no benefit ( for water fording) to have the snorkel higher than the top of the hood. The benefit of it being at the top of the windshield or passenger window is to get cleaner air. I live down a very dusty road. And after our trip to Baja others were replacing their nasty filters...
  9. Installing Everglades OEM snorkel on 2.3L

    The snorkel is rather large where it passes through the fender. So it would cover up a less than perfect cut. also I don’t know if it’s cheaper the Heritage fenders are the same. All you need is a Glades passenger fender.
  10. Base Model Question

    Yup just a better tire for snow will make a big difference and depending on the tire be a great tire for off-roading. I just put a set of Falken Rubitreks on my truck and am super happy with them. They are 3 peaks rated AT tire.
  11. Posable spotlights?

    Spotting Dear and then shooting them I would imagine gets you thrown in jail and confiscated vehicle and firearms. Or if you are just driving down the road shining a spotlight into random pastures, I am sure is frowned upon. I know I don’t like it when people leaving the State park go shining...
  12. Installing Everglades OEM snorkel on 2.3L

    I think in practice the alternator may be the deciding factor for water fording depth but technically it is the breather tubes and the amount of fudge factor they give. I have yet to try the water fording capabilities ( I mean I did a bunch of water crossings on Onion Creek in Moab and a 1.5...
  13. Installing Everglades OEM snorkel on 2.3L

    Ooh making a hybrid set up you might find yourself having to fabricate some parts if they don’t play nice with each other. I am sure it can be done. But just might be cleaner if you have a Glades washer fluid tank, I dunno. but if you need any pictures of a stock Everglade snorkel I can help...
  14. 2021 Badlands 2-Dr (New to Me) Camping Build

    We use a 5 gallon bucket trash bags baby diapers and the smelly stuff for RV toilets for our potty. I built a 270 awning for my home built trailer. You might consider that you can customize it to fit your rig.
  15. 8/17 - Imogene, Engineer, and Ophir in Bronco + Defender

    Nice trip we just got back from Durango in mid July. We were going to do Ophir but they opened Black Bear that morning so we opted for that trail. All awesome trails in that area. My favorite was Corkscrew. None of them difficult trails but the views (for this flat lander) are amazing.
  16. Check engine light on for a few days then off...

    Yep our evap system threw a CEL that’s what they kept asking if we topped off the gas. Turns out the line got kinked and was creating a blockage. The back end of the Bronco smelled like gas really bad until they fixed it. Also we were getting really good fuel mileage until they fixed it, it went...
  17. Washing with well water - how are y'all avoiding hard water?

    Our well water is so hard you have to chew it. Since we have no pavement and the only concrete we have is under the house and in my garage I don’t have a good place to wash a vehicle without making a muddy mess so I just take my vehicles to the car wash about 13 miles away. And when I get to the...
  18. DIY chase lights installed

    Sorry this might be a little late. but the covers pop off you have to push them up they have little hooks that hold on to the hinge pin. if you open the glass you can see them. it helped if i pushed them up with the glass open then had to close the glass to get them off. I am using the Nilight...
  19. JCR Offroad Overhead MOLLE Panel “Spine” + Starlink Mini Setup Review

    Not a Raptor but I have the rough country OH molle panel a magnetic mini mount that I bolted in instead of using the magnets and run the power back to the cigarette outlet in the cargo area. Works like a champ even with after I painted the top with Raptor liner.
  20. Fire Protection: Extinguishers: Dry, Halotron, CO2, Element Stick, Blankets, etc... what are you carrying?

    We were on a trip to Baja in March/April with a group of Broncos I used the jack many times there. Lucky for me it was not for myself. Yes it is the 4x6 blanket. We bought the set that came with 4 blankets. One in the house one in the travel trailer one in the garage and one in the Bronco.
