they will likely not ship with the rails because it will fly around in the vehicle during a crash
Are you expecting the shipper to crash your Bronco during transit?
:ROFLMAO:

I think he meant that Ford may have decided not to include it from the factory because:

  1. Ford may have been required to mount objects to it during crash testing
  2. Ford did not want liability when somebody mounts a heavy object and sues for injury in an accident.

What accessories I mount to my dash are between me, the designer and manufacturer of the “Driver’s Magic Assistant dash-mounted Bowling Ball”, and God.

I guess I was wrong when I thought I still lived in a little place I like to call AMERICA.

We have seen multiple pictures of a single threaded hole smack dab in the center of the dash.
Just saw that in the thread linked above. One small screw seems a little(a lot) sketch for mounting things like CB/UHF radios.

Plus words by the screw hole saying something like "mount your junk here".

Oh... for anyone who’s every mounted mobile radios or similar equipment in a vehicle, that dash mount never seemed adequate.

That’s for radio heads, or go pros, or cell phones.

The bigger stuff will certainly need to be mounted to at least the two the Bronco bolts next to the shifter...

I believe I saw it in the last (snowy) 2door roof removal video last week.

I can just see the whole JC Whitney catalog riding along on the dash. Maybe it’s for the best.

There’s 3 threaded mounting holes. 1 in middle and 1 on each end of the upper dash.
