Dan shall now be known as High Bend. That is going to sit high like and MWRAP!

Need pics or it didn't happen.

Ok just ordered the icon 3 inch lift for my bb sas. Anyone used icon before? Any thoughts?
I plan on running the stock sas rims and tiers for awhile then probably nitto Terra graps in 37 on the stock rims. I have those 37 nittos on my F250 and love them.

Alright everyone. We order 10/31/2021 and removed lots of limiting factors like tow, side steps, MIC and roof rails. We now have a BB, Mid, Sas, Soft Top on order. I was cruising through the build week spreadsheets 4/4 to 2/14 and counted 17 units that are scheduled for production that were ordered after us. My question is how do we find out if our dealer is out of allocation? They are crickets on this. It is Gray Daniels Ford in Brandon, MS who is owned by McClarty Auto group. I was thinking it may be smart to find a dealer that has allocation and order my build a second time. What does the Big Bend group think?

 

[dan79]

order a second!!! lol I saw someone else did that then both were scheduled a week apart. but if it help you get one sooner worth a shot what 500 bucks to order each and ull get it back if u don't buy it

Curious to hear why folks chose the BB over the other models. Was it cost only?

Mine should be built in the coming weeks

BB Sasquatch w/2.7

it was the cheapest trim level that offered a rear locker without the SAS. also had the leather steering wheel, shifter, and has a grab handle so i didnt want to go to the base model.

From stock to my "build-your-own sasquatch"

Hopefully I will have some better pictures soon....

2" Zone lift, 20" Fuel Rebels in 35x12.5 Nittos.
Replaced the 4" speakers in front and rear with Kicker DS'. Took a lot of bass away but WAY more clearer sound. So now figuring out how to do a subwoofer to even it out. I plan to do the 6.5" kick panel speakers eventually. I read that people didn't recommend it because it didn't make a huge difference but it's worth throwing a set of Kickers in as it can only improve.

The Fuel Rebels are absolutely the move, matches the grill perfectly! sick Bronco Sir

Picked up my big bend a couple weeks ago. Shadow Black, mid, 2.7, soft top. Absolutely love it but had a couple complaints. Vey unimpressed with the audio so I swapped out the speakers today. Night and day difference! Other complaint is a whistle around 50-60 mph. Took it in for the dealership on Friday and they said it was normal for the soft top. NO WAY is it normal and I’ve seen the posts about the grille or hood causing this. My blend was 12/10 so it was supposed to be after the weather seal issue on the hood. It’s not the mirrors, coming from the front. Anyone have any solutions? At least now I can drown it I’m out with the new speakers!

My Big Bend is on ice mountain. Hoping it gets to me before too long.

As much as I want to upgrade the tries once my Bronco arrives extra cash will be on short supply. Lol.

So I will have to ride stock for the time being. So that leads me to this question.

I will eventually get an A/T tire. Other than increasing my ground clearance a little bit is there any reason to get a 33” a/t over the stock size (but in a/t)?

Other than looking slightly cooler.

Picked up our big bend a couple months ago. So far we've just added 1" front level and 285 70 17 ridge grapplers.

 

[sniffHound]

Wow. Rims look awesome with those tires.

Okay. Big Bend thread game. (Please delete if everyone hates this.)
My build is no where in sight so let’s have some fun. My ordered was 10/3021 no reservation. It was a 2.7 base Sas MIC with Tow (MNBigFoot is Correct. We were going to do aftermarket till we went to the BB.) . Wife investigated and it changed to a BB Sasquatch, mic, RR, tow, sidesteps with mid. That was Nov 8th. Feb 1st we removed tow, mic, rr, sidesteps.
Who can guess when we get a production notification? Winner gets a $20 bronco gift card just for the fun of it.

My guess is 4/24. 3:08 PM.
Time is the tie breaker.

 

[MWILD]

Got my shipping notification. Hopefully I’ll have it in the next 2-4 weeks.
