2023 and 17 months in. Zero issues.

This is a prime example of the main issue with doing mods on the Bronco platform. Each of the manufacturers are working with their own components and very little cross MFG testing is being done... Well, except by us users. There are some really great components out there, but when mixed with...

Yes, the spring shouldn't be overlooked... it's contributing to the overall softer feeling for sure. And if they flow a little more in the initial range, that would likely be what I felt. But yes, the Eibach's seem like the value champion.

I'd love to see the curves on a shock dyno, because they certainly feel less digressive than Bilsteins. I suspect (while exaggerated) the Eibach curve is closer to the orange line than the blue line.

Very few people have disliked the Eibach setup, I think the mob mentality would direct you that way and for good reason. A lot of people like the digressive valving of Bilstein shocks, but I'm not one of them. I prefer linear on my offroad vehicles, so I wouldn't likely recommend the Ford...

I didn't know there was a decal difference either... But a quick look underneath at the shocks will be an easy ID. Yellow is 2.0.

Really good when new, get loud over time. Need to be diligently rotated or can develop odd wear patterns making them even louder. Main issue is that it's an old design now and there are many newer designed (better) tires available.

I hope it works great for you. I have had no issues.... But there is also no salt or any other bad stuff on our roads.

I have aFe exhausts on multiple vehicles including my JKU. They make great stuff. One comment that often comes up with aFe is their choice of SS grade. Here in AZ, I have no issues at all and they look new after years of use. But some say in areas with high corrosion, they can have issues...

It's short and only 1 real obstacle.

Elvis is no joke... Plenty of places to tear something up there. Have you done the waterfall on Jackhandle? Should be easy enough to climb, but none of the Bronco's would try it last time out there.

Size for size, and LR for LR, the released KO3's weigh more than the KO2. If you think they're going to whack off 10lbs, good luck. And if you're bagging on Kanati, you might go read some of their reviews. They have a great reputation and aren't anything like a LingLong... :wink:

The Kanati in that size is LR-C and I get them from Desert Rat Offroad. Their distribution center is somewhere in California. But if you want to buy them online, SimpleTire has them...

Many Jeeps before the Bronco... Still have the blue JKU. Most recent 2: Sold the LJ to buy the Bronco. I won't beat on the Bronco the way I do the Jeep, it would not survive without spending 10's of thousands on it. But it's better for daily use and I love the tech in it. I do find humor...

Damn... Both BFG and Falken fornicated the pooch with their next generation tires. The weight flat out sucks. The Kanati Overland RTX is listed at 59lbs, not far off the GoodforaYears. Still thinking I'm going to go with those for the JKU in a couple months.

Hard to overlook the branding... Wranglers have a serious following. I have both, and my wife still prefers to drive the Jeep. She acknowledges that it rides worse and is louder (mud tires) and has less tech, but she still gets in it every morning and heads off to work when both are available...

Old post, sorry I missed the tag... They are being replaced by a new part number. There is some international codes that needed to be added to the tire. Doesn't change the tire, just the sidewall marking. New 315/70R17 331311001 New 35x12.5x17 331309001 Cheers!

I will be watching for updates, in my experience, the aluminum body radiators don't fair well on off road vehicles because they don't flex when the frame twists and they crack. Keep an eye on it...

First was the nano-ceramic window tint. Worth every penny. The first mods I personally did? De-badging the front fenders and the raise step mod. All 3 shown in my profile pic.

8.5 with +12 for Squatch fenders... Zero has a small amount of poke. You can also do +25 if you want them to stay slightly under the Squatch fender.
