With any luck, the copious amounts of flex seal and replaced fasteners last year should hold me. Atleast it was successful during my 4 week Alaska stint where it rained all but two days. Thanks Karl! The blanket was a huge Win! I scooped some Amazon Specials for those evenings by the fire out...

The Camper was due for another round of upgrades before the 2025 Summer Season. Lets Dive in. First up was new tail lights(Red lens)... the old ones (clear lens) died during AK 2024. Second was a new DC-DC charger. Ditching the CTEK D250S ( I know the wiring is incorrect for how I had it...

I pulled my plugs at 100,000kms/62,000mi and they all wore evenly (looking like your 2-4). That being said, I’ve had a catch can on it since day one and run a can of Seafoam through it every 10-15,000kms/7,500mi. Do you have any additive habits that might be contributing?

yup, you’ve got it. These rigs have character, and minimal sound deadening. They arent luxury toys that hardly purr, they are stallions that whinny and snort.

Nope, although, I’m sure you could fab something up. The material isn’t reinforced for a central strut, so, caution with that If your top is on, then this can’t unfurl. If you’re using this as a cover, then it cant double as a sun shade…

If you’re referring to the high pressure fuel pump, ticking at a constant 500bpm…completely normal for the 2.3L and always present

After I arrived back home, an oil change was first in order. But since then, the only fun mod has been a v2 of my light bar mount. It shifts the bar a bit forwards and down, some changes to its general profile too... During the AK trek, I noticed that when the "Smart" alternator drops to a...

Well, it's been another minute. Swiftly upon return from Alaska last fall, the work came calling. Weddings, Hockey, and Real Estate shoots consumed the spare time outside of the day job. There hasn't been much Bronco fun to be had, but there has been some mileage and maintenance... So, I guess...

Floods! or a Combo if you really want a pinch of throw, but floods all the way… never a spot for the rear

What Ducati said. Reverse Gears are often straight cut opposed to Helical Cut. Straight cut gears are often stronger, louder, and harder to engage. If you watch any type of racing (Drifting, Endurance, Rally, Baja), you’ll often hear a very whiny drivetrain. This is due to a straight cut...

It’s not your battery, and it sounds like something upstream, perhaps a module. The camera behind the windshield is responsible for PCB as well as auto high beams. Have you had your glass replaced recently?

Just curious, have you had the MT Synchro TSB completed? The dealer pinched my fuel line upon reassembly

Some thoughts I’ve had to alleviate the build up around the bar is to lower the skid plate via spacers. Of course, at the expense of clearance. An easy and short term solution. Or taking some thin gauge sheet metal/tin. Cutting a shield to cover the valve block and it’s external fittings then...

While @NorthShoreBronco uses his a bunch, yes, they can certainly fail while “not in use” The common theme is a buildup of snow/mud on the skid plate, which is tucked up tight. The snow/mud tends to encapsulate the bar and break off a pressure sensor or solenoid, tear out wiring, or completely...

After having two sway bars go pop during extended winter drives…. Probably due to snow and ice buildup too… Im wondering if there is a way to configure the system to a “Non-Disco Bronco” and install a traditional bar

100% agree My commute is 37 minutes at highway speeds, with weekend excursions being around 2.5 hours per day. Of course, there are always a few little trips to and from… but even in the deep of winter, -30 temps, I’m driving long enough to get up to full operating temp. I don’t know how you...

FWIW, I took my rig in for a checkup before end of extended warranty (120,000kms) and my battery failed at 126 CCA. Somehow we’re still starting strong at -20°C without plugging in… I don’t know how much weight I would put into the CCA tests on these things… To top it off, this is the second...

A small update, I am on the second sway bar in my BL and the newer bar has decided to fail as well. First one blew a seal, this one has lost control of valving - throwing a C1B03 code. I am 2,000kms away from being out of extended warranty and at first glance at the dealer, Ford is not going to...

Search the forum. You’ll find an owner PDI checklist with particular nuts and bolts to snug up. This sounds very much like a bad connection within the fuse box/battery area. Or a computer as the tech stated!

Last night on the road. 32 Day long trip. 21 days of rain, Who would’ve thought that Wet Season in Alaska would be wet. Bronco performed flawlessly over the 12,062km total. A few close calls with the Whitetails were pretty expected, but a Young Caribou Buck during a narrow mountain pass kept me...
