Re: Bronco is alive I've been told the Atlas loosens up after a while. Nice, I'm jealous.

Re: Bronco is alive Yeah, it will loosen up some. After mine was installed, I actually got stuck in neutral with my wheels turned (spool related). I had to get out, push my bronco one way to get something to engage.
After that I drove it (open headers in the TX heat) to the exhaust shop. Once back home, it shifted much easier. So go get it warmed up good and watch for leaks. I had to tighten some sockethead cap screws on mine after some use. Oh and congrats!

Re: Bronco is alive On my most recent Moab excursion, I was riding with Steve St Clair with the Utah Bronco Club, he was shifting his Atlas from high to low and low to high on the fly with absolutely no issues. He made it look like it was no issue at all. In fact enough that it made me decide to buy one myself.
