Hey Everyone, just got my 2023 Bronco Badlands last week. I am loving it so far. As I’m really digging into deep dives on the suspension, I’m a bit perplexed as to what’s going on here lol. Window sticker didn’t mention SAS or the 35s w/ the black wheels.

Mine doesn’t have the crash bars removed so how do the 35s fit under here? Definitely sits 1.5-2 inches higher than my dad’s 4Dr Badlands on (worn down) 33s. From what I can tell it doesn’t have the SAS bump stops. Possibly original owner had a leveling kit and some SAS takeoffs installed at the dealer or aftermarket? My untrained eye obviously doesn’t see anything so I’m hoping you guys may have some more insight

To my semi-trained eye you’ve got Wildtrak wheels & tires on a non-Squatch Badlands. The reservoir on the front shocks are hanging up which is the non-squatch Badlands direction, the Sasquatch reservoirs hang down.

35's will fit under the non-sasquatch Badlands suspension (although I would have expected you to need to remove the front crash bars to avoid rubbing under all circumstances).

My Bronco Outer Banks with the non-sasquatch Badlands suspension is running 315/70R17 KO2's on a 17x9 +30 offset wheel without any issue.
