  1. Replacement Bolts for Heavy Duty Modular Front Bumper?

    Thanks for the reminder! Hadn't bought from them in a couple years and didn't come to mind. They do have some promising stuff. I had found what "looked" right on Amazon, but I didn't trust any of it to be what it says for such a critically-loaded application. At least McMaster has drawings and...
  2. Replacement Bolts for Heavy Duty Modular Front Bumper?

    Does anyone know of a way to get longer versions of HB1? 6 of these hold the bumper on, and 4 of them go through my winch mount. The mount + spacers + frame brackets adds about 0.75” of grip length needed. I assume Ford would not have these since it’s not for a configuration they sell. But...
  3. RC High Winch Mount & Winch Install w/ Control Box Relocation

    I had already installed the RC high winch mount, and I took it all back apart tonight to add frame reinforcements from LOD. Anyone else have issues with the bolt length through the winch mount? We’ve now added a 0.25” thick mount, 0.25” spacer, and a 0.25” frame bracket, and my 4 inner bolts...
  4. Ford Performance Tune Dealer Install Issue

    Others may have said, or alluded to, this in previous posts but I believe the warranty is related to the part itself. It seems unlikely that Ford would void your car warranty for a part they sell. Some of the legal jargon is probably just to give them wiggle room if you abuse your car. I...
  5. Washington When you’re colorblind and want to make things worse…

    That is hardly the point! Like them or not, the wheels look nothing like the images. These companies should want to make the images more accurate, so that this doesn’t keep happening and making future customers mad. All of them will notice. OP, I appreciate your review, honest feedback, and...
  6. Stubby front bumpers. Let’s see ‘em!

    I have the modular bumper and added the Rough Country high mount winch bracket which bolts to the horn ends - I’m betting those reinforcement clips would be a good thing to add for me as well? If you should have them for towing it’s probably even more vulnerable while winching, and the high...
  7. Finally Upgrading!

    Fun stuff! I’ve been doing a lot of similar upgrades. I went with the LEPZ rear dome light, which as far as I could tell was identical to the IAG one for half the price. I wouldn’t recommend it however if you’re looking for back seat lighting (I was for my kids). Didn’t do much. It adds a bit...
  8. Show me your poke!

    What stripe do you have in the crease there? I’ve been thinking of a black/bronze stripe.
  9. To Wave or not to Wave?

    I do view it kind of like a club! A club of (often) like-minded and adventure-spirited people who don’t drive “what everyone else drives”. So no, I probably wouldn’t wave to Avalon drivers or Sentra drivers if I owned one of those, but I came from a Focus ST and always waved to other ST...
  10. No Ragrets- which mod do you wish you hadn’t?

    I had the same debate - decided against flaps because I don’t think they look right on a Bronco, but mostly I didn’t want to bust them up or have them in my way on trails. I’ve heard plenty of scary “clangs” once I get back on the road but so far haven’t noticed a single scar (from thrown rocks...
  11. Mabett Bronco LED "Raptor" Grille Lights Fit Bronco Badlands / Wildtrak / First Edition / Everglades Available Now!

    Not quite, I’m ok cutting and splicing if necessary. The concerning problem is that the integrated fuse is too tall, such that the cover won’t snap shut. This is true even with the OEM cover, and two different reviews said the Mabett cover was not taller and may be even shorter.
  12. Mabett Bronco LED "Raptor" Grille Lights Fit Bronco Badlands / Wildtrak / First Edition / Everglades Available Now!

    Picture attached. I tried the opposite orientation as well since the 90deg fuse can sit down lower, but then the rigid wire coming out the other side cannot turn sharply enough to avoid the side of the box.
  13. Re: Chilito has arrived!

    Congrats! I love the name, mines the green so I named it Shishito :)
  14. Winch setup For Modular HD Bumper?

    @66GT @Mishra42 For the control box relocation, the one that comes with the winch is too big. It looks like you bought a separate box and transferred? Which box and how did you mount that box? It look like it’s on top of the fuse box. And then the power cables would be too short, so I assume...
  15. Mabett Bronco LED "Raptor" Grille Lights Fit Bronco Badlands / Wildtrak / First Edition / Everglades Available Now!

    Oh that’s great, thanks for sharing! That solves the one problem, but there’s a second problem that the Mabett fuse is too tall for the cover to snap on, and some of the reviews of this aftermarket cover say it’s even a little shallower.
  16. Mabett Bronco LED "Raptor" Grille Lights Fit Bronco Badlands / Wildtrak / First Edition / Everglades Available Now!

    I just tried installing these last night, and very much ran into this issue. I was able to “smush” things into place enough to get two of the three fuse box cover clips engaged, the other is not. This makes me nervous about water intrusion so I won’t leave it long term, may end up hardwiring it...
  17. What are the easiest ditch lights to install?

    I like the look of these a lot. I’m wondering about the operational specifics though. Is it wired such that the center horizontal bar turns on automatically with the DRL and is amber, but then the other six lights go through to an Aux switch and are white?
  18. Winch setup For Modular HD Bumper?

    I recognized that mountain right away - beautiful shot! Where exactly was this taken from? And nice winch setup. I think I may do the same thing. The hidden winch looks like a bear to install, and many others protrude way too far forward for my liking (and garage geometry). I like that this is...
  19. New Bronco Owner!

    Hi all - I am a brand new Bronco owner as of about 3 weeks ago and I'm giddy with excitement every time I drive it (or sip on a beer in my garage to look at it)! I'm also new to off-roading (previous car was a Focus ST), but diving in as fast as I can - have gone out 4 times already just on...
