  1. Got some new shoes today: Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT Tires in 35x12.5 r17

    I went to 32 psi yesterday. Ride is even more cushy but there still isn't full contact across the tire tread width. The heavier front seem to be a bit wider patch than the rear at 32 psi. I'll run this a few days then try the @telenerd recommended 30 psi. 2 psi doesn't seem like much, but on a...
  2. Just lost acceleration and the. Shut down

    My situation was a bit of a cluster, but after I got the truck home (it's body on frame with at least one solid axle, so it's a truck IMHO), I used the Ford app to get it towed to a dealer for repairs. I have to say that I was impressed with how well that worked. With all their issues, Ford...
  3. Got some new shoes today: Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT Tires in 35x12.5 r17

    I don't have personal snow experience yet, but some of the Bronco group members here have the MT BB ATs and have been pretty happy with them in snow....at least our typically wet/heavy PNW snow. They MTs generally seemed more snow capable than my GY Territory MTs @ about 23K miles. The Mickeys...
  4. Just lost acceleration and the. Shut down

    Had a similar experience with my low pressure fuel pump failure. It did not shut off the ignition, but the engine was fuel starved and quit running pretty quickly when cruising along at about 45 mph. Wouldn't restart, though it did try and sputter a few times. Edit: I'm not 100% sure since this...
  5. Badlands.... Do I need the Sasquatch Upgrade (Newbie)

    So true, BUT the issue with Bronco buying is that it gets difficult to understand exactly what you get vs. lose going from trim to trim and option to option. Then if one is not particularly savvy in off road truck builds, it may be difficult to understand the consequences of a feature...
  6. Badlands.... Do I need the Sasquatch Upgrade (Newbie)

    I hope I'm not spoiling a big reveal, but OP did actually pull the trigger on a Shadow Black four door Badlands.....and he did NOT check the Sasquatch option box. Some may question that choice, others may praise it.....but either way, he got a dang fun and freaking cool truck. I will be forever...
  7. Got some new shoes today: Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT Tires in 35x12.5 r17

    A couple of folks in the PNW Bronco group who are more active and aggressive than me have these Mickeys (@Scott M and @ezapar 2) on their Broncos and they don't seem to have any complaints on how they handle on the trails. I actually liked the GYs on most PNW stuff other than mud and compact...
  8. Got some new shoes today: Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT Tires in 35x12.5 r17

    Thanks. I love this freaking truck more than an inanimate object should be loved! 😍 I started at 35 psi, but I think that is high. I can tell by the dust pattern from my gravel road that I don't have much contact at the outer edges of the tread. I'll try 32 psi next, but your 30 psi may end up...

    The PNW Bronco Group

    I just got the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss ATs and I swear I can feel the weight of these very heavy tires. They also said my stock wheels made balancing them difficult......which leads me into thinking new, lighter wheels could be in my future. I should call my Bronco "B.O.A.T"....Bust Out...
  10. Yes, That’s a Grandma Removing a 2-Door Bronco Hard Top (using EZ4x4 lift)

    Mine, as supplied, was only set up for the rear crank. They graciously sent me the bracket and fasteners to attach the strap to the side. I was very pleased with their support!
  11. Recall 26S32: 2021-2022 Model Year Broncos MIC Hard Top Roof Panel Delamination [May 15, 2026]

    When they put a "safety" label on it, it gets a little hairy. Clearly a lot of these tops have problems. If there is a legit safety hazard and one comes apart causing injury that was a top either outside the recall (but exhibiting similar issues) or one that was under recall but denied...
  12. First 2 Door Bronco to Tackle Baja 1000 Wins, Then Loses Class 3 #301

    Will an OEM wheel still fit your truck? I wonder if some one in your hood might let you swap on a set for a little test run. Like I said, they are heavy, which I hope equates to being rugged. They might have a fuel penalty and screw with your suspension a bit, but man these things are certainly...
  13. Recall 26S32: 2021-2022 Model Year Broncos MIC Hard Top Roof Panel Delamination [May 15, 2026]

    Like @PowerBronco stated, it would be hard to believe this recall does not get expanded. I'm kind of amazed they did it at all because it's going to open a potential flood gate of claims and maybe lawsuits. They better have a damn good solution! Hang in there and see what the details of this...
  14. First 2 Door Bronco to Tackle Baja 1000 Wins, Then Loses Class 3 #301

    @pewpew_cachoo, from what I understand your are a avid BFG fan...but have you considered the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss? The are a hella heavy tire, but I'd imagine that would make for a much more stout tire. Saving one flat would probably more than offset the tire weight penalty. The Mickeys are...
  15. Recall 26S32: 2021-2022 Model Year Broncos MIC Hard Top Roof Panel Delamination [May 15, 2026]

    No doubt. With this recall, I'd think it would be very hard to win a class action suit raised by folks with later model years and basically having similar failures. I wonder if they would pay out on replacement tops? From what I understand some have gotten compensation for replacement shocks...
  16. I just broke a tie rod on the last trail I went on

    But the rack side threads are the same? I just bought some standard Moog spares (2 inners, 1 each of the outers) for my 2.0 rack. About $122 including tax and shipping from Rock Auto. Is it a bad idea to put a 3.0 tie rod on a 2.0 rack? Will it just drive the failure deeper to a more difficult...
  17. My Bronco Raptor Fire Total Loss Experience

    First, thank goodness this all worked out safely and well. Second, very impressive. You were able to explain the Ford replacement situation without getting hung up on the VERY minor detail that their product nearly incinerated you, your wife, and your dog. We love our Broncos A LOT, but I'm not...
  18. Badlands.... Do I need the Sasquatch Upgrade (Newbie)

    Did you see the loaded '25 Azure Grey BL at Autonation? Pretty nice. Painted top, SBD, Lux, SAS...seems to have everything but the Fox shocks. The Azure Grey is very, very close to the coolest color ever, Area 51. They say they are going to have a Memorial Day sale.
  19. Badlands.... Do I need the Sasquatch Upgrade (Newbie)

    Coming in well read and researched tends to disarm them, too, particularly schister slime ball salesman types that BS they're way into sales. When you can explain the option packages better than they can, they think, "Oh no, he knows what he's talking about. If I try my trusty BS routine, he may...
  20. Recall 26S32: 2021-2022 Model Year Broncos MIC Hard Top Roof Panel Delamination [May 15, 2026]

    Wow, what timing for open recall #7! I have a '22 with a 12/21 build date. I had been very proud of my crack free top, then just last week for the first time I spotted the dreaded cracks starting below the rear window. Warranty is long gone, so maybe I can get something out of this one. Mine...
