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 agree, Tacoma was not much better 😔. I thought about heading out, but after we both worked all day……well let’s just say I’m not as spontaneous as I used to be

Even in a smaller city like Sioux Falls the Northern lights couldn't be really seen. My daughter went out about 15 miles to get a good view.

I never realized there were locks for the capless gas spouts. Would you mind sharing a link for the one you got?
Sure, got it inAmazon

Okay, it took way longer than I thought, but we got that RTR grille on yesterday. Hoping to get an install video (w/ greater detail than the one RTR provides) put together soon.

But it turned out great!

And of course we had to be a little silly about the reveal:

Awesome! Great video! It's always better to have a little fun!

You caught the Northern Lights last night! I love the pix of them with your Bronco. It could be a once-in-a-lifetime photo opp. I'm glad you thought to combine these two beauties. Bravo! 😎

I couldn't see squat from Seattle. I'll have to head out of the city and find a darker place tonight; it's supposed to be clear.
They've been on my bucket list for many years, I still may try in Alaska one day. I hope you got to see them yesterday. I drove out into dark farm lands higher up. It definatly was more visible through my phones camera. It was a challenge getting enough lighting for the Bronco to show up but enough dark for the Northern Lights to be visible. I still didn't get it as good as I wished, but I'm glad I got what I did.

Finally installed the bumper & winch I've had sitting around for 6 weeks.
Bumper is called Carnivore from Stallion4x4 (Quadratec's Bronco brand).
Winch is Badlands Apex 12k from HF
Fog lights are Diode Dynamics from @4x4TruckLEDs.com

I think it looks great & I got the bumper on sale for $450.... Crazy.

Thank you! Does the keyed lock feel durable or like it could come apart and lock you out?

I find that most of the company’s putting out product instruction and videos never show how hard it really is. Sometimes they can gloss over the more challenging aspects of the installation.

I did the same with my Bronco first aid kit. Purchased from the parts counter upon Bronco pickup. I ordered a 2nd with points shipped from Ford recently and it had this notice on the box. 🤣

Thanks!
I wasn't 100% sold on the bumper, but the deal I got was too good to pass up.

Now that it's on, I'm definitely starting to like it more.

When I take my doors off I hated the look of the yellow and white warnings and tire pressure tire size etc. I had some dark grey (not color matched yet) magnets cut to correct size to place over them.
Clever and industrious.

Yeah, and honestly a lot of it had to do with the BS fasteners Ford uses not working the way I think they should work and, ya know, being plastic BS. But on RTR's part, they didn't necessarily give a good look at different steps in the process in either the video or their printed instructions.

But...it's on now, and looks great.

Looks good! Gotta Love getting a good deal! I've been looking at front bumpers and $450 is really good.

It's pretty stable and it only goes in "one-way" as seen in my picture. The silver plate goes under the gas snout when you turn the key and pull it out to lock it. Pretty simple mechanics.

Thanks for the responses. Good to hear! The first one I had on my Mustang had a cheap lock core that almost locked me out of putting gas in it. Once I got that sucker off I tossed it and bought a better one. Glad to know this won't create headaches.
