The last time our Jeep Wrangler was challenged by this new Ford Bronco, it broke a steering rack almost instantly on the trail! But now it's back, it's fixed, and it wants to see if it can finally follow our Jeep through the off road trail known as the Maze! Will it rock crawl? Or will it break again?
Hope you all enjoy the video!

The Bronco actually did Great! However, He needs to switch Tires, to the same ones you all are running. Once done, I think he’d get along just as good as the rest of the Team did. Tires are Everything in this application.
The one and only part that the tires worked well was the giant crack. They were so wide and the side knobs so pronounced, that it really worked well for him. Everywhere else, they struggled.
Correct me if I’m wrong but those look like mud boggers
@@THEpicND M/T BAJA PRO X... Mud Scoops for added cleaning power Yes they
have mud in mind.
Yes tires are vehicle specific , conditions are tire specific , possibly a different tire choice would stop the hopping , Those Large M/T's may need a high pressure contact patch (heavier rig) or beadlock them and run at 5 psi. Practice makes perfect Tyler did good.
Those tires suck in moab..sidewall knobs slip off walls all time and just not grippy on slick rock..
Considering how new THIS model Bronco is , they are doing great off-road. Give it few more years and more aftermarket support , it'll be a beast.
And it's a manual damn some respect for that guy for pushing the limits with such a new chassis
That Bronco was impressive! One thing you got to remember is even though those rigs are comparable, Kevin and Brittany have had a lot longer to iron out the kinks and learn their rig. To even keep up with them on such a new platform is worthy of at least a tie in my book!
They have another video where some one brings a lifted and bigger tire bronco (he's with ford racing I think) and they remind us. The Step Child, prob has well over 100K of upgrades in it, it's not your typical every day driver, it's built to rock crawl.
Yeah and there is millions of jeeps to learn from this is a new vehicle kinks are goonna need to be worked out for sures!
For the minor mods that are done to the bronco so far, it is amazing. Ford could easily beef up the steering rack to a heavy duty setup, more travel from the front suspension and the new bronco would be just fine with heavily modded jeeps. Stock for stock the bronco has shocked many.
I think the advancements for four wheeling now that jeep has competition will benefit and grow the sport significantly. I say the step child won with that show down with the amazing Hemi Growl, but the Ford was impressive.
Let me add too; Competitive pricing too. Good for me, good for you.
The StepChild's passengers face on the first obstacle was PRICELESS!!! Kevin's driving ability really is incredible and hats off to the Bronco for keeping up with no malfunctions. There were a couple of times when I thought the Broncos IFS was going to be its achilles heel but it pulled through.Thanks again for the all the rad rock porn! See you next time!
A better test between a Bronco and the Stepchild will be when you get your own Bronco. It will have similar tires and same driver. The Bronco in this test had knobby tires and looked like it had some traction issues compared with the Stepchild.
The gentleman who was doing the spotting was impressive. Calm and clear all the time.
Another awesome video!! Thank you again for showing Tyler and his family (and Brendan!) a good time. We really appreciate it
Nice to see you on RUclips too 🤙
Well done Val! you built a pretty sick rig
@@wildhorses4x4 I’ll have to check out y’all’s videos. And thanks we’re still pretty new to RUclips
I was wondering why the bronco looked like it was having trouble at times.Then realized it was bolt action. Bad ass, if that thing was an auto I bet you would have substantially easier time. Bad ass nonetheless
Yeah I was thinking the same time about how smooth it would have been with the Auto.
I was thinking the same thing, and if he has the manual he has the 4 cyl engine aswell, I have the 2.7 6 cyl and its an automatic and it is super smooth crawling. Love manuals but they are a little rough to crawl with .
I also think it is the tire choice too. Those aren't real the best for slick rock. Even air down they look like they were having a hard time getting traction.
Fords killing it with the bronco. For the bronco being a new build and to give jeeps the challenge it gives.. is a testimony to the broncos build and engineering.
Bronco did great! I think his tires are less conducive to Utah’s dry rock as well which caused him to lose traction at times. Props to him for pulling everything he possibly can out of that vehicle.
Honestly impressive he’s doing all that with a 4cyl and 40s !!! Can’t wait to see the aftermarket catch up with these things. Just needs more guys like him bashing these things proving to companies that theirs a market for it.
