    Whiteline bushings

    All of my bushings are energy suspension poly and they've performed great for ~25k mi so far. I can't speak to their longevity since the factory ones will last 20+ years, but my experience has been positive so far. But if mtbtim recommends OEM, so thats probably a good way to go.

    Custom front bumper build

    Killer tube work! I like the mounting points, they look very well positioned. Came out super clean.

    Anyone done LC Springs + Airbags?

    I've got the Sonoran Steel 1.2 with the 7.5 wrap coils in the rear. They're already pretty stiff, it handles great for a lifted truck. I hauled a packed 6x10 uhaul recently and it didn't squat past parallel. My 2 cents is avoid the complexity and cost of the airbags, the LC coils and black...

    Congrats! Third gen best gen... I've put mine through ungodly amounts of punishment and then driven 400 miles home on the highway with 1 finger steering. Can't beat that

    What do you guys think of the new Ford Bronco??

    I appreciate that they're offering some serious equipment from the factory, with the 2.7 ecoboost FF/RR lockers, 35's, etc. and I do like that the styling takes some very obvious cues from el originale bronco. I'm not gonna buy one, but my brother has one reserved, so it'll be interesting to...

    Steering Column Rattle / Clunk

    I had this same issue on my 96 too. I had some other miscellaneous alignment problems (which may or may not have been from sliding the front wheel into a curb doing a j turn on ice) which resulted in me replacing a lot under the truck: inner & outer TRE's, steering rack (w/ poly bushings), LCA...

    Which 3rd Gens Came With Lumbar?

    I just got a junkyard seat to use the foam on my 96 limited. Junkyard seat was from an SR5 -- and it had manual lumbar adjuster. Weird, my stock LTD seat had the power lumbar support. Maybe it was just an option separate from the ltd package? I ended up using the manual adjuster seat frame when...

    Led interior lights ??

    Yeah, just replace the bulbs. I got mine from VLEDS They've got a great product selector based on vehicle. If I were to do it again, I'd probably go with the panel type swap instead of the bulb-sized led replacement. They're not bad, but I wouldn't have minded brighter. On a side note, if you...

    VSV at Charcoal Canister: Good or Bad?

    I've been getting the P0446 on my '96. I just check to make sure its the same code and then clear it. But, mine is a little rough around the edges already so YMMV. Interesting idea with a possible VSV failure though... Bump
