All true, but I have no front locker so some TC when on three wheels would be nice

HaHa, I had a 70? Jeepster, agree with the POS comment, gearing sucked. Good times nonetheless.

I seldom use GOAT modes. Sport is handy up or down two lane steep, winding mountain passes, the throttle response and gearing fit perfectly. I've used Mud and Ruts, but not sure of the effectiveness. I'm wondering if Rock Crawl, which my BB doesn't have, would improve traction in those three...

I'm no tech guy and am a bit scared of electronic mods, but I went to the Flashcal website and this looks cool. For now all I'd want is to add Rock Crawl, eliminate double honk and maybe ASS . Could a non-techy handle it?

When I was a kid my brother had a '51 Willys Wagon with a flathead Ford V-8, he took me to some super neat places. When I could drive I got a '55 Willys Wagon with a Ford 289. Since then I've had a few dozen rigs, only one 2WD (other than RVs), backcountry is bliss

Well, that explains why my 23 Explorer (wEBB) is always clickity clacking and my 21 Bronco 2.3 (VACB) does not. Mystery solved. @Ducati1098 is like the Neil DeGrasse Tyson of the Ford universe.

The way God intended Broncos to be..

This I believe to be fact after clearing all the fog. My stock BB with 255 SL Duelers the sticker said 35psi. I switched to 265/70x17 LRE Falkens and a forum recommended table said to run 44 psi to get the same load carrying capacity as the 255 SLs at 35 psi. Just couldn't force myself to do...

Love me some stickers...;

Thanks... this is the bottom line for me, hate to use that locker when I shouldn't have to.

No rear sway bar.

I too moved a RVI from a Jepp to the Bronco and love it. Mine is an RVI II a friend has an RVI III which seems to be a bit glitchier. I used a cheap tow bar on my old Jeep and the Bronco for a while. No issues, but it was a $100 2" ball type rated for 5000 #. Towing my 5300# $40K Bronco with...

Thanks to @87-Z28 for the great technical explanations , I revisit this thread every 6 months expecting an answer to this : "Best of both worlds, or worst compromise ever. All depends on your use case." So I'll ask directly: 90% pavement, 8% easy dirt, 1% pushing it and 1% getting pissed at...

You guys on this thread are next level, but I do have a suggestion for basic handles that comes from experience: Do not get the Bartec hard grip/cloth strap handles. Nothing against Bartec as a company but hose handles bang against the rollbar constantly when off road. I replaced with simple...

Well, the issue still exists for anyone out there with a Ford 6.2, Valvoline still lists VO88 as the correct filter.
