Base Model Bronco Thread

[Bajabound]

I am so excited, I changed my order from a black diamond to:

2Dr
Antimatter Blue
2.7L w/ 10 spd. Auto
Steel Bumper
Aux switches
Roof Rails
Brush guard
Sound Deadening Headliner
Floor Liners
Keyless Entry

All of that for 36k!? a steal.

I am planning on giving her a 2.5 inch lift (which should be available because my july 17 reservation will be early 2022), a set of 15" american racing baja 172 machined rims, and BFG K02 35" tires. I am not too worried about gearing, at the end of the day I am not going to be racing or anything extreme. I have been in a similarly geared jeep with 35's (the engine was also much weaker) and I genuinely didn't notice a huge difference. Once I calibrate the speedometer it should be dandy!

That is literally the EXACT same build I have to a "T". I'm going to LineX the top white put 33's on it, plasti dip the steelies white (May switch to the Fifteen52 Analogs). Paint the grill white, with Red Lettering. Throw some round lights on the bumper and across the roof and call it a day.

I agree for the price it's a solid build.

That's going to look really sweet.

Are you going to lift at all to get 33s on it? I am shooting for 33s too and consuming everything possible that people have theorized on what tire sizes will fit. Seems like a safe bet that the 33s will fit no problem but am still worried

No lift. 33's will fit just fine without a lift. Lot's of the other trims have 33's without any lift. The Sasquatch with the 35's has less than 1" of lift.

I saw a 2 door carbonized gray in person and it was really nice!

Who is actually putting their money where their mouth is and getting a base model? Count me in! 2-door, base, 7 speed, and sasquatch of course. Going for cactus grey, I am in AZ after all! I will add aux switches if available. Nothing else I really need, I'll go aftermarket!

I’ve done base as well, 4D, 2.7 squatch. Seems with all the customization becoming available I made the right decision. Didn’t pay for bumpers or anything that I can end up doing aftermarket. Also did aux switches.

Very good call, basically the same as my build. I wish we could do mid package on base but none of those items are worth the $5k+ increase to get them.
