Looking at the pictures, there is evidence of tapping the hole in shavings just underneath each mounting point. It would be a M10 1.5 pitch tap, and you'd need a right angle attachment, unless you want to remove the top to tap the hole (assuming the jack fits with the hardtop installed).

I've seen another thread that mentioned this particular product, but I purchased the Yakima Awning, marketed by Ford. It fits the cross bars on the factory rack with no issues at all. It is a very stout connection. https://accessories.ford.com/yakima-awning-1
The few times I've used it, it was...
I've completed my install with a relocated control module, similar to what is explained in this thread.
I found that even with the relocated control unit and plastic intercooler shroud removed (I had it on my Badlands), when you have the remote control cord plugged in, it would rub against the...
With the relocated control head unit, and the plastic shroud removed, there is almost no room to plug the cord for the remote in into the control head unit.
I wound up buying an extension cable and used a Dremel to cut the housing off of the cord housing, to make it the equivalent of a right...
First, thanks again for the great pictures. I did this install this weekend. I got stuck after mounting the control in the exact location you've done it. How did you handle plugging in the wired control, as the socket faces the intercooler fairly close and of you plug in the cable, the cord is...
I used the Brakemaster setup. It definitely works.
Just sold my bus, so looking at converting to overlanding now.
Feel sad, because we had flat towing completely down.
Me too. I have about 6000 flat tow miles on mine, using the factory modular bumper recovery points.
I also believe it is some overzealous Ford attorney backtracking to reduce any potential future liability/litigation.
Lots of people have. I have a Roadmaster setup myself. Just look through that thread, posted above, and you'll get everything you need. For the first dozen of us, it was tweaking the groundwork others started to work for us, but most combinations have been documented by now, in regards to the...
I just got my Bronco back from service. I had asked to make sure I had the newest ABS update, which they were able to apply, and I had already gotten the latest OTA a few weeks ago.
To note, I did flat tow about 8 hours total last week, after having gotten the OTA update (that gives the error...
I can verify that I got the OTA update that gives you the brake warning when entering flat tow mode, and successfully towed about 6 hours with zero issues, WITHOUT pulling any fuses.
To note, I did not yet get the dealer installed ABS update, so it might be the exact same update as the OTA...
Funny, I have wireless lighting and roadmaster air brakes on my 2.7 and for whatever reason, I've been using my Jackery and a trickle charger while towing it.
Now that I think about it, I doubt the brake assist drains much, and neutral tow mode is not like accessory mode is on.
I have not...
Went to schedule the SSM 51415 Flat Tow Fix today. All the dealers near me have 1-3 month wait for service. When asked, they said it is that way for if you car doesn't function as well. Gotta love Ford.
