Subwoofer Rattle? I think I gotter licked.

[Theherofails]

Well bois, I think I sent her a little too fu.. wait. Wrong post.

Oh, tailgate slash subwoofer rattle? Problem solved in 30 seconds or less, or you get your money back.

First, go open the tailgate and look above the subwoofer. There's a little panel like this:

Rip that mother off real gingerly like and take a gander. You'll see that the side of the trim is rubbing that black doohickey.

You can even see the little marks where it's been rubbing.

Ok, here is where it gets tricky.. aquire yourself one premium Costco brand blue shop towel, fold that guy in half a time or three and jam it in there between the trim and that black thingermaboob.

Reattach trim and Bobs your aunty.


This got rid of 98% of that horrid rattle. I don't have a patreon, but sub to my only fans for some hot Bronco on Bronco action.

This is GUARANTEED to fix your problem.


(This is not a guarantee).

This is obviously a temporary solution, I'm looking for some dynamat. In my case, that stupid 12v outlet cover is rattling a bit as well.. but this is a HUGE improvement already.

UPDATE: My newest mod. Keeps my rattle stopper close by for future issues.

Nice!

I'm just sitting here jamming to tunes trying to get it to rattle. So far, it's perfect.

This is what I’m here for. By the time I get my Bronco, all of y’all will have tweaked The Bronco to perfection.

great to hear, thanks for sharing that
mines inbound and this will be one of the first tweaks

Maybe the tire over pressure triggered the rattle and that rattle is what caused the edge of the top to start delaminating.

I'm gonna change the name of my Bronco to 'Calamity' after this comment..

Tried this fix…got me 50% of the way. Still a very bad rattle/shake when volume is turned up past 15. Only at certain higher frequencies, but very bad rattle ruins most songs.

Check your DC outlet cover. Mine was rattling pretty good as well. Ive had that entire panel off and its already got a foam backing all around the subwoofer. Your rattle is likely in that same trim area.

I noticed this on the LUX loaner we had for a bit. What a drag. Figured it was something as silly as this.

Sorry, but can you dumb it down a little for us simpletons! lol

Man, sounds like you're becoming a Bronco mechanic.

I'll def look into this, haven't had the time yet to sit in back and see where the rattle occasionally comes from, I only get it with very deep bass sounds (pretty much expected, but would be nice to eliminate nonetheless).

Check that 12v outlet cover as well. Between that and the fix mentioned above, I'm rattle free.

OP read like an AVE video... Love it.
