Excellent!
Will you be adding the Yakima LockNLoad platform size K to the factory roof rack?

Haven’t been able to get my hands on a roofrack yet to get correct measurements but yes. I want the platform that’s small enough it doesn’t cover the front passenger compartment so I can still take my front panels off and see sky.

Those wheels are gonna look KILLER with the LB!

Something like this? (Size K)

Yup that’s it’s! I’m hoping Ford hurry’s up and release the roof rack as an accessory because it’s currently over 1800 bucks ordered individually from the parts department.

I went back and forth with them and hope I made the right decision

I bought my rack from Amazon (see link). At the time it was $699.00. It was an easy assembly and less expense then buying it via Ford. I also bought each of the attachments from Amazon. The entire rack, attachments, gear, and gasoline weight in at 109lbs. Just under the recommended limit of 110lbs.

I’m rooting for you to get your Bronco soon! Can’t wait to see pics and learn more about the goose setup on a two door. I’m currently torn between building it or buying this kit.

Forget Ford's roof rack, check out ARB's Base Rack (That is what I am going to get for my FE).

WOOHOOOO! Getting so much closer to build time!

 

[ModifyMike]

Look what was delivered yesterday! Currently waiting on the Bits to show up from RPG so we can install them then I’ll take delivery!

How would you attach this without the factory rack?
