  1. Sta-Bar Failure Rate

    I've seen enough threads to know this isn't an anomaly. Maybe an informal poll will provide more data. Feel free to also post with your stories. Mine is documented here: My Sta-Bar Saga, Water Ingress?
  2. Gobblers Knob

    After multiple attempts to find an open route to Gobblers Knob in the Tillamook State Forest we finally find success. Because of private logging lands to the south of Gobblers Knob it's not uncommon to find locked gates preventing access to the area. But north of Barney Reservoir it's a mix of...
  3. Windy Point, Oregon

    ...or how I spent my St. Patricks Day. I sometimes get too obsessed with planning a route and then disappointed when I can get there. All of the closed gates I hit is slowly changing my perspective so that I can just enjoy the scenery. But it is nice to be so close to both the city and the...
  4. Lobo Suspension with X-Travel Technology Revolutionizes Ford Bronco Off-Road Performance!

    @Lobo Off-Road I can't believe you didn't post first. Mods are welcome to make them the OP. Questions: With apparently no steering feedback is this road legal/safe? Where did this design come from? Is it used on racing trucks now? Why couldn't you have stuck a GoPro under the front so we could...
  5. Mountains2Metal Squatch Basket mods

    @Mountains2Metal basket is pretty cool but I canā€™t leave it alone. The first thing I noticed was that some things would slide around. So I got some thin silicone drawer liner material, cut it out and that problem is solved. If I run without the tops Iā€™d need to glue the pad down. Speaking of...
  6. Molalla River Run

    This time the Oregon Broncos headed out the Molalla River area. While ultimately the route was blocked the crew still managed to find some snow and excuses to exercise the recovery gear. This recreational area has exquisite scenery, river access and camping areas. All of the logging areas were...
  7. Exploring the Oregon Forest

    On Sunday I had a couple hours to go play and I had been scouting an area west of McMinnville, Oregon. Using onXoffroad I thought there would be some nice views from a couple spots. Weyerhaeuser thought differently. Still a day wondering the woods is still better than most things.
  8. My Sta-Bar Saga, Water Ingress?

    Started off a few weeks ago with the first error message on the screen to Service the Sta-Bar. That's the message you can dismiss (and it keeps coming back). Took it to the dealer and they performed TSB 23-2400 (which I think is the same as 23-2006?). Clean, inspect and dielectric grease...
  9. Dovre Peak, Oregon More Snow!

    The previous video (https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/sheridan-peak-or-snow-day.87342/) was a scouting trip for this longer route, with a larger group. While we never actually made it to the top of Dovre Peak we certainly got close... twice. And this wasn't the actual route that I had...
  10. At the end of your rope... hook or soft shackle?

    What do you have at the end of your winch line, a hook or soft shackle? This is what I currently have: I don't love the idea of something heavy at the end of the winch line so a soft shackle seems best. Thoughts?
  11. Sheridan Peak, OR Snow Day

    I got jealous of seeing all the pictures of Broncos in the snow, so along with @aermtr we did something about that. This the Sheridan Peak area, west of Carlton (the mountains between Portland and the Coast). Nice, deep, powdery snow and although it was a pavement it was still ā€œoff roadingā€. šŸ˜...
  12. Goat Mountain Oregon

    Great drive today to the Green Mountain and Goat Mountain area. We started in Molalla and I was afraid weā€™d hit more dead ends. I had heard there were a lot of closed gates coming from the west side. We only ended up turning around twice. From the north side of Green Mountain there was a...

  14. Trail Mater tows out Bronco with punctured transmission pan

    The transmission pans is pretty far up but this owner managed to puncture theirs. The first thing I thought was that you put your tires UP on obstacles. But stuff can happen. I wasn't that far off the beaten path so I was impressed by how far back the Bronco got especially since it appeared...
  15. Nicolai Mountain OHV Trail

    Using the Bronco Trail App we decide to explore Nicolai Mountain OHV just east of Astoria, Oregon. While it was mostly gravel roads there were a couple entertaining sections. There may be more 4x4 trails that we didn't take. The view was pretty nice at the top. The Bronco Trail App still need a...
  16. Mt. Hood Trail Ride

    Some folks from the Portland Metro area got together up on Mt. Hood and found some trails. We started on Barlow Road (part of the Oregon Trail). There we found a pretty easy road but the stormy conditions meant we had to cut some trees out of the way. Now I have a chainsaw on my Christmas list...
  17. Rough Country Hidden Kit plus Badland Winch V6 Install

    I've been eyeing the RC Hidden Winch for my 2.7 Badlands although I'm not looking forward to some of the challenges. They won't stop me but they may slow me down. I've seen the @evilletruck video and initially I was leaning toward the RC winch as it seems like it might go in better. But then I...
  18. Browns Camp Trails in the Tillamook Forest, Oregon

    Had a great outing with several forum members in the Oregon area. Definitely tight trails in areas but nothing a Bronco couldn't handle.
  19. Viair 7 pin Adapter

    https://www.viaircorp.com/electrical/7-way-power-access Patent pending? Thats a waste of time. Would this actually work to power a small air compressor? Whatā€™s the max amps on the Bronco 7 wire connector?
  20. Inspired Overland RTT and Hooke Roof Rack installed

    I got the Hooke Rack a couple weeks ago. Iā€™ll post a link to that install. https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/475-hooke-road-discovery-roof-rack-review.68710/post-1930263 And then yesterday I stopped by Inspired Overland to pick up my tent. Iā€™m on a month long road trip and this was an...
