I've used Gaia for years, but some of their recent changes have caused me temporary grief and I'm looking at OnX. Gaia's land ownership data isn't as good as OnX's, although it does seem to be getting better. Since OnX was originally built for hunting where you need to absolutely know if you're...

Some of it covered here: https://socalbroncos.com/forum/threads/must-haves.521/ but not all of it. As you gain experience your own list will grow and change with you. I would prioritize a radio (so others can find you if you're lost) and being able to air up and down. Suggest that you use what...

Look up last year's threads on this, "Archived Threads...". There is a thread started by Dusty that has a link to the trail descriptions, and another thread of his with descriptions and map links to each of the staging areas. That isn't to say that everything this year will be the same. You can...

The shape of the frame is going to limit the up travel to the same position regardless of lift. Unless you do something wild and crazy anyway. At first I thought that it might be that the Caster can't be set right at a lower lift, but after looking at the page on them I'm not sure. What does...

Me too.

I'm putting these in order of what I think is greatest to least important. When in doubt about any of this, buy from a reputable off-road specific vendor like the vendors that support this forum, or Off-Road Warehouse. Fire Extinguisher: The biggest that you can fit and make secure in an easy...

Well, the floor jack bled down while I was at work allowing the DS beam to go to full droop, and in the process it leaked about a quart of diff juice onto the concrete. So now at least that whole side has to come back apart and possibly the PS as well. dang! but I'm glad to know now that there's...

Ran into the promoter of this event last night: https://thethrowdowncornholetournament.com/ The mech. fuel pump in his new to him EB appeared to have quit working. I stopped to see if I could help, but they had it under control. Of course while I was there I pimped the BBBB and he told me that...

Oh yeah, I don't doubt it. A B movie was shot in my neighborhood when I was in HS. They didn't have an exclusive use in place because people lived there, but a couple of times it got ugly when the people who actually lived there were just going about their lives and picked the wrong time to do...

True Bronco Spirit there! Taking a Bronco to Moab during EJS!

I don't think that they really had a choice. Yeah, they could have had an exclusive use agreement with the BLM and probably did, but there are so many ways into that area that it would've taken a literal army of security folks to keep everyone out.

Yes, Please! I'll even volunteer for tail-gunner again if that makes it go.

Major milestone reached last night, the front brakes are assembled and complete. I just need to modify the radius arms for the side mounting trailing damper lower mounts, fab the reservoir mounts, and I'll be ready to bleed the brakes and go for a test drive. One thing that I noticed yesterday...

I was thinking that maybe a pivot could be added to the existing bumper, but if that one is like those that I'm familiar with it really doesn't have the structure needed. Especially for a 37. You'd need to build such structure inside/behind it. Which is doable, but not a small project. Tire Gate...

Got that same pic with the tailgate closed?

Centurions were rare when they were new. Now they're even rarer. Got to drive a Metropolitan (the 2WD version) that a friend had for his Tow Rig. The 460 never met a dead dino it didn't like. Friend said it got 10 no matter where you were going or how heavily it was loaded. Bob, you been in...

In general the larger the bar's OD and/or the shorter the lever arms are the more likely it is to be felt in a quick response maneuver. Front and rear sway spring rates are developed together which is why I suggest taking the rear off if you've taken the front off. Unless "Rally Car / Robbie...

IF there's a rear sway bar I'd take it off too.

I modified mine. As supplied it put the spare way too high, I think that I lowered it almost 6 inches. That's a 35-12.50R15 bolted on it in the pic. If you order anything custom do not assume anything, make sure that it is spelled out in the quote. If it's not there they won't do it. Mine was...

The beams were done by someone fairly skilled but they missed on the PS beam's camber. Using the largest angle adjuster gets it almost close to spec. These would be good beams for a wahoo machine that doesn't see long drives on pavement or maybe a HS kid's truck. I did make long drives on...
