I see you were going for something close to your wheels. Epic fail. Return to sender. On my old CJ’s the color you were hoping for was called Spice.

Pull the FP winch setup off of your Badlands and transfer it to a Raptor. It works just fine. I even drilled the plate to accept my parking sensors. No issues.

I’m guessing since I paid $67,500 for my Braptor, this argument has already been lost. Please feel free to look for my 2 year old post where price paid doubters needed proof of my purchase price if you too fall into that camp.

I loaded mine on my 2023 BRaptor myself when it was new. I’ve never had any warranty issues.

I’ve owned a 4 door Outer Banks SAS 2.7, a 2 door Badlands SAS 2.7 and my current Braptor. The Braptor is absolutely the best version of the Bronco that I’ve owned. I’m now 2 years and 24,000 miles into the Braptor. I have zero plans to sell.

I use a cordless/electric ratchet to remove all 10 bolts. It’s long enough that I can remove the rear 8 while standing at the tailgate. Takes less than 1 minute, then I go to each rear door and remove the 2 upper bolts. Nearly zero effort. 1 ratchet, 1 torx bit and less than 2 minutes max, done...

I had these on my 2 door (it came with them). When I bought my Raptor I went with TuffSkinz. Way more coverage and extremely durable.

Wouldn’t explain the chirp at idle in park.

I have a complete set, but I won’t ship them. Too bulky. I’m in Connecticut.

Sounds like the torque converter failed.

Slipstream for me

You can (and it sucks but is easy to do) purchase a factory visor with Homelink built in. My Raptor has the keypad, and I have seen posts where the battery is replaceable even though it says it’s not (though I haven’t needed to try it yet).

Installed a SlipStream for security. All large panels easily removable to give me full access to the rear cargo with seats folded. As far as my hardtop goes. I can remove or install in about 10 minutes. I have a ceiling mounted hoist where I leave it hanging when off. And I remove the bolts...

But that one comes with factory hood struts and a heated steering wheel!!

The silver bolts are for mounting the brackets behind the plastic panels and for mounting the top to those brackets. I had to trim my plastic covers once the soft top was installed so that they would fit back into place. So be ready for that. All the black bolts are used to mount all the exposed...
