  1. OEM Goodyear Wrangler Territory Wear Rate

    13,000 driving miles along with 8,000 being towed behind my motorhome, rotate every 5,000 to 6,000 miles and mine still look really good. Lots of wheeling and a couple 1,000 miles on dirt roads. As others have said they donā€™t pick up nearly as many rocks after 6 to 7,000 miles.
  2. Hardtop Roof Rack: if you were buying today?

    I ordered my 2-door with the OEM rack and replaced that with a TrailRax shortly after taking delivery. I needed the Rotopax mounting capability due to the tiny fuel tank; not enough capacity for back country trips around Nevada.
  3. Successfully flat towing your Broncos?

    I towed a little over 2,000 miles before the EBB fix and more than 5,000 miles since the fix to disable the EBB. During these trips the Bronco was placed in and taken out of flat tow mode over 40 times. My software was successfully updated via Fordā€™s OTA update system while my Bronco was parked...
  4. Thoughts on the JCR Vanguard front bumper?

    I like mine, finish is holding up well after 18 months. Iā€™ve connected my motorhome tow bars to it via the shackle mounts and have towed the Bronco 7,000 miles doing that and Iā€™ve also used my winch a few times. Iā€™ve also got Baja Designs Squadron Sport lights installed and they fit perfect. I...
  5. TrailRax Modular Roof Rack For Your Bronco

    Get these and you wonā€™t need to remove crossbars. The price more than doubled since I bought them but a few minutes searching should turn up less expensive options. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083P685NT?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
  6. Ford claims flat towing our 4 mo. old Bronco destroyed the transmission (not covering under warranty)

    No longer an issue. The software mentioned was released early this year and deployed over the air.
  7. Ford claims flat towing our 4 mo. old Bronco destroyed the transmission (not covering under warranty)

    Iā€™ve got nearly 7,000 miles of flat towing my 2.7 liter, automatic Bronco under my belt and this includes going into and out of flat tow mode over 40 times. There have been a few times putting the Bronco into or taking it out of flat tow mode that I missed a step but caught myself and started...
  8. Any Willie fans?

    One of a kind and thereā€™ll never be another! Heā€™s right up there in the stratosphere with the likes of Tom Petty and other great American musicians.
  9. Do you actually use your Bronco Trail Camera?

    Iā€™ve got more than 3,000 miles off road with 500 of those being jeep trails with my Bronco. Nothing really extreme, just backcountry travel in the western mountains. Before that Iā€™ve got 45+ years (damn Iā€™m getting old...) of driving experience. My only good use for the cameras is when Iā€™m on a...
  10. Air Bag options for hunting rig setup?

    I also hunt and on recent archery cow elk and antelope hunts in Nevada, the Bronco unfortunately stayed at home and I took my full size pickup with a shell. I tent camp but my little two door simply doesnā€™t haul the gear I want to take; the big coolers for early season meat hauling being the...
  11. Neutral Tow / Transmission Problem

    I get that. I was responding to another contributor who incorrectly stated supplementary brake systems require power from the Bronco
  12. Neutral Tow / Transmission Problem

    Supplemental brake systems shouldnā€™t be getting power from your Bronco, this should come from the RV, but if it does get power from the Bronco you need to install a charge line from your RV to the Bronco.
  13. Neutral Tow / Transmission Problem

    Sucks for those having issuesā€¦. Makes me happy I had the shop that installed my Air Force 1 brake system add a charge line from my motorhome to the Bronco. This runs off the 7th pin of the coachā€™s trailer plug so thereā€™s no additional wire running from the coach to the Bronco. I also take the...
  14. Neutral Tow / Transmission Problem

    Did you run a similar test, but with the neutral tow disengaged, to determine if there was similar drop in voltage under normal conditions?
  15. What made you choose Bronco over Jeep Wrangler?

    A few reasons: We needed a vehicle to tow behind our motorhome and had planned on buying a Jeep but: 1) The Bronco is cool! 2) Iā€˜m 6ā€™6ā€ and donā€™t fit into Jeeps. Iā€˜ve got just enough room in my 2-door Bronco and itā€™s comfortable. 3) My older brother, who died unexpectedly a few years ago...
  16. Coil failure 8k miles in.

    As a boat owner whoā€˜s wired a couple of fishing boats, Iā€™d recommend marine grade heat shrink butt connectors. At least thatā€˜s what Iā€™d use. I think they do a better job of sealing the wires and preventing water invasion than traditional butt connectors with heat shrink tubing over the top of...
  17. Car wash kits?

    After trips into the dusty and/muddy Nevada back country I use a pressure washer with a foam cannon for the outside. For the inside, I open all the doors and back end and blow out the inside with an electric leaf blower. I applied top end ceramic coating by GTechniq shortly after delivery early...
  18. Nevada Baja Designs Reverse Light Mounting Bracket

    Price drop to $30.
  19. T

    You asked for opinions soā€¦.. I think itā€™s dumb and is right up there with never used recovery boards, empty Rotopax, a shovel and a Hi-Lift jack riding around on rig full time getting ruined by the elements on a rig thatā€™ll likely never have the need to use any of it.
