Very easy install. If you have a 2021 model, make sure you have the necessary threaded bolt holes in the roll bars. Our 2021 was made late in the run and had them.

Visla? Sitting still for pics ? I jest.

The install looks good but other than if you plan on rolling your Bronco (and from what i have seen so far standard roll cage should be suffulicient) it's purposes are for speaker and light mounting?

It’s not a roll bar. It’s a stiffener to reduce body flex in more extreme off roading. That’s all.

Nice installed. I would like to do this, but my 21 does not have those holes, even though it as built in May. Not sure if its a soft top thing as well...

I am hoping that my Armadillo top stiffens things up, and once I have that installed, I'll take a look at a cross brace if needed.

I wasn’t hopeful that the First Editions would have the threaded holes, but are these the ones needed for the brace?

@Bird Dog Off Road totally unrelated to your post. Have a box like you have. May I inow how you “sealed” the sides so stuff don’t fall into that gap?

Yep. I think 2021s built after mid summer have them regardless of trim. You and I got lucky.

Funny you should ask. There's a video for that as well.

Looks good... I wouldn't mind a little more rigidity in the chassis.

Wondering if it will still fit with aftermarket (like Mabett) speaker pods?? Anyone have an idea on this?

Nope, German Shorthaired Pointer, so very similar, lol.

It provides rigidity. I can definitely tell a difference with this and the cross bar I also added recently.
Top doesn't squeak at all anymore and the body definitely is stiffer. They don't put them in the Raptors for just looks, lol.
