Love it! Your brother's Everglades is awesome. Having said that, your stance and tire/wheel combo is awesome. My guess is you are going to get a winch mounted up so you two can go play and get into messes together. And then get each other unstuck.

The Everglades belongs to @Jakob1972. ;)

Getting a lift?

@cristian brings up a good point though -- you guys are going to have a lot of fun lol

I didn't think I'd like the EVERGLADES logo, but with the base wheel set up it has a very cool Jungle Jim safari retro look.

Yep getting a lift 37 and some tie-rod/steering box upgrades to handle the 37s just haven’t decided if I want to just get some hoss3.0 tie rods and keep an extra pair for backup instead I like the idea of the tie rods being the too much fun fuse and not the steering box.

Yeah I didn’t think I would like the huge Everglades decal but it is really nice and is quite intricate with several cut outs to see body color. I’m keeping it.

Apart from the snorkel, that graphic really sets the vehicle apart from its Bronco kin. And those wheels are incredible. They look bulletproof and purpose-built. LOVE them! 😍

Fingers crossed that my 2 door with the HOSS 3.0 will be here next week. I am looking forward to finding out what lifts work with it. I'll stick with 35s. They look great on the race Broncos.

I do like the 35’s. But the wife is pushing for the 37s. She never wants to spend money on things like that errr. On Anything, so I need to strike while the iron is hot. LOL

Interesting, like eye of the beholder and all. I think the Everglades looks better than the Basesquatch. I would have guessed the next mod would be lights, two Hella 500 fogs and two Hella 700 driving lights and then call it done, or maybe some new more aggressive tires, narrow width, but not necessarily taller, "swampers" to go with the Everglades.

yep, (2) 6" diameter Hellas on the bumper to complete that retro look.

I'm totally in love with your wife !!

Yeah she’s a keeper.

Funny how plans change. After I discussed with the wife all the things I would need to add so that I would feel comfortable wheeling it with 37” and the fact that my brother sold his Bronco because of the lift and 37”. He loved the way it looked but did not like living with it, he is a few inches shorter than I. He had running boards but the step was too high, every time he used them to get in it was like getting into and out of a corvette, he developed a muscle issue do to the awkward entry. So with this new information we decided to hold off on the lift and 37s at least until we need to replace the factory Goodyears, at which time we will reevaluate. For now I am acquiring recovery gear and an air compressor and inflation/deflation gear. And we are going to wheel this thing some.
