I opted to take the paved highways up through Fairbanks a few years back heading from Healy to Copper Center, in a rental car. But one of my bucket list items is to get a Denali Road lottery pass and bring my Bronco all the way from Michigan to Wonder Lake
On newer vehicles, when it is difficult to get parts, time to repair also factors in when insurance is making their write offs. If a driver has a policy where the insurance company has to pay for a rental car while their vehicle gets repaired, a X month rental is big bucks so they'll just write...
Yes, I put the little clips right on the metal fender, underneath the liner. Big mounting bracket went outside the liner.
I don't think I will do the rears, as A) I didn't really want/need the rears anyways and B) they look more complicated to install lol
I put the fronts on my FE last night. Pretty straight forward install. I wasn't able to get the bracket on in between the fender liner and the fender like it showed in the video, so I ended up just putting the bracket on the outside of the liner and screwing it in that way.
Awesome build. The wheels/tires make such a huge difference. I haven't seen yours around town yet, but I live on 112th so I'm sure I will at some point. Who did you have do the tint?
How do the blue grab handles and vents look/match with the exterior paint? I am wanting to get the Wildtrack blue handles for my FE, as the blue from pictures looks better than the Black Diamond interior blue, but still not sure how well it matches
Used a T15 (not included with the tools that came with the Bronco) to swap it out. Both badges feel look and feel exactly the same. I believe Ford absolutely intended on us installing them and not just keeping it on a shelf.
