1 Year Review - RTR Bronco Tailgate Products

B MIller

Here's my thoughts after one year of having the RTR tailgate products installed. These are the Pros / Cons that I found with the system. Hope this helps everyone out!

Another solid video! Thanks!

Another solid video! Thanks!

Very welcome!

Nice video. What is the max. weight that the tail gate can hold?
1. Stock, no extra system added?
2. With a system like the RTR in this video.

I haven't been able to this in the manual or Ford sights. I will admit I haven't done a lot or research.

Thanks,
Dave

I was originally thinking of buying it. But watching the video made me say no to it. I just want something that add a bit more storage. I'm interested in what IAG has but not in any rush.

I was/still kinda am too. Its the only brace I have seen that doesnt completely cover the Bronco emblem side of the back of the tailgate.

Serious question though- How much father up and out does this move the spare tire? I really like the RTR rear bumper, but you need to use either this brace or their spacer to clear the bumper with the spare tire installed. I routinely pull a camper and my jack handle is already pretty close to the tire (like a half inch or so). I would really hate to create another problem because I dont particularly like the plastic bumper.

The spare tire can go up and left a few inches. It's pretty slick in that regard.

Helpful vid / presentation. Been researching this RTR kit for adding a spare tire rack and undecided but better informed due to this vid. Great pointers (2 person job), details (the click) and honesty (square jerry can alignment would be nice, I agree).

Thank you for the comment. It's not a bad product by any means. But could use a few improvements.
