It’s one thing to buy an SUV because you want to go off-road someday, and it’s one thing to actually go off-road. One Ford Bronco He just wasn’t good enough for his owner to go off-road, so he took it to the extreme trails on his private property to prove it. Spoiler alert: Few SUVs can follow this pony through the wilderness.

Posted in a Ford for a day out in the dirt with a BentPushRod steering wheel. Bronco 6G. He documented the process of turning his 2-door Bronco on the base into an off-road monster. This includes RCI rock sliders, AC Fab stabilizer disconnects, Robo hidden winches, 37-inch Yokohama tires and more. Even the worst-performing Bronco may have a hard time keeping up.

Nonetheless, the private property where he found this trail in North Dakota had a tough challenge. His thread says he was “driving with several buggies”, one of which he had on 54 inch tires, so his Bronco was significantly inferior. Nonetheless, see below how he handles this wild section of trail.

This video perfectly demonstrates why it’s so great to have a second eyeball while driving off-road. Of course, it doesn’t hurt to have all of the off-road tech you see here and nerves of steel to keep the Bronco upright. Even after overcoming the obstacles, the Bronco still has a lot to climb.

In the next clip you can see how it easily turns left and begins to rise. After conquering the first section, it’s no surprise that the buggy in front of you seems like a no-brainer. BentPushRod doesn’t show exactly how he and the others got off these obstacles, or if there was an easier way to get off somewhere else.

Either way, it’s a great example of how a road-legal vehicle can perform on a daily basis if properly equipped.

It’s one thing to buy an SUV with hopes of off-roading with it someday and it’s a whole different thing to actually take it off-road. For one Ford Bronco owner, just going off-road wasn’t enough so he took it to an extreme trail on private property and proved just how capable it is. Spoiler alert: few SUVs could follow this pony into the wilderness."

The poster who took their Ford out for a day in the dirt goes by the handle BentPushRod on Bronco6G. He’s documented the process of turning his base two-door Bronco into an off-roading monster. That includes RCI rock sliders, AC Fab sway bar disconnects, a Lobo hidden winch, 37-inch Yokohama tires, and more. Even the baddest stock Bronco might struggle to keep up."

Despite that, the private property where he found this trail in North Dakota offered a severe challenge. His thread says he was “wheeling with some buggies”, one of which was running 54-inch tires so his Bronco was seriously outgunned. Despite that, take a look at how he handles this wild section of trail below."

That’s what we see in the next clip as it handily makes the turn to the left and begins to ascend. After it conquered the first section it should come as no surprise that it seems to effortlessly make its way to the buggy just ahead. BentPushRod doesn’t show us exactly how he and the others descended these obstacles or if there was an easier way down somewhere else."

Either way, it’s an excellent example of just how capable an everyday street-legal vehicle can be with the right equipment."
