Thanks for broaching the subject, I didn't want to be accused of being a hater and my Bronco has an auto so no room to talk but I will anyway :) . Previous 4x4s with manuals usually had granny gear but not always, seldom if ever smelled burning clutch. Use that crawler gear and low range. The...

Definitely don't buy at dealership at time of purchase. Go home and stew on it, deals are to be had out there

I have always operated under the @Tricky Mike philosophy and done fine. They have run the numbers and know they will come out ahead. But with this Bronco and now with my '23 Explorer I went through the exact thought process as you and bought the Ford Premium Care through Granger. One ECM. BCM...

I Googled to see if the Mabetts were still available and came across these, might like them better than mine...

I have the @Mabett ones that are cast aluminum and they are great, but I don't think they are available anymore.

I just used these, mounted with 5/16 carriage bolts, on the light bracket that came on the safari bar. My bar is pretty low, looks like you have a taller one. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BDDN6YV9?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

Ha Ha, maybe they just ride out there drinking cocktails while the wives take turns driving.

I'd say you got a great deal on a great Bronco. Enjoy! 2D BD, the best, not available anymore

I just removed the mounts and left the end links attached, worked well

I'm curious if the manual transmission lubes the output when in neutral?

Yeah, I know that spot, there's good cell service there and that's my twin brother with his '66-2021 cross breed Bronc.

I started to respond about the limitations of a dolly OR disco then reread disco AND dolly, yep that'd work subject to the limitations you stated. Then relative to warrantee: I have a Ford ESP which obviously won't help, but a third party like you suggest might work. Subject to the argument...

Certainly they have something better to do than stare at the back of that RV from 6' away.

Love the Barnes, price is right and install is easy. For the type of hit I might take they work great. A few days after my install driving a muddy road with deep ruts a rock on the inside of the rut caught the mount/skid. Without the skid I'm sure one ear of the shock mount would have bent...

The listing of covered components in the ESP has no body parts listed and the excluded parts reads as follows. So whether it's called a fixed body panel or a convertible top it looks like it's not covered. But, be the guinea pig and find out for sure for the rest of us.

Little j jeeped. I'm old and have decided to stand my ground, it's a jeep trail, a Handyman jack and stay off my lawn! ;) I used that pic cause it was my last trip onto the domain (old guy for public land) didn't figure someone like @BigMeatsBronco would figure out it might not be high sale...

True, True. But I bet my deer hunting spot near Aspen where I have to thread my way through private parcels will be threatened. As I said earlier, there is a procedure in place to transfer developable parcels. A big one was just done near my town, it's not easy but doable if it makes sense...

Sure, but most of the lands I use to hunt, fish, off road, camp, hike and explore are not parks, monuments, refuges, historic sites, wild rivers or other protected areas and might be offered for sale. Just random BLM land where I jeeped all day and never saw a soul. Might be sold.

I replaced the 50 year old 48 inch Handyman jack with a shiny new and straight 42 inch that fits between the headlights better. I'll get skerd before I get higher than that.

Funny, that's what we did and I was good with it, done it before. He got nervous and called, they told him they do measure and will kick him out so...In fact when I measure ours is 2 inches long to the spare tire, I figure I'll remove it if I have to. My RV says 26 on the model # , which is...
