Bronco Team 2 door.

[NORCALGXP]

They said they would try and see what they can do. Honestly at this point I was not going to let something like that keep me from my Bronc I waited so long for. It was raining today and you could only see the darker line. I just won't wash it as much and then no one will notice.

Took the wife for a spin and gave Sport Mode a try. This thing scoots. Made me forget all about the top.

Congratulation, a long wait well worth it. Way to go two door score.

Thanks NorCal !!!!! It has been quite the adventure. Now this is what I see when I look out the front door.

Time for some miles and seat time to get her broke in.

They get your top figured out?

Only the dark line, the one that was there after the trip is noticeable but those rub scratches are not as bad.

As long as that’s not an actual crack, it’s not bad at all

It is not a crack. It does look like one. When I first saw it off the truck I just thought it was a dirt run from the trip. Took a closer look to make sure it was not a crack, but did not try to rub, thought the detail guy would just wash off. Turns out it wasn't a dirt run and the detail guy rubbed the living 'F" out of it trying to get rid of it. That made all kind of scratches in the top. Made it look 1000 times worse. I would venture to say, in the right light, at the right angle you will be able to see the scratches, but for the most part the only thing that stands out is the dark mar line in the top.

Going out to put my steps on.......... pics later.

I call them steps because they are not connected to the frame to be true sliders. Looks like it would not take much work to make them so they are though. Got them more to keep the "road debris" at bay and so the family has a step to get in.

Took it for a quick spin down by the river to the boat launch as the sun when down. On the way there are some railroad tracks I naturally slowed down for and then realized what I was in and got back in it. It takes railroad tracks very well, like they are not there. Oh, this thing is going to be some fun. !!!!!!

Checking in for team two door. My wife wanted a brightly colored 2 door manual. We just happened to find a lightly used one (400ish miles) at a dealer on the other side of the US. Bought it over the phone and had it shipped. It arrived this week and she’s absolutely giddy with happiness so far. Have a few mods on the way: half roof rack, compressor, and sliders. Other mods await the results of our first real trip next month to the Mojave Road.

I'm curious if you found a half roof rack anywhere or if you custom made one

Would you mind sharing a link for your steps? My 2-door should be shipping soon and I like those steps better than any I’ve seen so far.

I do not mind at all. The look very similar to the Havoc ones, but they where not available at the time and I came across these.........

I will add one note if you get them......... when the instructions show you the passengers side bar with the arrow front it is wrong. I started to do it and the bar was about and inch away from the tire in the front and the rear didn't made it past the door. So I grabbed the Drivers side one and it matched much better and the step pad was in the right spot. Kinda like the tie rods, more of a "match 'em up and see what works best" approach.

Thanks, Bud! I can’t wait to get mine. I think you were 1 build week ahead of me. Mine was built 3/15 but seems to be just sitting at MAP.

Yes I was Mar 6th build week. Was built on the 7th. First ship date was by April 7th. Then updated to Mar 16th. When that date came and went with no update, after a few days, I stopped by the dealer to see if they had an update. Your moving around they said, you are up to Mar 24th to the 30th just today so I would say any day now. Well I only had the 16th I replied. The next day it showed up at 4:30 on a hot shot truck.

Just keep checking. I used the status update on my Ford account. Your dealer gets updates as well you just need the right person to check. I still can't wipe the smile off my face. One badass ride.

So cool! I’m stoked for you! I know you waited a lot longer than me. I reserved July 2021 so still a long time though. It won’t seem real until it’s in my garage. I am fortunate to have a dealer who is transparent and good at communicating, but I know his updates are only as good as what Ford is providing. My tracker has been stuck “in production” since 3/6 but my dealer did send me a screen-shot showing produced on 3/15. Maybe it's already on a train and they just haven't updated...

It‘s from JCR: https://www.jcroffroad.com/product/BR6RK-S.html

It finally arrives tomorrow (fun lead times over there!) and I hope to install it this weekend.

Thanks for the link. Hope to see some pics when you're done. I might get the same

I think these steps are virtually all the same.
