  1. Any fixes? Wheel / tire damage

    Polishing compound will take out whatever is able to come out. If that doesn't get it back to where you want there are tons of wheel repair services out there that can straighten and refinish. Like someone said above - these are readily available on Craigslist, FB Marketplace, etc. That may...
  2. One year review - Badlands 2 door

    That would be fine too. They are few and far between these days.
  3. One year review - Badlands 2 door

    Itā€™s been exactly one year since I picked up my 2 door Badlands. It has seen off-road action in 5 states, 7 dedicated off road parks, and a handful of ā€˜non-sanctionedā€™ trails. Not nearly as many off-road miles as I was hoping for after 1 year, but ā€˜life thingsā€™ sometimes get in the way of...
  4. DFW peeps with 2.3 and aftermarket exhaust

    I really like the sound except for 1000-1300 RPM. It isn't bad with the top on, but picks up a little drone with the top off in that narrow RPM range. Another high flow muffler upstream would probably make it perfect. I am quite surprised at how much time the motor spends there - it travels...
  5. DFW peeps with 2.3 and aftermarket exhaust

    Update - I broke down and bought the Flowmaster Amer Thunder. Mostly like it - a little loud between 1,000-1,300 rpm, but otherwise sounds pretty great. I may tune it with an upstream resonator or another high flow muffler. It definitely improves the driving experience, especially shifting...
  6. Help: I purchased a factory stolen Bronco Raptor and had no idea

    This gets my vote for most under-rated post in this thread. For the OP, it doesn't make a difference if he makes it or not.
  7. DFW peeps with 2.3 and aftermarket exhaust

    Anyone in DFW with a 2.3 and aftermarket exhaust that is willing to let me have a listen to their setup? I've been shopping for exhaust for a while, and the online recordings just don't seem to capture what they really sound like. I am wiling to travel to you, or we could meet up at Bridgeport...
  8. Guys... I found THE best Bronco deal of the year

    This was the first thing I noticed. Could be the lighting for the nose (face?) (bumper?), but it doesn't appear to match Maybe the wheels were done in the correct color, but the color is physically too close to the black so your eye blends them together. They look too dark, or kind of purple-ish.
  9. Badlands SAS or Non-SAS ?

    Badlands get front and rear locker without SAS
  10. Badlands SAS or Non-SAS ?

    I did an off road event that was set up by Ford for Bronco order holders. This was a year or so before mine was built. This wasn't Off Rodeo, it was a shorter duration, but we still got to do some semi-serious wheeling. The Ford rep that was in the Bronco with me said he couldn't officially...
  11. Show us your auxiliary back up lights!

    Look a couple posts back - there are pics of how I mounted them.
  12. Finally found a phone mount that checks the boxes... Sorta

    You should see what I did to the harness that came with my KC lights. Not a big deal if the solution is better than the original design.
  13. Finally found a phone mount that checks the boxes... Sorta

    I really like this solution. Adjustability for both driver and passenger viewing is important to me, and this makes passenger viewing possible. Nicely done.
  14. What’s the most fun 100 miles from DFW

    Here is a second vote for Northwest OHV in Bridgeport. Trails range from easy dirt roads to ā€˜holy crap you canā€™t even walk thatā€™. They had a night ride last weekend that was a blast. http://www.cityofbridgeport.net/322/Northwest-OHV-Park
  15. What’s your most annoying feature on the Bronco?

    I have heard others say this too - to each his own. My problem with the digital speedo is that you have to read it, you can't use peripheral vision to know how fast you're going. With an analog dial you can get the information without even looking directly at it. If you have to give me a...
  16. What’s your most annoying feature on the Bronco?

    Worthlesss tach. Worthless digital speedo. Excess space taken up on dash by both of those.
  17. Show us your auxiliary back up lights!

    No trailer wiring on mine - I deleted trailer tow option to increase my chances of production. This is the Curt hitch added after delivery. I only use the hitch to move trailers around my property or for a bike rack, so no need for trailer lights on the Bronco. I used a pre-fab harness to...
  18. Show us your auxiliary back up lights!

    Absolutely. They add a lot extra visibility. They will be even better after they are aimed to the sides more.
  19. Show us your auxiliary back up lights!

    I really like them. Night time pics are tricky - modern cameras do such a great job gathering light that pictures like this are difficult to assess. I unscientifically equate them to the factory fogs that come in the capable bumper, except the KC's are a flood beam not a spot beam. They shoot...
  20. Show us your auxiliary back up lights!

    They are bolted directly to the receiver hitch. I got lucky with the Curt hitch - the holes were already there. I like how hidden and protected they are in that spot. The only downside is they are pointed straight back. I would like them aimed to the sides more, but that mounting method doesnā€™t...
