Thanks for the measurements. It seems that it is a bit subjective to measure the height of a lift. When it came back from the shop all loaded up with the old parts, it was about 39". When I fully unloaded the vehicle it went up to 40-40.5 (they all a little different). I reloaded gear, now down...

No noise yet, but only a couple hundred miles! I have a big trip planned to the beach in a few weeks, that will put them to the test! So far, so good. They did tell me that the polyurethane bushings at the bottom mounts will need changing in 20,000 miles.

I bought my Non-Sasquatch OBX 5 years ago with the rear locker, 4.27 gearing and Auto Transfer Case with the intention of upgrading shocks and tires later on. Except for adding Badlands take-off 33's, I otherwise studied other builds and enjoyed the very-capable car as it was, upgrading other...

I wanted to be sure your new UCA'S work at that height; some won't adjust alignment well under 2"

Thanks for the post. I just installed a set of Radflo for the same reason . . . I dont want too big of a lift. I share @Valhalla question about the Accutune UCA. You note that it adjusts alignment well, which is an issue for low lifts. To clarify, and have about a 1.5" lift (but over Sasquatch)?

Where were they before? I think mine were closer to the center? Maybe it's your placement?

Do they need to be recalibrated in the car computer, like they did in the Autobody shop after they replaced my front bumper? With FORScan or the Ford dealer program?

I bought a set of Radflo Standard Travel 2.5 coilovers and will have them set at 1.5" lift when they are installed tomorrow. The OEM Hitachis are pretty shot at 87,000 miles on my 2021 OBX. The Radflo can theoretically be set at 0-2". Replacement UCA'S are hard to find, since most aftermarket...

Same story with me. I was so impressed with the 2.7 Eco on my 2016 F150, I was happy to have it (an updated version of it, I'm told) in my 2021 Bronco.

Curious, which transmission is in the Tremor Explorer?

I just bought a set of Radflo Standard Travel 2.5 coilovers (0-2" lift) for my non-Sasquatch OBX to run the Nitto g3 285/75R17 C on 17x8.5, +30 Heritage wheels. I was previous (currently) running 285/70R17 Badlands take-offs on the OEM Hitachi. I hope to have all this installed by September 1...

I remember the same thought process & discussion when we discovered in 2020 that the new 6g Bronco was getting the 10R60 transmission from the Ranger, instead of the 10R80 transmission from the F150. It would seem like a continuation of that design choice to keep the 2.7 and 10R60 in the...

To be clear, the "unlifted" Base Bronco (BB, BD, OBX) uses "Hoss 1" black Hitachi Shocks. The Badlands is lifted about .6" over Base with yellow Bilstein Hoss II shocks. The Sasquatch uses a longer yellow Bilstein Hoss II shock for a 1.1" lift over Base. The Hoss III Fox Wildtrak Ford...

Some of this depends on where you live. I've almost always had a 4wd or awd vehicle because of snow. When it comes, when I lived in PA or the Adirondacks, i could get myself out of trouble, through a blizzard, or a family member to work in any condition. Is that "wheeling?" No, but you need a...

I chose the gentler route on my 2021 non-Sasquatch OBX. I installed Badlands take-offs 17x8 wheels with 285/70R17 tires (33's). They are about .8" taller, up to 2" wider and look fuller in the wheel well. They have been great on the beach. They reduced overall MPG from 20 to 18. They require no...
