First Edition
I have a 1973 Bronco and i've built a couple other Broncos over the years. I started saving about 3 years ago when I saw Rampage and the Rock was driving that concept Bronco.

We had the entire family trying to reserve on day one and some how after website crashing multiple times, I ended up with 1 First Edition and 1 Wildtrack all the way at the "Reserve" screen. I decided what the hell and went with the first edition.

Full list of current mods:
  • 37x12.50r17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers
  • 17x9 -12mm offset Dirty Life Mesa Beadlock wheels
  • Maxlider front bumper with 10k Warn winch
  • DV8 Offroad FS-15 rear bumper
  • King Coilovers
  • Camburg Upper control arms
  • JCR tailgate table
  • Baja Designs Squadron Ditch lights
  • JTops mesh top
  • DV8 rear shock skid plates
  • RCI rear diff armor
  • RCI front lower control arm armor
  • JKS Big tire kit
  • Goatfab Rocksliders
  • Bunch of Stickerfab add ons
Here it is on Day one when I picked it up

I didn't want to be "That Guy" running around with the stock spare and 37"s so I waited to mount them up until I got my spare relocator, tailgate reinforcement plate and third brake light relocation bracket. Finally got them all mounted up today.

Going to have to cut down the factory rock rail as it rubs on the rail when backing up/turning. And i'm sure it's going to rub off road.

Eventually when the world goes back to normal, I will throw some Fox coilovers on it to bring it up another inch maybe inch and half. But I'm happy with the low and wide stance.

I used the Rough Country kit. It fit fine, the instructions sucked but it's pretty self explanatory.

Looks great !!!! Can't wait to do it my 2DR when Ford builds it. ;) I am leaning towards fenders first before the coilovers. But definitely 37's from the git go. 😁
