  1. Convince me to buy a Bronco

    If you can’t figure out what you need on your own, everyone here telling you to go one way or the other is setting you up for failure. If you need a bed to haul stuff, get a truck. If you’re not willing to get a trailer for hauling stuff IF you were to get a Bronco, get a truck. If you’ve had...
  2. 2024 or 2025 Outer Banks w/Sasquatch vs Wildtrak

    Leave the Badlands for those who actually go off-road, the Squatched OB sounds perfect for the OP.
  3. Spare CV Axle Questions

    Replacing an axle seems like a lot of work as described above!! I replaced the left front axle on my son’s GX470 a couple of weeks ago, literally took me 15 minutes on a lift. Pulled the wheel off, spun the 35mm outer nut off, separated the lower ball joint from the knuckle (2 bolts, very nice...
  4. Bronco vs Wranger vs Land Cruiser

    My son has a 2004 GX470, is a fantastic vehicle. I had a 2006 Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon, was incredibly capable off-road and uncomfortable on-road, but the read seat could be removed in seconds (great feature..). I love my Bronco, is fantastic all-around. The only 2 things I’d change are 1)...
  5. Roof Rack Keeps Failing

    May need to step up to a better/stronger rack, TrailRax perhaps.
  6. RCI Roof Rack Keeps Failing

    The design of the RCI is pretty simple but isn’t strong. Get a rack that has the sides bent over the top of the crossbars, like a TrailRax rack. Yup, more expensive but much better design.
  7. When Cyber Orange pops.

    CO was the other color I was looking for in ā€˜23 but I found my 2-door manual BL in A51. I could compromise on color but NOT the rest of the configuration. It was hard enough to find a manual on the lots in ā€˜23!!!
  8. What should I have for recovery gear?

    I’ve only been off-road a couple of times, once with a local group in an off-road park and once for the Off-Roadeo in Moab (I STRONGLY recommend doing the Off-Roadeo, you’ll learn a ton!!!). When I did the local thing (western NY) it was just some trails a guy had cut through 80 acres on...
  9. Light-hearted 2dr/4dr question to current and former Jeep Wrangler owners

    I love my 2-dr manual Badlands, wouldn’t trade it for any other Bronco. I also have the last of the real Wrangler Unlimiteds (ā€˜06 LJ 2-dr). If I needed a 4-dr SUV, I’d get another Suburban (have had 3, 2 were 3/4-ton, fantastic tow-vehicles, would still have one if they had come with the...
  10. 2DR -> 4DR -> 2DR

    I like your BL!!! There was a used ā€˜22 just like it when I bought my ā€˜23 BL. If it had been a manual I may have considered it over my A51 2-dr. The optional BL wheels look great, makes choosing between Sasquatch wheels and the BL optionals a very tough choice!! I guess it comes down to...
  11. These roof panels are garbage and Ford should be ashamed of themselves.

    My 2-dr BL is definitely louder inside than my ā€˜06 Wrangler Unlimited with the hard top but the Jeep top doesn’t have all of the seams & seals for front removable panels like the Bronco does. When I did the Off Roadeo in Moab I drove a 2-door that had the sound insulation on the inside of the...
  12. Less that 5,000 miles and my hardtop is already failing

    My e36 M3 has been fantastic for the 12 years that I’ve owned it, has been excellent!
  13. Ford CEO says some fun toys coming -- wants Ford to be "the Porsche of off-road."

    ME TOO!!! I was in Canada in November for the Rally of the Tall Pines and watched a Fiesta clean house!!! Now, granted, it’s a European model that was built by M-Sport, but it was still really cool to watch!!
  14. Looking for pics of Hella's installed on your Bronco

    I have a pair of Cibie Apollo Tourini driving lights I’m going to make brackets for eventually. I want to mount them on my mod bumper similar to how they were mounted on my LJR. The things I’m not sure about yet are 1) finding an OEM switch (driving light symbol on the switch is different from...

  16. Rough Country High Winch Mount With LOD Frame Tie Question

    I installed the RC high mount with the Metal Tech 4x4 frame reinforcements, nice setup. I did need to grind some material off of the plate that gets mounted immediately behind the bumper. Otherwise was a very easy installation.
  17. Wrangler Owner Just Bought an Everglades

    I’ve got both for now, will be selling the Jeep (06 LJR, good driver but a NY vehicle so frame looks worse than it is…). I still feel like the BL is an updated version of the LJR (BL rides better but is noisier, LJR rear seat comes out in seconds and seems to have more room from the back of the...
  18. Impressed by the 2 Door Basesquach for a short family trip.

    I haven’t travelled with mine a lot yet but I REALLY enjoy taking it! This weekend my son and I took Grubby up to Bancroft, Ontario, Canada for the Rally of the Tall Pines, was a fantastic rally!!! The only negative to the weekend has been that we joined the CWC (Cracked Windshield Club) on...
  19. Metal Tech Frame Reinforcement Help

    Yes, got the screws on top out, no problem.
