Did you install the side steps yourself? If so, do they come with everything needed to install?

I actually lost the instructions, so they were a pain to install.

But as long as you have the instructions, they should be easy. They came with all the hardware needed, except the tools. You’ll just need an assistant to hold them in place for a minute, because they are HEAVY.

You’d never catch me driving a Sport! I spent the last year of my life explaining the difference to people.

It finally ended now that my real Bronco is here. No need to bring back my PTSD!

I would drive one if Ford gave me one. Otherwise it’s too low.

I like it too. Looks like it will work on your Big Bend but not the Black Diamond, Badlands , FE or any with the Heavy-duty modular bumper added.


Notes - Important

• Requires minor cutting/drilling.
• Does NOT fit models equipped with a factory tow hooks in the bumper.
• ONLY fits models with tow rings under the factory front bumper.
• LEDs are for off-road use ONLY.
• May interfere with parking sensors, proximity sensors and external cruise control sensors.

I let Rough Country know about it not fitting BD with Modular. I bought the first day they released and thought I might be able to make it work, but it would not. I’m glad they updated the description. They told me they only got their hands on the Bronco pictured on their site to test fit. I did get is mounted though. It was just not going to work out.

I wonder if they’ll ever release that version. It doesn’t look too bad on the modular bumper!

Not as much as you’d think!

• Nudge Bar by Rough Country -$303
• 50” Light Bar by Rough Country -$351
• Side Steps by 4 Wheel Parts -$981
• Ditch Lights by Diode Dynamics -$320
• Hood Protector by Lund Accessories -$100
• Bronco Emblem by Bad Bronco -$72

Total: $2300​

There are some other mods like my neoprene seat covers that aren’t pictured, and those alone were another $560. But I’ll add more info later about my interior mods, once I have better pictures.

Thanks for the list and prices. I have a white two-door Base unit (reservation only right now), and don't plan on making a lot of mods, but the light bar, ditch lights, and nudge bar will now go on that short list.

Please be patient with me as I update this build journal over the next couple of weeks. I’ve been making tons of modifications, but haven’t had time to take any good pictures. I’ve been so impressed with how easy the Bronco has been to modify. Much easier than any vehicle I have ever owned.