It's a manual too
@@Reecesavage-Alwayswin really?
@@mnfishing4194 Yeah
Now I've gotta know how he fixes that rack. I'm also impressed the rest of the drivetrain can handle wheel hopping and 40's!
That trail is sick! My truck wouldn't make it through some of that stuff, too long, but it sure looks fun.
Idk If my ranger would make it either, I don't think I have the clearance with my 3 inch lift
The most impressive part to me is that it's doing that well with a manual. There would be a lot less bucking if it was an auto.
The Jeep in the lead was also a manual. There's a lot less bucking when you are geared correctly and you know how to drive.
@@jakeweber9787 Stepchild is a 8 speed auto transmission.
@@wheelerk2012 point still stands
@@wheelerk2012 Read what I wrote again. The Jeep in the lead. I did not say the Step Child.
The Bronco has the stock Tcase/low gear in it also?
HoLEE CRAP! This was insane, way cool! photos and videos were so awesome. To the drivers, nothin but props!! Great Job, 👍
Damn Brittany! Your the best! Your on the road with Kevin driving your own Bronco home through a severe storm and still have time to edit this video and post it for us to enjoy! Happy and safe Trails to both of you!
I was editing IN THE STORM. 🤣🤣🤣
@@LiteBrite That's why I said your the best! Are you both going to make the I70 through of divert to another route.
Ya we took farm roads
Yup, she's a 24hr good time.
Considering it is a new pretty untested platform wheeling with a jeep that the only stock stuff is the body and frame. I think it did amazing.
Just give the Bronco another 12 months for aftermarket parts to catch up. Love your videos by the way one of the best off road channels.
Hell, give it about 5 years and we'll probably see full replacement front frame sections(cut & replace) with a custom IFS geometry, 9" center, all the goodies!
@@RyTrapp0 Maybe a bolt-in SFA conversion kit?
@@philipjooste9075 There will never be a bolt on conversion kit, as there are no points to attach four link pivots on the bronco's frame. Gonna have to locate and weld tabs at the very least. I'd rather see long travel IFS anyway, because I'd have just kept driving my jeep if I wanted to dump money into a SFA.
Just give it another 12 months and I might just get the July 2020 Badlands reservation I have on order :(
Wow. That Bronco was pushed to its absolute limits. I am sure they are still learning about what works on it so it will only get better better from here! It hung in there with the Step Child which has to be one of the more dialed rock crawling jeeps in history.
Wow! Seriously impressed! I guess I need to back off the Bronco a lil bit now...
"Use that equipment you paid for!" That was something the mechanic that built my YJ many years ago used to say whenever someone forgot to engage their front and rear ARB lockers. Seemed appropriate on a couple occasions here. 😉
Spotting is such a valuable skill to have with these tough trails. Amazing work!
Seans Lj still has my heart & takes home the win all day long😎
It is absolutely sexy and Sean can definitely drive it well.
Such a cool Bronco build, nice to see it but would love a solid axle version. also your spotter was 10/10! big respect.
So far the IFS is totally strong enough, its just the rack that Ferd is working on/solved coming soon. Great that this OE locked IFS is doing all this stuff bone stock on 40s. Once Ferd intro's the better rack it will be game ON.
@@05EVORS Agreed, actually in the first obstacle you could see the IFS advantage as the passenger side wheel drooped to control the decent. Also the Jeeps also have steering issues, all be it solved with a PSC.
Give it a few years and everyone will have Dana 60s front and rear on their Broncos.
It's a cheap setup too. If I'm not mistaken it's still mostly stock suspension with body lift, wheel spacers, the bushing for the rack and tie rods?
Mad respect to the bronco driver mastering the third pedal while getting over all the obstacles, he made it look easy! Seems like all he needs is a grippier tire compound.
My Bronco Badlands Sasquatch got to the dealership today!! I can't wait to get behind the wheel tomorrow, videos like this are getting me pumped up!!!
This is as good as it gets let's go Litebrite!!!
I Love the Bronco vs. Wrangler thingy rivalry it's all in fun and look how it will grow the Lite Brite Universe.!!!
Great vid! You should name the last "obstacle" the "Kevin Option" for everyone to try going out blindfolded!
Thanks for sharing : )
Kevin you are one hell of a good driver.
