Why do companies release pictures of crap Photoshop? I'd be ashamed to have my company name associated with that.
on a related note, why would a company do tank tracks on a car for reveal at a show designed to gain customers for your aftermarket? never understood the "radical, futuristic" wastes of time. spend so much R and D developing a car for the masses, and tout it as being easliy customizable, then feature shit that virtually no one wants and will never need, like tank tracks. aftermarket show becomes sci-fi convention.
I hope ADV blows the top off the show - pun intended

This is what Ford needs to look at in bringing back the half cab Bronco! Not that 4 door version that they modeled after the Gladiator.

I can appreciate your love for the half-cab, I think it's a great conversion mod for the 2drs, but I got a 4dr and I love it. With a family, it was essential for me. I am so stoked of my Bronco. Got big plans for it ;).

I too am ordering a 4 door for the same reason as you because I have two small kids. Plus the 76 I have for my off-roading and rockcrawling needs.
My comment was not hating on the 4 door, but on the attempt Ford wanted to do with the Bronco truck instead of going for the true half cab look.

Tell me more about the Methods….

Can I switched to them on my BL Sas?

This is what jumped out at me the most:

Ford Performance Parts also developed several new Bronco chassis components for the Bronco two- and four-door SUVs, including new severe-duty steering rack and tie rod ends to further improve steering system durability under high loads.

Especially after that one post where the guy snapped his tie rods and wrecked the steering rack. Looks like Ford maybe has identified this as a weak spot? I'm betting a more robust version comes out in factory units in the future.
Yep, that's actually one thing I'm interested to see. The two failures I've seen posted involved 37" tires but that seems to say the safety margin is narrow for sasquatch rigs wheeled hard.

If these are the best concepts than Ford needs to find some new aftermarket designers with fresh ideas especially on paint colors.

And here’s a thought, how about some front bumpers without a winch mount. Not everybody wants or even needs a winch.

I think this is the hidden hint that “we have a problem Houston”. Two guys with early 4D’s have modified them to fit 37’s and broken tie rods & steering racks. One of them told me on IG today that he has broken not one but two steering racks already. That’s not good. Equally concerning is that this quiet announcement signals that Ford is well aware and unwilling to fix it….but they will sell us the parts.

It's great that you have the option now. If you don't like Ford's DIS (Discontinuous Independent Steering) system you can always pay for the upgrade to a boring, old, regular steering system. :sneaky:
