We took KRAKEN and the old 450 Yamaha Rhino for a mild off road cruise around the farm.

I did a small level to my already lifted Badlands while on my 600 mile fishing offroading roadtrip and then came home to get a new windshield cause it got fishnickered on said roadtrip...
Was a long busy last couple days!

Brought the Bronco used - and it's bugged me since day one. One of the trail sight bolts have always been rusty for some reason..

Figured yesterday was a good day for the small things. Little Apple Cider Vinegar / baking soda soak and much better.

What MY is your Bronco? Early MY'22, there was a short run of Bronco builds that had rusty trail sight bolts. There was an issue with the supplier's coating. Dealers were supposed to change out affected builds.

Spent the evening with @SPVPARTS installing some Rigid bumper pocket lights. I cannot recommend John and SPV enough, absolutely great company to work with.

I like those ditch lights. Seems like everything on the market right now is all the same - Square or round. I like that these are a bit of a combination of both. How's the light output at night?

I guess I never noticed that the shape isn’t common for ditch lights!

The output is very good for the money. I first had these set up pointing straight forward. The glare off the hood was too distracting and resulted in reduced visibility. That was when I made these brackets to try to raise the lights up a little higher, hoping to reduce the portion of the beam that hits the hood. I never actually my tested if the glare was reduced when pointing forward, I decided to instead point these to the sides to pick up where the stick headlights and fogs leave off.

Now I have close to 180 degrees of consistent illumination. When my brights are on at the same time, I don’t notice a brightness transition between the brights and the ditch lights.

These definitely make a huge difference in my ability to notice deer approaching the road when I’m taking the back roads to work in the early morning.

For $40 I’d definitely recommend a set! The hardest part was figuring out which wires I still needed to keep the mode changing functionality when hooked up to the aux switches instead of the supplied switch.

The @JcrOffroad Spare Tire Rack ships with a blend of steel and stainless steel hardware. Needless to say, the Steel Flange Nuts rusted to shit and seized themselves onto the Stainless Button Head Bolts. Sub par guys, especially for the crew that you sell these to and the environments we experience. Barely over a year old.

Long story short, the rack has been removed and will be repurposed. I still need the additional capacity of the Rotos, the Rock Slide tire setup has replaced the JCR Rack.

Is that an aftermarket bumper or did you add grip and lights to the stock one?

That looks like the factory bumper. I'd also be curious to see some pictures of those lights in the corner, and what ones @Boreal went with.

I didn't think anything would fit there, but clearly I was wrong.

I have gotten to the point where regardless of the vehicle, anything on the outside gets switched to S/S if it is not already provided. I'm fortunate enough to live close to a farm supply store that carries an extensive variety of both SAE and MM hardware.

I gotchu

OEM Steel Bumper. DD SSC1 and SSC2

Top of Page 7 in the Build Thread

There was certainly some Nuance required for fitment. Using the Hitchpod wiring as a trigger, the SSC1s come on with reverse. The SSC2 is on an Aux switch - works as additional light for swapping boots at night, backing up, loading the bikes late, “you got your high beams on”, etc. Love the setup overall

Tested my new dune flag at Corolla Beach NC. Will be using it at Silver Lake later this summer.

I installed mine without removing the soft top. After removing the windows, I just removed the 2 Torx+ bolts on the plastic piece closest to the pillar, allowing it to be lifted (but not removed). Then I used a small ratcheting wrench (10mm I believe) to remove the bolt under the plastic piece. The other bolts closer to the back come off quite easily by just lifting the back of the soft top.

I have these. I think they are a must for people with a soft top who actually take the soft top off. It is so easy to scratch the tub rim.

Installed the Ford OEM steel, full body bash plates. With points and the sale they were having, cost me less than $240. 2 hours to install everything so not to difficult.
