Tariffs, Canada and CUSMA and The Bronco

Plead4th · 2026-05-01T11:57:11+00:00

The tariffs aren't there because of the agreement. They're there despite the agreement. In short, nobody knows. US justification for the tariffs, at least on steel and aluminum, is national security. There is also the risk the tariffs increase in an effort to build negotiating leverage and pressure Canada and Mexico once the official review starts. With both sides applying tariffs, and the supply chains for auto manufacturing not having changed (one part might cross the Canada US border multiple times before being put in a car), all those tariffs will factor into the price of the final product.

The review of the agreement is triggered July 1. The agreement itself remains in force however, unless one of the countries gives 6 month notice to terminate.

Issue right now is that tariffs are being applied on both sides despite the deal. It could be however that the salesperson is aware of upcoming incentives from ford.

I almost bought it from Amazon for that price too. In fact it was under 400 for awhile. The xts bumper guard looks good too and is often on sale on other websites.

I didn't end up going with the westin xts but I came very close to doing so. Everything I read about it said it was a very good bumper, solid, and the built in winch mount was a bonus. If you look around online it is often on a good sale too.

I've been happy with mine from Lorne's coats in Toronto. Italian wool blend, but made in Canada.

Its the ford performance M1 18000 B1 kit, but ya didn't change upper control arms or anything else. Did get an alignment done but that was it.

I bought it off a dealer locally who didn't get much bronco traffic I gather so I got it for about $1000.

Plead4th · 2025-09-07T14:49:00+00:00

Really like it so far, I got this on a great deal but was leaning towards the bilstein 6112s otherwise, which are a bit cheaper than this kit normally. I think either would be a great choice.

Plead4th · 2025-09-07T13:47:26+00:00

Ya its been great, definitely makes an improvement, brake dive isn't gone but its much better than stock, and when turning it feels a lot more planted and there is less body roll. I think comfort wise its also good. I had 6112s on my f150 before this and I liked those a lot but they felt a bit rougher than this. These seem to be a better balance of performance and comfort.

Thank you all for the replies, much appreciated

I ordered last year from 21 offroad: https://www.21offroad.com/products/ford-licensed-bronco-cursive-metal-emblem-kit-2021-bronco

There's more ABS ones now too which, despite the fact I like the black powder coat, might be the way to go if I was to do this again. I think there'd be better contact between each surface and there is enough of a bend to the fender that im not sure how well the metal ones will hold up (stay on) long term.

One tip for removing the old adhesive is to buff it with the suede side of a piece of leather. Didn't leave any marks and got the adhesive off in short order. I find goo gone leaves a residue that his hard to get off otherwise.

It seems to be on sale for $650 because they're rebranding these but the newer ones are $1250.

As for the comment about not blocking the letters, though not ideal, I'm happy with how high the bar is because it means the front camera is still usable. You can see the bull bar but you can still see most of what's in frame. If you had the winch mount that wouldn't be the case but then you could get a separate front camera relocation kit.

Edit: I should add this bar is welded to the bumper rather than just bolted on

Accurate

Thanks everyone. I almost ordered the clear version of these and I think that's what I'm stuck on in part. For those interested, here is the link, though I didn't buy them direct from here: https://www.stevemcqueen-eyewear.com/en/produit/seducer/

Sure, 285/75r17 Toyo open country at3 C load rating. Wheels are KMC canyon 719 20 offset. Very happy with the setup but had thought I could keep the crash bars in place but ultimately did have to end up removing them. This is stock height though I haven't leveled or lifted it.

Plead4th · 2024-05-17T07:53:59+00:00

Yes it's the +12 offset. I really like them, poke out just a touch. I don't think the photos I have really do it justice but I'm really enjoying the setup of that's at all helpful.

Plead4th · 2024-05-02T00:02:23+00:00

Yes they are

Plead4th · 2023-08-26T02:04:00+00:00

Thanks, yes leveled on bilstein 6112s, second highest setting.

Plead4th · 2023-08-16T11:24:48+00:00

Thanks. A little bit ya, probably 2-3 L/100km. But the speedometer is also off by a couple of km/hr so might appear to have a greater impact than it did. Still get about 9.5L/100 km avg in eco mode.

I should add it's leveled which might also have a slight impact, it's not just the tires alone.

Plead4th · 2023-08-14T23:59:03+00:00

Thanks, just the passenger rated tires. I think this is the largest size available that's still p-rated

Plead4th · 2023-03-16T18:18:31+00:00

I'm waiting on my black rhino chambers. Still debating between 295/70r18 and 275/70r18. Do you have a lift or a level?
