Advice on Suspension Upgrade?

[cduhon]

I’ve drove myself crazy researching this forum and online to decide what suspension option I want. So much so, I figured it was time to reach out asking for help. I received my bronco in March and immediately put a readylift 2” puck lift on. Since, I’ve added front and rear bumpers, front skid plate and rock rails. Plenty of weight all around. Well… these stock hitachis and the puck lift aren’t really doing the job. What was once a decent ride is now terrible.

I’m thinking if I get a pair of bilsteins and add a collar lift, it should do the job. I’m really only looking for better ride quality. Most of my trail rides aren’t extreme and I’m on pavement 80-90% of the time.

Any other recommendations are appreciated, but what do y’all think? Will I be happy if I go that direction?

i added King 2.5 coiler shocks to my Badlands and it really improved the on road handling and off road ride. Not cheap at around 4k. the sas bilsteins it came with are pretty good and you can pic up a used pair on the forum for around $800.

I have a badlands that I did have the perch lift in... The install didn't go great... (By the dealership) so I opted to switch the whole thing out for the Bilstien 6100 and reused my badlands springs. They ride great, lifted it up nice.. and a very cost effective way of getting some more performance!

Get a set of base badland or Sas take-offs, many listed in the for sale forum for reasonable cost.

+1 for SAS take offs, then if more lift is desired, eibach +2" springs...considering going this route on my SAS BL

The Eibach kit is a good setup for the price point.
