Completely agree. Going from our stock BL on 33" to 37" will get us 2" of clearance everywhere, uniformly (even more if you get true 37" tires). A suspension lift of any height + 37" doesn't buy you any additional clearance to your rear axel, or towards the outside side of the lower control...
Have you considered a small body lift? You should be able to get some additional clearance to the fenders this way.
I’ve got a non-SAS BL on order and am very thankful for this thread and the others who already have theirs and are putting the effort in to fit 37’s with the absolute minimum...
Have to agree the BRaptor looks great in A51. OP, how do you like your trailer? It’s one of the couple on our short list along with the Mammoth. We’re also nearby so probably see you around!
Thanks for correcting that. Looks like I’d misunderstood the alternator placements. Yeah based on where it is, I’d say you’re right, no consideration for the extra fording depth based on the alternator.
It makes sense to an extent. The 2.7's also carry a lower payload capacity, since their dry weight is higher. Couple that with the added weight of the winch, and the vehicle could have been too close to gross rating to sell with the 2.7.
/edit removed the alternator bit as that was incorrect...
We're missing a critical bit of information here - the pricing of the MOD top. Quite convenient that we can't add the Black/Body Colored MOD Top so its really difficult to put a price on the premium Heritage carries.
There is, though not as much as earlier orders. Outlined in Ford's FAQ: https://www.ford.com/support/how-tos/owner-resources/bronco/bronco-order-holder-frequently-asked-questions/
So long as you placed your order on March 11 2022 or earlier, you'll have price protection for the original base...
It really feels like the sweet spot in the lineup, and if you want the 7MT and any options its pretty much the only route, Heritage aside.
New orders though, I'd be really surprised if they open up before sometime in calendar 2023, using the recent 4 or 5 day window to order a Maverick as as...
Badlands has the option to get the high package, which includes the 360 degree trail camera system that the Everglades doesn't offer, also the manual 7-speed, or two door as an option.
Our 2-Door Badlands, High, Tow, 7MT is $48k so, just depends on your build.
You can get the Heritage with a 7MT and Mid, but if you don't want the white accents, top, and dash, your only option is Badlands with a 7MT and either Mid or High.
Looks like our 2 Door Badlands 7MT, High build went up $700. Noticed the Signature headlights are now $795 add to the other builds, so theoretically dropping to the Base LED headlights when that option gets added back should drop our build by $95, ignoring the price protection Ford told us we have.
Anyone else notice the lack of rock rails on the Badlands and Black Diamond? They're missing from the renders, though they're included under Standard Equipment for both in the MY23 Order Guide
This is the way Ford explained it to me. Everyone who had an existing retail order for a MY22 Bronco that was placed before the mid-March 2022 MY22.5 price increase will keep their pricing, provided they don't make a trim level/door count change.
High speed cornering stability. Sway bars minimize body roll, which is why they add it with the 3.0 kit, as it’s tuned for more high speed desert use than the HOSS 2.0.
Could always purchase some 80/20 or similar system and build your own, this way you get the exact spacing between rails you’re looking for.
Agreed though it’d be nice to see more officially compatible roof platform suppliers, but it’s pretty typical to see a delay for roof top accessories on...
There's some info here on the pre-wired locations, if you have the upfitter aux switches installed in your Bronco: https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/2021-bronco-aux-switches-wiring-diagram-video-discussions.13485/
