  1. Tennessee WTB B&O Front mid/kick speaker

    It is my "expert" understanding (and i say that with a grin) that the 25 / 26 B&O system has 2 additional speakers and amplifies the rear channels and possibly the center. The question is: did they make the rear pods coaxial (2 more speakers) or did they do that to the front kick panels? In a...
  2. What boots or shoes do you wear when wheeling?

    Merrill - MOAB :)
  3. Tried turning off Auto start/stop with Forscan with the 2025 Badlands

    Been running this for 5 months with no issues. Amazon.com: UltraEra Auto Start Stop Eliminator Power Window Roll up Closer Module Compatible with 2021-2025 Ford Bronco Up and Down Window Lifter Remote Locking Unit Module Accessories (NOT for Bronco Sport) : Automotive I thought the "windows...
  4. Remove beauty rings to mount new tires?

    Discount tire removed mine when they mounted new tires.
  5. Raptor Wheels - help needed

    My 24 HPR came with wheels that do not have the trim rings: I have been contemplating an upgrade. Almost all of the wheels I like are Ford OEM: Which brings me to a question, Are all Raptor wheels the same as far as fit to the Bronco? I'd expect they'd all have a 6x135 bolt...
  6. Basic B&O speakers upgrade - complete (for now) in Bronco Raptor

    Using a Dremel I cut out the pins from the plugs that go into the subwoofer. The pins were butt spliced to new speaker wires and heat shrink tubing then sealed the butt splices. Both + wires and - wires were then combined and placed in the subwoofer push terminals. Extensive testing was run...
  7. Basic B&O speakers upgrade - complete (for now) in Bronco Raptor

    The Raptor audio upgrade is done for now. I replaced all 5 of the 4-inch speakers with Infinity 4032's. No Bass blockers we used. This made a decent improvement in sound quality (more presence / life like / better highs). After some pondering I decided on JBL601CF components and did not use...
  8. What did you do TO / WITH your Bronco today? 👨🏻‍🔧🧰🚿🛠

    Finished replacing the crappy ford subwoofer, with a decent sub. essentially a drop in and splice replacement. Also added some sound deadening.
  9. What did you do TO / WITH your Bronco today? 👨🏻‍🔧🧰🚿🛠

    Installed @Hothead Headliners over the OEM headliner in my Raptor. Seems "a little" quieter, stereo may sound "a little" improved, looks A LOT nicer. Easy to install. One thing to note: If you have the grab handles denoted below, your hand may brush up against the new headliner.
  10. Raptor C Bow brace kit installed 2024 Wildtrak?

    The pods have a MUCH smaller area to fit in with the C brace. Ford pods for 4" spaekers (same with Base / Lux / & Raptor) 👍 Mabett and other 3rd party pods fit everything BUT the raptor (because of the C brace. MTI makes pods that fit the Raptor (I saw them for 270.00$ unloaded).
  11. Raptor C Bow brace kit installed 2024 Wildtrak?

    The raptors do come with the B&O, but the pods are the exact same as the base pods. Through 2024 the rear speakers for the B&O are the exact same as the base, but that may have changed in 2025.
  12. Winch in Arizona Desert?

    AZ raptor owner here, (Jeep Rubicon X > Wildtrack > Raptor). Subjectively, a winch looks natural on a Wrangler, seems out of place to me on a Bronco. Just my opinion. Most of the Jeeps in our 4x4 club have them, never seen one used yet. That said if you do a lot of hard wheeling OUTSIDE of...
  13. Raptor C Bow brace kit installed 2024 Wildtrak?

    The STOCK rear pods fit just fine. If you add the raptor brace, no pods will fit in the OEM area EXCEPT MTI raptor pods.
  14. Question on 37 tires

    Mostly 😄 but you WILL pay attention when parking next to your wife's car 😁 Think so...... At least an inch or more. I could slide / skoot into my wildtrack (Sasquatch). It's step on on the steps to enter the raptor. You might want to test drive both. Before I got the raptor I was worried...
