What did you do TO / WITH your Bronco today? 👨🏻‍🔧🧰🚿🛠

[Beach_Bum]

recipe please!!
I need for my Yellowstone trip next week

Choose a thick center cut bacon. Need it thick as you will oven bake the bacon at a lower temperature to render the fat. Cut the package in half while the bacon is in the wrapper as it will be easier. Then separate each piece into a Zip Lock bag. Add bourbon - enough to coat the pieces to marinade overnight.

Use a roasting pan so the fat drippings drain away while the bacon cooks. Lay out the pieces (might need to make multiple batches) and bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. If your bacon is thinner, than only bake for 15 minutes. Best to check at 15 and continue to cook longer if necessary.

While the bacon is cooking, add brown sugar, minced pickled jalapeno (well drained/strained), and splash of bourbon - enough to make the mixture into a syrup.

Dredge the cooked bacon in the syrup and lay them out on the pan. When all the pieces have been coated, then take a fork and spread out the jalapeno pieces that were left behind after the dredging on top of the bacon.

By this time, any excess syrup would have dripped through the pan. Move each piece onto a plate in a single layer (probably will take multiple plates). And place the plates into the refrigerator to harden the syrup.

That's friggin cool! Your Bronc will be staring in the next Final Destination film. I see flying chainsaws on the freeway scene for you...

Lol I can't tell if you are being serious but the chain saw is secured very well between the bar mount and the stabilizing strap.

Got my new TUFSKIN emblems installed... They turned out perfect... Not overly gaudy, but just enough information.

Nice!!! I still prefer the original.

I installed the Ford Performance ARB twin compressor kit and some hood struts today. I can't say that I am a fan of the instructions for the compressor. I think the hardest part was getting the harness plugged back into the DLCM. That was super frustrating.

My Expedition One rock sliders are arriving tomorrow. There arriving just in time for an upcoming trip to Uwharrie on the 16th.

You have to be weighted down!? Is the rear end squatted hard with that load?

My daughter and I just made the pattern for our Bestop Skyrider liner. Itll be held on with industrial velcro, a layer of marine grade black canvas, a layer of rubber then another layer of canvass. We're trying to reduce the sound before we take a family vacation down to Mississippi and Florida. We definitely want the soft top on the Bronco so we can just flip it back but don't want to lose hearing on the drive down and back.

Nobody makes anything like what we're doing for the Skyrider so if it works we might start selling them here if you guys are interested. Hotheads Headliners makes one for the Sunrider (front of the truck only) but not the skyrider (front and back seating areas). I'd have bought one if it was made but theres nothing on the market that I could find.

We'll take some pics when done.

I just finished installing Expedition One rock sliders. It's not an easy job by yourself, lol. The tread plates were an absolute PITA!

I'm not 100% sure how I feel about them at the moment. I guess as long as they do their job I'll be happy.

Wrapped up my "Trail Camera" setup inspired by @5GENIDN
Uses the Naviks module to handle 3 video inputs, front, under front, under back

Took an old piece of scrap metal, cut it up and drilled some holes for the mount and cameras.

Installing the naviks module took some time due to having to take apart the dash.

After all that, this is the result, a little button. (what that button does is kinda cool though). I don't have the courage yet to drill a hole for the button.

Last part was the cameras mounted to my existing transfer case skid plate.

(I did make the front facing camera a little lower, I have yet to really test if this made a difference)

And finally a little demo...


On to the next project...
