Hi everyone! After literally a year of deliberation, I finally got a rack for Uncle Bronco. I went back and forth for a while but settled on the ZROADZ rack because I liked the tubular look to it (a little more retro and less beefy than a lot of the others). On a whim, searched the model number on Amazon and ended up getting it for about $1200 (about $400 cheaper than the manufacturer's site). I was a little nervous because the listing called out 2021 model year Bronco, but I took a chance and it paid off.
Assembly
I assembled it by myself and it was doable but would have been much easier with a helper. Took about 90 minutes. The instructions that came with it were absolutely abysmal (small pictures with not great detail) and none of the parts were marked. A few stickers labeled A, B, C, etc would have made things much easier.
Installation
The install wasn't bad (my wife and I got it on the truck with limited difficulty). This is another instance where an extra set of hands would have made a difference. Once it was on the roof, it pretty much went right on.
Look
I love it! See pics!
Wind Noise
One thing I was worried about was wind noise and I couldn't find any info online about it. I don't have the deflector on mine and I think the wind noise is minimal at about 55-60 MPH. I was on back roads so didn't take it up to past that. Definitely a low hum, but barely noticeable with the radio on.
