  1. New Bumpers from TURN Offroad

    Man, that's a wicked annoying noise. I cannot really tell from the video audio exactly where the noise is coming from. It would be worth, loosening the swing arm bolt, and re-tighten to spec maybe? Repack grease too at same time, is visual inspection warrants. Think working from back at that...
  2. New Bumpers from TURN Offroad

    Regarding the tailgate misalignment upwards, this is the same issue I immediately noticed too. I believe the removal of the weight of the spare tire from the factory hinge mounting points (aluminum) caused this. Bust out your star sockets and you'll find plenty of adjustment upwards available on...
  3. New Bumpers from TURN Offroad

    No problem! I would still reach out to them to see if they'll send you some though. Reference this thread, even using our comparison photos. Their new bump stops even came with new retainers I think too as the factory ones are somewhat chincy. They get pretty deformed during removal for the...
  4. New Bumpers from TURN Offroad

    They don't seem to sell them individually, but Barnes sells some (way big, but trimmable). My kits new bumpstops were slightly trimmed (one or two ribs)...
  5. New Bumpers from TURN Offroad

    Agreed, just measured mine and the square tubing on Mine is 2" x 3". 2" front/back or "thick" by 3" tall, not the dimension we're concerned with. Your bumpers, if stock are between 2.5-3X smaller in thickness than mine. That alone would fix your clearance issue.
  6. New Bumpers from TURN Offroad

    Mine seems fine with plenty. Is your install an early launch? Cut too much of the Turn supplied bumpers? I think I recall seeing some posts of early purchases having issues with bumpers (too short) and maybe Turn remedied it it later kits? They may send you some new ones.
  7. How heavy is your Bronco?

    Finished couple days ago with rear bumper mod. Final large/heavy vehicle mod. Full tank of gas, me in it. Rear loaded with 85% of my offroading gear. 6K even lol
  8. New Bumpers from TURN Offroad

    Thanks! I think I made the decision she is 98+% build complete. I'll check out that Amazon link. Pic from Moab last September for attention.
  9. New Bumpers from TURN Offroad

    Installed a couple days ago by a local shop, chased non working license plate light, was driverside factory connector. Same for the sensors factory connector on passenger side. Tailgate striker plate needed substantial adjustment. Heim joints fine tuning. Solid, no rattles Tailgate closes...

  11. Offroaders: What do you do for paint protection?

    Thanks! It is their Clear stealth/Satin finish (Area51 under). I think it is 7 or 8mm thick. Decent self healing up to a point(I am putting it through what they never really intended). I don't believe there are any PPF manufacturers directly marketing for what adventurous offroaders...
  12. Offroaders: What do you do for paint protection?

    Just saw your post after my initial reply to OP. I just took these photos in the garage. My original photos were of my last 2 wheeling trips. The black sand was just prior to some serious manzaneta bush bashing. The marks you see on my bumper are equal to both driver and passenger sides. We...
  13. Offroaders: What do you do for paint protection?

    As others have stated, I have full body PPF and ceramic coating. It is surviving amazingly and beats my expectations from what I have put it through in the last year (manzanetas!). I have the same use vs still looking nice desire. If you can stomach the XPEL pricing, you likely won't be...