Go Bronco! Nice to see what it can do. The aftermarket will eventually catch up, but it takes folks like this to blaze the trails first.
Wow!!! This was worth waiting a month or two but It’s awesome that y’all came through way way sooner. Definitely impressed with the bronco 🙌🏼
Mad props to Broncobuster!! Awesome video as always guys.
Aggressive wheel offset combined with them big tires. Looks great but is putting a lot of load on the steering rack. Drop either tire size or offset and it could hold up much better. Seems like they found a way for more strength though.
Loved the 2 part series with the Bronco and the awesome Jeeps. This is going to be a busy winter for some of us to get our Bronco built for the upcoming season. I’m content to going to a solid 37” setup for my build and hope the aftermarket can deliver the goods this winter.
My family is getting one as well. We want 37 and plan on wheeling ours
I'm not even going to bother changing tire size until I see a stronger steering solution on the market. Even with 35's those tie rods look pitiful.
@@jimferguson602 you guys will love it. I’ve taken mine to Moab and all over Colorado before the seasonal closures.
Awesome! Glad he got the steering fixed, I knew this thing was going to be able to hang. I love watching the IFS work on it, very impressive range of travel for a stock setup. I wish my 4Runner IFS worked remotely that well.
At first I was thinking "why does the auto act like its in neutral when he lets off the gas?" Then I realized it was the 7sp Manual, which is super cool. Curious as to what he fixed in the steering.
i think the tires the Bronco has on it, is making it work harder then it needs too. Those Nittos seem like they just have way more grip and bite to them.
That. Was. Amazing! Some of the best rock crawling I have ever seen. I want to drive like Kevin when I grow up. Lol!
Thank you, Lite Brite, another great video, and the Bronco came through with flying colors, and I don't see the haters this time. Great wheeling Tyler. Doing this with a manual has got to be hard. Way to go!
Awesomeness great content and krzy Broncos....Stepchild is a beast as always...egarly awaiting your next video...safe travels...jelly got to play around on the trails🐶
I LOVE your channel!!! I can't believe you guys were climbing that wall blindfolded!!!! When my jeep arrives, I wanna come play with Lite Brite Nation FOR SURE!!!! You guys are freaking AWESOME!!!!!
The bronco(and driver) did a fantastic job there. The only problems were the manual transmission and the tires.
They look awesome but traction isn't maximised with their profile!
Edit: that Bronco driver is super impressive. Only people used to a shifter will know how good he was!!!!
Sean’s rig and his driving skills are really fantastic
You forgot to mention the best part of IFS... the ride quality. He was able to do all that and keep his dentures in!
It's awesome how he's willing to try the obstacles and risk damage to the bronco. Sweet bronco!
Definitely different tires and if it had just as much work done to it as the stepchild? Would be awesome 👌! I seen a bronco at the 2021 Sema that had a solid axle in the front! Would love to see that one hit the trails!
Would have thought the Stickeys would have done better. Anyone else shocked there was no breakage at the 22:30 mark? Bouncing like that and the D44 rear held up. Also bouncing with one tire gripping on top and the CVs held. Hats off did way better than I thought it would. Great video as always.
Those tires are massive for ifs. Looks sweet though
This was a pleasant surprise!! Super dooper video!!! Much love from Louisiana
This was all pure enjoyment to watch !
Love seeing that New Bronco out there on the trails!! I am looking forward to the Raptor Bronco and the Lite Bright Bronco!!
waiting patiently for all the people that were talking last video🙂 great video!! y’all are awesome! hope to have my jeep next time with the bronco out there
tyler would have gladly kept trying that obstacle y’all pulled him up, normally my job to tell him if something is a bad idea😂
@@brendankaye7983
And you let him buy a ford?
@@OldGriz708 we have 7🙂
@@brendankaye7983 and he would have rolled it.
@@jakeweber9787 yeah i know lol that’s literally what i said
I think Tylers confidence in his ability to drive and more improtantly his TRUST in doing what the spotters are telling him. Has really improved the Bronco's preformance.
I haven't commented on being on this channel for a few yrs.. This was so damn good. Spotters and driver's.
Ya he was sliding all over the place with those knarly tires put 40" nitos and retry the same trail and and see the change in how it climbs. Man tho what a great looking Bronco for sure and it hung with the best of them congratulations 👏
I think the tires on the Bronco have too much void in them for slickrock.
