  1. Talk me out of a bad idea? Machining wheel bore.

    The first link Looks like an alloy version of Chevy truck rally wheels. But yes you can have them machined to fit.
  2. GIVEAWAY ALERT! TeraFlex 3.5" RT3 Suspension System with Falcon Fast-Adjust Coilover Shocks

    Following! Still running stock control arms with a lesser set of aftermarket coilovers on 37’s. I need an upgrade!
  3. Is the JKS max clearance kit always necessary for 37 tires?

    That’s great if one can afford the extra $30-$40k price tag. The Raptors are definitely awesome. A little wide though.
  4. The 5-tire PERFECT rotation schedule for MAX tread life and value.

    Right rear is not the main drive tire but is the tire that slips first without a locked or limited slip differential because the driveshaft is trying to lift the right rear during acceleration. Ask any drag racer. The fronts wear first because they do the turning and geometry is a compromise and...
  5. 2021 2.3 Turbo failure 350 miles outside of warranty

    I agree. Even though parts are available, everyone including Caterpillar (who I work for) dealerships buy re-manufactured or new. We used to rebuild them here all the time. If the impeller didn’t contact the housing long enough to damage either, it’s just replacing bearings and seals on the shaft.
  6. Flat tow equipment needed to flat tow the 2021 Bronco?

    Surely you leave your rear camera on when towing. ? I actually leave the rear microphone on when I first drive off to listen for odd noises. Caught a safety chain that had come loose one time and my Jeep Gladiator parking brake had automatically set another.
  7. Rough Country Squared Fender Flares

    I wouldn’t let that stop you. The rock rails are easily cut at the ends. You simply take the plastic end cap out, cut whatever length you want off (preferably at the same angle), and then put the cap back in. I did it so my mud flaps wouldn’t hit my 37ā€ tires.
  8. Fluid on tie rod boot

    Looks like blinker fluid. sorry, it’s late, and I’m a smartass. And I resisted a joke about sticking fingers in wet places and sniffing…. 😬
  9. Diff Drop with 37s - Have you had any problems with your CV axles

    Explain what plunge is for clarity to the masses please. And on the other thread also. And what can happen if there is too much plunge. I get it but some might not.
  10. The 5-tire PERFECT rotation schedule for MAX tread life and value.

    Yes, The last time I rotated tires the truck wouldn’t re-learn their location. Had to buy a tool. Two previous times it learned it in a few minutes of driving. Not sure if one of the stupid Ford updates caused this or what. But this worked. https://a.co/d/0b15ek3p
  11. I'll bet you didn't know...

    Crossover…. too close to crossdresser. šŸ˜‚ Yall be careful out there 🤣
  12. My bait and switch oil change experience.

    I wonder how many ā€œsyntheticā€ oil changes are done with regular oil? I mean how do you know exactly what oil they are really using? I change my own. I was taking my company truck (F650) to the local Ford dealer for oil changes and one time (after many oil changes) decided to check the...
  13. Need Some 4 Door Roof Panel Recommendations

    I ordered all the bags when I ordered our Bronco. But rarely use the (very expensive) mid panel bag. The door bags are awesome because you put them on the doors before removing them which provides handles to grab and lots of protection while removing and installing.
  14. Where does your coolant level sit? Max, Min or in between?

    It’s a surge tank. All that really matters is it’s not so high that it over-flows when hot and not so low that it allows air in the system when it gets cold. The level in the tank being a little higher or lower won’t affect cooling one bit. But I would add a tad bit of coolant just because...
