Updates - NW Bronco

Elk Lake Campground just outside Detroit, OR. There's a rough road leading up to this hidden gem, but once you get up there......WOW! Only a few camp sites and very few people. One of my new favorite destinations.

That looks great. Will have to add it to my list.

Which trash bag are you using there? Any movement trouble at highway speeds?

It's got to be one of the best camp spots in Oregon. The drive up is fun too. No RV's up there, only off road vehicles.

The bag is a Trasharoo. They are great for garbage or extra storage. I slip a bucket with a garbage bag in it. The bucket doubles as a toilet if you carry crapper bags. Just get a plastic clip on toilet seat for the bucket. I'll do a video on it soon. Here's the link:

No movement. It's a great product that adds storage to the bronco. Some folks even carry firewood in there!

Here's the results on the fender flare swap and mud flaps. Everything works well!

Added the to ZROADZ roof lights!

Added the ZROADZ 3" Pod lights on the roof rack. Looks great!

Added the Black Diamond wheels to my Badlands Sasquatch. Really tucks in the tires nicely and no rubbing on the road at full lock. Schwabs said everything on the underside looks great.

Pressure sensors were swapped and are working. The center caps are on order and should be here in about a week. Drives like normal. Original lug nuts worked just fine. You do need to take the rubber bumper stops off the tailgate. The spare tire sits closer to the gate.

The rear looks like it's sagging, but all the old wheels are in the back

NEXT: Looking to get my hands on a Black Diamond grill. Anyone on Oregon want to swap?

Added the RTR Tailgate Reinforcement and Jerry Can Mount. The Tailgate Strut Limiter as well.

that looks pretty nice. I'll have to look into it. but why does the camera in the center of the spare stick out so far?

I'm going to guess that they had the Sasquatch package (based on the bumper extensions). They have since put on a set of BD steelies. The differing offsets combined with the removal of the spacer on the carrier causes the camera to stick out further.

Correct. It's adjustable for different offsets. Plus, provides better camera clearance for larger tires. The entire rack is adjustable.

Yes again, it's a Sasquatch. I need to change out those bumper caps. Next is a Black Diamond grill.

Did you just use the tires that were on the original wheels or just replace them. if so what size of tire did you use?

 

[B Miller]

Those are the regular Sasquatch tires. They look very different on 17x7.5 wheels.

that makes sense. thanks!

Nice to know the Sasquatch tires will fit the steelies. I hated giving them up on my BD to add Sasquatch. It looks like the standard flares are a must though, or the tires would be inset. Did it add height to the tires? They’re notorious for rock throwing - is that less of an issue now? Any concerns off-roading and airing down?
