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 installed one of these this past summer. I took the bottle opener off and was able to feed 50 ft , 2-25 ft. ropes, of Amsteel tow line in the open space. I tried to get another 100 ft, but not enough room.

Is your truck Red or Hot Pepper Red?

At Foutz Motorsports last week for an install.

They are great people. I enjoyed my time there. Nice being around people who do great work and are happy to make sure you are looked after.

Here is what they did:

1) Rear lower arm frame guards
2) Rear Differential skid plate
3) Rear shock mount skids
4) Billet half tie rod kit
5) Tie rod nut and support tube for 16mm
5) FMI main skid plate

Pics not in order......

looking forward to a little more protection in the new year. It seems I need it. Once I get my CV issue sorted we will get out there and get this stuff dirty!

He has Rapid Red. It is in his signature. That is the red that I wanted, but didn't want to keep clean.

Played with other Broncos in the mountains again. Mellow day, beautiful scenery, good people.


I am not a leader. I just like to go first.

Testing out the KBD flares to see if I like them.
Disclaimer: they haven't been warmed up so they are dented from shipping still, and I just set them there.

If I decide I like them, then I'm going to have to decide body colored or gloss black. They need finishing work IMO, and trimming in some areas.

AARDVARK122 has done these really well.

I wonder how these would look in a matte CG?

That would be interesting! I am worried they'll look weird if they aren't an exact gloss CG match, so that's why I was thinking gloss black for ease.

The reason I threw the matte CG out there is to match the top

Right because then I was wondering where I draw the line on gloss vs matte, with the mirror caps, top, and handles all being MIC. I don't like how they line up with the mod bumpers either, and I don't have a garage and this is a garage project in prepping them, so this project will be a very slow rollout as I choose 😂 might just need to move first so I can have squared flares ...

Took it on the 7 Mile Rim Trail. Had to take some poser shots, as the scenery is so great. Went out/down Wipe Out Hill, and according to the dash it is a 35% incline. Then stopped for a shot by the President Trump rock.

We had a near 60 degree day in MI so I put my Meraki Hammocks bracket on this Bronco and the StickerFab overlay in Light Smoke LX+ over the blue oval.

I’ve been putting modifications on my Bronco for the last 2 years. This is my first unsuccessful mod :( It is the Mabett Raptor style tailgate reinforcement. The holes would not line up and unfortunately stripped 1 bolt. Mabett is investigating, but looks like it didn’t fit because I have the Sas version. I do like the hinges as they are nice and hefty, so I left them in.
