  1. Maxlider Front Bumper

    I"m just now getting around to installing the skid plate. Another step they skipped entirely in their video... Instead of bolting to the original two locations, the skid plate mounts to two bolts that seem to have a really high torque spec. I couldn't get them to budge and I can't tell what the...
  2. Maxlider Front Bumper

    Thanks for posting this. After a real hectic winter, I'm just now getting around to installing mine and I have to admit, this is really disappointing. For a bumper that ultimately cost me $4500, they should have provided a more adequate mounting solution that doesn't require grinding the...
  3. Rock climbing fail - flipover

    I don't know what transmission he has, but I have the 2.7 with the auto and have had my engine stall out while wheeling over an obstacle. I don't know if it was a stall or some sort of protective feature shutting it down, but the engine quit on me at least twice. I was in Normal mode, 4L...
  4. North Carolina Off-Road

    Try joining Venture Unknown on Facebook, if you can. They discuss a lot of the more adventure riding in the area there and they could probably point you to some of the roads in NC, although keep in mind, a lot of them will be in the western part of the state (Asheville and Boone area). There...
  5. Oh Sh!$ 2 Door Bronco with custom glass hardtop rolls over on trail

    He's here! Glad you are ok and were able to drive it out. I won't judge. I'm a novice also and I know even on the blue trails I've done, there is the possibility of rolling over if I screwed something up. I'm interested in knowing what happened. You might get some that judge, but I think it...
  6. Tennessee Bronco Club

    I'll be going starting in a month or two. I have a newborn and live in WNC, but will likely be going at least once a month for a day or so. Been with it 3 times and it was awesome!
  7. Broncos Of The Carolinas

    @HorizonHunter Yes, parking/acc/camera
  8. Broncos Of The Carolinas

    @jsully10 I've seen videos of 2wd trucks making it through. I would expect so, but I don't know the specs that well for the BB. I was in my Badlands Sas and it was overkill for everything. It's not terribly difficult unless it's really wet out and there is nothing requiring a ton of clearance...
  9. Broncos Of The Carolinas

    There is Hurricane Creek west of Asheville. There are a few campsites halfway through. It's nothing too technical, but there are a few washouts and narrow sections.
  10. Broncos Of The Carolinas

    I am in Asheville, I'll be removing mine soon. I'd be interesting in selling it for sure. I have the replacement bumper in my shop and should have it on sometime early January. We can try to coordinate meeting somewhere, if you are interested and willing to wait a little bit. I'll also be...
  11. 2021 Bronco on 40s eats rocks alive

    He discusses it a lot on the FB groups. Apparently they have some prototype steering system. He is one of the folks that broke their steering rods and rack early on, he replaced it with hydro steering. I'm also pretty certain he said it is off road only. I could be confusing him with someone...
  12. 2.7 engine failure tracking thread - Ford Please!

    Not yet. I will have to ask my dad for the numbers, he should have the VIN but I doubt he'll have the engine serial. I'll try to get it and get back to you
  13. 2.7 engine failure tracking thread - Ford Please!

    My dad's had all of these things happen, followed by both oil and coolant dumping out of the skid plate upon loading on the truck. From what I understand, a valve drop wouldn't cause that kind of failure, is that right? Mechanic said it was a catastrophic failure but wouldn't speculate on the...
  14. So about North Carolina?

    It's worth stopping for two or three days, they have something like 73,000 acres and a lot of various trails. I've been out three times with my Bronco on the blues and it was really fun. It's like an offroad Disneyland
  15. So about North Carolina?

    It's in TN, I'm south of Asheville and it takes me about 2 hours to get there from here.
  16. So about North Carolina?

    The biggest area in NC is Uwharrie, which is in the middle part of the state. There are smaller areas in the western part like Patriot Mountain and Hurricane Creek, but a lot of the legacy areas in WNC seem to have closed. There are a lot of overland routes with gravel roads, but if you are...
  17. Rock Sliders by Goat Fabrication

    Yep, I've done it before, just looking for a solution strong enough for it.
  18. Rock Sliders by Goat Fabrication

    I'm 100% in on these when they are ready. Can you post some photos of the mounting positions? Will they be strong enough to hi jack off of?
  19. Ford Accessory Winch Kit now available for 2021 Bronco

    I've made similar comments (with a bit less snark) and comparison of ACC to autopilot in the past. What a lot of non-pilots and less experienced pilots don't get about autopilot is that it isn't about taking control of the airplane or anything away from you, it's about reduction of fatigue and...
  20. 2.7 engine failure tracking thread - Ford Please!

    He said he was driving down the road and it started making a strange rumbling noise, then it started to smoke, which was followed by a bunch of warnings going off and the engine failing. He would've stopped sooner but the stretch of road (we used to live on it) doesn't have anywhere to pull off...
