How’s the soft top holding up?

As someone who has a stock OBX on the way, I’d just be curious to hear what you think in general of its overall off-road chops. Especially the 4.27 with rear locker. It certainly is no SAS or Badlands, but the way some on here talk, the stock OBX is for pavement only and useless off road.

We’ll i can tell you it’s definitely not a pavement princess. I’ve purposely pushed it past it’s limits to ensure it’ll most suit anyone looking to have fun and get to places most can’t. I’ll go into detail thanks for the topic!

What tires you're running and the size please. The setup looks great!
Leveling kit? Lift?

EPIC adventure! Thanks for sharing, looking forward to hearing all of the feedback on the questions so far.

This stock Outerbanks that I’ve been using just rolled over 20,000 miles on my way home to Texas from Colorado. I want to do a full 20k review but also answer any questions that you guys have? So fire away I’ll answer them in a video and plug who asked them. For reference this stock OBX has been to Whistler BC, California, Utah, South Padre Island Texas, and ran some of the most iconic things in the nation like Top of the world, Hells Revenge, Black Bear Pass, and more. It’s also towed a 3000 lb trailer for about 2000 miles and will be towing it again 2400 to King of the Hammers in Johnson Valley California.

Skate/Blade runner for icy conditions?

Where are the largest points of wear and tear inside and out? Is soft top difficult to wash? Did the paint on sides get stone chips from tires kicking up rocks? Would you recommend sidesteps to prevent this? Do you recommend covering any part of the body (if so where?) or gloss black grill with protective film?

Have you been to the Outer Banks yet in your Outer Banks? If not, when do you plan to go?

Part of the review the plastics underneath don’t like to be hit

Thanks for putting "if you ain't squatch you ain't squat" belief to bed, forever.

Yea shame of those people! Not everyone will be in Moab everyday… for most adventurers non Sasquatch bronco will do A LOT!!!

What size engine? Not sure if that got answered. Congratulations to be doing so well with travel and thoroughly enjoying your Bronco.

How did the original stock tires do before you changed them out for the more off-road ones? Did your ride get rougher? Appreciate you taking the stock OBX to so many cool places and showing us what it is capable of doing.

Thanks for the question! I’ll cover tires and how they both did in the video! And thanks for following along

That’s how it made it to 20k miles rather than grenading at 3k
