Bronco Raptor Ultimate Overland Build: Update 1: Starting Our Modifications

[@tedguerrero713]

Good call on wrapping fenders. It ties the whole profile of the vehicle together. Looks badass!

[@FiveAngelsOutdoor]

Thanks for the compliment and thanks for watching! Totally agree, ties it all together (and offers a little protection 😀)

How much weight can that spare tire storage carrier hold? At some point it hurts the door hinges right?

[@FiveAngelsOutdoor]

It comes stock with an improved factory brace built for the Raptor considering the 37” inch tire. I don’t keep much up there unless I am on a trip. The rack is great for firewood. BroncBuster does make some heavy duty hinges, if I feel the need to replace.

[@thegreatlakestrucker]

I've seen the roof rack on other Broncos that you have on yours. It looks flimsy. How is it holding up for you. What is the weight rating capacity on it?

[@FiveAngelsOutdoor]

This is the TrailRax TRMR. It really is a great rack. I did a lot of research. Not flimsy at all. There is a great 90 degree bend on the side rails for added strength, and with the PaxRax option, it is anchored o to the body under the hard top. It is rated at 800lbs static and 300lbs dynamic, so plenty good for what we use it for.

[@paleh0rse]

Wondering why Trailrax doesn't include black hardware for the Pak Rax to match the black hardware they shipped with the main roof rack. That annoys me. It's the little things...lol

[@FiveAngelsOutdoor]

Yeah. Agree! It is the little things for sure. It is a nice rack. The other thing that is annoying is that the crossbars don’t have the cutout to load the track nuts into, which makes it a pain to move things around on the rack. Having to unbolt the crossbar sucks.

[@paleh0rse]

@@FiveAngelsOutdoor - ok, I'm ordering the same rack, so that's good info. Took me a minute to figure out what you meant, but I get it now. I've seen similar cutouts/notches in other bars. Surprised they didn't include them.

[@FiveAngelsOutdoor]

Yeah. My Prinsu had them on my old rig. Miss for sure.

[@gregm7991]

Looks great. Awesome wrap. Not a fan of the silver beauty rings on the wheels.

[@FiveAngelsOutdoor]

Thanks for watching!!!! Not beauty rings. Those are true Ford Performance beadlocks rings. Black would have been cool, but anything painted will get scratched in the trail. The aluminum should hide those scratches and scrapes.

[@victorruiz4393]

Awesome ride. Can you please tell me what color is the tire platform? is it textured black?

[@FiveAngelsOutdoor]

Yes. It is powder coated a textured black. They do offer in raw aluminum or other options, as well. Here is the link: americanadventurelab.com/product/mass-spare-tire-platform-stp/

[@victorruiz4393]

@@FiveAngelsOutdoor thank you so much . Awesome build btw

[@keithmccloud6722]

How is it with no air in the seats in Florida?

[@FiveAngelsOutdoor]

Yeah, AC seats sure would be nice, but in the end, it is not too bad. The air does blow really cold overall.

[@k1LLaak]

Any sagging caused by the extra weight on the hard tops? Only asking cause RCI customers are seeing this issue

[@FiveAngelsOutdoor]

The Raptor is designed to only come with the hard top. Stock there was definitely no issue at all. That being said, I am adding additional weight to the rig, so we will see once it is all said and done.

[@Mike77902]

Is the wind noise more now with the roof rail?

[@FiveAngelsOutdoor]

There is not more noise. It works out well!!
