North to Alaska: Road-tripping the Bronco 4500mi+ Across the Country! [Part 1]

[@denisem1093]

Matt from Demolition Ranch sent me here.... Watched the build of the Bronco and he did a great job on the rebuild. It was great to see you and the family enjoy the heck out the bronco. Safe travels. Looking forward to seeing the road trip.

[@Ethan_Amendt.509]

Same here

[@mandasmessofmiscellany5269]

same same :D

[@JerryDLTN]

YT recommended this to me. I don't remember Matt saying he had a channel and I thought "Hey, that looks familiar".

[@DemolitiaGrunt87]

I saw the bronco in the thumbnail and thought it looked familiar

[@Henry3rdofhisname]

Matt is a good hearted guy to fix the truck up and give it back to the lil brother!!

[@MrNiccholas]

Here from Demolition Ranch!

[@fun2916]

Thanks to Matt at Demolition Ranch for sending me here. Great video

[@charlesmckeehan9205]

Dude You're about to get a flood of subscribers I know I've been watching this thing from start to finish and the dash cluster and that thing is amazing I literally had to redo this comment because I was on the wrong account LOL

[@mymarsrobot40]

also from matt's channel. glad you decided to document the road trip.

[@mrbigw100]

July 2017 to May 2022 the evolution of the bronco long one but a good one

[@MrBgyfz450]

Demolitia here I'm so glad your showing us your journey!

[@georgejulien3286]

I just came here from demo ranch obviously but my next favorite videos are Alaskan road trip vids. I can’t wait to see this trip, cheers from here in BC 🇨🇦

[@charlesmckeehan9205]

I hope Matt gave you that handwritten note that he found it was a list of all the things Tyler wanted to do the truck

[@santhony1978]

Oh cool! I watched everything about the Bronco on Matt's channel as it was happening. I didn't know you were posting videos of the trip. Definitely going to watch.

[@DaysofPainandVictory]

Flexes pretty dang good! Excited to watch this trip!

[@coryskistad4861]

Congrats bro Matt is is a stand up dude Glad to see the right thing was done

[@lcampbe7]

Came over from Demo, loved watching the build and look forward to this series.

[@lonestarr673]

I started following matt years ago because of this bronco. I hope you record all the fun you have in it. Youre about to get alot of followers hahaha

[@brandonscott2851]

everytime I see this bronco it makes me miss mine I hope you enjoy every minute you can in her shes a awesome ride with awesome history

[@WesternReloader]

Thanks for posting.

[@calvinh.8882]

I lost my younger brother and his daughter/my niece game me his truck. It's a 2001 SVT Lightning. I was kinda shocked and very thankful. It means the world to me. I've been watching Matt for years so I've seen the Bronco story from start until now. It's a sweet truck, It's awesome to see you out enjoying it, and now all it needs is at least a rear locker and better header gaskets. The only downfall with most headers is they tend to get exhaust leaks often. lol.

[@TimfromAlabama]

Yeah, you definitely need some lockers. Still, Matt doing what he did to the Bronco...he's 1 in a trillion. Much respect to him. Safe travels. I'll keep up with you along the way. Another subbie here to a guy who loves offroading his vehicle and not just a pavement packer. We're a slowly dying breed in most places now. Take care.

[@1tojo]

I took that drive but from Houston to Fairbanks 4 years ago. Take your time and enjoy the ride

[@trentstermotorcycle]

Was nice to meet y’all there! Was cool see bronco in person! Can’t wait see your whole trip!

[@VoslickZ]

Likewise! Thanks for stopping by.

[@nelchinanoble]

Thanks for sharing Forrest. I was hoping you’d document this trip.

[@007twm]

I followed you over from Demolition Ranch. This ought to be an interesting adventure. Good luck.

[@rebeccaamey3027]

I have come over from Matt's KZbin channel but would like to see all your adventures so far looks like fun.

[@jasonmurphy5054]

Safe travels.

[@johnraygun9868]

nice seeing that thing being used. I tried getting stationed in Alaska and Germany but after 21 years active army combat medic it was always Iraq, Honduras and Korea :D have a safe trip!!

