  1. Just got a recall notice: harness in the engine bay

    Thank you and apologies, thought that was a link to the thread in its entirety. I may just tackle this myself for peace of mind. Just need to source some high temp split loom.
  2. Just got a recall notice: harness in the engine bay

    I gave my engine bay a quick look on the passenger's top side and didn't see anything super alarming. Only thing I saw was the spot pictured below. Pretty sure that's not "the one" causing the recall as there's not really anything surrounding that spot to catch on fire. Maybe someone in...
  3. Driving BLIND in heavy rain!

    Have to agree, as a former resident of Florida, it rains HARD. Texas rains are like a light Florida sprinkle most of the time but there have been exceptions. I drove across Alligator Alley during a tropical storm in a 2500 pound RWD sports car pushing 600hp. It was interesting and my...
  4. Ran 2/3rds the roof and a cargo cover

    Interesting! I've certainly done the reverse, front and passenger's panels removed but rear in place. I have an EZ Trunk installed which won't keep out water although I'd likely not run without a top if rain is threatening. I do have a sun shade installed 100% of the time, panels or no...
  5. Bronco Raptor Spark Plug help

    They're $9.32 each on Rockauto.com.
  6. Ford offering Navigation after trial - is it worth it?

    I'm almost embarrassed to say it but I went to wash the mud off the Bronco the other day. I turned the hose on and got hit with that slightly metallic smell of cool water running through a hot hose which brought back a lot of memories including, of course, drinking from a hose when we were...
  7. Ford offering Navigation after trial - is it worth it?

    Pro tip if it hasn't been mentioned, you can download areas in Google Maps to your phone so that if entering an area with spotty or no cell service, your maps still work. I have no idea why car companies continue to offer NAV other than to possibly have the equipment installed so they can track...
  8. Product Update: powoq overhead sunglasses holder is now live!

    Have one, not sure if it's your brand or not (it's a few years old) and I do use it for sunglasses as it tends to keep them out of other bins where they might get knocked around or rub against all the other stuff I keep in those. So it works well and I wouldn't be without one myself...
  9. Simple hard top removal question……

    Now that you mention it, I do actually have mad camera skills (really) but that's for another time :). Here's a link to the stickers: Stickerfab
  10. Simple hard top removal question……

    If I It's a sticker but fairly thick. It holds up reasonably well. I'll see if I can remember where I got them and post it up here. They're pre-cut too so installation is easy.
  11. Simple hard top removal question……

    There are indeed. I have converted mine with tool-less knurled thumbscrew bolts (see pic). They're the generic e-bay version as the bolts needed to be cut shorter to work and wanted cheap to make sure they worked. Rockworkx makes the original version and I have theirs holding down the rest...
  12. Simple hard top removal question……

    I bought a cheap winch system off of Amazon and use straps that run the length of the top. Super easy to get on and off. Took a bit of engineering and math on my end as I have 16 ft ceilings in my garage but it works great for storing my top and my roof rack separately.
  13. Simple hard top removal question……

    My knees hurt just watching the video.
