Anyone happen to know what gives the 25 SAS its higher than normal tow rating compared to the first gen? I feel like I remember reading about an upgraded cooler but I can’t seem to find a source on that It’s a pretty similar engine and the transmission is mostly the same; is it the suspension...

Howdy all, A quick ask for those of you with 2025’s with the rear tow/recovery points; can you pretty pretty pretty please poke around the rings and maybe take a look under the rear of your car to see how they’re connected to the chassis? I can’t figure it out from any of the available diagrams...

Took a phenomenal trip up to Flagpole Knob in George Washington National Forest this weekend by way of Skidmore lake. Didn’t get a ton of great pics (terrain never looks as hard as it was in person), but it was some surprisingly tough terrain! Lots of sections where I was very grateful for my...

Howdy all, I've seen this sporadically reported, but if you're like me you've got a Bronco Sport with a front camera // front camera washer. That front camera washer leaks, even while not using the washer system. Eventually it will just puke out the entire reservoir onto your garage floor...

Howdy all, similar to my swing out tie down thread this is consolidating some initial research on potentially retrofitting the 2025 rear bumper onto the first gen sports Particularly, I’m excited about the fact that it has steel plating and that it has real rear recovery points. My badlands now...

Howdy all! Putting my toggle switches to good use. Had to get a little creative with the CAD for this one, since there’s no easy way to access the underside of this plastic. Obviously stole a lot of inspiration from the Rough Country light bar mounting, but this won’t interfere with my ACC like...

Eagerly looking forward to seeing if the 2025 side fender tie downs can be retrofit onto the first gen sports. Looking at the parts listing for the 2025’s, it looks like the tie down is a support braket that pokes through the fender, bolted through what looks like the door hinge? If anyone’s...

In case you couldn’t tell, I despise loose wires These are Rigid Ignites, they make a bracket specifically for the Bronco Sport. They can be angled and put out a ton of light for their size. I wanted to be able to throw a bunch of light around the car when setting up for camp, or angled forward...

Howdy, it’s me again! This time I wanted a mounting solution for inside the center console. Namely, I wanted a spot to secure my GMRS radio and its handheld in a spot where it can charge, but it’ll be nice for anything MOLLE or belt clip compatible. Grabbed some measurements and got to work...

No need to wait for a 2025! Continuing on my customization spree; I designed and printed this toggle switch plate with NASA style switch guards. The switches control relays in the engine bay; two will control diffused floodlights on the sides of the car. The rest are open for future expansion...

For this grommet in the drivers door; where on earth does it come out? Looking to see if I can run some wires to the engine bay through it, but even with lights and cable running wire I’ve been defeated trying to find out where it’s actually accessible

Short and sweet; As you might have noticed, the factory wireless charging pad sucks. Even if you’ve had the reprogramming TSB done and it’s sitting perfectly on the pad, it’s only 5W. That’s barely enough to maintain the current charge for today’s phone. Also, it doesn’t hold your phone in...

In case you were curious like I was; the JCR hatch MOLLE panel fits nicely with the CMS without any modification. Obviously you’ll have to be cognizant of how you mount things to it so they’re above or below the table, but otherwise it works great! Will be swapping out the gas struts for...

I’m a sucker for special editions, so when a CPO First Edition WITH a Cargo Management System popped up for a steal, I knew I’d found the one. Been hunting for one for a while, there aren’t that many FE’s in Cactus Grey for sale out there at the moment. Been shopping around for something more...

Spent a solid few hours cruising through GRSF over the weekend, and had a blast doing it! Thanks to the Rivian forum guys that I shamelessly stole my route from. Great mix of graded forest roads and a few tricky to navigate parts for a first timer. Even with just regular OB tires it cruised...

Howdy all, Have any of you hit these trails? I'm looking to somewhere to dip my toes in the water. Not after anything crazy. I'm looking to check out Meadow Mountain, which as I gather is essentially a gravel road (that's fine to start!), but can find very little info about the other Maryland...
