Heard somebody wants to see a muddy Bronco! ;) It is monsoon season here in SE AZ! So, I did say “less” mud, it is never clean…
Also, here it is before the Bilstein 5100s. My aim was to set it to factory Sasquatch height and it is pretty much there (possibly a hair taller)...
As others have pointed out, the stock “35s” are on the shorter side and nearly every other make of claimed 35” tire is taller. The difference isn’t huge but it is noticeable. Will you notice the width change? Yes, I think you will. That may be even more noticeable than the height. Running a...
I agree that Fox and especially King shocks can ride very plush. The best ride I’ve ever had was my coilover setup using King by-pass shocks (with over a foot of travel). Having low and high speed independent adjustments for both rebound and compression may be the only way to be truly happy...
Right. It is my understanding that the yellow ESCVs are the same for any Badlands or Sasquatch except for springs (length/rate). I meant to mention that I saw the folks at Shock Surplus say that they purposely tested at lower ride height and found the 5100s under-performed at higher speeds...
I’m on the same journey and considered all of the same alternatives…
My Bronco is a 2D Badlands, non-sasquatch, on 35 MTs (35x11.5). I am a big fan of the Nitto Trail Grapplers in (C-load rating) and run them at low pressure. I run them on the lower side at 26 PSI cold, but most of my driving...
Haha, nice! Thank you. It actually exceeded my expectations too. I think for red, I'd just go black as well. For reference I'm using Krylon all-in-one Dark Metal Metallic. If I could not find something that matched, ordinary black would be fine -- and ties the unpainted fenders together...
It can definitely happen, but the vast majority for me are down low. I should also say that using the Sasquatch fenders with “skinny 33s” (or 35s) is a great setup out here. There were far fewer paint impacts from that change alone. We’re in monsoon season now, and there is much less dirt/mud...
Thanks, yes -- totally agree. PlastiDip and related are very good also.
I have even done wheels with decent results...but wanted something more durable this go around.
While Sasquatch fenders helped quite a bit, the factory Goodyear MTs were just too much of a rock thrower to keep chips off my door and surrounding. I switched to Nitto Trail Grappler MTs in 35x11.5 (same as my Jeep and plenty of fender coverage for both). I love these Nittos -- but the damage...
I was curious if this was something that others have tried. This thread popped up in my search...
So my situation is a bit different but with the same outcome -- I have a non-Sasquatch 2DBLM and put on Sasquatch fenders.
This was surprisingly easy and drama free. I plan to continue running...
That's good to know and appreciate your sharing this!
So, despite my unit, above, not working completely it turned out to be a happy accident for my particular use-case...
I have two OEM working keys/fobs and wanted this for a hide-a-key setup when outdoors beyond cell coverage. For a little...
Right, that's a fair question and think that is along the lines of the problem now. See picture, however, and it calls out the Bronco specifically. That paired with the comments about it working fine for the Bronco...
Hi all — I have what appears to be a slightly different issue. I have successfully programmed an aftermarket fob, but it cannot operate the locks. The battery in the fob tests fine and I swapped in another known good battery without success. I followed the programming directions here and it...
