  1. Soft top rear bow corner cast aluminum bracket broken.

    I did a repair using aluminum flat stock that has held up really well and feels stronger than the original bracket. The finished repair looks fine to me and really unnoticeable unless you really compare both sides.
  2. Vinyl decal questions - recommendations & long term paint issues

    I'm considering installing a vinyl hood overlay decal and wondering if there are any issues with longer term paint fade issues or any other discoloration problems. I recall problems with removed pinstripes on 70s and 80s vehicles I owned. Also, any recommendations on specific vinyl decal...
  3. Hard top hoist with 2 contact points (pics)

    I used 2 inch 90deg. steel angle that was 1/4 inch thick that I had laying around...…I ended up milling off approx. 1/6" thickness on the flat to let it slide into the roof rack gaps without interference. If I was to do it again, I would start with 3/16" 2 inch angle to simplify the project...
  4. Hard top hoist with 2 contact points (pics)

    Believe it or not, the rear roof rack slots are the perfect balance points....the top lifts straight and flat. It's also nice to have one attach point so I can rotate the top from storage to installation. The only panel I store on the top is the center panel that doesn't weigh much...I don't...
  5. Anyone use high clearance crash bar kit?

    I opted to install Icon High Clearance crash bars on my factory Sasquatch. These are really easy to install and do have plenty of clearance for the 35s. You would need to purchase bolts if you currently don't have crash bars installed. I assume you already have the mounting bolts so not...
  6. Hard top hoist with 2 contact points (pics)

    I would think there would be too much flex with threaded rod unless its really heavy gauge. Also, if there is too much flex on the rod, the end brackets may flex the slots in the hard top causing potential damage....at which point, the Unistrut makes more sense.
  7. Hard top hoist with 2 contact points (pics)

    I duplicated an idea from this post and it worked out terrific. The sliding hoist makes it simple to remove and store my hardtop away from the car. I have a soft top for summer season so this is a semi-permanent storage solution. I think that the cross brace/support would work great for...
  8. Soft top rear bow corner cast aluminum bracket broken.

    Thanks Flip! DM sent. I think its the strap putting too much pressure on this....there seems to be limited options to adjust this as moving the rear latch brackets up puts daylight under the weatherstrip and I lose the seal above the rear quarter panel and the straps aren't adjustable without...
  9. Soft top rear bow corner cast aluminum bracket broken.

    Wondering if anyone has seen this before.... I have a 2023 version (v2?)of the soft top....I noticed that rear window was a bit warped. Once I removed the windows, the bow separated/split at the driver side corner. Looks like the aluminum corner bracket cracked at the point where it meets the...

  13. Installing Ford Performance Tune Help in Connecticut

    Haven’t done it yet. Decided to hold off given questions re: warranty after installation. Car only has 3000 miles on it now and I decided to wait until I have more confidence that no ongoing concerns.

  15. Installing Ford Performance Tune Help in Connecticut

    McMahon Ford in Norwalk was unaware/unable to do the tune install...they were also unclear on the warrantee question so I left it there. It's good to know that Stamford can do it.....please let me know once you have it done and if you bring your own tune box so I may follow suit.
  16. Installing Ford Performance Tune Help in Connecticut

    That's great advice on the licensing.....Glastonbury is not too bad a drive form me so it's a good option/recommendation. Has anyone re-installed the original tune? Why would one need to revert after dealer install? I assume this will only make things more convoluted as the re-install would...
  17. Installing Ford Performance Tune Help in Connecticut

    I was thinking that can be a possibility but concerned if any warranty related issues come around the bend.
  18. Installing Ford Performance Tune Help in Connecticut

    I'm interested in installing the tune on my Bronco but very interested in keeping warrantee on the car....I've contacted my local ford dealer and they are unfamiliar with the tune and aren't able/willing to install the tune for me..... I understand the process is very straightforward and I'm...
