Interesting, they claim their springs are progressive, but I can't really see it in their pics.

At least in Bilstein's picture it looks like they're indicating their rear springs are progressive...

Now I get it - this would seem to be the key data point

You're in Texas, full synthetic 10W-30 Top-tier gas

Maybe progressive springs add enough performance to find shocks that work with them ?

I don't have the patience for Cunningham's law. Anyone know if the factory sas springs are progressive ?

Yes, exactly. How do I know it's a software issue? Hold the go pedal in exactly the same place. Initially, the computer second-guesses you. Their AI decides, "he doesn't really want to move, so I'm not going to give him the gas." If you hold the go pedal in the same place long enough, then...

Yes, it's easy to get carried away, when it doesn't actually cost a lot to improve the front-rear articulation balance :

FWIW, my stock OBX has lots of brake dive, so I would imagine there could be very limited aftermarket firming compared to stock. Seems like it could work. After dialing in the front, then do whatever needs to be done to restore rake via rear ride height. Assuming Eibach's upgrade front...

Does deleting the rear trackbar allow high-speed towing? So you no longer have the rear trackbar steering the rear axle while towing at high speeds?

Someone else mentioned brake dive with Eibach springs https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/rock-jock-antirock-sway-bar-kit-released.78209/#post-2014521

I have this on my new one. The first thought that comes to mind, this vehicle's programming is more interventionist than any other that I've ever had. It's a bit surprising that 3 years was not enough time for them to work out all the bugs. I tend to view things optimistically. In a room...

Yes, I have that as well, just like many of the others who have posted. I try to view things optimistically. In a room full of crap, I'm looking for the pony. At a minimum, it's a reminder to be grateful that you bought prior to deployment of the drunk sensors.

Thanks guys! I've been trying to hold off on that approach. Maybe I'll have to do that someday. So far Op Sec has been working for me.

Don't worry, they're getting really close. Should be working in a couple years : https://www.nada.org/nada/nada-headlines/ford-says-drivers-will-be-able-take-their-eyes-road-two-years-bloomberg

The guy in that video I linked above is into overlanding. That's why he advocates making front and rear travel more equal, by increasing the travel length of the front shocks, and by adding a rear swaybar that's extra-firm. These two steps can get the front travel close to the rear travel...

I guess that's the thing. Everybody has different preferences. Now that you mention the back seats, I would like to have both, depending on whether the back seats are up or down.

Do those front specs mean everyone is running Icon, ADS, 4WP, or Eibach ?

Great vid
