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.

Replaced all the 4 inch speakers with a Pioneer speakers. A lot better than that of the factory installed ones. That is if you don't have those B&Os that comes in a higher trim and model Broncos. Don't forget to attach a Bass blocker on the positive wires.

Just installed my bronco busters rear shock mount skid plates. As a side note you need the taller jack stands and don't use the trailing arm bracket for your jack point, it will lift the vehicle enough to change tire but it restricted the rear axle motion. Prevents shock from properly aligning with mount holes. . Once I figured out that issue took 1 hour per side. Also unless you have a high torque impact wrench you have to break the bolts free. Had to use a 1/2 inch breaker bar and a 5ft cheater pipe.

I know that the shackles look good attached to the mounts , I have red, but I found that they will get beat to death if you go off-roading. Just sayin.

The battery was dead this morning and I charged it.
The touchscreen went blank and the radio didn’t work. The back up camera was on all the time the daybefore.

So… I hooked up the Ottocast car play device and connected it to the in vehicle wifi, the result is the ability to watch Netflix and YouTube, Hulu, etc via the 12” display on the larger portion of the screen (not all 12”, and I do not condone watching while driving.)

I also got my rear Molle Panel 3D Printed Cup Holders (Broken Innovation) installed and a radio pouch and water bottle pouch.

So I am totally prepped for my trip this weekend to Tennessee.

Vanity Plate showed up today along with the EG Rear Door Oval, had to remove the blue oval with the chrome trim. It was the only chrome on the body of the truck, looks much better yet not real cheap.

Iv been considering those. I'm wondering how they will hold up doing serious wheeling. Will they get dented and hang up, will they get stuck when stuffed with mud. What about submerged in water?. They look good. I will hope for some offroad reviews.
coming soon

Washed the bronco and finally cleaned the inside windows. Took the first 2 rows of the top off and went on a 150 road trip. Drove over to South Haven, then up the coast of Lake Michigan from South Haven, through Saugatuck and headed home after we got to Holland. It got up to 69 and was a beautiful day for a ride!

Saw a Cactus Gray 4dr Big Bend in South Haven and an Oxford White WildTrak in Saugatuck. The Oxford White bronco and us were waving at each other like Forrest Gump. :ROFLMAO:


Also added a fire extinguisher to the bronco.

I got the Bronco back home today after having the heated seats and tint installed. Took some pictures of the heated seat controls. They look upside down, but thats because you'll be looking down. Since they installed right after delivery they are covering them as part of the 3 year new car warranty!
Stupid question. Did they actually install new seats? Or covers? Or just slip the heating elements under existing covers?

I wonder if these will crank as much as factory (I find them almost too hot even at level1!)

Installed Ford Rear Molle Panel

Install is super easy, but… I didn’t think the 6 plastic clips sturdy enough (and didn’t want to use the Velcro strips either).



So I added (6) M6 nutserts to beef up the mounting.



1. Drilling the first hole was the hardest. Wrap bit about 10x with painters tape, this adds enough of a shoulder to keep ya from poking through the tailgate.

2. I used an old soldering iron as sort of a “hot knife” to poke the holes into the nylon panel (to pass the M6 screws through). This worked surprisingly well.

They take the seats apart to install the heated pads. On low they are just warm not too hot but comfortable. I've only used them once just to see how they feel. I am happy with them, and the seats don't look any different.

I’m not sure how bad Birdie sheds, but Halo sheds bad! Wait…..I believe all labs shed bad.

We have a Meadowlark seat cover to cut down on the hair inside the bronco and it has a buckle that clips into the seat belt clip.
