New option! 2022 Wildtrak HOSS 3.0 with Fox Internal Bypass

[flip]

The whole steering setup for current models (there are 3 variations) is only $800ish so hopefully these will be available in the near future.


I know somebody who will, if anybody will. Hey @flip what's the pricing and availability look like on the knuckle-to-knuckle steering for this new 4th steering option? Any way to tell if swapping to the upgraded rack will require programming changes?

Job One closes Thursday so none of this stuff is really listed anywhere with much clarity. Won't know anything about part cost or availability anytime soon.

I don’t see why Ford would not have the heavy duty rack and tie rods a standard feature.

Ford could just simplify their trims down to 4 trims to minimize customer confusion. Raptor, base, badlands, Outerbanks. Everglades could just be an add on package to any of the models.

But what do I know. I’m not in the Ford marketing department.

I tried to have the HOSS 3.0 added to an order today that I placed about a month ago and he said their system wouldn't let him add it. He's going to keep trying this week to see if the Ford system is just glitchy since they just added it.

Called dealer and added this with the HD rack to our existing Wildtrack order. So pumped!

Not as long as it has that unsightly snorkel/appendage and only comes with the 2.3L.

And you only gain 3” fording how DUMB....a SAS with 2” lift and 37s can do the same.

I want to know more about these hoop steps.

Is this a new option for the 2022 Wildtrak's? Found on Build and Price, and didn't see it mentioned anywhere else.

Maybe I missed something… but can someone clear this up for me? The Base Bronco trims already come with the “HOSS Suspension.” The Badlands trims, as well as the Sasquatch models, also come with the “HOSS Suspension” but with added Bilstein shock components.

So what is defined as HOSS 1.0 vs HOSS 2.0? And what makes HOSS 3.0 or 4.0 so much better?

Looks like upgraded Fox 2.5 shocks, beefier tie rods and steering racks.

My take based on limited knowledge:

HOSS 1.0 - standard suspension on all non-SAS/Badlands trims.
HOSS 2.0 - Stock Badlands/any trim with SAS package.
HOSS 3.0 - Wildtrack with this package, upgraded bits with better shocks than standard SAS.
HOSS 4.0 - Raptor only. Even better bits with larger shocks that actively adjust in real time to current road conditions based on user settings.

Base suspension 1.0. Badlands and squatch 2.0.

Just talked to my dealer, and he said he couldn’t add the HOSS 3.0 to my order yet. He said it can take up to 30 days for new options to be available to add to my order. Does that sound right?

Edit: Found out it will be available to add March 8th to existing reservations only, and will not be available to walk ins just like Raptor and Everglades. Advising to 99 order if this is something that you want to add.

Looks like the HOSS 3.0 package will finally get the steel rear bumper on the Wildtrak that I’ve been wanting.

Being that the option became available today it can take some time for it to show in our order banks, could take a day, a week, or even a month but likely will show up within a few days.

I wonder if it’s a parallax of that and they couldn’t get the Fox shocks on time for launch. It would make more sense why they were trying to segregate the Wildtrak as being the desert runner but it ended up just being Sasquatch and some gloss black paint.

Shrewd

And why in the hell is this not available on the Badlands....
