First Round and end of Season Upgrades / Changes Complete

Marmot

Saddlebag ("Badglades" unscrambled) is starting to come along. There have been a few days since taking delivery where the temperature was actually above freezing and working on the rig was bearable. I'm originally from the south. These northern winters can be painful haha.

Love it! Very similar tastes as me! EG was an option before I changed back to A51🤣
Love the Rims and when possible probably will change out to those. Love the color on them!

I fell in love with the Everglades wheels the moment Ford announced that trim. Such a good design, IMO. The carbonized grey color looks great against the vehicle. Will look sick on an A51!

Those Everglades wheels look awesome on your Bronco! 😍

Hey @Marmot could you send me a PM with the info on the wheels. I want to try to source those and compare to another style I may go with. thanks, Tim

Yeah where did you get Everglades wheels? they are the best looking factory wheel in my opinion.
It is crazy how it is throwing me off seeing the Glades wheels with the Badlands badge.
Your ride is sweet. and love the Saddlebag name.

Thank you, @Laura! Blew me away the first time I saw them on in person. Better than expected.

Thank you, @Jakob1972. Fully agree - one of the best factory production wheels I have seen. Fell in love with them the moment Ford revealed the Everglades. The name was a complete coincidence. When I was first planning it out I knew I wanted the Everglades wheels and I had written down "Badglades." The name clicked soon after and fit perfectly so I had to go with it.

I ordered the wheels through my dealer. Ended up having to find an Everglades VIN online and they used that to help me dig up the part number in their parts system. Ordered them when my Bronco was confirmed built and it timed near perfectly when the Bronco delivered for install. One thing I have learned is that Ford does not make it easy to lookup part numbers yourself online. Their public catalog is terrible, but with a VIN, description, and an idea, a dealer can find it with a little time. Intentional on Ford's part, I am sure.

Haha - yeah, it threw a lot of the guys off at the dealership, mostly because they haven't seen or received an Everglades model as of yet. When I went to pick it up a few of them were asking, "what wheels are those?"

I am glad to know they look better with BFGs now I’m not so worried about adding a lift and 37” with the factory wheels. The wife really wants the 37s

Like everyone else love those Everglade wheels. They are probably the only wheels I would swap out my optional BD wheels for.

Those wheels are fire! 🔥 They look great on your truck.

I wish I had saved it. But I ran across a new release wheel on B6G that were very similar to the Everglades wheels.

Warn has a wheel (jackhammer) that looks pretty close to the Glades wheel but I think it is only sized for the Jeep and 5 lugs. I was trying to get those for my Teardrop build. https://www.warn.com/epic-wheels-jack-hammer-gunmetal-106690

Sometimes it's the little things... Black "Bucking Horse" emblem and Off-Rodeo sticker applied.
