BRONCO PROBLEMS AREN'T EVERYONES BUSINESS

[66Fan]

So, I get it... your Bronco has a problem; and your personality requires that you would receive a "more than sufficient" response from everyone on this site. Sure, I get it 1) why does this happen to me; 2) you guys' better watch for the same thing to happen, with your new Bronco; and 3) this is the only way I know how to get attention!

After all my collected experience, with cars and trucks, of every kind, I think I might be able to be of help:

Damn it, my engine dropped a valve -- so, you know that these engines don't assemble themselves, right? If you dropped a valve, the reason is likely that one-half of the little valve retainers was installed incorrectly and has now come out of its seat. The result is that a valve cannot be held in place, without these little "keepers." SOLUTION: It's under WARRANTEE, so let the dealer fix it for you, likely free of charge!

My outside tie rod broke -- when I was running a trail in my Bronco, to try out my new 40" x 13.5" tires. Well, damn the bad luck! Not only is the Bronco DYNA 190 and 210, a bit fragile for off-trail and rock climbing, but the tie rods reach an additional +/- 2" than those same parts on the narrower Ranger. This causes even more leverage to the weak tie rods... and increases the chances of breaking the threaded portion of the rod. Performance parts are made in support of harsher workloads... and Spicer has recently announced their new DANA 44 replacement for our factory parts. WARRANTY -- maybe, maybe not, depending on your warrantee repair consultant (and sometimes he Ford rep).

My factory hardtop has a squeak! If you can't figure out how to fix a simple squeaky pin, then you should go back to driving ford Fusions.

The plastic on my soft to is wrinkled! Of course, it is... it's just a cheap soft top, with a cheap plastic window. If you had waited, until sometime in 2023, you could have ordered the more expensive Modular Top (the glass side window on this top, wouldn't have wrinkled!

The plastic window on my soft to scratches easily. The ice scraper scratches it; and glued on stickers... stick to it. Warranty -- maybe if the dealer did it, YES. Maybe if the Owner did it, NO.

There are many other stupid questions, being asked over-and-over. Please search this site, for the answers that you need, instead of requesting the same OBVIOUS answers.

Can we please get back to how much better four doors look compared to two

 

[acetdeucy]

Jesus, talk about over engineering the problem! LOL. Just joking....

I lubed my pins with a minimal amount of Vaseline.

Yepper. There's a lot of ways to get it quiet.

GREAT... I also have a solution for that, but I'm not sure you'll like it!

Well the Bronco forum overall is mostly just a community marketplace these days.

"Hey I bought this bolt-on."

"Cool, where can I buy that bolt-on?"

@Cheshire Who already bought two Broncos (one sold) and can help everyone else.... Know he bought two Broncos and can tell you why your build is wrong (okay, I don't get how that is helpful, but it's encouraged content, apparently).

But I do love the OP being called out to either not comment or not read the threads.... By people who could have chosen to not comment or not read this thread. Am I missing the irony? Nahhhhh, I think there's enough to go around.

If this place was 5% as salty, snarky, abusive, educational and informative as the HAMB, the puke reaction would have been replaced with literal tears. Sometimes hard-earned wisdom comes with a dash of salt. And asking others for their wisdom comes with first having to take a shot of tequila.

What if I'm not a tequila drinker?

That took care of the pins clicking, now I think it's the seals I can hear, primarily the ones under the clam shell.
Any ideas there? Some type of dry lube (baby powder or ???) or a glaze coat of wd40 sprayed on a rag then wiped on the seals?
PPF applied to the bed rails???

So, I tried to be a problem solver, you know……one of those fixit guys. I cut my squeaky pins off flush with my new Milwaukee sawzall. No more squeaks bitches…..and no more MIC top after getting up to speed on old ‘87. Wonder if that’s covered under warranty?

Your post is a post about complaining and you’re complaining.

You're in Arizona, that's why Mezcal was made as the worse version of tequila.
