Video: Much better turn out offroading (mudding) the SEMA Bronco Black Diamond this time.

Last video I did off road with the bronco ended with some unanswered G.O.A.T Mode issues.
Luckily this time around was much more fun and no random error codes to ruin the day.

Cool video. Glad to see you mudslinging!!! It's what they're built for, get out and enjoy them.

Total offrosding noob question here
If the water or mud line goes above the bottom of the door, can it find its way in? I imagine that the doors aren't liquid tight

There is an official water fording depth that is listed somewhere. Typically water can go quite far past the bottom of the door seal line, I've had water approaching the door handles on 90's trucks that didn't ingress water through the door seals.

What tires were those, they didn't want to clean out that clay like mud no matter the wheel speed, must steer clear of those!

What steps are those on there? I like them. Look like some kind of rock slider/steps. They are small and look like they do not hang down at all.

They are pretty tight. The Bronco can go through water up to 3 ft deep I think.

Nice looking sliders, but they appear to be body mount rather than frame, right?

Curious what the criteria is for maximum water fording depth? I would have thought it meant the depth that the truck would continue to run (air intake height and breather valves etc)...not necessarily the depth that there wouldn't be any water in side the cabin. I don't really know for sure though.

It depends one how long you are sitting in the water. Move through without stopping and it generally isn't a problem. Stop for an extended period of time or get stuck and it will get in.

I just hope you all picked up that water bottle that you eventually just drove over.

Nothing makes me more upset than trash on the trails.
