For those searching for squeaks - I never even considered the bolt that holds the bracket above the passenger door. Cause it sounded like bottles I thought it had to be against the top. That was part of my problem - but driving to work today I still had some squeaking noises over bumps. Took...
Thanks to this thread - solved - or at least greatly reduced the squeak on my hard top. Same issue - mounting bolts against hard top by roll bar were a little loose. Got narrow fit torx bits and was able to tighten them up. 90% Gone, willing to live with the rest. I run a modular rack with...
If no sub that makes a lot of sense so depends on model and year. In my case there was zero room in the passenger side. My guess is you could squeeze up to 50ah on that side…but wasn’t an option on mine so don’t know.
AGMs ok to lie flat, just not upside down. I over fused it both for ease...
Your build looks awesome. If I had a flat tent I would probably run solar on the roof, but think it would look ghetto on the Autohome. I think I have to add risers n
re batteries, in theory you are correct. And in most cases they will work well. However I have seen a bunch of unrecoverable...
On the battery pack I didn't care about the cost. For me it is about volatility, ease of recycling, better connections, no worries around cold (or hot) weather. But the volatility is huge for me. I had several lithium fires over the in various businesses I managed. So lead is a simple way to...
I prefer sticking with good old AGM lead acid batteries. Not everyone will agree with that, however I believe there are a few good reasons. IF something happens, shorts, etc- lithium is impossible to put out. You gotta let it burn, which in turn burns down the truck. And this is mounted...
Followed these instructions found on forum. Worked great.

you need a dc to dc charger, can’t use a solonoid as it is a smart alternator. There is a harness there but it won’t help. You have to run at least a 4 gauge battery cable back to the rear to the dc to dc charger. I used a factory ground spot

Appreciate the response.
I permanently run an Auto home tent on it. Had horrible rattles at first, then put foam blocks under it and most of the noises went away. Instead had rattles happening up front, metal on metal noises. After removing the wind deflector, saw where there were two little...
Curious. What issue you've been having? Their customer service leaves much to be desired. I really like their product, bought lots for my Renegade over the years. But not super responsive. Not sure if they are even still going to make the rack, has me wondering if there were other issues...
Watched some of your videos as I debated racks. I ordered one which came months before my Bronco did, Valkyrie seems short staffed and not super helpful. I was shorted some bolts, after a few days Corey responded that it was out of the "30 day warranty" and I would have to pay shipping. Told...
I had issue as well….didn’t snap but one bolt seemed cross threaded over factory paint when I removed it. Putting new rack on, put on factory bolt…and it spun and got stuck in place. These are tiny bolts that seem super weak so just leaving it. Just be super careful with these things.
My advice for y'all - and I guess myself included - stop wasting your time tracking your damn bronco. Mine was built over two months ago. Lost sleep over when it would hit the rail. Finally did after a month. Quick trip across the country - and now its been sitting at richmond for close to a...
Mine still sitting in Richmond. Going to Morgan hill which is one of the biggest dealers around. Maybe next week? Dealer said last Thursday but that came and went.
