My wife and I are taking a trip to Silver Lake Dunes next week. We're not planning on doing anything crazy, but do plan on driving around the dunes. My '24 Black Diamond is pretty much stock (at least in terms of tires/suspension). What psi would you recommend running? I've seen suggestions...
My wife and I are planning a trip to Silver Lake Dunes next week, and I have a question for anyone who's been there (or any place similar). We don't plan on doing any crazy driving, just cruising around the dunes. I'm wondering whether Sand mode or Baja mode would be best suited for the type of...
Has anyone installed the Westin hidden winch mount on their Bronco? I'm running the Capable bumper with IAG's FMS bull bar and light bar, so I need something that will work with that setup.
The main thing giving me pause is that the install requires cutting the frame extensions off the frame...
I installed the Perimeter Plus alarm on my Bronco, and I get the notifications in the app when the alarm goes off. When this happens, is it possible to dismiss the alarm through the app (from locking/unlocking the vehicle)? There are times when I'm confident the vehicle isn't actually in danger...
I’m looking to get some tie downs to use as anchor points for strapping things to my roof rack. I saw RCI makes some specific for their racks (linked below). They’re substantially more expensive than the generic ring t-slot anchors I’ve seen on Amazon. Are they likely worth the cost premium, or...
I'm wondering how much extra weight can be added to the tailgate before some sort of reinforcement is needed. I currently have a IAG tailgate table installed, and I was considering getting some sort of solution that would allow me to mount two 2-gallon RotopaX water containers to my spare tire...
I ordered a Half Rack w/ Pak Rax for my 2 door a little over a month ago from Bronco Nation (wanted to take advantage of the 10% discount). I need it for a trip I'm taking at the end of the month. It took longer to ship than advertised, which made me nervous, but it arrived yesterday. The major...
I have the SPV parking light harness that allows the amber backlight on my Rigid light pods to turn on with my parking/marker lights. One thing I noticed is that the backlight isn’t on with the DRLs. If the headlights are on, the backlights turn on, and they also come on when I unlock the...
I’m looking for something that will allow me to attach tools and other items to MOLLE panels (like Quick Fist clamps), but will be lower profile when empty. I’ve got side MOLLE panels in my cargo area. Occasionally I need the full width of the space, and end up having to remove not only the...
I currently have four light pods on my bumper, and four light pods on my a pillars (two on each side). While I feel like I've done a decent job routing the wires over to the up fitter switch wires in the engine bay, but I currently have what looks like a rat's nest of wires in that area. This is...
I currently have two pairs of Rigid 360 4-inch driving lights on my front bumper. They’re not bad, but I don’t love them. I’ve been looking at the KC Slimlites in both the 6 inch and 8 inch as potential replacements. From the mockups I tried making, I’m worried the 8 inch would look a little too...
If I were to leave the tailgate open for an extended period of time while camping, will that drain the battery quicker than normal? If so, is there anything I can do to prevent this (such as locking the doors)? I know the lights turn off automatically after a while, but I wasn't sure if there...
I’m considering getting an EcoFlow DELTA series power station along with their 800W alternator charger, and I had a couple of questions I was hoping someone here could help with.
Right now, I have a Victron IP67 battery charger installed on my Bronco. When it’s parked in the garage at night, I...
Question for those of you who have the Pak Rax system from TrailRax, and who use their Bronco as their daily driver. Do you keep anything mounted on them full time, or do you keep them empty when not off-roading/overlanding/camping/etc…?
I'm planning a beach camping trip for the end of March / beginning of April. As part of this, I'll need to deflate my tires to 15-20 psi. This means I'll need to re-inflate them once we leave the beach. I currently have a Viair 88p digital compressor that I keep in the vehicle in case I need to...
This may be a student question, but what's the largest awning (in width) that can be used with a 2-door half rack (either on the rear or side of the vehicle)? Is the width of the awning limited strictly to the dimensions of the rack? If that's the case, I'm guessing a 48" awning would be the...
I wanted to share a few thoughts on some @Mountains2Metal products I recently picked up. A couple of these are pretty new, and I couldn’t find much info on them beforehand, so I figured this might help anyone else considering them.
Drop Down Attic (2-door)
I bought this right after it was...
This spring, I’ll be taking a road trip from Ohio to North Carolina with my wife and our niece. We’ll be staying with family, but we’re also planning a “side quest” to the coast to camp on the beach for one night. I know we’ll need something to expand the cargo capacity of my 2-door.
Right now...
I noticed that Ford Performance Parts is now selling the Raptor headlights as an upgrade kit for all Broncos (link below). From looking at the photos, it appears as though they come with the headlights themselves and some sort of module. For those of you who have installed pull-off Raptor...
