  1. Iron Range MN - Learning to wheel

    The instructor recommended to run between 15 to 20 psi. I was running around 18 psi the first day and took it down to 15 psi the second day. I have a few pictures where you can see the tires taking some pretty good flex in the rock crawling section. So I think running 15 psi for those is the...
  2. Iron Range MN - Learning to wheel

    @Tdub0527 I agree completely with the review. I have been slowly building up my rig and it was great to put it to the test! I have a Fabfours stubby bumper, a Smittybilt X2O winch and the Bilstein 6100 shocks with the stock Sasquatch springs. I also did not had much wheeling experience but Mark...

    Midwest Bronco Bros & Sis

    I just signed up as well. Looks like there will be two Cyber Orange Bronco's!
  4. Minnesota - Indianhead WI area - Roll Call

    I live south of the Twin Cities and moved here 5 years ago. Lived in Orange County and North Texas before coming here. The Midwest has been my favorite place to live. CA is too expensive and Texas is too hot! I got a full stable. I was able to find a Badlands 7-speed last winter and I picked up...
  5. Bilstein 6100 shocks installed on Badlands Sasquatch - feedback review & photos

    I also have an aftermarket bumper and a winch. So the front is a lot heavier.
  6. Bilstein 6100 shocks installed on Badlands Sasquatch - feedback review & photos

    From driving it a bit more now, I think the best way to explain it is that you feel a bit more the smaller bumps (stiffer ride) but it soaks up better the big bumps. From my comparison, the maximum extension is the same, so it will not give you more total articulation. But since you are riding...

    Fab fours stubby bumper, winch capable. I put in there a Smittybilt X20 10k winch.
  8. Bilstein 6100 shocks installed on Badlands Sasquatch - feedback review & photos

    These Bilstein are different than the stock Sasquatch. They are the 6100 line. They have a 2.5" diameter body. They are heavier duty than the stock Sasquatch shocks. Or at least that is how Bilstein markets them, as an upgrade for better off road performance and durability.
  9. Bilstein 6100 shocks installed on Badlands Sasquatch - feedback review & photos

    This do not change the maximum CV angle extension. The shocks are exactly the same length as stock, when fully extended. At ride height, the CV angle will change slightly, but I do not think it matters that much. Bilstein is the OEM supplier for the Sasquatch shocks so I trust that these shocks...
  10. Bilstein 6100 shocks installed on Badlands Sasquatch - feedback review & photos

    I designed them myself and had them made by a sheet metal shop. They are made from 304 stainless, about 3/16" thk. They look pretty thin, but I designed them to take around 300 lbs each. I have them secured with a stainless high strength hose clamp to the stock rock rails, so I can take them...
  11. Bilstein 6100 shocks installed on Badlands Sasquatch - feedback review & photos

    I am getting around 39.5" in the front and 40.5" in the back. So still a small rake, with the front about 1" lower than the rear.
  12. Bilstein 6100 shocks installed on Badlands Sasquatch - feedback review & photos

    I was expecting it to be level, but it actually still has a very small rake. Looks just a tad bit lower in the front. Is probably because I added around 100 lbs extra weight with the bumper and winch. If you have a stock bumper, I heard it is leveled.
  13. Bilstein 6100 shocks installed on Badlands Sasquatch - feedback review & photos

    Just got my Bilstein 6100 shocks installed on my Badlands Sasquatch. I used the highest circlip location and love the outcome! Install was not bad, probably 6 hours total. I recommend to do the fronts first since they are a bit harder. The rears are a piece of cake. Since the springs are more...
  14. Front End Torque Specs

    350 lb-ft is a lot of freaking torque for that lower bolt. Is almost the same torque you get from the 2.3 L engine!
  15. Blistein adjustable setup?!

    I have them on preorder. I have a Badlands Sasquatch and I decided against trying to fit 37's. But these look to give you better performance and a couple of inches of extra clearance, which will be perfect for off roading. 35's are already amazing for 99% of the trails out there and with a...
  16. Custom made dash and tower speaker harness adapter

    Hey All, I do not have materials yet. Honestly I am thinking that any day now a company like metra will come with an adapter. Things have gotten really busy at home and do not foresee I will have enough time to keep making the adapters. Plus, I was just trying to get some of the money back that...
  17. Custom made dash and tower speaker harness adapter

    I already ran out of the materials I had on hand. I am thinking of making more but it might take a few weeks for me to get more materials.
  18. 2.3 Shaping up to be the better Engine?

    The brakes are one of the car systems designed with more redundancy and tolerance for failures. Typically if the vacuum booster fails, you loose the assistance of the vacuum, so the pedal becomes much harder to press, but you can still make the brakes work if you push harder on the pedal. But is...
  19. Custom made dash and tower speaker harness adapter

    I changed the rear speakers today. Took some pictures to share. I am surprised how much fuller the sound is just with the speaker change. I can compare it to the Bose Premium Audio on my wife's Nissan Armada, and I actually like it more now in the Bronco, just because of the speakers. The Armada...
