That's exactly who I was going to recommend. I reached out to him on FB and he linked me back to this thread. So looks like we got him from both angles!
Swapped out my factory 33s for 35s. Pulled the crash bars to replace with the higher clearance lower profile version from Readylift. Front bars slot in just fine, just like the factory ones.
Rear bars, different story. They appear to be slightly too large. Pounding on them with a mallet I can...

Strongly considering OMEs for my Badlands now that I've upsized the tires. Couple questions:
For a non-Sasquatch 2.7 Badlands with the HD Modular Bumper, a roof rack, and Pakrax with Rotopax (that's also my daily driver), would you recommend Medium/Light or Medium/Medium?
I'm...
I've got the 450P for my Badlands and 33s, coupled with a MorrFlate 4-hose system. Works great.
Only two negatives are that it takes a bit longer to air up (not a bad exchange for a 100% duty up time) and that it takes up space (relative to an on-board solution).
I'd been toying with one of...
Had a blast! Wish we had been able to get up there for the first couple days, but we're definitely going to try and attend the whole thing next year. Wife is definitely sold on more Bronco trips, and she is much more comfortable driving it after taking about half of the 15-hour highway round...

I'd describe it as doable, but not recommended.
Depending on routes you take to get to/from the trail, you're looking at roughly 100 miles. I'd say we averaged under 10mph. You could go slightly faster, and avoid stopping for anything to get it done in about 10 hours. I almost wish we had...
Yes, we all had permits.
It's a national park, so no fires. And the no dogs bit has to do with protecting the cyanobacteria in the ecosystem. A bit much, but at least there's an actual reason.
And we actually did have a fire, just brought a portable propane fire pit.
We had some discussions...
I think @talbot had 2 or 3 gallons, and @Rick Astley might have had 10?
Weird thing is that it seemed like everyone, regardless of door count, used about half a tank over the course of the 2 days on White Rim. 2-doors used the first quarter of their tank faster, but it all evened out quickly.
Finally got some pics processed, and the first video.
First, I have to say this trip set the bar pretty high for my time with the Bronco. The trail was fun, the scenery was amazing, and the company made everything better!
Big thanks to everyone who was able to make it out. You all made the...
We had at least two on 33s and one on 31s. Cleared everything with no issues.
(I know I scraped once but only because I was going a bit too fast and didn't see the rock in the dip until the last second, but that's what skid plates are for.)
Didn't feel less capable than the Sasquatches at all...
