Just what came stock on my BD.

I def put a couple scrapes on, I guess the control arms.

But nothing serious
I met up with Moreno & Kandi today and we did the trails around Mott Lake. He was great at introducing the area to me and aiding us on our maiden voyage! lol. We didnt get much for pictures, the flies were kind of a pain due to a controlled burn right in the area (literally on one side of the trail for a portion of it) but here is a pic from afterwards.

The Rokblokz kept most of the mud off the side of my car which was nice.

haha yeah thats why i bought the LCA skid. The JCR has nice coverage on almost the entire skid but I liked how the DV8 one conceals the 18MM factory bolt head. I was going to install it tomorrow but I just need to run out and get a 18MM Deep Socket. I can make a shallow socket work but I dont want to risk stripping it. Just retorqueing that bolt to 93 lbs while under the car on a creeper should be fun lol.

Most of my damage so far has been on the Sas trim rings for the wheels.

I just bought this “pass through” socket set to keep in my bronco.

Eliminates the necessity of deep sockets and it comes with an 18mm socket too.

i should probably get a set eventually.

Hey Alvin, i am out that way. where are guys going to do trails in Colorado? you will be somewhere in my back yard
We will be near Durango. One of the guys moved there and is going to show us the “good stuff”. I think we will also be doing some light hiking too.

How are those interior lights working out, did you stick with the medal brackets?

Sounds like a great plan for sure. I am over in the Colorado springs area, retiring in a month. Hope to get out that way for some off roading in the near future! Maybe can catch up with you on your next trip out.

Solid. The metal brackets are the way to go. They haven’t moved a millimeter.

Where are you at with yours?

Took me a while to figure out and I’m sure this has been posted about before, but sometimes when getting in/out my knee hits the light knob and turns it to always on 😂.

Hey @Cat is the person who made your new wildcat badge still making them for other trims? that so rocks.
No...he only made two WildTrak Sas ...one for himself and me. He did an outstanding job.
