Oooooooooooo! Any pictures of them in use?
Not yet... just got them mounted. The ones I am running as ditch light though are great... 120 degree spread instead of the typical 60 degree spread of a flood... first pic for reference second with ditch lights on (same style spreader lights).

Okay got them all up and running and got some photos... It really was a dark area before I turned on the lights.... Darkest area I could find near home. Only have low beams, rock lights, ditch lights and rear facing lights.... Light bar is NOT on.

Nope, I was behind him at an event and followed him through some 24 degree (if I recall correctly) side-hills in my HE. It looked pretty damn stable.

Edit: I can't seem to find the CG of the Bronco but I suspect that adding 350+# of unsprung weight did not move it up much.

Didn't see it in your post here but can you tell me what rear tire carrier delete you used here? I like that you can mount things to it like you mounted the rotopax.
Amazing rig you've built.

Fab Four.... It only mounts the 1 gal rotopax so I added some "angled stand offs" so I could mount two 3 gal rotopax.

Okay... It is not well edited but at least it will give you an idea of what the War Eagle (Red/southern Trail) trail was like..... Silver City Idaho... I would like to thank my PPF for giving up it's life in defense of my paint! It was a fun run.

So Ford offers the BRapter edition that is designed for high speed desert running and is pretty darn good at rock crawling.

I think Ford should offer an edition designed for rock crawling and mountain trail running while decent at the desert running.

Desert running requires articulation and the Brapter takes the Bronco to the next level with that long arm suspension and fox coil overs.

Rock crawling and mountain trail running require more clearance, it is performed a slower speeds. Articulation is important but clearance is more important.

Since most Bronco Editions are named after a geographic location I propose this new edition be named the Boulder Mountain Edition.

Besides... Ford already released a rendering of this one back in 2020...

CORRECTION: Ford wasn't responsible for that render. That was the work of Brian. He created the renders for the John Bronco Sells Heritage Edition thread. His work was recognized by Ford's engineers as they contacted him personally wondering how his renders were so accurate before the actual release of the Heritage Edition

And that is the rendering I fell in love with.....

So the real thing next to a raptor....

and next to some Broncos....

Price should be about the same as the BRaptor (at least this one was priced about the same).
It definitely looks sweet. Not a huge fan of the lights, not a huge fan of the lights, mainly because the brights are pretty dang. good on trails at night
