  1. Wide vs Narrow Tires for offroad performance -- a scientific comparison

    Tinkerer has a really neat video out about the effects of tire width on performance. I personally also really like the pizza cutter look. If only there were more options in the narrow tire catagory like these MTs. Would love a 255 load C tire.
  2. Procal Tune For Transmission Tuning

    I am interested in getting the Procal Tune primarily for the transmission smoothness that is in so many of the reviews. I have a sports car for going fast, so I am not looking to make the Bronco any quicker. I do daily the Bronco and put close to 20k miles per year on it running mostly 87 with...
  3. Can I use a Aux switch to trigger the fans. Bronco Oil Temp gets HOT in 4 lo.

    So I recently spent a day doing a bunch of low speed crawling at Barnwell Mountain, and I found that when the AC was off the oil and trans temps would get pretty hot. 225 oil and 210+ for the trans temps. When I kicked the AC on (and forced the fans onto low speed) the temps would come back...
  4. Took my Badlands to Barnwell Mountain in Texas

    I spent this past weekend camping and wheeling in Barnwell Mountain OHV Park in Gilmer TX. I took my 4 door badlands non-SAS and my brother brought his lifted GX470 on 32s. Barnwells maps system is not the greatest, but we used a combination of the Maprika app and OnX and the signs to keep...
  5. Discount Tire punched a hole in my tire, but replaced it for free.

    So this is an interesting one. I noticed the other day that my rear tire had a screw right in the center of my tread. This wasn't a big concern for me, as DiscountTire is only a couple minutes away and by this point they are familiar with me for both flat repair and buying new tires. I went...
  6. Offroad with 4x4 Life Offroad St Francisville, LA

    I took my Badlands offroad today for the first time. Still had the temp tags on. It was a blast, but realistically I probably needed 35s. Did quite a bit of belly dragging in the mud. Before we got started, @mcinfantry has some issues with his tire debeading when dropping pressure. Got it...
  7. Window and door alignment was way off (2023)

    I just got finished realigning the rear passenger window and both driver side doors. From first pick up both driver side doors' front leading edge protruded 1-2mm from the panel in front. It seems like something that should be caught on inspection, but it was quite simple to fix. I loosened...
  8. Louisiana ISO Stock rear sway bar

    I am looking for someone looking to sell their stock rear swaybar setup from their SAS. I am looking for the whole bit, including the swaybar, endlinks and bolts. I am located in Baton Rouge, but often travel anywhere between Houston and Atlanta.
  9. Two orders, both just got selected. What to do??

    I reached out to two dealers in September of 2021 about a build. I sent both a full build sheet. One dealer responded (dealer A) and I placed the order, signed the DORA, paid the deposit. The other dealer (dealer B) never responded. Fast forward to October of 22 when Ford cracked down on...
  10. Raise Breakover Angle/Tummy Tuck Options

    With @Tricky Dick 's post yesterday about the issues with crawling, it brought up a few things from my past TJ days. Unarguably, the 6G has a lower frame rail height than Jeeps at similar tire sizes. On the TJ jeeps with the huge shovel looking center skid, most people doing any sort of...
  11. Change Order for MY23? Decisions BL to Heritage?

    I currently have a Non-Sas 4 door Badlands in CG with the 2.7 on order. I ordered in September of 21. This has been my "ideal" bronco build from the start, but the recent release of the Heritage Edition and the lead foot grey has me really struggling on my decision. I love the squared...
  12. Resources for finding Off-Road Trails and Trip Planning?

    I searched with no luck. We have all of these new people getting broncos, and tons of talk on how to upgrade and a thousand different ways to modify to suit the needs of every buyer, but I cannot find good resources on where to take the Bronco off-road. It almost seems like there should be...
  13. Dealer Recommendations in Gulf South (Houston to FL Panhandle to Tennessee)

    I am trying to place an order for a 2022. I do not have a reservation. I realize I am likely 12+ months out from delivery. Every dealer I have called so far is either out of allocations for 2022 or will not call me back. Does anyone have a recommendation for a dealer and contact in the gulf...
  14. Gulf South Is there hope for a new order to get a 2022?

    So I have been following the Bronco release closely, and decided to wait to test drive one before ordering. I know, huge mistake. I finally got to test drive in August and have been trying to find a dealer since. I was repeatedly told to wait for the 2022 order banks by multiple dealers. Now...
