I think it is a pretty good indicator, as the tracker lagged my delivery by about a day. Rail/transport updates that my dealer could see had stalled out a couple of days before.
The SAS bilsteins are longer than the badlands bilsteins, but the the amount of travel is reduced by 15mm with internal stops to keep the 35's from rubbing in compression. The longer shock and slightly higher spring perches make the SAS ride about 1/2" taller than the badlands.
Best advise...
On my badlands 7MT w4.70 , 35's , 6th is usable from about 70mph. Will hold speed, accelerate, climb hills etc on cruise control without any issues . With the 4.46's you should be good from 75mph on up.
I was getting 17.5-18.5, no stop & go, just surface roads, highways, and some 70-80 expressways. When I switched to the SAS wheels and tires, now 17-17.5 .
I tried the RC extension on mine, and it seemed to stick it up too high for 35's, so I want to track down the part from the SAS trucks.

When you get closer to your blend date the prod date will get populated. It is the build 'day' generally. The eta end date is the eta of delivery to your dealer (shipping is built in).
Build time is typically the same or +1 day from the blend date. If you have roof rails, ppf, decals or...
Yes, there is also a cheaper $20-40 training tool that may be able to work - used on lots of other fords.
I use on on my gt350 when swapping between race wheels. You do a 'pedal dance' with the brake and ignition to set the BCM into tire pressure sensor training mode. Then go around to...
2dr badlands 2.3 7mt. I was averaging 17-18, then added SAS wheels and tires, and it dropped into the low 17's. Got mid 17's all highway last weekend for 200+ miles , running 75 on cruise. Noticeable increase in boost and throttle to move the 35's in 6th gear and maintain speed. 1-5 you...
@flip I want to update my standard badlands above to SAS. Have the shock part #s, What spring codes should I use for a 2dr BL 2.3 auto with SAS?
Currently have these on the truck. Wondering If I can re-use the rear "F" springs
F/R MB3Z-5310-J/MB3Z-5560-F
This is the right answer, the ‘21 reservation system is flawed. If you really want a bronco start another order at another dealer to improve your odds.
I ran into this when I ordered my super duty. Ordered in July at a dealer with good allocation, and kept an eye on constraints, and was...
I have SAS takeoffs on my standard badlands now. In normal driving no clearance issues (once the crash bars are removed). Unless you are flexing heavy off road you may not need to do anything. I will try mine on the trails first before deciding to front level, or switch to SAS shocks and springs.
