Bad Blue 2-Door Bronco Badlands Build Journal

[@BadBlueBronco]

I’ve had winches
Pto, hydraulic and electric
I’m going rough country

granted I don’t rock crawl a lot but I’ve winched a lot

do you think the RC is too low? I feel like it is limited on angle. not sure if im over thinking it, but I prefer that look over everything else out on the market

It’s there if you need it, and not in the way

it’s always going to have pro and cons
The only thing I may do is look at making a mount myself, in that spot…. But probably not. I’ll probably end up buying it

So. . . How do I find me a set of those wheels??!! I can't seem to find them on 4wheel parts .com

I think your ride looks killer!

Is there an extension for the Yakima rack you have that will cover the entire roof instead of half like you have? Thanks.

Buy the matte black ones and powder coat them

Nice. Like the wheels and happy to see another Yakima rack out in the wild.

I bought the K style which is their smallest model. You can get a larger one but I didn’t want to block the sky view when removing the 2 roof panels.

Big fan, looks awesome!

The only ones I can find in a 17 with our 6X5.5? pattern is this one.

edit: dug a little deeper, found them.

Yes but tastefully. Its getting pinstriped tomorrow then to the shop for full PPF stealth matte. I may go with painted fenders in the future but I don't mind the plastic ones. I am debating wrapping the roof but with all the issues popping up still with MIC, I am apprehensive on doing anything to the top and then not get a 3.0. I have white recovery hooks that match the wheels too.

Beautiful Build. I was planning on White Roof, White Wheels
( Black Rhino "Solid" OR 1552 Analogs) on my Eruption Green BadSquatch but your Procomps look GREAT!! The White Recovery Hooks look killer too! Congratulations on a Beautiful BRONCO!

Thanks, I wanted black rhinos but I heard about some quality issues and went with the pro comps. I will likely get a set of machines wheels in a few years.

Outstanding build! Thanks for posting wheel/tire information. Going with the Pro Comps in natural aluminum For my EG Base Squatch. I’ve had good service out of TA’s on previous trucks. I’m not liking the all white grilles out there; wonder if you would be doing a VB satin/white mix on the grille?

 

[ARETE]

I'll definitely check into the QC issue on Black Rhino. Thank you for the tip off. The 1552 Analogs look pretty sweet as well, but your procomps look fantastic. I'm following your build post now, really looking forward to watching the progress!! Stay Safe and Enjoy
