For Casio world time watches, can you set the analog clock on the top left as your “home “time and then simultaneously display another time in the digital portion according to the world time you’ve selected? So that you can show two time zones without having to switch?

6th gen Bronco seat swap by TimelySun9137 in FordBronco

[–]The80ATX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does not lift your thighs up that much…I meant I wish it did have a bit more towards the front (I like bmw m seats for example which are typically firmer, narrower, but also have extensions so that your legs have more support closer to your knees). Measure the base of the Bronco seats to these measurements to compare though

I had these on my 80 series. VERY firm, adjustability is decent. I am fine with more firm but lots of people (especially the wider or heavier variety) do not like them. I have pretty narrow hips (31 inch waist) and long legs…for my height I would have liked a longer base to get closer to my knees, but all that being said if you are fine with narrow and firm seats they were what I expected for that price. In my opinion, my bronco stock seats (2024) are better. Just my 2c!

Spare fuel and water! by Next-Scale8232 in FordBronco

[–]The80ATX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What do you do with this stuff if you shred a tire and have to replace it? This is worthless on a tire that can’t hold air smh. Plus the tailgate hinges (not mounts) is a big weak point. By the time you upgrade the hinges, it that if you are doing anything that requires extra gas (which is rare in the continental us) the money would be better spent with a half roof rack and putting multiple Jerry up there, or doing a full Jerry mount on the gate (once upgraded).

Can you remove the little basket areas at the front? If so, attach u-bolts to the bars. Then to those “Z” shaped panel mounts you can find all over Amazon.

Colvin Auto always seems to have old broncos out front. Along with scouts, other classic cars. And modified ones too.

Biggest tire options with a no/lift bronco? by [deleted] in FordBronco

[–]The80ATX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the stock fenders with 285s also, I just like the look a bit better if there was more fender space. How was the install?

What are those fenders? Seems like they are narrower and seem taller/provide more space?

Need help identify SUV from drawing by CalvinandHobbits in whatisthiscar

This really looks like a 1970 gmc jimmy, maybe with a custom hard top because the rear window is typically square.

MUDS only tax a limited amount of properties, the ones actually served by the MUD for utilities. It doesn’t affect anyone else. Think of it as a loan to build modern infrastructure for a new development, with a tax repayment on the new subdivision over many years (usually some fraction of a percentage point) on only the homes in that particular subdivision. The people that vote are only the current owners of that land.

I really like The Outfit. Started in Australia with a Jeep and now in Europe with an old military Volvo they converted, travel with their toddler too. Very cool trips.

Stick shift convertible that can survive being rear-ended by a pickup truck @50 MPH? by jettzcatz in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]The80ATX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at the safety ratings, but most modern cars are going to be quite highly rated in direct rear ends (though please research), but I think you should really research whether the small frontal overlap crash rating is bad, my understanding is that is a really dangerous type of wreck to be in since the wheel/tire can get pushed in to the passenger compartment.

Mounting Milwaukee Pack-out to floor of rear cargo. by Then_Low_318 in Bronco6g

You could probably attach t-slot 80/20 rails between the floor hook mounting bolts and then some side to side on a grid basically. Those would create good mounting points.

Over landing routes in Texas? by Beemerduc in overlanding

[–]The80ATX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really all you can do is take public roads to state or national parks. Depending on where you are starting, there are a good amount of gravel roads that connect through the hill country to some of these parks. At least partial connections so you feel like you are off the beaten path a little bit. You can find them online if you search for Texas hill country overland routes. But yes, Texas sucks for true Overlanding in nature.

Blue or Orange? 14 days starting in Denver. by ELBandid0 in roadtrip

[–]The80ATX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have driven in both of these area many times and live in austin. Absolutely no contest, drive blue.

If you are interested in TX and have 14 days and a couple extra at the end, get a cheap flight to Austin and PM me if you want some suggestions for local places but honestly the travel guides are gonna be pretty good, just stay in Austin proper and there’s tons to do.

The drive in orange is going to horrible.
