Should be a great ride!

I’m trying some different mounting options on the JD Marz Accessory Mount. It’s a great design. So far I am using one of the single side mounts, but I think I’m going to mount the full mount (my early build is missing the M8 rivnuts in the roll bar). Here is a link to JD Marz site and the...

Great to see the club growing!

Almost all the water/alternator issues are from getting stuck with the alternator submerged. Drummond Island has lots of water and now we have had hundreds of Broncos through with maybe 1 issue? The other time I have seen failures is high speed runs through deeper water.

We had our 4th annual Michigan Bronco Club Drummond Island trip this weekend. The trails, scenery and Broncos did not let us down!

It was a fun time, 6 Broncos and about 6 hrs in the park.

Several members are heading to Rocks and Valleys off-road park 10AM Saturday, Aug. 23rd. Bring a flag, $30 for your vehicle and $10 for each passenger, along with some food and drink. If you have not been it's a great park!

The annual MIBC Fall Drummond Island trip is up on us September 12-13.. There are group rides Friday and Saturday and a bonfire Saturday night. Here are the sign up links for the rides-...

@EmCon There is snow ride in Grayling Feb 8th, not sure if you joined the Facebook page. Unfortunately, Gladwin is the closest actual trails and Holly Oaks is the closest off road park to SE MI, so you will need to travel a bit :)

There is a big contingent from SE MI. Facebook is the most consistent place for info. The club has forums too. https://forums.michiganbroncos.club/

They should fit with the crash bars. 35x11.50x17 Toyos on stock black diamond wheels clear.

I did not. That was not the failure point, but it revealed the relatively light capacity of the frame ands paired with the high leverage the RC high winch mount. I love the approach angle and how tight the mount is to the bumper, so I made the effort to reinforce the whole setup. The new winch...

Here is a post some might find interesting, installed a frame reinforcement kit. https://forums.michiganbroncos.club/t/tales-of-a-winch-mount-failure/585

I fianlly got them, wow, you guys are right, it's possible, budget some time or hire a pixie for those who havent't installed the kit :)
