  1. Brake light fuse(s)

    My problem ended up being the harness plugs really couldn't stand much wiggling. I had to re-seat a few of the wires. It's been a couple years so I don't recall exactly what it was, other than a pain in the ass that would not have been had Curt built the harness correctly and/or actually...
  2. Flat tow equipment needed to flat tow the 2021 Bronco?

    If you look for a recent post by me I describe what I did tapping an unused fuse slot suggested by another post.
  3. What’s it like to flat tow?

    I think it would be easier to to what I did or add another 12v socket behind the dash. I don't know how to go about chasing down the wire to wire it as battery hot and I am very leery about electrical modifications in new cars. I'd rather build parallel systems than modify.
  4. What’s it like to flat tow?

    I clipped off the round socket plug and added a pig tail plug to it. I then tapped into the fuse panel in a hot but unused socket for the other pig tail. It should have been easier to ground than it was. The fuse number is 29 which is always hot but un-used. This is the thread where I found...
  5. What’s it like to flat tow?

    I have the RVi Brake3 but I don't have much of a basis of comparison. I chose it because I needed a new TPMS and I liked that I can monitor everything, including the battery charger, on one screen. I also liked the wireless breakaway. It is definitely really easy to set up and take down. On a...
  6. Flat tow equipment needed to flat tow the 2021 Bronco?

    We have LED lights and it doesn't work in them either. Curt didn't believe me at first and made me prove that our outer banks actually had LEDs, despite all the literature and windows sticker saying 'signature LED lights front and rear', or something similar. That's why you can't find the...
  7. Flat tow equipment needed to flat tow the 2021 Bronco?

    I'm sure it is not available because it doesn't work for its intended purpose. I think they'll be using a different part number once they get a fixed one out. You can wire your own harness pretty easily and for 1/2 the price. Just make sure you do a good job with your connections. I did it on...
  8. Brake light fuse(s)

    So I've looked at the fuse assignments for both the under the hood and under the steering wheel fuse boxes. Here is my resource: https://fuse-box.info/ford/ford-bronco-2021-fuses I cannot locate the one for the rear brake lights. I've been getting jerked around trying to install a Curt wiring...
  9. Flat tow equipment needed to flat tow the 2021 Bronco?

    Someone is selling a like new ready brake tow bar for $800 on Facebook. It has jeep bumper tabs, that will probably work with a custom bumper. They look a little thin to make fit the modular bumper. It is in a group called...
  10. Flat tow equipment needed to flat tow the 2021 Bronco?

    Yeah I had that smell on my last toad. Not as strong as this time. Like I said it didn't happen on the second trip with the Bronco. Hopefully it goes away for good.
  11. Flat tow equipment needed to flat tow the 2021 Bronco?

    We have only gone through the connect/disconnect cycle twice and haven't encountered any signs of a problem yet like you describe. We did notice a burnt plastic odor when driving after towing it the first time (150 miles), but it didn't happen the second. I have been confused by the check...
  12. Flat tow equipment needed to flat tow the 2021 Bronco?

    A big difference between this and a boat trailer system is that the tongue force drives a master cylinder that hydraulically drives the caliper in a closed system. The ready brake is a little more complicated, invoking cables. It has some upside, and I'm not hating on it, but it is different...
  13. What’s it like to flat tow?

    I have a 32' Class A with 2 slides. 2001 model on an F53 chassis w/V10. It is a fairly heavy rig. I have Banks power pack on it. Last week we towed our 2.3L 4 door Outer Banks to Big Bear, CA. up about 7000'. I definitely felt it going up hill. I actually haven't ever driven this MH without...
  14. Flat tow equipment needed to flat tow the 2021 Bronco?

    Curt released one that they later said was for LED only but in actuality didn't work with any of them. They recently told me that they were working on a new one. I wouldn't buy one now. If you are in a bind and can't wait, it isn't hard to splice in your your own diodes if you know how to do the...
  15. Flat tow equipment needed to flat tow the 2021 Bronco?

    I mostly agree with you but I did leave a couple things out that I should have shared. They did send me a document showing how to work with a Molex plug but the videos I saw were easier to follow, so I didn't share it. They offered to send me a replacement when ready. They did not share...
  16. Flat tow equipment needed to flat tow the 2021 Bronco?

    I got word from Curt about the 58992. The tech rep confirmed that the wiring harness does not work the the LED tail lights. He said it was due to some change by Ford. They are working on a revised harness. He also said that the pin swap shown will work.
  17. Matt’s Offroad Recovery rescues a Bronco by welding tie rods on the trail!

    The Morrvair is the bitchenist truck I've ever seen. That thing looks so sweet. No doubt MORR did something wrong. I put most of it on the a-hole customer that was trying to pull a fast one with AAA. Used his buddies AAA membership to tow out a RZR. I'm surprised Matt even when for it. He...
  18. Flat tow equipment needed to flat tow the 2021 Bronco?

    I had an "oh yeah" moment when I was thinking things through the afternoon before we left on our trip, realizing that I hadn't worked out where to connect the cable. I picked up a 1' section of chain and a master link for each. I ran the chain through the loop under the tow bar connection. Not...

    And weight.
  20. What's your overlanding power solution?

    If I were looking to do this I'd build one myself. Sure these 'power stations' are slick, work well, have trendy names and lots of cool lights, but you can DIY one that meets your specific needs for 1/2 the price of the more expensive units. That Bluetti looks like a decent deal, though. I have...
