@Mace GOAT has a Badlands. I understand 35s will fit on Badlands, which have slight lift over Outerbanks and other models with base HOSS suspension. Those base suspension models like OB would need small lift to fit 35s, especially if you plan on doing any off-roading. IMO you need to stick with...
I agree. Some folks bought into the hype and marketing but may not like having a truck. And all the surprised folks when the MPG estimates were released. And those that thought it could be a somewhat economical long distance daily driver. And those that criticize the character of the truck for...
Great toy and extra vehicle but not a good daily driver if you do lots of miles due to high cost of ownership and low mpg, unless you just don’t care about the cost then it’s fine.
It’s not quiet like stock. But if you want loud exhaust then this one’s not for you. But if you want noticeable yet moderate and refined sound, this is a great option.
Nice, thanks for posting! I put FI axle back on my 2.7L Badlands a few months ago and love it. Quality piece that gives it a nice bit of sound but without making my wife complain like she used to with my Mustang GT… phew!
Just the 1” Zone front level, which is really only 0.75” since I didn’t add the 2nd spacer below the shock. But also, Badlands stock is slightly lifted vs OB, etc. Oh also, my wheels are 17x8 +25 KMC for “no poke” with the SAS flares I added.
I put 305 Toyo Open Country AT3 on my 21 Badlands. I’ve had 20 different tire types/ brands over the decades and these tires are top notch. Only regret is that I could have got 315’s. I was concerned about fitment but many others have found that 315’s (or “35s”) fit with no problem, especially...
Thoughts on the Zone 2” (PN F1221 for Bilstein shock vehicles) but installing front spacer only … i.e., without installing the small front spring perch collar? Reason I ask is if I’m lifting the rear only 1” then I only want 1.25” or 1.5” in front and not 2”.
I’m very happy with the MGV here in central NC with windows off/down all summer and I rarely ever use AC. And I’m a heavy sweater but I’ve not noticed any issue.
I just retired and the truck is paid off, and it’s one of my favorite vehicles that I’ve owned, so probably until I die or they take my license away ;)
