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.

IMO that Ranger one looks better. Though the branding does appear to be a riveted plate that offroading might tear off.

I really liked the painted, hammered one also. But the Bronco one has the drain plug

I saw the sticker I wanted. @Ditchrunner
was first to add it, or at least post it and I had to copy.
The town I live in has a lot of rodeo folks in it, so it really fits.

And I've got the buckle to go with it.

We'll be there in September!!

And it looks great!

Got the Apex RCV rapid deflators installed. Took like 5 minutes total and that was with airing back up afterwards with my power tank.

Time will tell if they leak like my RPV's did but I don't think those were installed correctly. I'll see if these are leaking in the morning. So far, it does not look like they are.

The RCV's are a simple install. Remove valve core and replace with the RCV. I lost about 5 psi per tire when doing the swaparoo.

I need to spray the Bronco down and clean all the dust out of the interior from my weekend off-road trip before I head off to Overland Expo PNW on Thursday..

Quoting myself for an update if anyone is interested the these RCV rapid deflators. 3 days since install, no leaking air!

Looks great. Looks like you could light up a ball park!

Look at what I spent most of the day on. It really doesn't take that long to do the orange light set or replace the Bronco letters. I took my time and planned it out. The most tedious part was removing the back of the letters.

I have the orange lights on with headlights and the white letters on an auxiliary switch.

Mabett for the orange lights and Tesmirrors for the light up letters. Tesmirror was way less than the other brand. They do light up differently from each brand.

I don't know why each picture gets turned 90* on here! They are straight up when I upload them.

If you aren’t towing or going off road a lot I wouldn’t worry about doing it so soon. Seeing as it says 150K you would be fine. Totally up to you though. I have been hitting it pretty hard so that is why I did it so soon.

Not towing at all, and probably won`t off road until I head to Alabama in July, but even then, it would be minimal, though I doubt that I would wait 150K. Thank you.

I'll try and get some pics up in the next couple of days. I like it, it looks better than the OEM in my opinion. The hardware for the roof racks and rear windows are machined aluminum. It's as quiet, maybe more so than the OEM. Definitely quieter than my old soft top of course. It's fully lined with a fuzz/carpet sort of lining. It seems very stout. I think Turn has a video somewhere, where they put a V8 engine on it without damage. I've seen grown men standing on it without a problem. Turn has a pretty extensive ad on it on their website, with all the stuff involved.

Thanks for the further post, great info for those interested in an aftermarket top!

This was actually yesterday but, I fixed my fog light. Oracle sent me a new harness and that solved the problem.

Elk dropped a calf ’bout 30ft in front of our Bronco last night. A little unsteady, mother and calf are fine.

I assume that duck on your dash wandered over from the jeep owner at the top of your pic and you are just returning it to it's home? I would be careful with that thing on your dash, those damn ducks leave a hell of a mess all over my sidewalk....

I am Interested in some sort of A-pillar lights that are the equivalent of either the old school spot light used on law enforcement cruisers OR aircraft landing lights (some sort of long range spot beam) . I don`t want to mount above the level of my roof rack, though I would consider something that mounts up on the Capable Bumper. Suggestions? Thank you!

I wasn’t expecting that either, definitely was fascinating to see it

Any suggestions for drinks next time there?

Sorry, never been there.... That and I am rather simple when it comes to drinks... I used to make the fancy ones when I worked as a bartender.... but never really were my thing. I have heard ducks like water?
