supposedly the flat tow procedure from Ford has been updated with the added need to pull two fuses related to the brakes. I was thinking it was mentioned in this thread somewhere. I did not go back and look.. If not here itās in another. Make sure you have the latest version of the Bronco...
CAT and Cummins parts counter peeps require partial vin (cat requires the complete vin) because thatās how their search mechanism is designed to find parts quickly and easily. They donāt even want to know the model. Thatās how they are used to doing it, thus their preferred method. And quite...
It really is largely about how you drive. I was averaging 17.5 in sport mode on 93octane in a rural area with intermittent highway runs and when I went from 35ās to 37ās, mpgās dropped to 15.5-16. I have never really cared about fuel mileage and hell, anything gets better than my V-10...
Congratulations on your new truck!
we call ours āThe Broncoā. because we are un-creative and canāt agree on anything. And itās actually my wifeās and she wants to call it something dumb. Donāt tell her I said soā¦ā¦. š¬
Your mileage may vary. Havenāt had it fully flexed yet. We do rock crawl, but havenāt since switching from 35ās to 37ās. Also your wheel offset comes into play. Mine are +12mm. Zero offset or negative offset may very well hit at the rear.
Mine isnāt close to hitting the rear. Do you have aftermarket upper control arms by chance? I donāt and because the caster is corrected with the lowers it may have moved the tire forward a little more than one with the caster corrected with aftermarket uppers. My tires measure 36.5ā
I trimmed the corners off my crash bar mounts (see picture) which rubbed immediately (turned at full lock on flat ground)and front inch off my factory rock sliders (not sure this was absolutely necessary but gave room for mudflaps not to rub). Slight non audible rubbing with +12 offset wheels...
I wondered the same thing, I donāt see how thereās any way over filling a differential could cause damage. Maybe blown seals because of thermal expansion, then loss of lubrication? But that doesnāt jive if they are vented.
Lace up tactical boots sprayed with water proofing. They fit pretty tight around your ankles and have a zipper so easy to remove. I donāt plan on wading knee deep in muck, but would if I had to.
I went from 10-ply 35ās to 8-ply 37ās and wish I had done that from the beginning. I havenāt weighed them yet but my tire guy said they are definitely lighter. I will hold off on rating them until they have some miles on them. Priority tire delivered them next day. So far I really like them.
I think it depends on what you do most with your Bronco. I would expect extreme articulation rock crawling to get significantly better, but on-road handling to get worse. But what do I know. @SierraBronco may have some words of wisdom here.
No but we leave it open sometimes when we have just the front roof panels out or windows down. Makes great flow-through ventilation. Not at 70mph though. We have a cargo cover so nothing blows out.
We got back from Alaska vacation late yesterday. We could hear them (the sounds of freedom!) all around but too tired to step outside. Took this one last year outside Bolivar Missouri RV park to visit family.
My concerns were as much because we flat-tow with a towbar behind our motorhome and have seen front bumpers ripped off towed vehicles when driving over transitions entering parking lots etc, so I have a Fab Fours stubby winch bumper that has extra plates that go under the frame which add 4...
