The rock rails look to be mounted to the frame and the pinch weld.

Hate to say it, but that still looks like mounted to the body to me.

Yes, looks like body mounted. It would not be a good idea to have something tied into the body and frame as the body actually has some movement about the frame. What I'm seeing in this picture is mounted to the body, but I'm also not there underneath it. What I can see bolted in the picture is the body and not the frame rail.

Not sure if this has been mentioned here, I haven't had a chance to read through the middle pages yet. I started then came back to page one for the update.

My other group, Bronco Babes noted Shelby will be joining BN to lend her services! It really has me excited. I hope someone told her to pack up all her flannel!!

Btw reading your update @FTBronco9 was awesome loved it! Can't wait although I got a BB with mid. I'm def jelly of that High Package and all the cool features. I hope later Ford will offer that to the lower trims!

You might want to look into RockSlide Engineerings step sliders

Thank you!!!! I will definitely give those a look!

Not sure what demos you will run into out there, but if you see a Base, Big Bend, Or Outer Banks will you take a picture like this?
Hey, I keep on trying.

I just can't unsee this now. May have to change trims, pardon the pun.

Haha. Maybe the Badlands is the Barbie Bronco instead of the OBX....appears to be anatomically correct.

Pictures of UCA clearance and center hub to fender measurements on all models would definitely be welcome.

So far we've got measurements on a Badlands and an FE, both at 22 3/4.
Would be interested to see how that changes based on motor and 2/4dr.

Thank you!!!! I will definitely give those a look!

Keep in mind the difference between these and the factory power steps you will find on Ford pick ups and SUVs is that these are actual rock sliders and they will protect your Bronco along with giving you a step. I plan on getting them for my FE Bronco because if you look closely they stick out farther than the factory rock slider at the pinch seem. As a Added benefit they should help protect against door dings from idiots.

This is incredibly stupid and I'm sorry in advance but what's the arm rest in the back of the badlands mgv 4 door? Is that fold down in the center or are they counting something else (like the door?) as an armrest.

I have two kids that need some sort of physical separation in the back seat so they aren't tempted to hit each other. Parenthood is such a joy sometimes. Fold down arm rest? Perfect.

If not, I'll just need to get one of those bootleg rear center console like things.

This won't effect my order at all I'm just trying to mentally prepare myself. Thanks

I have the same question and issues. Leather has 2 rear cup holders but mgv doesn’t? huh? My kids breakfast is going to go everywhere on the drive to school

Ok, so I was talking to a Ford guy about the top and the roof rack. Nothing is changing in the design of the top. The only thing that might change is the bolt placements for the rack to lessen the center of gravity.

Was it Esteban that you talked to?

Posting this again.

I appreciate this re-post. My follow-up is specific to the FE which will have power seats in the front. What does that mechanism look like as compared to the manual seats in this video. Is there any difference? Is there more room entering on the passenger side? With only a month or so to decide and get my order in, I'm hoping for more info to come out as these events occur. Especially with the FE's in attendance.

 

[FTBronco9]

Not sure if I mentioned this. But I was asking specifically about the bash/skid plates under the Wildtrak and I was told that the Wildtrak comes with standard bash plates underneath that are 1/8” thick steel. But he didn’t know how thick the upgraded bash plates were. I was asking if they were 1/4”. He was going to ask someone but never got around to it by the time we got back from our ride.

Also here is a comparison photo I had made a while back, of a CJ-7 vs new Bronco rear seat entry space. The Bronco seems lacking. Hopefully by production some designer has come up with something better in terms of access.

Looks to me like there's more track to go forward there.

The struggle is real. Is the base cloth the same? No cupholders back there?

This is the best of all.

Mr. DeLonge, please report to Bronco6G
