  1. How far did you travel to pick up your Bronco ?

    About 563 miles from Stephen's Auto in Danville, WV. I deliberately took the longer, mountainous route back home to South Carolina and made an overnight trip out of it. Funny thing, I was so excited to catch my 6 am flight to Charleston, WV that I forgot my backpack with change of clothes...
  2. MIC hard top painted white using Raptor Spray Liner: DIY how-to and photos

    @KNXBronco So how is this holding up after 3+ years? I've always planned to eventually do this myself, but in no particular hurry.
  3. 2.3 Oil Filter Removal - best practice for not spilling oil?

    Appreciate the responses. I didn't really understand that I was supposed to let the oil drip down that channel and then completely removed the filter afterwards.
  4. 2.3 Oil Filter Removal - best practice for not spilling oil?

    I change my own oil and have done so on my 2.3 equipped Bronco four of five times so far. The first few times went off without a hitch, but last weekend I managed to spill a lot of oil when removing my oil filter even though I'm pretty certain I managed to turn it upright after unscrewing as...
  5. Paint Issues

    How the heck does stuff like this get past Quality Control? This is why humans won't be doing this job at all in the very near future. It's already pretty straightforward to use cameras and AI to detect anomalies like this. I'm surprised Ford isn't already doing that.
  6. 2 door soft top “non-slant back” options?

    Was the big announcement hinted at by @Bestop_Team just that powered e-top? Or is there still some forthcoming big news about two-door soft tops?
  7. $0.35 Transfer Case Crush Washer Match

    Instead of buying an individual washer (or a small pack at the auto parts store), just spend 10 or 20 dollars and buy a big plastic container of assorted sizes. Get one in aluminum and one in copper if you like. They are really affordable and you will only have to do this one time in your...
  8. Battery Dead Help

    And for anyone reading this thread, those inexpensive rechargeable jump starters you get from Amazon are pretty amazing for this exact scenario (nose in parked in a garage). I keep one in three different vehicles. All different brands and all work. As little as 30 bucks. Hope to never use...
  9. JUNK Hard Tops......and a question

    Check the alignment of the window compared to the driver's side. Mine was MUCH louder at the passenger B pillar when I first bought it, and very quiet on the driver's side. After adjusting the passenger window I made it 80% better. It's not perfectly quiet and could probably benefit from a...
  10. JUNK Hard Tops......and a question

    Concur. If anything, it's the installation of the windows at the factory that starts these cracks. Mine had minor cracks around the windows literally the day I brought it home from the dealer. I made sure to photograph this at the time to see if got any worse before the warranty expired. All...
  11. 2 door soft top “non-slant back” options?

    I hope this is finally what we've all been waiting for. I can't express how frustrating it is to not have a traditional fold back option. Especially since (in my humble opinion), Bestop has already done the hard part of designing the soft top with their existing Trektop. I'm no design...
  12. Fun AI Images of Your Bronco - Try This and Post Yours!

    Did you ask it do a solid axle swap too, or is Gemini just that much smarter than Ford Motor Company?
  13. Cargo Area Light Advice

    This a really good magnetic light from Harbor Freight that I've used. They have a 2100 lumen version for twice the price if you really need it.
  14. Ford Performance Hood Struts installed

    I have the similar Redline Quicklift struts that I paid about the same for. This is one of the easiest and most beneficial modifications you can make to your Bronco. The only thing I'd rate higher is an updated oil drain plug, like the Valvomax or similar (if you change your own oil).
  15. Window Sticker vs actual build for Heritage Limited

    I think this is the origin of the problem right here. The Special Order let them pick an item that wasn't even compatible with the square-flared Heritage Limited. Where the line item says "base style" I think that's referring to the compatibility of the steel flares with the base style (round)...
  16. 4.88 or 5.13 with 35s and 7MT

    I concur with this logic and vote for 5.38s. A straight line calculation like 37X4.46/33=5.00 gets you to the right RPMs, but I always say add 10% or so to account for the general sluggishness that comes with increased weight of the vehicle. Not only are 37s going to be heavier, if you are...
  17. Talk Me Off The Ledge.... 😲

    I wouldn't limit your search to just your area. Probably any part of the country within a day's drive could be worth you while if you found one you liked at significant discount.
  18. Hardtop Rear Liftgate Glass difficult to open

    Not normal. Should be able to do it with the force of one finger.
  19. Solution Finish - success on faded fenders and rear bumper

    My Bronco has been parked outdoors in a sunny environment in the 2 years 7 months that I've owned it. Just in the last month I noticed the dreaded "zebra striping" on all four plastic fender flares. I can report that Solution Finish got them looking nearly new with little effort. I removed...
  20. Wasp infestation - is spray safe for MIC parts?

    I wouldn't go near Yellowjackets without PPE/heavy clothing because they will swarm and sting faster than just about anything. But since you have an actual problem to deal with... 1. I think vacuuming is good to catch/kill as many as you can. 2. I've had decent luck with those disposable...
