  1. DIY Canoe Rack

    This is an older model canoe and fairly heavy. Not certain of the manufacturing technique but the hull by my best guess is 1/8" or more thick plastic and not a portaging delight. A catastrophic failure of the clamps or rack would be necessary for blow-off but consideration for an accident...
  2. DIY Canoe Rack

    I get your point on uplift, but if the hulls are junk as you suggest, how would tying off with a double bow line guarantee anything. Are you suggesting that the hull will/could rip free from the aluminum components? I have added straps over the hull for added securement. Does make me wonder...
  3. DIY Canoe Rack

    The gunwhales are aluminum and clamped down by 1/4" steel plate with an L shape lower plate with upturned leg. These are contoured to the profile of the canoe so even if the toggles came loose, and they never have, the profile of the canoe would not allow the canoe to come free. The toggle...
  4. DIY Canoe Rack

    For over 30 years I've been reusing some simple clamping hardware that my father-in-law fabricated from steel plate and threaded rod moving it from rack to rack with vehicle changes. With the arrival of my BD Bronco last year I began envisioning the latest adaptation. Made of simple wood...
  5. Does your Bronco have squeaks and rattles?

    I have a rattle from or in the driver door. It started after trying to open the door the first time the windows froze up. It might also be from the driver side passanger door as Ive not fully pin pointed it. Something sounds loose in one of those doors. Thoughts or knowledge anyone?
  6. Rear driver door window mechanism-adjustment

    My drivers side passenger door window is or came out of alignment. Lots of wind noise because it no longer seals well. This happened after the windows froze shut on Christmas Eve with the Siberian express and the door got closed with the window stuck in the up position. Still need to look at...
  7. What do you guys think of painting the fender flares????

    Many people I know refer to Cyber Orange as "you mean, school bus yellow"? With Black in the scheme, I'd think more along the lines of "Tonka Yellow". CO was my first color choice before switching to EG and using the 5 Benjamin savings for the mod bumper.
  8. Guys, why the heck does everyone debadge their trim emblems?

    Dare I say that my dealer's sticker almost looks better than the BD sticker. I only say almost though, because I like the BD sticker graphic, but think a molded badge would have been a better approach.
  9. 📧 Bad news Friday... official email from Ford: "Urgent information regarding your Ford Bronco order."

    Thanks for saying "reality". It's such a hard pill to swallow for some. I know someone with a "I want it, I want it, I want it so bad attitude" but they are not ordering, they just want to find the exact thing they want on a lot but without exorbitant mark-up. I just politely wish them well...
  10. 📧 Bad news Friday... official email from Ford: "Urgent information regarding your Ford Bronco order."

    Hmm? Wondering how placing multiple orders plays into this mix of demand out stripping supply?
  11. Bash Plates are Plastic on my OBX 2023 (UPDATE) OBX is a MISBUILD. Well this is good news. My dealership got me all new bash plates and installed

    My bash/skid plates are steel along with the modular bumper upgrade on my 2022 Black Diamond. I'd be as disappointed as I was to learn that they shifted to the 'capable' bumper as standard on this model between 2021 and 2022 but at least I knew I could upgrade.
