Congrats! Be sure to post some pics, we like to see proof
I definitely will! Bringing her in on Monday to get started. I’m looking to wheels and tires too but I’m a little picky.. Specifically looking for the Venomrex 601’s in Mystic black (Would take 602s as well) Spoke to a rep directly from there and apparently they are on back order for months. Anybody know of someone selling a pair? I’d be looking to sell my stock set up that has 14k miles on it.

New air filter. Washed the air box and snorkel. Wish Ford made the air box easy to remove.

Spent some time mounting my air horn under the snorkel.

There’s a hole in the frame - perfect for mounting. Just used a longer screw and fender washers.

Removed the original horn and rerouted the wires so they’re out of sight.

Can you post a picture of her and you reroute the horn and wires too? Did you do this so thieves can’t cut the wires?

I will post pics of when it’s all wired up.

Yes I want to make it hard on the f u ckers. Hopefully, when they see the missing horn and the Ravelco sticker and plug, that will be a message for them to F U CK OFF.

Nice. I just installed this at the latch and used red lock tight on the bolts

I wired the horn up today. I rerouted the wires back into the engine bay. I used a relay with the hot wire from the horn switch triggering the relay. It sounds like a truck now.

Original horn wire.

I had a Hella harness that I canibalized to wire everything up.

Had my stabilizer links replaced under warranty this morning. Of course there's a 2 door bronco badlands on the lot with the sasquatch package and the millennial theft deterrent option. It was ordered for someone, but they may not be able to buy it now. Would love to have it. Also, there's this:

As of now, I'm third on the list for purchasing. I think this dealership is trying to financially ruin me, lol.
