The video of the dude in his garage removing a clutch pilot bushing with a slice of bread and a sledge hammer was far more interesting.
That's the best way to do it though.

I have been waiting for these, and was ready to drop $5k on them, but at nearly $7k, I may roll the dice on Falcon at this point.

Welllll....

I watched all 40 minutes of it for some reason.



EDIT— Honestly the guy on the left (Shane?) knew his stuff, which he had the opportunity to explain more.

In my view, speaking as a career truck engineer, my statement on who engineers the best Bronco suspension is correct.
What does “best” mean to you in regards to suspension?

“Best” is such a vague term to use for something that is so subjective.

I'm extremely pleased with the Sasquatch suspensions on my Everglades and Heritage Edition.
Ford engineers pegged it......perfectly.
Probably the worst shock I've ever had, can't wait to replace them!

We can only find a few videos of falcon shocks on the Bronco. I wish there was more data on these.

My guess is the $7k number is the MSRP...most retailers will be selling at the lower MAP pricing...whatever that price might be.

I watched the entire thing on 2x speed and it was ….. fine? I guess some on here were craving a hype video with 5 sepia filters and Bryan Cranston. Maybe not the best “announcement” video but I don’t think it was intended to be that. Just an in-house podcast describing a product that was already on the market for other platforms. Good info and sold me on them for the bronco. Now who can tell me when they hit retailers?

No, the word "best" isn't the least bit vague. My generation knows exactly what the word means.

I made it to 10:01 (10 minutes, 1 second). TL;DR do I win a prize??
Think that prize goes to @RagnarKon .

I almost quit within the first 30 sec. after the SFF blathered on about 4Runners. But I persevered until around the 20 min. mark when I felt like stabbing my eyes/ears. You sir are a glutton for punishment.

That's why I said roll the dice. I really wish there were more reviews out there.

They're fancy, no doubt. But I'd rather pull the trigger on the RK shocks.

A somewhat different use case (desert running vs. long overlanding with increased weight) but the $1800 I just spent on my Old Man Emus is looking like a better and better decision.