Agreed, needs some BFG’s
they’re still brand new, they’ll get better as they wear down
The tires def weren’t quite hooking as well as ours.
@@LiteBrite i agree! as i said they’re still basically brand new in terms of stickies, as they get worn down the traction will increase significantly
@ 22:00 Yep Bud , Shoe that Bronco with some Nitto shoes
The Bronco's shoes are great mud tires..........but............LBN!!!
Just love your quality vids. The variety in topics and the challenges. Brit, Kev and the the gang awesome. So so long the workshop. Awesome Lite Brite
Nice to see the Bronco made it. Love the rock climbing. You guys are awesome.
Those nitto tires are really good on the rocks. It’s almost cheating 😉 great video guys.
I think tires with more contact patch would do wonders for the bronco.
That is what good times with great friends looks like. Great video once again.
Sorry I took so long to subscribe...think I've seen almost every thing on here 67-year-old kid, have a 2011 2 door off road ready. Just added a 2021 392,WOW. Getting ready for retirement, OH ...got a 9 1/2" lifted 2021 chevy truck 38" on 20's ...prolly won't see offroad like y'all do, much, but a great overlander.. you guys rock...you are the first and maybe only placed I'll subscribe. I am very picky.... keep being y'all!! so much good stuff, and y'all are a Hoot!!
So the stepchild is a celestial creation and Kevin can and is willing to outdrive EVERYONE - we know that. So Is it the overall weight of the Rig or the weight in the front due to the hemi that plants it to every obstacle? Tire spec? I see other capable rigs slide around on the same thing Kevin just crawls up. It was also that way with the milestars!
Driver mod. 😊
Officially official; "IFS can't crawl" is dead.
Mildly modified(still stock lower arms even) production IFS doing some serious trails, and, frankly, not even working that hard. I4 w/ man pedal trans at that, and, while those tires are hardly as 'bad' as the comments seem to think, they are more general purpose MTs than some of the more specialized crawling tires that benefit in the unique slick rock. What more is there to say? More slick rock-oriented tires and an auto trans(maybe even a little more shock valving optimization to try to quell potential wheel hop), and a Bronco built like this is going to make this stuff look pretty easy(...relatively speaking...).
The Bronco, Wrangler, Raptor, TRX, base V8 pony cars with more than 450HP, mid-engine Vette, aftermarket stand alone ECUs like Holley making late model engine swaps much easier and more affordable... it's a pretty damn good time to be a gear head!
The thing needs a TON of valving work, it run incredibly well for what it is but is waaay too floppy/bouncy
Sean is actually running the stickies which are made for crawling, these aren't just the Baja Pro M/T's
Glad to see the competition to a Jeep. Consumers win with the competition.
I was surprised that the Bronco did as well as it did. Obviously a very capable and experienced driver.
I’m still sticking with my Jeep but it’s nice to see some competition out there.
and on top of that, bronco was manual with 4 cylinders.
Its Bronc Riding time again! Amazing video, again; more angles than a geometry class! Seems like the Micky’s were not as grippy as the Nittos…? The Blind leading the blind and inexperienced! ..but girl has beautiful hair (..my son said..). Great job on finding a weak link and building better. LiteBriteNationTamesTheBronc!
brand new mickeys, only 3 true heat cycles
I said holy sh*t to myself like 5 times in this video! Crazy wheeling!
Same and the mouth drop!
The fella callin lines for yall was awesome. He nailed every single obstacle with perfect detail
Your contents only got better and better over the years!!! Congrats you two! Keep it up!!
I hope he has a video explaining what he did to strengthen that weak point on the Bronco steering...I love the look of the new Bronco's and I want one.
Just imagine what the Bronco could do with the right tires and an experienced driver...
I can put wheel you any day buddy!
I think he was doing pretty well considering it’s a manual.
Exactly!
Lmfao where's your clips? Oh wait you just have a Google picture of a bronco, don't actually have one🤣
That was a EPIC THRILLER 😎 BRONCO 🐎 hung in there👍KUDOS TO Y'ALL BRAVO 👏 👏👏💯💯💯
Stepchild’s exhaust note is very nice! Great video.
