How to make my Bronco better offroad?

[td11]

I'm still trying to figure out how after the first time you take a vehicle off road, it already needs a body shop.

I, too, need pictures to make sense of this.

I've gone "off roading" in a Toyota Avalon with two and a half inches of ground clearance. And while I do have a couple of scratch marks on the undercarriage, I certainly didn't need a body shop.

Did you roll it or something?

Just rubbing against trees. I was driving cautiously as I don’t want to wreck the Bronco.

If you look in a mirror you will quickly be able to deduce what the problem is.

Hi folks. I have a stock Bronco First Edition. I finally took it to a trail yesterday and my friends son was also there so we off-roaded together. He has a 1999 Jeep Cherokee XJ, also mostly stock and he was doing way better than me offroad. (Getting up hills I couldn’t, going over logs I couldn’t) He dosent have lockers or solid axles so I was confused. I need to find out how to make my Bronco better or I may just trade it for an XJ. Also does anyone have a good body shop to recommend because my Bronco is very beat up from offroad use.

You should trade it straight across for the XJ now.

I just joined because I have never needed the forum before this.

The error lies between the seat and steering wheel. Check for ID 10 T error code.

Ik they may be legends offroad but XJs don’t have near the luxury of my Broncos. They are trail rats.

Pictures of First Edition and XJ are needed for reference please.

Well it’s not my XJ and the owner lives a bit away but I’ll update everyone with pictures as soon as I get them.

It is nice to be in a luxurious vehicle while you carefully rub it up against trees

I’m just worried somethings broken on my Bronco, because I would think it could beat an XJ.

Nothing wrong with the Bronco. 100% ID 10 T error root cause.

It is.

All XJ's have solid axles even 2wd ones

Then I must have been wrong there.

Can someone please explain to me why everyone is saying I am a troll. All I did was go off-road with my Bronco an an XJ and, after some bad performance from the Bronco, am concerned something is broken. Why is everyone in so much disbelief about that?

Problem is a defective nut behind the steering wheel. Common issue with new Broncos.
