I’ve have spent a fair amount of time in, around, under, as well as wheeling in an original bronco. Short of more detailed pics, I am calling BS and believe the reporter made an error or doesn’t understand vehicle construction. I’d have to see a hole in the floorboard to believe that honestly...

On my MX regen normally happens during use and I normally don’t notice it right away (I am usually looking where going and behind me and have muffs or earplugs in - the odor is what tips me off versus the lights/beeps). I would not let that affect my decision of the correct size machine for my...

We’ve were down at the beach and finally got home Friday. Pups had a big time catching a few waves and playing pitch and catch with the sand. They dig it just about as fast as the tide smoothed it over.

Yard was getting shaggy so I got a mowing and then I put the waste to the compost pile and gave it a turn. (I don’t think the pallets have much time left.)

I also bought a 511 design for my B through Messicks (at least I think that is who manufactured it?) and I am happy with that (I prefer Lown on the Mx though…I understand that doesn’t help now). I guess that 511 design/messicks would be next on my list.

Oops…sorry all. 🫣 (good catch @Elliott in GA )

I had really good experience with Lown. They were very responsive by phone and email in my experience and I am happy with the product. The would buy from them again if I need another guard. (I’d recommend consider the chin guard and chain bucket as a set if purchasing)...

You get that too?…it still makes me blush every time someone calls me a hotmail😉. But I can’t turn this off 😂

Good day…They can also help you steer…not just for tighter turns but if you are sliding or maybe front end is unweighted, or maybe your back end is stepping out and want to pull it back…anyway they can help you steer when/if need to. I would mention to be careful using them on a hill…they can...

I just checked the app on my phone for Zilla, and it said the recall for mine was issued in March 2026. I rarely look at the app. I guess it wasn’t figured out for the 26s at least not at my born on date. I wonder will they have to actually come and take the vehicle into the shop or can it be...

Again I am not the manual nor do I offer a warranty to others. I tend to agree with @Hugo Habicht regarding the design/durability of the legs. In my uses it believe handling and ride is the higher risk, but I don’t know that to be true. for me it’s not reasonable to adjust the amount of tire...

Good day. I tend to to agree with that, excepting when backup in use and the supports / legs lowered and the rear end is off the ground. At that point the rear axle:legs would be carrying the weight Of the tire, wheel, ballast, etc. I still don’t know if that is the reason, but I would say it...

Yes, I have one (I don’t remember the brand but it looks very similar) and have used it. I have not used it much since I got a pallet jack though. As I recall it’s one of those things that when you attach it it would be helpful to have an extra hand or two…sort of awkward and not really light...

Good day. 1. Do you know what caused the damage to the tire? 2. Tire damage aside, have you been happy with the R4s? I’d probably take to a tractor tire repair shop, unless you have a farm / in field repair service that would stop by and see how severe the damage is…is it possible that it’s...

Good day. i am not the manual, but I think always important to check the manual. that being said, as I recall (I don’t have manual with me or I would check), I believe there was a note that not to use ballast if adding a BH…I think I read and checked that, but I would not bet on my memory. I...
