  1. Change Driveline Fluids Early!

    Thanks everyone for this thread and your contributions. I used stock viscosities (the Bronco lives at 9000 ft = cooler). At 25K, front diff fluid was a bit dark, transfer case a bit darker. Rear diff looked great.
  2. Bronco Wildtrak kicks butt on the Sand Chute (on Matt's Offroad Recovery)

    Based on years of backcountry experience, I'd say Matt was suffering dehydration. Gravelly voice, disoriented etc. Very dangerous game in those temps.
  3. ERUPTION GREEN Bronco Club

    Great summer in the Southwest!
  4. Show Us Your Coolers! (Not Fridges)

    Our old max cool served just fine. It was supplanted by a nearly new Yeti yesterday for $200. Frickin thing is 40 pounds empty!
  5. Build quality absolute garbage (Closed due to insults)

    I think they have. My June 2022 hardtop has been great. No leaks or glue issues. They come off and go on as expected. Overall, the truck has been excellent. I did chase down and resolve a small leak in the rear underfloor storage compartment. That was a design issue.
  6. Some brief towing action

    Helped my buddy Jim with his resto- boat. He is taking it to a competition this weekend. It's a 1960 15' Glastron converted to electric. He can run on plane for about 45 minutes at about 100 amps. Burst to 200 amps at about 18 knots using two big lithium batteries.
  7. Window auto index goes up before door is closed.

    It might. I just put my doors back on and one window was not behaving. I reset it and it was fine.
  8. Window auto index goes up before door is closed.

    Try the reset procedure. Roll window down and hold the button for 5 seconds. Roll it up and hold the button for 5 seconds.
  9. Bronco closing in on Jeep Wrangler in latest sales stats (Q1 2023)

    I must admit, I do carry a spare tie rod and wish the raptor steering gear was standard across the line. But oh man, the ride is amazing in our Badlands...
  10. Burning oil smell after drives?

    Do you have a long grade heading toward your house. I notice a smell after shutting down from a long grade like up to the trailhead. My previous F150 EB did it as well. The turbos get red hot!
  11. Plug welds missing on axle tube

    Never welded at all? Dammit! You're making me get under the truck again!
  12. Condensation / Moisture in Rear Under Floor Storage Area

    Pull the back floor, remove the plastic tub and seal with weatherstripping or silicone caulk. Reinstall. I also added two sheet metal bolts on the forward edge. Mine was leaking under the forward edge of the gasket.
  13. Condensation under the floor of the cargo area

    Fought it all winter. The bin needs more bolts on the perimeter to compress that gasket. Especially on the crucial forward edge. Some engineer at Ford made a bad decision here. You can see where muddy water ingressed under the factory gasket. I'm resolving with a thick bead of silicone On...
  14. Rate the quality of your Bronco.

    Have always owned a Ford Truck. Never go to the shop. What's up with the valve cover?
  15. Broncos and fishing- lets see em

    It's still frosty here, but here's fishcamp in the wilderness last August.....
  16. Rear inverter install....

    Thanks! I ordered one. I'm gonna keep working on mounting it behind the access panel....
  17. Rear inverter install....

    In the winter, we like to plug in our ski boots to and from the slopes. Our heaters draw 13W each. Likely less than .25 amps. Are there recommendations for a cargo area inverter with 2 sockets? I'd like to do a proper installation rather than zip tying something to the rollbar. Maybe...
  18. Using the Bronco the way they (somewhat) intended in ‘66 -- farm, ranch, agriculture

    Ah. Farmies. Back in the day, my equestrianne girlfriend continued with her frequent surprises and brought home an effing pony in my 1971 Bronco. Tethered to the roll bar. Yes, it crapped on the floor. She was lucky it didn't kick her in the head while driving down the dirt road. Life...
