Here is a cool write up with pictures on some diff and transfer case service. For those of us with some miles and use in "wet" environments, this could be good timing!
Just a reminder- get your registration in for Bronco the Mac. We talked to St. Ignace Friday and we are already ahead of last years registration numbers. There will be the bridge crossing, trail rides, scavenger hunts and the Saturday evening Bronco parade with fireworks added this year. We will post trail ride registration as we get closer to the event. https://stignace.com/event/bronco-the-mac/
Just FYI, we have the old (and new again) better forum software up and running. Jake F got a new server and is able to run the more advanced software. Hopefully we get people back in and using it for MIBC related content! https://forums.michiganbroncos.club/latest
Heading up to Perchville in Tawas, Michigan this weekend. I’m gonna hit up the Chilly cook off and then hit some trails out of Oscoda. If anyone is looking to meet up and do some wheeling let me know. 502 642-7079 is my cell if you want to drop me a line.
Anyone planning a trip to the upper peninsula next year (my apologies, I am not super active in the Michigan group and haven't joined any meet ups yet).
I went to school at Michigan Tech and try to make my way up there every other year or so, but that's also split between summer, fall and winter. Been around quite a bit, but always looking for new things to check out and explore, especially challenges!
Michigan Bronco Club 2024 Ballot
Thank you to those who completed the interest form, making the ballot easier to construct.
Elections will close December 17th. All members, registered across any of the formats, have 1 vote per position for 2024 Officers and Committee positions. If we have a full, diverse group of leaders, it will make the work easier and the club better! Thank you for your interest and participation!
If you did not complete the interest form to get your name on the ballot and are interested in filling a role, please use the "Other" option to write your name in or nominate someone. We are in need of a Treasurer! @Svanhildr is holding two spots, which is a lot to ask for volunteers! As a reminder, we are a registered non-profit. No one makes $.01 from the club, it's just to build a community around our Broncos and provide a group to get out and have fun with! NOTE: If you nominate someone, the position will only go to them if they accept the nomination.
HNY all- I would love to Join and be active, but I am not a FB user and prefer not to be. How would/Best way I go about staying connected with events and rides? Thanks Frank-
I want to welcome the 2024 Michigan Bronco Club Leadership Team! We have almost half of the group from the West side of MI, so that will help continue to spread events across the state. As a reminder, the club is a registered non-profit, 100% volunteer group. We are all members, volunteering to organize and grow the group, for everyone's enjoyment. Thanks to all the volunteers in 2023 and here's to another fun year with our Broncos!
I swapped my “33s” for “35s” from a stock SQ Bronco that I got from another club member. I like the look of the wider tires and narrow flares, but it may make too big of a mess to be practical.
I used-
Stock Badlands 8” wide wheels.
SKS 1.5” spacers
Modified stock mount and rubber snubbers, trimmed .6”
So far they seem a bit quieter and drive a bit better than the KO2s.
Hey, I haven't posted in a while (been swamped with the day job and the photography) but loving the Bronco even though it is just a daily driver at this point in time.
The only mods that I have done to this point are adding a Broaddict Hood Deflector to it as well as my BYOD Rail from Archtype Racing, the Ford aftermarket mirror mounted Pod lights and the towing hitch. Oh yeah, I did add paracord grab handles to the interior.
Lots of milage with the photo business but haven't had an issue yet.
We have Tin Cup stickers available on our web store now, along with some other cool items. The merchandise is our primary funding source for rides and events (we are a non profit and don’t charge for events).
