What did you do to your Bronco today?

Mikey Smith

Quick question, does it interfere with shoes with getting in and out? And is that a 2 or 4-door? Thx!

I didn’t notice any interference getting in and out today of either side of the Bronco. I saw that Mabbet had recently released a set for the rear doors as well.
Pictures posted are the front doors of a 4 door Wildtrak.

Built Wild… Stay Wild

Went with the Mountains2Metal MOLLE Front and Rear Door Pockets for my 4dr Badlands, also the Passenger Center Console MOLLE panel, which bulges out about 3/4” to clip onto
I also, opted to leave the factory mesh w/ colored bungee installed, giving the pocket a bit of tension agains items
Don’t feel them against my leg during driving and not in the way of climbing in n out. Recommended

Drove 150 miles to the butcher to pick up my half of a beef.

Awesome winter adventure! I wish I had a place nearby to buy a half of beef. So much tastier than grocery store meat.

Did use you hitch extension yesterday for my bike rack took the spare tire off. Going back to the extension could barely open the gate.

Added gloss black Bronco emblems to front fenders, Shorty antenna, AIG Mud flaps, blue Sticker fab "Bronco" dash stickers, WeatherTech Mats with Custom emblem using my old Wildtrack decals

Was finally able to find some time to install my grab handles and Mabett front cup holders. So far I really like them. They add a good amount of storage and don’t interfere at all with my legs or feet.

For those that have installed these door storage pods/cup holders (Mabett sit similar style), do they prevent using the door storage bags? I’m in winter mode here, but plan on removing doors next summer, with OEM style storage bags. Mine is 2 door, so just the garage bags, but I’ve read they fit pretty tight.

I installed my Stickerfab dash lettering.

In my first 10 days, I have installed:
Bartact grab handles, Built right stubby antenna, Buck Your Bronco Slingshot BYOD rail & attachments, Redline Tuning hood struts, Pioneer 4" speakers (no pics, sorry), IAG full-length steprails, and a temporary "paint" job. Still need to attach the BN grill badge & fog lights.

Installed my one of a kind
40 year old hand rubbed leather grab handles.

A daily reminder/ tribute to the men that taught me everything outdoors.

Rack, side rack and light bar installed.

Any issues with the light bar install?

Installed K&N Cold Air intake. I did this project with my daughter who has been my go to on many projects through the years. The product quality is excellent what I would expect from K&N. They include step by step instructions with pictures and also on their website but an installation video would be a real help. I loved the note on K&N's website that it only takes 90 minutes to install, Maybe in an alternative dimension. Expect to spend about 4 hours on the total install and then go back and make sure everything is nice and tight and sealed properly. After you driven a a bit I found several things required tightening but most adjustments were really minor.
Seat of the pants results are absolutely more horsepower, low speed drivability is just as good and the torque is stronger but is not abrupt and nice and smooth. There is more intake noise and you can hear and feel the turbos spooling up faster. Looking at the factory pipes you realize how convoluted and restrictive they are.

Interested to know if you are noticing any improvement or reduced fuel economy since you have installed the K&N? Do you plan to add a performance tune next? If so which one? I'm sure the intake in addition to a tune will really make a difference. Looks very good!

How is the reception with this , I was thinking of putting one on but heard mixed reviews.

For everyone out there adding shorty antennas, make sure you add a drop of Loctite Threadlocker Blue. If will slow down any potential thieves from walking up and snatching them with ease.

Other than me wanting to put my foot in it I haven’t driven far enough to comment on the fuel economy yet. I am considering an MBRT exhaust and I have looked at several reviews on tuning including one from Canada that combined K&N with a tune for crazy numbers. I’ll update this when I have few more miles on it.

That’s a good question that surprisingly I haven’t seen yet, I have not tried it, I haven’t even opened the bags yet. They do stick out quit a bit so it’s possible it won’t fit.

Those look ? like Zroadz running steps. Sweet! I have the 2dr steps and the bumper light bar. These are HEAVY DUTY made in Corona California. I have Morimoto 2Bangers on back order for the bar and Morimoto 4Bangers for the A Pillars should be here today.

Is the K&N legal where you at? They probably won’t even let me buy it in CA.

Yes they are and I love them! Looks are second to none.
