My order of Bronco accessories came in today so I thought I'd share photos of the accessories. Below are photos of the tailgate table (Part No. VM2DZ-78407A99-A). Since I haven't seen this information shared anywhere I thought I'd put it out there that the weight limit on the tailgate table is 25 lbs according to the sticker on the tailgate.

This will be one of the first accessories I buy. I'm not buying until I get a build date though.

I completely understand. That said my build date was moved from July to August, so I'm not sure how helpful it is to have a build date :cautious:

Someone else ordered one these before getting their Bronco. They posted details here: https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/just-got-my-ford-folding-tailgate-table.17748/

I ordered this with my Bronco and look forward to it. I'm hopeful 25lbs is a conservative number but I still don't plan to put anything too heavy on it.
Ah, I didn't see that thread. I think the 25 lbs weight limit is because of the cables they use for when the table is lowered. They feel plastic to me. I bet if they are replaced with stronger gauge wire it could hold much more. The table itself is heavy duty steel.

Plastic, huh? You may not want to put too much extra weight on the swinging tailgate anyway, but I wouldn't mind it being a little stronger. It's probably not too hard to replace those cables with something more durable and stronger than plastic. I'll probably look to do something like that.

I had the same experience with my Ford dealership. The parts department guy didn't even know there was a Ford Bronco, he kept thinking it was the Bronco Sport.

Anyways, I ordered from Levittownfordparts.com

Alcohol weighs 6.6 lbs per gallon so the weight limit on the table works for my tailgating.

Can I order from them even though I am in CA?

I don't think tailgate tables are a restricted item in CA, the box didn't come with any forbidden fruit fruits like pineapples. I live in Virginia and they shipped to me (they're based in New York) so I would imagine they'd ship to California.

this will be a hit for sure. I definitely plan to order this. its just smart.

I wonder if it conflicts with the pull out draw. though Im not sure if Im going to do the draw or not.
I'm pretty sure that little sliding change/pen drawer that the bronco comes with will have to be left out, but not 100% sure. That's something I think I'll have to wait for my bronco delivery to find out.

I thought that too, but @Gamecock pointed out a plausible, negative alternative on that thread.

Thanks OP. Was going to order this, but not at 25lb limit. Lame. I wonder if the limiting factor is the cables, as opposed to the bolts that secure it to the tailgate.
@Gamecock: Since it's a Ford product, my bet is the limit they are looking at is the limit for the entire door with a Sasquatch wheel/tire hanging on the outside of it....and adding 25lbs more to the opposite side. I'm sure that shelf would hold more, but the door hinges might not without sagging.


Hope it's the cables!
