    Bronco Wildtrak

    We spent last week camping in La Junta Canyon outside of Sipapu, NM. There was very little info on the Micro Sport XT trailer as far as using to only haul gear rather than kayaks and whether or not the trailer would do well pulling with the tongue retracted. For this trip I drilled a hole in the...

    Bronco Wildtrak

    This spring I picked up a Malone Microsport XT to haul kayaks and camping gear which has worked great so far. There wasn't, much info that I could find on using the trailer for anything other than kayaks and maybe bikes or a roof storage box, but it seemed like it would work out ok. Memorial Day...

    Bronco Wildtrak

    It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything to this thread. There’s not much to report mod wise. I have added a factory fuel tank skid (new from marketplace for $75) and rock rails (new take offs from marketplace place for $50). That’s about it but we’ve taken it on a few trips and it’s up to...

    Malone Micro Sport XT

    Man, silence. I’ll probably try to grab one of these in the next few weeks for a kayaking/camping trip Memorial Day weekend and then maybe with a shortened tongue for an extended camping trip in July to New Mexico. Will be pulling with a Bronco. Maybe I’ll delete this thread (if that’s a thing...

    Malone Micro Sport XT

    Has anyone ever seen or used a Malone Micro Sport XT? Primarily I could really use a kayak trailer but would also like for it to double as a camping gear and bike hauler. It seems like this trailer could be versatile with it's 800 lb capacity. I'm thinking if I add the extension to my mega...

    Ramcharger specs are out

    I'd take a 2-door Expedition Raptor for sure, except then I wouldn't because they'd slap a $120k price tag on it. I love my 4 door 6g Bronco but would have bought a 1/2 ton 2 door version with removable top/doors if Ford or Chrysler made one and would be more than happy. I've had a couple K5s...

    Bronco Wildtrak

    Thanks! I got my parts from Ford Accessories pretty quick despite some of the horror stories I had read. I had ordered on a Friday and they were ready for pickup at a local dealer by Tuesday. Hopefully we get our Expedition back from the body shop soon (long story) it's been raining a lot lately...

    Bronco Wildtrak

    Nice, ya'll got some good pictures. From the looks of your photos that Wildtrak still had the HOSS 2.0 suspension. The HOSS 3.0 with the Fox shocks are really smooth. I feel almost nothing on the road. I've hit a pothole or two and instinctively braced for impact but the Bronco just glides right...

    Bronco Wildtrak

    I suppose I’ll start a thread. I had intended on getting a Big Bend or Black Diamond Bronco with Sasquatch. I wouldn’t say I needed Sasquatch but I would have never been satisfied with a stock Bronco and I would have gone years before doing anything about it. So, starting with the Sasquatch...

    Photos of mid-sized vehicles - Post Here

    I've followed your thread and the other couple on here since the start. The Bronco has been on my list of wants since they came out. I was really just planning on a Big Bend or Black Diamond with the only real options being hardtop and sasquatch package. Sure, I could get by without it but I...

    I’ve been on the forum for a long while but I’m new to the mid-size side of the forum. Definitely looking forward to many adventures in this new Wildtrak.

    2019 Expedition Max FX4 *Moby*

    The ready lift is fine, it was installed from the beginning so I don't know any different. It's just the 1.5" in the front and factory rear. I plan on doing Bilsteins all the way around in the next year though. I've read conflicting info on the Expy front Bilsteins. The description generally...

    2019 Expedition Max FX4 *Moby*

    We have a 2019 FX4 Expedition Max that we purchased new. It's a great vehicle for trips and hauling the family but we have had some issues mechanical/electrical issues. Ours has a 1.5" leveling kit from Readylift installed by the dealer and currently has 275/70/18 tires. I feel like the best...

    Ford ESP non-horror story....

    The leaking valve cover gasket was probably their problem to start with after they did the cam phasers. A few weeks after the cam phasers were replaced on our Expedition ours started leaking from the valve cover and back to them it went. If they charged that to your ESP then they're doing pretty...