[@FullSpectrumWarrior]

I wish I had a bronco

[@leed7951]

I got a KZbin notification... sweet. Good luck and God speed brother

[@richardhardy870]

New sub, sent by Matt also . I am so glad to see you get your brothers truck , enjoy it and have a blast in it ! Safe travels and looking forward to more videos .

[@a.perkins89]

I hope you leave the body paint the way it is. I loved Matt's reason for not painting it.

[@travisanderson4263]

FYI, Matt kept talking about limited slip ect. That thing has no lockers. Meaning each wheel is fee to spin independently. If the front springs don’t loosen up over time, you’ll probably need a softer spring rate. Praying for safe travels on your journey brother!! 🙏

[@YrocNamwob]

Get ready for the flood of subscribers about to hit your channel; aka "Matt sent me"😂

[@Tanks-Link]

It looks like it will be an interesting one might want to stop and get air compressor so when you get a dicey spots you can air down the tire pressure you’ll be surprised how much more traction you’ll get.

[@NWoutdoorsman]

Sounds like a exhaust leak or hopefully not a lifter tick. It might just be the design of the header but it would drive me crazy for 4500 miles

[@VoslickZ]

It sounds like an exhaust leak to us too, but I’ve tightened the flanges on both headers and no change. Everything else is welded.

[@NWoutdoorsman]

@@VoslickZ I remember a buddy of mine had some tri y headers on his small block Chevy and no matter what they sounded like they had an exhaust leak.

[@killer0034]

@@VoslickZ Matt had an issue with the first exhaust from the shop wouldn't surprise me if a manifold/header was cracked or bad gaskets. also would look into a front dif locker or lsd

[@chrs-kr8kc]

i was thinking it was exhaust leak or something along those lines,and it would drive insane too lol

[@alexmorris0991]

Here's to hoping it's exhaust and safe travels. Enjoy the ALCAN!

[@jjansen987]

Glad your documenting your journey!

[@sickstringbender1364]

Does it have an exhaust leak? You might want to look at the collector gaskets and look for cracks in the header tubes.

[@monabale8263]

8:28; what's in the tanks?

[@captain_coleton]

Came here from Demo

[@redoakcircleyount]

Didn't realize you were gonna rock crawl all the way to Alaska 😂😂

[@tylermedearis3815]

Any idea on which museum that dc-6 is headed to? Hope you make it all the way to Alaska with no serious issues.

[@VoslickZ]

Not sure, but the pilots said St. George, Utah. So somewhere local to there I’d imagine

[@tylermedearis3815]

That's awesome. I'm from Montana, but i was just at that museum a few months ago.

[@JerryDLTN]

That truck reminds me of Chuck Norris' truck in Lone Wolf McQuade

[@dustinmittel348]

Is that an exhaust leak or lifter tick

[@jeffreyjohnston6843]

is that mole on the ceiling or did someone throw up in it .have you considered paint

[@adamhowe8499]

if you use low range while wheeling its alot easier on the trans and torque converter

[@earlarthur9378]

Was the ECM programmed with your tire size do you know? If not you'll have to calculate for those tires...

[@pgg0024]

Depending which route you take into Canada maybe I'll see you.

[@antonjanssen5977]

Is that an exhaust leak I hear????

[@Scott_G]

Wow, what does your sister do? Looks like she's doing really well for herself to have those rides.

[@peytonc7598]

is that ticking lifter or is it just how that engine sounds

[@snivesz32]

You’d be much happier with softer springs in the front.

[@melindaortiz9741]

💯

[@Lunch_box]

Oh shit your demos friend...

[@capcut_shorts582]

Matt sent me. Watch the building of this ride.

[@OliG-py1dx]

Might have a manifold gasket leak.

[@nunyabiz8708]

Yea let's pluck up the bronco so it brakes down and leaves you stranded. Makes sence.

[@sykwookiee]

You really should heed your own advice...and it's "breaks" down... it's his Bronco and his adventure... soooo...
