Looks like there might be. He’s missing the rear passenger wheel well trim.
I’m missing mine I don’t have 35s. It’s more an issue of the springs allowing too much flex. I need bump stops.

@DukeCanBuildit you referring to mine? I can’t see the post now

@Colo_Ranger you not have the stock bumps installed? I swapped mine for the icon bumps but I’m not sure how well I like them.

im running stock bump stops, but I had the Icon leafs and they were too soft. I’m on the OME 2.2 springs now and it’s totally different. I’ve thought about bump stops to keep the springs happy.

@TerraMechE @Colo_Ranger @20XLRangerFraptor @APG i went today to apg. Man theyre awesome people. Several of the theories ive had that several people have said couldnt be done. Yes a m210 from a bronco will bolt up. There is a bracket the needs to be flipped. If youre going to retain stock width will need to get some rcv axle, but if you go with bronco width you should be able to use standard axles. They said no front driveshaft was required just axles. Now with that being said doing a full bronco swap or bronco long travel on a ranger should be pretty straight forward. I purchased theyre bronco take off parts a set of upper and lowers for a bronco. I will be saving to buy a m210 and regear for rear to do full mid travel until i decide to build my bronco width long travel set up since that would be very expensive just on axles will be a 2k purchase.o and from what i was told theyre pretty much no longer focusing on ranger, and shifted theyre attention to the Bronco.

I’m definitely interested in the LCA and UCA from the bronco and what it takes to make it fit. Can’t wait to watch your journey.

@TerraMechE was the pioneer in that. Now i think with all the information gathered most people should feel comfortable with gathering parts. Now my restriction is money lol.

That’s very nice to hear!!! I figured they were close enough to make work but any time I commented on a company online they would make it sound like it wouldn’t work. If you don’t mind how much did you get the take offs from them? I’ve been lightly searching for some myself but kept getting scammers messaging me. I would like to do some bronco arms until I get full long travel!!

Thank you. ???

I'm now trying to install the auto folding mirrors with the module from Trac Electronics but unfortunately not having much luck. Mirrors don't seem to fold at all while having the module connected, and the windows aren't closing via one touch.