The Bronco would probably do better with a different set of tires. The tread pattern is more suited for mudding than rock crawling.
and a better driver
@@uowebfoot Who follows instructions from his spotters.
Love the Bronco, however the bronco slides around and spins tires too much on those tires. He needs better rock tires instead of mud tires and it would be a lot smoother climbing
That is some scary shit!! I've been out there with my buddy and his Jeep and it always amazes me what they can go up, and so easily.
really would like to know what he did to fix that steering issue he had so I could have more ideas to fix future problems with my '16 taco.
great video
40 inch stickies on stock axles? Wow!
Edit: just found out badlands also has upgraded front axle. Curious to see how long that D44 is gonna last.
Jeep gang 🤙🏼🔥
Wow!!!! Finally the right tires for Off Roading. On the Bronco
Dang that bronco looks sooooo good!
Tires on the bronco are a big disadvantage on that type of terrain. Good for mud bogging not this type of rock.
The Bronco is never going to be as good at that kind of off roading as the Wrangler, but for 99% of people it is probably the better choice of vehicle as an all around driver. I commend the Bronco owner for the build and his willingness to push the limits of his rig.
Totally impressed with what the bronco did especially with mud bias tires
Super pumped to watch this one
Until that Bronco has all the after market shit that the step child has this isn’t even a competition. I have no idea why they would challenge you. Also it’s about the skill of the driver as well. Lauren Healy ate the Rubicon trail up in his Bronco that only had 37’s.
I mean the stock bronco and the stock rubicon did the rubicon trail without getting stuck
There is a ton of custom work on it. Custom steering, Custom body lift. Lots of body and frame trimmed. Other than not having aftermarket Diffs it is pretty tricked. Stuff unless you go to a custom shop you cannot get. Gearing hurt him a bit for sure. 4.7s were not low enough. Lots of times adding heavier axles, sliders and cage stuff hurts your performance at the benefit of reliability and safety. I notice a big jump when just removing my top and doors.
@@RickStefani don’t get me wrong it did really well for mostly stock, but hanging with the step child is going to be a bit difficult with that current set up.
@@FutureShawn0058 No, I hear you. We will see how the IFS matures. I am old enough to have built up Samauris when the were a 2K buy in. Knew a few that wanted to build sidekicks that would rock crawl too. They did well but were constantly breaking CVs. I have watched so many rigs through the years were people build an IFS rig to prove everyone wrong but end up fixing it so often and being money pits until they just do a SAS. I am hopeful ford can change that. With the abuse he was giving it and it did not break the front CVs I was pretty impressed especially on 40"s. Body lift help keep the CVs from being at an extreme angle as well as when he was on it the wheels were straight but still.
@@RickStefani we just need a coyote in there now 😂😂…… but really though…
Most Girls: Holy Crap, That was Crazy, You’re Stupid!!!
Brittany: Holy Crap that was BEAUTIFUL and Beams with Pride!!
That’s a Texas Girl Gentleman!! Love from the Dallas “area”
😊🤙
Off-road wheeling at its best! Great video again!
Let’s go, Bronco! I would like to try with little Jimny 😜
Others have said it already, I hope those tires get better on the Bronco. Other than the tires it’s a solid capable vehicle. If I didn’t have to wait a year to delivery I would think about getting one but that isn’t reality. I’ll take a diesel wrangler instead.
IFS is limiting but seems like the rear flex in the bronco is super limited as well.
Still putting in work, but seems to lift any tire really easy.
Remember most of the suspension is still stock. Nothing was done to increase wheel travel.
A Bucking Bronco!.. already out the gate
the license plate isn’t “bucked” for no reason😏
Every bucking bronco does need a halter.. or a kinetic rope hooked to a cowboy wrangler..
That's is extremely extreme off-roading you guys and gals are badasses in my book. I'm a jeep guy but for sure Pretty impressive bronco.
There’s nothing like going wheeling with Kevin and Brittney to make you realize how crappy your build truly is. I’ve got to give the branco props. Still hate them but I would wheel with them. Great video guys.
you hate them because jeep got a good competition?
@@mnfishing4194 has nothing to do with competition they are just ugly as shit.
Mickeys are not that sticky.
barely 3 heat cycles, they’re still new. they get stickier as they wear down
WOW!! Lite Brite killed it.
Hope I get to join you all sometime when we move to southern UT in July. Great video!
