Exactly what the title states - putting a thread together where we can come and post little tidbits of anything we have done today, and as we build them to our own tastes.

I performed two small "mods" that I've been meaning to make. One practical, one cosmetic. I added door sill plates and hood struts.

The good news is I can open my hood fully in the confines of my garage without it hitting any of the overhead pipes. I'll take that as a "win." ;)

Chris here. I drive a 2-door Velocity Blue 2023 Ford Bronco Badlands with Sasquatch, Lux, a 2.7L V6, and an automatic transmission. It’s fun.

Installed the AutoStop Eliminator ($99, autostopeliminator.com, CJ Pony Parts, others) over the weekend and love it love it love it. The auto-stop really drove me nuts for some reason. Was a little scary pulling all the trim if you haven't done that before, but other than that install was a breeze (about 30 min total).
Also picked up a spare tire cover from Etsy (had to trim the camera hood a bit) and a trailer hitch cover from CJ Pony Parts.
Next steps are setting up a second wireless charging space for my wife's phone (my model has 1 built-in) and installing the AR Magnum Stirrups when they arrive...
(Yeah, I know it needs a wash)

Hmmm.... Could have sworn I post this earlier and yet nothing. 😳

I installed a pair of Rigid Ditch lights on the Bronco this weekend. Ford sure does make it easy to install but it usually takes me twice as long as it should because I try to hide all the wires or put them in a factory type loom.

Nice! I just ordered what I believe is the same (but square) did these come with a relay and wiring for the battery or did you have to splice? The square ones didn't really clarify but I got a great deal on them so I just bought them.

I didn't really like the looks of any of the camera relocation kits but hated the partial obstruction caused by my pull bar, so I improvised. I just used some ram bar light brackets. I like the look and strength much better and saved quite a bit of $ too. I moved the inner sensors and sensor bezels too protecting all the wiring accordingly. Debating if I want to move the ACC sensor or if I even care about it.

No, the supplied wiring on these were really basic. Red and black coming off a the lights and then a couple of 6ft red and black wires that were used to tie them together. Then hook the red to the auxiliary switch wiring and the black to ground.

I was kind of figuring. It will be a little more work since I don't have the aux switches but the ones I got were super cheap so it will be worth it.

Do you have to remove the spare to use the compressor?

Nope, there is a quick disconnect from AGS, who made the kit, that fits in the holes of your spare tire rim. The kit allows for movement so that you can customize it to your wheel syle.

Did you check with Frank before using the aux wiring? … just saying….

ARB doesn’t make this conversion, right? ARB double compressor and someone else’s kit for the spare…?
