You running a 4 cylinder? There’s a hidden winch option for that. If you’re running the 6, the one in my build profile was the most hidden I could find without relocating a radiator/intercooler.

yup! i went with the manual, so 4 cylinder. hidden winch would be awesome.

This one was popular early on, maybe now you can find some reviews after people have used it.

I think this also prevents moving all your sensors. I still don’t have adaptive cruise control working which sucks, if you just have the parking sensors it’s not as bad to swap a bumper but I did have to cut and rewire those as well.

ouch, that sucks. i definitely don't want to have to do all that LOL!

side note: dealership where i got the bronco called today asking if i'd be interested in selling it back to them or trading in for a higher trim model. LOL!!! they must still be banking on used bronco sales!

I gave up my 2nd order to the dealer last week. It was hard to justify paying taxes to buy it and getting a high interest rate just to maybe sell it for a profit. If I could have transferred the name to a friend and avoid double paying taxes by buying in my name first we would be all over that order.

Still enjoying the ride!

But over the past few days I've noticed a grinding or rubbing sound? If I turn the wheel to the right (exp turning onto the freeway from the on ramp) i can feel it even in my gas or brake pedal.

Tonight, it was really bad to the point where I just brought it home and parked it. I was at the stop light, making a right turn and it was so loud I could hear it over my music.

I could cry thinking of the possibilities.

Anyone else?

Did you get it figured out? Hopefully it was something minor

Happy one year anniversary to my Bronco! I'll never forget seeing it for the first time, how nervous I was to test drive it, and the huge smile on my face. I wanted a Bronco ever since I was little, and it was also the first brand new car I ever purchased because I always went used. I still love it so much. I hope you all are doing well and enjoying your summer!

Oh boy...thought I had updated here.

My girl has been in the shop for a week. She is on safety hold for the steering gear

They sent someone from Ford out to look it over. They are concerned that they need to start a new round of recalls on them

They are back ordered and they put me on the emergency order list. They have zero timeline for when it will be fixed.

So now I am driving a Ford Danger Ranger from the dealership. I hate it. lol

oh noooooo! i remember there was a small recall for some wildtraks and raptors for the steering gear but they were for later 2022 build dates. ughhh. i hope they figure it out soon. thankfully yours didn't lock up on you and they gave you a loaner.

They basically told me "You are very lucky you were not in a wreck" AWESOME hahaha

Silver lining is you’re not putting any miles on it right now and you weren’t in a wreck. They will make sure it’s good to go when ready.

Yes!! It will all be okay!

Everyone keeps telling me "Hopefully they'll keep it past 30 days and you can just get a new one" People just do not get it. I waited forever for her. It's not just a car. She is more than that to me.
