Was it worth it?
First off we want to thank the Gold Country Bronco Group for inviting us out to their meet up. We highly recommend new Bronco owners living in Northern California to join this group!
Bronco Academy: An event to learn about your rig with minimal risk of damage. A verity of obstacles, spotters, and like minded Bronco owners all meeting up to enjoy the California outdoors. Unfortunately, the weather had different plans … what looked like a safe place to wheel turned into a big MUD PIT –– Heavy rain, slippery conditions, puddles, cloudy and among all this, the most adventurous group of Bronco owners. Everybody who attended the event got home safely and are probably power washing their Bronco more than once.
Be sure to visit the thread by Mark Brooks to see photos/videos of all the fun we had!
Of course one of our own had too much fun… Mitch Creel.
After the event he had his own adventure…
On the way home from the event his Bronco dashboard turned into a Christmas Tree all lit up.
The explanation:
We'll get it sorted out soon. Early thoughts: Alternator might've gone bad as seen in another Bronco video.
Note: Next time you send it and see mud or water getting on the hood of your rig then you're probably going too fast. If you have any questions please leave them down below we'll be updating the story/repair on this thread. If you had any crazy water/mud stories with your rig then let us know how that went!
UPDATE:
Mitch had to overcome a handful of hangups while trying to fix his 2.7L Ford Bronco Alternator.
Avoid these snags:
