You're not kidding. Throwing them up on the J's on the roof rack is getting harder and harder. Used to be I could do it myself, now I need a second set of hands if not anything to help guide it on. I have a 12ft Mad River Synergy and a 13.5ft Perception America but don't use them as much as I...
Well... I didn't take my BS there but I went to Iceland last week. Saw these monsters, as well as a brand new Ranger Raptor that I didn't manage to get a pic of.
This is a 6-door diesel Superduty based custom by Arctic Trucks. The smaller (!!) is a Land Cruiser 150 or Prado as its known...
Adding to the rust talk-- a solid point like this won't have the same issues as a shackle (less nooks and crannies). https://yankum.com/collections/tow-points/products/2-inch-hitch-receiver-recovery-point
Otherwise the best option IMO is to keep your recovery point safely stored inside and...
On a lot of cars, the metal on the top of the shock towers is thin. Connecting those towers with a rigid bar will make the vehicle more flat into a turn but if it isn't properly reinforced it can cause stress fractures in the metal. Unsure on ours so the reason why I bring up the point. A longer...
Regarding the strut tower bar-- I think any time you can limit the twist on a unibody you're doing good work. Although I don't drive the Bronco like I do my BMW, this may get added to the cart today.
Does anyone have a close up on the mounting plates/position? I want to make sure that before I...
I get what you're saying but there isn't any way a BS BL/HL is going to be able to do what a stock Rubicon can do. You're right- you dont need 40's and a straight axle for everything but when you do, its a game changer. This isn't the vehicle for the off road crowd- that's the domain of the full...
@Tigger does the bug deflector actually work? My washer fluid budget is getting blown!
I wish that Ford put the thicker white stripe on the Limited's. It looks great on the standard Heritages.
IDK. From what Ive read Toyota is half angry/half doesn't care what the dealers do. Their "ordering" system is more screwed up than Ford's.
Almost all of the Toyota dealers near me except one are part of big corporate chains (read: Shit service, shit sales staff, shit prices, and generally...
Hard to say but I don't think it will top the TRD Pro's sticker when the time comes. I think the TRD Pro will hit $75K but I think the Trailhunter will hang in the 60's to compete better with the Colorado ZR2 ($62k-ish) and the just announced 2024 Mojave X ($65-70Kish). The ZR2 Bison when it...
For us the BS was a better option than the full size 4-door because the majority of the time it will be on the road and commuting about town, road trips, etc. We did get the chance to side by side test our BS HL and a Big Bend that came on the same truck for dealer stock. Price delta between the...
I already have the Yakima towers with their HD bars but am kicking around maybe getting a basket and swapping in and out depending on my trip. Beach? Basket. Lake and bringing the kayak? Bars.
Lower profile is better far as I'm concerned.
Sharp!! Gold wheels really look good against the green. BTW: a BL in Eruption was our second choice if we weren't able to track down the Yellowstone HL we wound up with.
Had the same experience with the BL you did on the test drive, and coincidentally we had just come from a Jeep dealer where...
