  1. Hanging door bags from garage wall?

    I have the standard garage door storage bags and don't like using the storage cart I built. Has anyone tried hanging the doors from the door storage bag handles? I did this with my hard top bags, but they seemed to have heavier duty handles. JR
  2. Heavy Duty Protective Vinyl

    When I installed my Bestop Trektop, I used the included vinyl adhesive stickers placed under the rear cargo area brackets to protect the fenders from damage. Unfortunately, I suck at putting stickers on complex shapes, so they look crappy. I'd like to have a local place I've worked with before...
  3. Father/Son Trip to NH Off-Roadeo - LONG POST WARNING

    My son and I previously flew from Charleston to Philly to pick up my 2022 Wildtrak, then drove it down through the Shenandoah Valley, and I posted photos from that trip here. We just did the Off-Roadeo in New Hampshire last Friday (30-JUN-2023) and it was COMPLETELY worth it. I took as many...
  4. South Carolina Sold: FS - OEM 4 Door MIC Top - NEW PRICE $6500 OBO

    I have my hard top with sound deadening headliner for sale. I drove with this on the vehicle for about 1000 highway miles between Philly and Charleston. I drove home, slept, and removed the MIC to install the Bestop Trektop. I liked the MIC top, and it was certainly quieter than my Trektop, but...
  5. My DIY Oil Catch Can

    I was able to pick up this C&L oil catch can for a Mustang from American Muscle for $17 a few weeks ago, and went about adapting it for use on the 2.7L in the Bronco. I also needed PCV quick disconnects so I didn't have to harvest the ones from the stock passenger side. I found these from Mighty...
  6. Oil Separator - $17

    FYSA. American Muscle (who I usually don't like to do business with) has a C&L oil separator for the Mustang available for $17 on a massive discount. It's obviously not for the Bronco, but these are pretty easy to adapt. I just grabbed two, and will be figuring out a way to make it work. I have...
  7. My impressions of driving in various configurations

    As ordered: 4 door Wildtrak w/ MIC and Bestop Trektop MIC Top On: I kept the MIC on for the initial 1300 drive from Philly to Charleston, then for the first week of ownership. It's nice and quiet, damps noises, and I didn't hear much in the way of squeaks or rattles from the top. Panels are...
  8. Kids - ID for Age?

    I'm taking my son to the Off-Roadeo in a few months, and he'll have just turned 12. But, he doesn't have any sort of ID. Do they check for anything like that? I don't want to get him there and find out that I didn't bring appropriate paperwork, and he's not going to be able to attend, or that we...
  9. Driver's rear window won't stay up

    Check out the video. The driver's rear window goes up, seems to hit the seal, then automatically goes back down. This has happened with other windows in the past, but I can usually get it to stop by shutting the vehicle off, opening the door, turning the vehicle back on, then rolling the window...
  10. Water dripping on exhaust?

    I parked the Wildtrak today and heard what sounded like electrical sizzling from the truck. I crawled underneath and could see water dripping down a wiring harness on the passenger side of the engine, and onto the hot exhaust. Any ideas? I have a video, but it's too large to upload here. JR
  11. Havoc Trailcrawler Steps Installed

    My wife pretty much demanded that I install steps on the Wildtrak, because it's tough for her to get into and out of, and I really liked the look of the Havoc Trailcrawler steps. I don't intend to do any crazy offroading, so I didn't need to buy anything that was a dedicated slider. Ordered...
  12. Valve Stem Covers - Too Short

    All - I got a set of nicely made valve stem covers from Fero Machines, and they look great. Unfortunately, the stock valve stems have a shoulder after the threads that is hidden by the stock valve stem covers, despite the fact that they're the same overall length as the Fero Machines units...
  13. Bestop Trektop Install Issues

    Just finished up with my Bestop Trektop install. Wow. That's a lot of work. All told, including finishing up my hoist and getting the hard top off, I'd say I put in a solid eight hours today. If I'd had a helper, I probably could have cut a ton of time off, but I have COVID, so I was all by my...
  14. Father/Son Bronco delivery roadtrip home from Philly to Charleston!

    Long post warning! My Wildtrak arrived last week at Chapman Ford of Northeast Philly, so my son and I flew from Charleston to Newark, then hitched a ride with family to the dealership. Overall, the experience was great, other than the fact that they "lost" my Bestop, and had to "find" it in the...
  15. South Carolina Sold: FS: Mustang Performance Package Wheels

    I got the stock PP1 wheels from my 2016 Mustang GT/PP available. They've been stored in the wheel boxes that my PP2 wheels came in, but those have disintegrated from the humidity. Wheels are in good used condition, some light scratches and rock chips. No bends, cracks, or curb rash. These will...
  16. Traveling with Both Tops

    I ordered my Wildtrak 4D through Chapman, in Philly, so I'll have to drive it about 14 hours to get it back to Charleston. I bought both the MIC and soft top, and it kinda just dawned upon me that I'll need to travel home with both tops. Has anyone else done this? I assume I'd need to have the...
