I’m very pleased with the Teraflex Falcons so far. I use the compression adjustment for off-road and on road and it makes a dramatic difference. It’s also a well priced set, more involved install and 0 offset required. I’m running the max performance “35” version but I have 37in tires no...
Apex Designs Air Lynx for the ford Bronco.
These connect to the factory sway bar replacing the end links. You can change the pressure with the included shock pump to increase or decrease free travel of the factory sway bar. A good kit for broncos w/o the factory disconnect.
I ran this kit...
You're not really looking to go to a particularly large tire that's going to create a lot of stress on the bronco, and you're not looking to do crazy stuff. A front 1" spacer lift (or what would be traditionally called a level) is possibly all you really need to get the look you want and run...
Fair, that’s the @AccuTune Offroad length, which Ive debated changing at least that Fox length in my table to his number because we have verifiable evidence from him that Fox is probably measuring it differently.
With the shorter bump stop I’ve started debating is it really that different then...
@87-Z28 this is really cool data. You proved some of my thoughts wrong because while I do believe that some suspension clearly do increase droop I didn’t that the angle change was so dramatic, this shows otherwise.
Now I do believe any sort of spacer/puck lift on the front beyond that ~24.5in...
Agree with your method of measurement. Odd what fox is doing for sure. For our case I feel confident in the shock stroke/travel numbers by either method.
Appreciate the bump stop information.
Thanks for Joining the conversation and confirming the numbers, updated my post. Appreciate your POV on that, I think most consumers want to be informed. It’s helpful to have the numbers!
Debated leaving the CDXS off as you point out but wanted to include some features, I think a few folks are...
Thanks for the correction, I miss understood this from an earlier post and thought you were measuring from the top most point of the top hat, not the mounting surface. I think that is the measurement represented in the table for most.
I can’t explain the ~0.85in difference on the Fox...
10,000% agree.
Spring rate is an area where I have limited data, and I should have asked when I collected this other info. I’m sure @AccuTune Offroad knows a few.
If I have hot take is probably that every one of these suspension setups is pushing the front LCA/shaft about is low as they will...
They will for sure. Eibachs are nice. In the under 2K range I’d say they’re a bit better then 6112s.
For the RJ trailing arms I did go aluminum. I’ve seen the steel joints come loose and need better tightening. The aluminum ones compress and tighten, I don’t think they can loosen. Having to...
That's it, I don't think you can go around those limits unless you're going NEW LCA's, wider track width, longer half-shafts, etc. Some suspension will allow you to go fast on 37s w/o fender mods and others will allow you to go slow over large objects with greater articulation. Choose your poison.
Where I'm going we don't need sway bars they will only slow us down. Any sway bar will limit your travel, but it will also balance your vehicle in articulation. You can actually gain small increments in front end articulation with a properly installed rear sway bar, but really it's a balance...
The Ride shock numbers come directly from you in a thread, and I believe the ICON numbers do too, or at least in a thread you added information to.
Totally, again my goal is travel, you could easily look at this data and say what could provide, lift, ride comfort and high speed performance...
Yes and no. There is a lot to unpack in your comment. So as far as the numbers go, they're real "stop to stop" shock travel numbers. That's really just how manufactures report this, the nice thing is even if they are measuring the full length or assumed eye to eye or mount to mount, as long as...
Sorry Y'all, actually had to work today at work, just getting to some responses. The longer comments I'll get to in a separate post.
I'm running Carli components on my F250 and would not run anything else. I have some of the Carli Bronco skid plates, they're very nice, they are a huge pain...
Your boxing recommendation, is that only early 21s or do later version also need the reinforcements?
I’m still very much a fan of the RK 4-link but it certainly needs to be understood by those going down that road it’s a serious undertaking. Everyone I’ve talked to loves the on-road handling...
For the last several months I've been collecting data with @Gene Dios with my own personal goal of getting a lot more articulation out of my bronco. I'm a data driven person and I've been planning upgrades. Spoiler I made those upgrades, I went with Teraflex Flacons and I'll talk about those...
