Just returned from a 1500 mile road trip to go fly fishing at Pyramid Lake in Nevada for a week. Always my happy place. Since I have posted last I recently added DV8 Metal fenders, ARB Rear bumper, ARB Skid plates, AFE Intake, AFE Hi-Tuck Exhaust, Ford Tuner, DV8 Rock sliders, Oracle Taillights, Trailrax Roof Rack, Upgraded to takeoff Badlands Bilstein suspension and wheels. Really love the Bronco!

That does not suck my friend. Looks awesome Catching that on a fly rod must have been a blast.

I would not consider 225°F unloaded to be "normal"--though perhaps the new normal for Advantek axles. I rarely saw those temperatures towing my fifth wheel in a 2010 F-150 and a 2015 F-250 with 9K pounds behind it.

But to your point, it is also about understanding fluid life and for all I know, Ford had Dana do something different and the temperatures for the Bronco will be in the 200°F range.

(For me) to prevent having to do heat cycles during break-in after re-gearing , I simply have my gears REM Isotropic polished which eliminates the need for actual break-in, though you do have to change the oil.

Funny. We used that process 40 years ago on turbine blades. That is a much fancier name but I'm quite sure the process is the same. It was fun watching the parts sink in and eventually pop up somewhere else in the tub.

Took Pokey out to Rock Candy Mountain to stretch his legs

Coming down this trail in Baja Mode got a notice that my passenger rear was losing pressure. Found a spot to turn around and found a flat spot to put the spare on

good news, if you were wondering is that the scissor jack did its job perfectly. Bad news is now I’m waiting at the tire shop for the repair. TPMS in the spare did not work correctly, so I will need to check into that but all in all not too bad of a day………
