Is the Zone 2.25" Lift for the Wildtrak HOSS 3.0 the best complete Kit ? ? ? ? Who has one?

[dangerfoot]

I installed the zone kit on my ‘23 Wildtrak about 3 weeks ago. As previously said the ride is slightly stiffer but I think I can lower the air pressure in the tires to get it pretty close to stock ride. I did the JKS max tire kit at the same time with 37x12.50 Firestone Destinations. One piece of advice if you do it yourself. The instructions say it’s optional to loosen the CV nut and remove the hub but in my opinion this is not optional. If you don’t do this you will pull the CV apart and it is a PIA to get the C clip back in without taking the hub off anyway.

Perfect look right here. Have white WT and some Fox HOSS 3.0 from another member here, think I have to lift it too now.

And hard to believe there's not more feedback on this kit out there...I am leaning this way bc the Zone/Fox connection that is clearly spelled out on he product page. I almost wish they had a slightly less lift option but...man these look so good.

Are you looking for a mild lift/leveling or a more complete lift kit including UCA? I went with the Eibach Pro-Lift springs. Eibach advertises +1.9" Front | +1.3" Rear increase with the 3.0 Fox setup. I got almost exactly that amount of lift. I got 1-7/8" on the front and about 1.5" rear. I still have a little rake front to back of about 3/4" higher in the rear but I'm good with that small amount of rake. So far liking the street ride. I think the Eibachs ride a little softer and smooth out the hard bumps like pot holes, RR tracks etc. Haven't been off road yet.

Pro’s: Looks great w/37’s

Cons: My front sits a bit higher than rear now, exaggerated with a load of gear in the back. Ride is a bit stiffer. Plastic Trimming, crash bar horn removal, wheel well liners, wheel offset/spacers are still required if you want to come close to clearing 37’s.

Is that before and after pictures? The upgraded Eibach springs work on all Bronco suspensions?

Yes before and after pics. Eibach now offers the Pro-Lift springs for Badlands 4-Door 2.7L V6 EcoBoost 4WD | Non-Sasquatch, ANY MODEL W/ SASQUATCH, and Wildtrak with Fox 3.0. The amount of lift front and back differ by model and shocks so you have to check their site.

Do a search there are several threads on Eibach Pro-Lift springs. I wanted a mild lift for the Wildtrak that didn't use perch collars or spacers so I could retain the full suspension travel without preloading the suspension Or going high enough to have to use new UCA.

Exactly what I was looking for and hence the inquiry. Wildtrack owner as well so this would be my goal.

Wonder if 37s would fit with the springs, jk lift kit, some spacers and trimming? Anyone want to give that a shot?

Nope, if it doesn’t clear with more lift it won’t clear with less.
I guess you can remove the fenders and quarter panels completely

any update on the ride? Off road? This may be exactly what I’m looking for. Sticking with 35’s and don’t want to ditch the Fox’s just yet.

Definitely liking the street ride but unfortunately too much on my plate to do any more off roading this year. If you do a search there are several threads on the Eibach Pro springs. Seems to be a good setup to start with for stock handling then maybe transition to the Eibach Pro Truck coil-overs for more height and adjustability later for 37s.

I found this info handy when I first started researching about lift ideas.

Anyone install this on a '24 Wildtrak? Listing on the site says the '24 isn't compatible.

You’re good to go

Been eyeing this kit since (black) Friday. Sale was still on this morning when I woke up and pulled the trigger on it! I will report back by thoughts and pictures once its installed. Im staying with the factory 35s until probably summer.

I came here to see what the feedback was on this zone kit. I have the RPG perch collar kit for the hoss 3.0 on my Wildtrak (2.25 F. 1.5 R) with stock uca's. The ride is stiffer but only becomes noticeable upon impact, reduced body roll in turns, reduced nose dive as others have stated. I do want a slightly higher lift at some point, everything seems to be pointing towards a full suspension upgrade down the road. The perch collar lift is a great entry-level option to clear 37s and still be able to do some wheeling, but it's not the final destination for me.

I added the zone kit. The last two photos show how little clearance I had with 37s and 0 offset wheels. Ended up adding the JKS max tire kit and removing rear crash bars to be able to wheel. Love the kit overall.
