Still on the fence with these and found answer to badlands sas vs hoss 3 wild track is 1" more lift. What they sayin is BL has the swaybar disconnect.
Will the disconnect be a reason ford says not compatible??

I'm confused, where does Ford say it's not compatible with Badlands Sasquatch? As on Ford Performance site, it states "Fits: 2021-2025 Bronco 4-Door (Except Raptor)"

That second part says the wildtrak is one inch higher than a standard badlands. Not a badlands with Sasquatch package.

Yeah that AI is not accurate. In fact many of my Wildtraks were the same or a negligible amount shorter than other models with the Hoss 2.0 SAS.

Also the SAS vs BL non-SAS is roughly an inch but it is accounting for the larger tire AND the lift, not just the suspension.

Please do not rely on AI overview to be an accurate source. It's just a starting point and you have to perform your own research to determine its accuracy. Here's how you use the AI overview:

Ford Bronco HOSS 3.0 Suspension Kits - Now available from Ford Performance! 2025-08-24_12-52-55


Click the link icon at the end of the paragraph.

Ford Bronco HOSS 3.0 Suspension Kits - Now available from Ford Performance! 2025-08-24_12-53-05


This will appear on the right side, click the page link.

You'll see the original source where AI overview found its "facts". In this instance you can see it's from a Reddit post where someone was questioning package differences. You can see the statement in context.

Obviously this is not an authoritative source!

I knew the statement was wrong but I appreciate the detailed breakdown how AI summarizes the "facts". In this case, they are relying on OregonHerbMan's post on Reddit. I'm taking the over no matter what the line is set at that OregonHerbMan was and is still high. 🥴

Just an update to close the loop on this,

Ford Performance has gotten back to me and said that the sway bar mount bracket is indeed missing on some early 2021 broncos and that they will be updating the verbiage on the website and kit. As of now, there is no bracket available from Ford to retrofit, so I would have to say this means this kit is essentially not compatible with the early 2021 broncos that don't have this bracket already from the factory

Thanks for taking the time to follow through with this and share the info.

Don’t hold your breath. Had a 24 ranger and bought FP rims said to fit. They lied. I had to eat mount /balance fees and a crap load of time just to get money back.
They never updated the site and I’m sure others are getting rims that rub in control arms.

This reads like the same warranty BS as the pro cal tuner. You do not actually get a 3/36 warranty unless you have them installed the day you get your brand new Bronco. If you install them on a 1 year old Bronco with 35,000 miles you actually get a 1,000 mile warranty, that’s it. I think they intentionally word that deceptively.

You actually thought that the 3yr/36k started the day you have them installed? In that case someone could limp in with 100k miles on the clock and get another 3yr/36k? That's crazy.

I’m very tempted to order the two door kit for my 22 badlands Sasquatch. Can anybody confirm if the stabilizer bar is the same part number as what comes stock? Also, am I correct in understanding this will not add any lift and possibly even lower my vehicle a little? I’m ok with that.

Please let us know what they come back with, if they have a ford part number on a bracket I'd be pretty interested,

Thanks
Finally got the Bronco back today. The kit was sent with the wrong bolts apparently so they had to get some sent in last week. They just didn't use the rear track bar. If anyone wants it .... Let me know.

Mine shocks are showing up today. How much and where did you get it installed?
