The wheels I have are not original Ford, but they are identical in all dimensions to the Sasquatch wheels. If you are driving on road then I don't think you'll have any problems with the 35s / 315s. Depending on your driving style, they may even work off-road for you. I tend to drive on the...

My Non-Sasquatch Badlands had 2525 as the original tire size value (285/70R17) in ForScan. Hope that helps.

If you have the Sync 4 navigation, it shows the altitude on that.

Update A few days into our first road trip with a bit of off road, I noticed some rubbing on the front with the 315/70R17s on the same size and offset wheels as the Sasquatch gets. When going into larger bumps, even at moderate speeds, the front tires contact the fenders. At the top of the...

I personally think that car makers should not be allowed to illuminate the dash when the headlights aren't on. I hate it when folks are rolling around in the fog, dusk/dawn, with just their DRLs, yet probably thinking that their lights are on since their dash is all lit up. With more cars going...

If it avoids someone hitting me, then I don't care if it cost me 50 cents a year to run the lights :) Without knowing any statistics, I would still guess that the increased cost of running the lights are far out weighted by the social and material savings of the accidents they prevented.

For what it's worth, I installed the TCU update and can't notice any changes, positive or negative.

Yeah, I might restore my As Build I pulled when I got the truck since it seems nobody has had this happen. Thanks for the reply!

It isn't enabling the brake lights, just the taillights. It is mandatory in some countries as studies have shown a decrease in accidents, just like with front daytime running lights.

UPDATE: Finally got the issue fixed. Apparently this was a software bug in a specific BMS software version. I installed the newest version with FDRS after seeing a Ford service bulletin about this issue and everything works as it should now. ----------------------- I enabled, via Forscan, to...

Just checked my 2023 Badlands 2.7 and the setting is set to 0xxx.

You can see my write up of putting the same size and offset wheel and tire combo that the Sasquatch has on my Non-Sasquatch Bronco https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/35s-on-non-sasquatch-2023-badlands.102630/#post-2369400

I'll play along :) My guess is that you are probably fine with either, and should have a lot more tire capacity left over in the Bronco. But for maximum peace of mind I would bump the Bronco up to 35 psi as that is the minimum "certified" pressure for LT tires, and keep the Sequoia at 38 psi...

Surprisingly it seems that both the European (ETRTO) and American (TRA) organizations that do these standardizations have the documents available only for paying members...Toyo still has an older chart on their website that should apply to other brands as well...

Yeah, that makes sense then. Since the tires aren't massively different in terms of air volume, the LT would need more pressure to match the P rated load carrying capabilities. Now you may not need the actual load carrying capacity, and prefer the tradeoff in handling vs ride comfort (I expect a...

What was the OEM tire pressure on your stock tires, and where they P rated or LT tires? If P rated, then there is a conversion factor when switching to LT rated tires. What tire size are you running now, and are they LT rated tires? Also, several years ago the door stickers for tire pressures...

Similar here, I've settled on 35 psi on my E rated 315/70R17. Wearing great and hasn't blown up during top speed runs on the Autobahn without any load.

Absolutely agree, the pressure should align with the weight. But there also is the vehicle driving dynamics aspect in addition to just the pure weight carrying capacity. For example, mounting a roof top tent to a car won't appreciably increase the weight, but due to the height of that weight it...

I don't have anything I can link up that supports or disproves that. However, that is what a tire engineer at Continental told me. He says that while less plies will general create more flex, higher load rated tires with reinforced sidewalks will initially resist heat build up due to less flex...

This website has a convenient calculator that will show you what pressure has the equivalent load rating as your original tires. https://tiresize.com/pressure-calculator/ The problem with the chalk test is that it doesn't account for heat build up. Especially an E rated tired on a lighter...
