Understatement of the year right here. The dealer did a (IIRC) 1.5" leveling kit on my wife's old F150 a few years back for about $200 parts and labor, and all it was was spacers. It was all for looks, no wheeling in that grocery getter. Even with inflation I would expect them to be able to do all four corners of a Bronco for $600.
solid aluminum is best, but really any name brand ones (zone, readylift, iconā¦) will be fine For 1ā on road.
I'm a little confused here. The OP has a non-Sas Base. My Badlands has a factory 2" lift by comparison, yet the CVs are fine. Doesn't the amount of allowable lift depend on the trim?
Yes and no. You can go as high as you like w/ any trim but there are trade offs. In theory OP could probably go 3" if he wanted and have roughly the same CV angles as sasquatch but it will affect the Hitachi performance vs. your OEM sasquatch Bilstein's. IMO 2" spacer lift on any trim would be max.
No you do not...just need a wheel with proper offset and pull the crash bars.
@Joemama, what is the offset on those wheels? I want to pull the trigger on some aftermarket wheels but not really sure what offset is needed. I have a Badlands (non-SAS). Looking to add the Fabtech 2021+ Ford Bronco 4WD 1.5in Leveling System if needed to get some 35x12.50 tires on there.no lift or spacers. I may add 1" or so later
Respectfully, I think to match Sasquatch CV angles you can go 1.1" on a non Sas most trims and .6" on a Badlands non Sas. And to avoid diff drop, UCA and steering issues I would say 2" lift max most trims, 1" Sasquatch and 1.5" non Sas Badlands.
I could have worded that better...roughly same CV angle as squatch w/ 2" of lift.
There are certain posters here, like you and @crenca (who liked your post), whose posts you can take as truth, but my poor reading comprehension led to my confusion.
