Meet MOON

[Coach4088]

Love what you got going on there. I would like to do some of the same. Can you possibly post the links of where I too can order these things? Is the Black Bronco decal still available? Thx!

I wanted to start a thread for my Bronco aka “MOON” so I can share with friends and help others in the Bronco 6G community.

I’m a day one reservation holder. Built on March 11th. I finally got my 2022 4 door Cactus Grey Badlands with Sasquatch and luxury package on March 30th.

It’s been a fun week. I have already done several projects with the help of a good friend.

Like many of you the first thing I did was to peel the sticker badges off. I relocated them to the tailgate and behind the gas door. I also removed the chrome Bronco and swapped it for a black one.

Redline tuning hood struts and a basic LED light bar under the hood that comes on automatically. I highly recommend both of these upgrades as they are inexpensive, easy to do and super functional.

Baja Designs Squadron Sport ditch lights. I am in love with those things!

JCR molle table on the tailgate. It went together fine until the last step of inserting the top of the table. That took a little extra work to make it fit. But it’s in there solid and no rattles at all.

A custom rear lighting project I had planned out. On the glass hatch I have 2 Baja Designs rock lights. One red, one white. Then on the inside I have a red led light strip for cargo lighting or when camping in the Bronco. Each of those lights are wired into their own switch on a panel I added that also has 2 USB ports. They are also wired into quick connect cables so when I remove the rear section of the roof I can simply unplug everything.

Mounted fire extinguisher. I also added a Baofeng base charging unit there and can plug in by USB when needed to charge radios.

Not too bad for the first week. I will update this thread over time as I do other projects.

If this can survive Florida I don’t think I need to worry about Kansas! Thanks!

When it comes to heat extremes Florida is closer to Alaska than to Kansas.

It's just a small vehicle / boat fire extinguisher I've had for several years in my Jeep Grand Cherokee. It came with that mounting bracket. I had to drill out the holes in it a little bit to make the bolts fit through the bracket into the roll bars. But the existing holes lined up perfectly. I used the following bolts and it fit perfect.

More ideas to steal keep them coming, Great work!

You know...now that I think of it...

Anyways I'm not going to worry too much about exploding.

Looks great. I ended up going with a Bartact holder.

Looks like you built out a platform deck in the rear.

That's actually a Goose Gear rear seat delete kit with a cargo liner mat from Amazon I trimmed to fit.

Did a little charging station project in the rear. My small battery pack fits perfect there. I'm going to hard wire it into power and free up the 12v plug. Then just turn on the battery pack when I need juice. I have 2 4 foot braided cables running behind the panels out to my fold down table. So can charge up to 6 different devices at once (USB-C, Micro-USB, Lightening). Going to get some adhesive clips to mount to the door panel and clip the cables into when not in use.

I also tested out my fan with a strip of velcro (I love having the roof like that). I could get a little velcro strap and tuck in the excess wire. But I figure when sleeping in it I can get a little air flow.

Yup all the lights are Baja Designs and got them from 4x4TruckLEDs.com.

Thanks for sharing! Keep it coming!
I had to look up the info on the panel you installed. I like that added function. Intend to watch the video you shared later.
Someone asked for a link. Looks like Swamp got some supplies from here: https://www.nilight.com/collections/2-and-3-gang-switch-panel

I've got Element fire extinguishers in all my fleet and personal vehicles. 1/8 the size, more output, and won't damage wire sheathing.

Plus, they don't expire like a regular pressurized tank.

Worth a look, IMO.
