towing

I use a 2" drop with my 2021 badlands 4dr 4x4 to trailer a Seadoo that's 960 lbs dry weight (no trailer). The problem is, i'm unable to trailer without taking the spare tire off. Both 2" and 3 1/4" drops do not leave enough room between the coupler and the tire. The tire blocks the coupler...

Selling my used Draw Tite hitch receiver. Had it on for about a month and then ended up installing a bumper with an integrated receiver so I no longer need this one. Extends out a bit further to clear the spare which I thought was great on my Sasquatch. Asking $60 for it. Pickup only near...

Absolutely HATE to do it, but we need 7 seats... 2023 Bronco Wildtrak Lux Hardtop Leather - purchased February 12, 2023 - currently 1212 miles - aprox. $6000 in bolt-ons - never off-road - garage kept - clean and clear title in hand (no liens) - details below - Window sticker in pics - This is...

I ordered my bronco and now have a build date of 5/19, however I was encouraged to remove the tow package as it was a constraint. I remember reading a 4500 lb tow capacity with the 2.7L but the aftermarket rough country tow kit says 3500. Are there any other options including the one you can...

Here is what I know about hitches. Hoping that you may help me understand what I am missing and also answer my questions: 1. In the aftermarket, there is the long Draw-Tite hitch that extends under the tire or the short/flush Curt hitch. 2. BOTH can be installed without touching the bumper and...

Bought all these parts new for my 4dr Badlands. Sold car back to dealership so removed parts from car. Pictures below. Links to where items were purchased in description. I will mark items as SOLD in description, so if it is listed, it is available. I can ship at cost via FedEx Ground, or you...

This came up at work and since off roading uses the same shackles, thought I'd post it here. The Crosby Group has issued a STOP USE AND INSPECT for the 6.5t anchor shackles with the Product Identification Code 5YH, with immediate action required. In certain circumstances, the shackle bow may...

Does anyone know if aftermarket upgrades can increase the towing capacity from the current number to the +/- 4500 pounds of the raptor?

All, I dropped tow package, like many others have done, so now I'm stuck installing the trailer hitch and Curt wiring harness, dang it. I purposely ordered our '18 Jeep JL without a tow package - cause, y'know I'm so smart and I figured I'd save some money. Well what a pain in the ass that...

The 4 door badlands has steel front and rear bumpers with 4 tow hook locations. Anyone know where it states the capacity of these attachment points? Probably going to be using them to pull vehicles out of the snow this winter.

7/31/21. UPDATE Photos So Waverunner sucked up Rope, had to emergency extract away from the launch. Bronco went 4low and Sand Goat Mode in Brackish water for extraction Bronco Badlands, stock tires went where I would have never put our F150. We had a second Bronco at the ready, but so...

Obviously I'm not expecting to see giant RV trailers or big landscaping trailers. I know these are not designed as tow machines.. Just curious to see how the Bronco's road manners change with some added weight. Any ridiculous rear end sag or movement? Enough power with the 2.3L? I'll be...

I love everything about the Bronco except the tow rating. I have a small Aliner trailer that I was hoping to tow behind my bronco but that 3,500 lbs is really bumming me out. Can someone explain why the Ranger with the same engine, transmission, brakes and axles can tow 7,500 lbs? Is Ford...

I'm buying a new trailer and want to be able to pull it with my new Bronco. I'm planning on purchasing with the Sasquatch but the trailer company is asking me if the hitch is more than or less than 24" and I have no clue. Any engineers out there who have done the math with the dimensions we do...

Our photographer has just spotted a Bronco prototype fully revealing for the first time the 2021 Bronco's soft top. Yes the soft top looks to be in rough shape, but keep in mind that this is not the best presentation of the soft top as this prototype has likely lived a tough life already...

These numbers are very important to me. I am surprised Ford did not make them available at launch.
