Looks good! Do you know the offset of the Bronco wheels?Story is (mostly) complete. Got the wheels mounted - happy with the new look and stance:
Ordered some black lugs from Stage3 that'll I'll swap the chrome ones out for. Now I just need to figure out a black center cap to purchase.
Based on limited research on the Bronco6G forums I believe it's the same exact offset as the stock ranger wheels (+55). I can tell you that after mounting the wheels I would believe that. Since it was the same diameter width tire (265) the tire looks to be in the same spot as the stock wheels/tires.
I'm with you here - had the ford dealer install mine as well. I generally like to DIY but for a couple hundred bucks of labor I gladly let them mess with it. Plus the install was likely cleaner than I would be able to muster
Did they wire in the emergency braking?
not as flashy as some awesome other stuff on this thread, but I got the Ford Accessory trailer brake controller installed.
The dealership installed it, and I paid for the labor on Ford’s accessory website with a 20% discount. I think the labor was capped at $250. Honestly ended up being a steal because the tech wired it backwards on the first try (dealer had never installed this before). So my brake lights were always on and they turned off when pressing the brake lol. So they figured out the problem and fixed it.
I’m glad I didn’t install this. The process sounded like a huge pain.
Exactly my thinking as well!I'm with you here - had the ford dealer install mine as well. I generally like to DIY but for a couple hundred bucks of labor I gladly let them mess with it. Plus the install was likely cleaner than I would be able to muster
Good question. I didn’t ask, I just assumed they did. That’s the whole reason to go with Ford’s kit and it’s advertised that way in the product description. Your question makes me nervous that I didn’t ask hahaha
I'm going the same route. Ordered on Friday.

Might be a good thing to verify... As that would be just about the only reason to have someone else do it...

Is it just me or does it look like they installed the control blindfolded?

Yeah I asked them to put it in a different spot in the cab. They went for the easier to access spot (from a wiring perspective) that visually isn’t all that appealing. It’s down and out of the way by my left knee tho, so overall it’s very functional. Ah well.
That's a bummer.
