The PNW Bronco Group

I was planning on doing the WABDR section 1 next week but a rescent report on onX says it's permanently closed????

I doubt that it's perm closed buy wondering if anyone knows what the status of section 1 is..

Thanks!

Has anyone verified which rail yard they go to when shipped to Puget Sound area WA? I've seen some mention the BNSF one in Renton and the Union Pacific one in Kent. The tracker saying "arrived in Kent" would suggest the UP one, but I'm seeing a lot of Chevys and GMCs there. Maybe the Fords are buried a bit. The tracker saying BNSF has been pulling it this whole time would suggest Renton, and I saw at least a bunch of Jeeps there, but the fence makes it difficult to find Fords.

I'm sure you can see why I'm conflicted so if anyone knows what their yard was, I'd love to know.

Just want to say Hi to everyone. Purchased a used '21 Black Diamond, 2dr, 2.3 Manual.
Already started the mods, with the Eibach Pro Truck coil overs, OME front upper control arms, a set of take-off oem steelies and a set of 255/85R176 MT Baja Boss A/Ts.
Plenty more to come..!
I look forward to meeting some many of you and wheelin' together!
Cheers!

Snow Wheeling Sunday March 3

Updated with pictures for the trip.

We finally have snow for snow wheeling, my buddy and I are going to go snow wheeling Sunday March 3 on Tonga Ridge. Let me know if you're interested in joining.

Have a rear plastic bumper in perfect condition. Free in South Seattle.

Hello PNW Bronco group!
I am eagerly awaiting my Bronco arrival in the next few weeks.

My wife told me about a Bronco meet up in Florence, OR in August. She is booking our summer camping reservations for the coast.

Is this group associated with the meetup in Florence?

Just listed my Modular Bumper with Safari Bar. Perfect condition in South Seattle.

My friend and I are doing a snow wheeling trip this upcoming weekend and wanted to open it up to Bronco6G peeps. We are meeting Saturday, Corrected (Dec 16) 10:00 AM outside the Naches Tavern in Greenwater and heading back Sunday. There is a spot with an amazing Rainier Mountain view we are hoping to get to (pic with the Tacoma, pre bronco rig) If you are interested in going but don't have snow wheeling experience that's not a problem as long as your willing to listen and learn.

I have been snow wheeling for a few years now and have ~15-20 trips experience. I have never had an issue with getting unrecoverably stuck . I go out equipped: multiple vehicles, winch, snatch blocks, extra winch line, traction boards, hard and soft shackles, tree savers, shovels, lots of warm gear, multiple sleeping bags, good clothing, satellite coms, etc.

Things you need to have

• Min tire size of 33" tires, 35" recommended, Sasquatch height or higher.
• Willing to air down to 6-10 PSI. I have personally ran the stock Sasquatch wheel and tire combo at 6-8 psi in the snow. If your not comfortable getting into the single digits in the snow then it may be a really difficult trip. You do have to be aware of how you drive even in soft snow at this pressures, you may even have to reseat a bead or switch to a spare. It is really hard to understate how important really low pressures are in the snow!
• A shovel.
• Good attitude, the trip may contain type 2 fun! We will get stuck, have to dig, winch, etc. and we will get out! The good and bad of snow wheeling is you can almost always dig your way out with enough work. If anyone gets stuck or breaks we are all in this to get them recovered and back on the way.
• Good clothing, gloves, boots, sleeping bag(s) etc. I am often in the cold but rarely cold. Layers are essential, you can literally be in tee shirt in the sun one minute and wearing everything you have not long after.
• A good tow strap (preferably dynamic but not essential) and shackles.

Things that are helpful but you don't need

• A GMRS radio
• A winch
• Bead lock or bead grip rims
• Traction boards
• Lockers: Broncos sand mode works really well in the snow
• Satellite communicator

01 W Park St, North Bend, WA 98045 is the meeting place. 9 a.m.

Easy cruise up the North Fork Road for some scenery and lunch by the river. Gravel road with pot holes and puddles.

Yakima River Canyon, November 3, 2023

Looking forward to a group that is not based in Portland or Seattle.

Hey Everyone!

We're hosting a run in Central Oregon called Broncos on the Butte. It will be a day run (potentially a snow run) at Edison Butte OHV. If you've never been on this trail or Central Oregon to wheel, here Is your chance. It's going to be so much fun. Trail rating Is difficult to estimate, but in the summer I'd say it's a 6 out of 10. In the winter with snow It can vary greatly (little bit of snow could be easier, lots of snow, harder).

After the Edison Butte Run, we will be gathering at Boneyard Pub (1955 NE Division St, Bend, OR 97701) for beers, food, and raffle. If you don't want to do the run, no worries! We'd love to have you at Boneyard to have a beer with your Bronco Brotheren. We estimate to be back by 7:30pm

So far we have Metal Tech and Technique Vehicle Outfitters sponsoring swag, but more to come. For details and updates, follow the link:

You're invited my fellow Bronco owning friends who hate the face book.

Hello everyone,

First post on 6G trying to get more involved with this community. This pic is from last weekend, took my basesquatch up to Wilkeson for a little fun!

Forscan help in Portland? After 2yrs of waiting I finally got my Bronco Badlands. Would like to meet up with someone that has Forrscan to: eliminate the double honk, sport mode, and raptor style headlights. Happy to compensate for the assistance.

Best
Will

The Bronco is finally on a rail car and heading this way. We had previously planned a trip to Leavenworth in a few weeks and it may be its first adventure. Any recommendations for a nice calm trail ride to take the wife on?

Finally took delivery of my 2 door OBX Sasquatch after a 2+ year wait. I’m selling 5 factory wheels and tires with TPMS asking ($2100) and factory sidesteps ($250) live in Vancouver,Wa .

5 Black SAS Rims For Sale $700 for all 5.

I also have 4 SAS 315/70r17 GoodYears for sale as well if interested As they will be taken off Bronco tomorrow.

Mud flaps anyone? In my waiting excitement I bought front and rear Ford mud flaps that I did not realize would not fit on my factory rock rails. Don’t want to pay to ship them back, $100 for both front and rear. Pick up in S Tacoma

Made it through Stampede Pass today starting at I-90. There was only a little snow left that was easy to get through. Easy drive and great views!

How long did it take for your Bronco to ship here? From built to dealer?
