  1. Peavine Mountain Rescue with my Bronco Wildtrak

    Sorry for my typo even though you got what I was saying (instead OF slamming...lol). I believe the best case scenario and some manufacturer recommendations is about 6 feet of slack to start. Check out this video with Factor55 for great information on recovery using a kinetic rope and soft...
  2. Peavine Mountain Rescue with my Bronco Wildtrak

    Did you have you rope folded in half? Use the full length of rope to get the most stretch and mechanical advantage of the "rubber band" effect. I'd also ease into it a little more instead or slamming it. Also as others have said, hook up to your rear to pull. Pulling backwards is harder on your...
  3. The mountain beat me today. Stuck 3x and 1.5 hrs of winching

    Cool, thanks for the info!
  4. The mountain beat me today. Stuck 3x and 1.5 hrs of winching

    How did your RC High Winch mount hold up to all the winching? Do you have frame horn reinforcements? Just curious...glad you were able to make it out safely!
  5. Ford Performance Winch Install -- How-to DIY Video

    Interesting to see how far down around the bend in the frame horn that bottom brace goes. I’m guessing the tab piece that mounts on the back of the bumper slides into that bottom brace piece securing it all together? I wonder if more of the stress on bending frame horns under heavy load is lower...
  6. My soft shackle failure experience 🤕 -- The Off-Road Recovery That Almost Killed Me

    Lots of comments. Lots of opinions. My opinion is the "recovering" vehicle was hitting way too hard and you were buried too deep. A gentle bump backwards probably would have gotten you back up on the trail rather than plowing through 3 feet of snow. Glad you're ok.

    Hahah oh I gotcha. Glad I could help!
  8. The Official Bronco6G Photo Challenge Game 📸 🤳

    No this was from early January. Drove down from the Seattle area and did a lot of Southern Utah exploring with the wife and kid over the winter. It's insanely beautiful there. Were you stuck on the trail?

    On top of a waterfall? Toqerville Falls.
  10. Ford Performance winch mount

    I didn't know they dropped the price. 2,600 is much more palatable but still a little steep for what you can do aftermarket. Ford kind of shot themselves in the foot but losing the techy goodies like ACC and the front camera with their winch solution.
  11. Ford Performance winch mount

    This thread has everything you'd want to know about the RC High Winch mount, control box relocation, and front facing camera ideas. IMO the RC High Winch Mount is the best looking option of all the "bolt to the factory bumper" winch solutions out there. It plays well with the factory...
  12. RC High Winch Mount & Winch Install w/ Control Box Relocation

    Been following and commenting on this thread for a long time and finally able to post my finished product. Over the month of December, I got my winch all mounted and control box relocated. I put the contactor into an amazon project box mounted on the fuse box. I decided to save the rubber...
  13. Check this NOW if you have a 2021 Bronco -- cracks on rear control arm upper brackets

    ‘21 badlands 2.7, Sas, Tow Package. Built on 12/7/21 and delivered on 12/23/21. Looks boxed and not rusty. Doesn’t look cracked.
  14. I need some roof rack guidance...

    Trailrax makes the best aftermarket roof rack for the bronco if you add the pax rax. The full length members are single piece and "L" shaped. The rack is built like a tank and still allows front panels to be removed. For ultimate weight bearing capability, get the JCR reinforcement brackets that...
  15. It’s MY25, your Bronco is getting a refresh, what are your most desired changes/adjustments?

    Those of us in this forum early enough remember the full digital display was going to be included on a Lux package (or maybe it was badlands/wildtrak trims?). Anyway, the digital display in the Bronco Raptor is what I imagined I was going to get before "covid" and "chip shortages" ruined that...
  16. RC High Winch Mount & Winch Install w/ Control Box Relocation

    I have mine installed with the Tricky frame horn reinforcements. I just got it done in the last week so I haven't winched myself out of anything yet. I'd be shocked if the frame horns bent with the Tricky reinforcements. They are built like a tank. LOD offroad and Addictive desert designs each...
  17. Oh Snap! A Steering Upgrade Options & Considerations Write-Up

    How difficult is it to program the rack? I'm pretty handy and don't doubt I could get a 3.0 rack in my '21 badlands without much trouble, but I don't know jack about programing. I've read through a lot of the @BigMeatsBronco thread on the 3.0 rack and I think it's a mod I want to do this year...
  18. RC High Winch Mount & Winch Install w/ Control Box Relocation

    That's awesome! I'm glad someone else is thinking about this spot. I like your mount plate. I might fab up something like that and get my solenoid a little higher.
  19. RC High Winch Mount & Winch Install w/ Control Box Relocation

    I'm in the overall planning phase of final install of my RC high winch mount and I've got all my components in. I'm planning to add a Warn Power Interrupt solenoid to send power to the winch when I need it and for an extra level of safety. I want to mount to the battery box. Anyone think that's...
