  1. Off-road maintenance

    Honestly... most of it is identical to the typical maintenance you'd normally do. The only real difference is you may want to speed up the maintenance schedule on a few items. Similar, in many ways, to what you'd do for pickups that tow/haul frequently, or for vehicles that operate in extreme...
  2. Advice on rust area on sliders

    Yeah... grind with some sand paper or a wire wheel, clean it up, and hit it with some paint. Rock rails/sliders are designed to basically sacrificial pieces of metal that protect the rest of the vehicle, so I wouldn't put too much thought into it.
  3. Bags to side between the rear windows and the rollbar - any recommendations?

    Ah gotcha. That's actually not a bad idea. Most people seem to just be installing molle panels and attaching things to the panel itself, but bags is not a bad idea. Although... those bags don't really look well thought out. Why would you have the zipper go behind the roll bar?? Doesn't even...
  4. Bags to side between the rear windows and the rollbar - any recommendations?

    I'm not sure exactly which space you are referring to... but assuming my guess is correct: XGCargo Gama?? Also available from Ford Accessories, if you have a bucket of FordPass points and/or a coupon code sitting around.
  5. 22 Bronco - Trailer Brake Controller in 2025

    The official Ford kit is here: https://www.ford.com/product/trailer-hitch-wiring-harness-4-7-pin-by-lumen-p2971214188 The kit is essentially the closest thing you can get to factory-like install, and it integrates with all of the electronics. If the dealer already installed the the official...
  6. What wheel/tire combo can I upgrade to? Concerned about voiding warranty.

    285/70R17 mounts to a 17-inch wheel (hence the "17" at the end of the tire size. Rough equivalent 18" tire: 285/65R18 Rough equivalent 20" tire: 285/55R20 285/55R20 tires are very rare, so you will likely have to size up or size down a little bit if you are sold on 20-inch wheels...
  7. Orange coolant in the reservoir, and level is low... Can I add the new Ford Yellow?

    Mmmm.... keep an eye on that fluid level. If they had *just* swapped out the fluid and didn't bother running a full cycle... then okay, makes sense. But the fluid level shouldn't drop that much in a week's time.
  8. What wheel/tire combo can I upgrade to? Concerned about voiding warranty.

    The higher the number the closer the wheels will be to the center of the vehicle. The more “sucked in” the wheels will be... I guess. The lower the number the farther away from the center of the vehicle they are—the more “pushed out” it they’ll be. A lot of people think lower offsets gives it...
  9. What wheel/tire combo can I upgrade to? Concerned about voiding warranty.

    The warranty only covers the factory build and the factory components. Any aftermarket upgrade has the potential to void warranty... IF it is determined that the aftermarket upgrade caused the failure. The warranty guide has all of the specifics. Good idea to read through it if you are...
  10. 2021 Big Bend 4 door power steering complications

    Probably should do troubleshooting to figure out what's going on, may not be related to the steering rack at all. BUT... assuming it is related to the steering rack, if you were to buy a new rack it comes unprogrammed. You'd need the dealership software (FDRS) to run a PMI on it. If you were to...
  11. Parts help needed - clip at grille filler

    Ya know that video of that race walker at the olympics that celebrates just a smidgen' too early? That's basically me on every single one of these "find that part" posts. I find the part, get that overly smug confident feeling 'cause I'm awesome at this silly game. Then I hurriedly paste the...

    This jerk... I swear. It's like he follows me around. 😜

  14. Questions about adding a subwoofer and speakers using an LOC to the B&O 10-speaker system

    None of the B&O outputs are clean full spectrum unfortunately. Goes back to the B&O DSP itself that @Brian_B was mentioning. That's why a lot of people are using A2B interfaces such as the PAC Audio AP4-FD31 or mObridge GA-D2. They basically act as digital-to-analog converters and allow you...
  15. How much more do we see Ford limiting the 2 door? Is there a chance it goes away entirely ?

    Seriously though... if a manual transmission was ever offered in the US-spec Ranger... I'd buy one instantly. Which reminds me: EVERYONE GO BUY MANUALS!! 🤠
  16. Oil life indicator?

    It's in the center gauge cluster... Main Menu -> Settings -> Vehicle Maintenance -> Oil Life Vehicle has to be in park for that menu to appear. Also available in your FordPass app. No, but Ford has maintenance schedule online: https://www.ford.com/support/maintenance-schedule/
  17. Does Ford offer referrals?

    On some vehicles, yes, but not for the Bronco as far as I'm aware. Many dealers have their own referral program though. I know mine does, but it has to be someone outside of your household, so... didn't work for my wife and I. Guess I coulda kicked her out for 3 months or so but that probably...
  18. PSA— Archetype Racing is back under a new name: Thrustworks

    Eh, he's got wheels on there for the Bronco. Many of the product images for the wheels still carry the "Archetype" branding. When he went bankrupt the first time, many of those products were in the middle of the manufacturing process. Not sure if he had to liquidate those or not, but I wouldn't...
  19. Off and on road 80/20 in my Outer Banks

    Welcome!! It really depends on your definition of "off-roading". There are different "levels" of off-roading, and it ranges from driving on a semi-maintained forest service road to basically climbing up a cliff. OnX Offroad has a really good summary of the different ratings that the off-road...
