Anybody think storing the four doors will still work with the security box if there's no top?

I did some research and a 295 70 17 is actually 33.5 inches diameter.....vs 285 70 17 which is 32.7....Usually when people say 33..they mean the 285...A 315 70 17 is 34.4 for comparision. This tire should probably be called a "34"......Either way, it looks really good and the aggressive tread pattern helps. I could live with that tire on the 4 door or the 2 door and not need a "35"...

I think the 315's is considered a 35 "class" tire.. in the same way you should never actually measure your TV size, or how big that 2x4 piece of lumber you just bought is.

285/70 - 33"
285/75 - 34"
315/70 - 35"

It was like watching curling at the Winter Olympics.

I don't see a problem with watching it...

I will say, I've always been partial to the black hood and was wondering how it would look on the Bronco. I really like it.

Flat black hood on a CO.

Yeah, if you like getting put to sleep. I don’t think the guy could have been anymore boring and monotone. It was like watching curling at the Winter Olympics.

The best presenter is the guy from Nashville Bronco, the only guy on BN who's actually driven a Bronco (albeit a vintage one).

I keep seeing "pimp my Bronco". Except the caddy is a 2 door.

His demeanor didn't bother me at all. It's hard to strike the right tone with such a wide audience: too low-key and some people think you're boring; too high-energy and other people will say you sound like a salesperson.

His mic kept going out (diminished) when he turned his head at the beginning but it seems like they fixed it partway through.

That part bugged me, too. Reminded me of this scene from Singin' in the Rain.

This had NO Sasquatch package. They threw 33s on it with the aftermarket wheels.. They even stated non Sasquatch when they went over the interior there was no buttons for lockers just traction control.

You are correct, this was not Sas'd. The 'expert' on site said it was but it was not. Black, non res shocks, no 4A. It did not look like it had a lift, but I couldn't be sure.

I am digging the lock box in the rear and locking console. Wonder how much room you actually get in that console. Looks cramped. I'd like to see someone make a holster/grab bar. So you can have your pistola near by, but not in an uncomfortable position.

Tuffy makes these for jeeps, waiting to hear back if they will make them for the Bronco...far less expensive than the Ford Molle Table for the tailgate..

Seeing this build has me considering going back to OBX from WT.

Then I look at my OBX pricing from Sean, add in the cost of new wheels/tires to get the 33s and I'm back in the WT money neighborhood.

I really like the matte black hood though. That might be the first mod.

 

[Ta2punk]

Matte black hood is fucking mint. I just wish they would offer MGV in the WL.

EDIT: Welp, looks like I've decided on a BL trim.

 

[L8apex]

Matte black hood is fucking mint. I just wish they would offer MGV in other packages besides only BL, come on Ford.

Black diamond gets MGV.

 

[Ta2punk]

Black diamond gets MGV.

Good to know, wish it was offered in the WT though. I may have to build some different ones after work today, I want WT because I don't need Rock Crawl mode but I want MGV.

its just a button and Sport = Baja = Sport.

I guess 33s will fit on the OBX nicely! Thank you lord!

Was the OBX stock or SAS? I like the 33s maybe I don't need SAS
