  1. ARB Summit - Full Installation Video

    PITA is an understatement. LMAO. Installed my about 1-1/2 years ago, with the assistance of my Ford Master Tech son. My biggest bits of advice. Measure the 110mm bolts before you start. Mine were too short, and we had to run around town to get long enough bolts. A Harbor Frieght Ikon flex head...
  2. Nitto Trail Grapplers 35x12.5x17 on stock Wildtrak wheels - Anyone got this and any rubbing issues?

    No issues with switching from 315"s to 35's. Slight speed delta, but minor. You see a minor milage decrease. All these are typical with the tire change. In Florida I appreciate the added flotation in sugar sand with the wider tire.
  3. Nitto Trail Grapplers 35x12.5x17 on stock Wildtrak wheels - Anyone got this and any rubbing issues?

    Running the Nittos on my SAS Badlands with zero issues. Installed with less than 2k miles on my Bronco and at 26k now.
  4. Show off your HAM or GMRS setup

    Here is my setup. FTM-500DR and using a Bullet Point mount.
  5. 2.7 engine noise while engine is off

    Here's a video of mine. I just happened to have my hand on the refrigerant line at the front of the engine bay while videoing so I felt it in the line. Started the engine, ran the AC for a few minutes then turned it off and the noise was gone. I've never seen this with 134 or 12 systems, so it...
  6. 2.7 engine noise while engine is off

    I had the same thing on a hot day here in Florida while washing my Bronco. Traced it to the AC system. Seems to be the pressure bleeding through the expansion valve as the ambient heat expands the refrigerant.
  7. What width 35s?

    Just a touch
  8. What width 35s?

    I'm running 35x12.5-17 Trail Grapplers on SAS wheels with zero issues.
  9. Best Tires for a Badland Sasquatch?

    A bit, but most anything you add will impact MPG. But honestly, if you're hunting MPG you've bought the wrong vehicle. LOL
  10. Best Tires for a Badland Sasquatch?

    On my SAS Badlands I switched to 35x12.5 Nitto Trail Grapplers for the stone throwing issue. I've got a gravel driveway. At 20k now and more than happy.
  11. Antenna Location

    This is how I've got my 2M/440 antenna mounted on the taolgate.
  12. Antenna Location

    Will it cause issues to the radiated pattern yes, but substantially? Maybe to the rear. As to 50 watts VHF that close, not likely to be a big issue, but as someone else suggested check the ARRL web site. 73 Russ W2FSL
  13. Bronco Awning Showdown! ⛺️ What Are Running And Why Do You Think Yours Is The Best?

    I've got the Roam. The biggest deciding factor for me was that it's one of the few awnings that extends out 8'. We use it for camping, and tailgating. If we didn't use for tailgating, I would have gotten a 270.
  14. Anyone try the K&N replaceable engine air filters?

    I'm running the K&N oilled filter in mine. I've been running K&N oilled filters in all my vehicles for 40 years, and never had an issue.
  15. MPG - Why so bad?

    Not sure about Colorado, but when I lived in the Northeast they would switch to "winter gas mix" in the late fall. This had a higher ethanol percentage, and would kill my mileage.
  16. Switched to full synthetic and I swear my 2.7 is louder, noisier.

    Switched mine to Mobil 1 on my second oil change, and I've noticed no noise difference. As long as the viscosity is the same there should be no difference.
  17. TrailRax Setup - Post Yours

    I've only added a Roam Adventure awning so far. Used so far, for tailgating at Jags games. Will be adding a set of rear facing lights, and saltwater fishing rods mounts soon.
  18. Newbie ordering question

    I ordered mine in March 2023 using my son's D plan. I put $100 down, and was told the same as you, if I didn't take delivery I'd get my $100 back and they would put it into thier inventory. When it arrived un September 23 I did buy it, but at that time the dealership would have made more money...
  19. Ham Radio antenna location, need suggestions

    I used a Swarf Works mount. It's pricey, but worth the money. My antenna is a Comet 2M/440 antenna. Russ W2FSL
