head rests in my Big Bend

[roadwarrior]

I have owned my Big Bend ( w/ Sasquach ) since October 2022. Don't ask me why it took so long, but over the weekend I finally realized that the headrests are doing a number on my neck because they are pitched too far forward. It's really an unnatural position. The only adjustmet is up and down (cloth seats). Initially I removed the headrest completely. But to all Bronco owners suffering from this design flaw the solution is to remove the headrest, flip it around and reinstall . The angle will be much more manageable. Hope this helps owners out there who are not happy with their headrests,

I really want to know if the Bronco SPORT headreasts would fit in the fullsize bronco

There was a thread somewhere with instructions on running them over with your Bronco to bend them back a bit

I turned mine around.

The headrest is way to far forward. It's not supposed to touch your head in normal driving. It's a suplemental restraint and should be about 3-fingers width back from your head.

I'm guessing to fix the angle you would need a fairly serious hydraulic pipe bender.

I guess it depends on your driving posture bc I've never noticed this being an issue
