Also the rear stabilizer bar.
The rear stabilizer bar is on all 22 Sasquatch package equipped broncos, not just HOSS3.0.

They were pretty quiet about that.

The HD steering rack will be the most complicated part, other than that you should be able to swap over the Fox2.5 and performance tie rods just like any other tie rod and shock/coil swap.
Thank you, any additional insight into the difficulty of the HD steering rack.

I'm probably most interested in the upgraded tie rods given the failures we've seen. Has there been any mention when the individual parts will become available?

Do you have any comparisons to a SAS suspension for this? Unfortunately my Wildtrak was built the week they released this and I was bummed I missed out. I enjoy the SAS shocks however I feel like the slow speed compression is a tad stiff. Where it really shines is above 30mph, but depending on the terrain I cant really go that fast all the time.

The dilemma I'm in is if its worth it to buy some HOSS 3.0 take offs or if at that point I might as well just buy some Fox Performance Elite DSC/King Shocks.
My buddy has the 4 door version wildtrak, his is a stiffer ride in comparison. A nice ride without question, but it's definitely and noticeably smoother with the fox shocks. Quality aftermarket shocks can be tuned anyway you like, just make sure you find a good shop that knows either how to order it to your specs or can rebuild it to get it setup to your liking. Changing spring rates, valving and even the nitrogen pressure can make drastic changes. The fox shocks on the 3.0 package should be able to be setup differently inexpensively.

Nice!! I like the cantilever rear shocks, you don't see a setup like that very often.

I built one for my ranger and loved how it made my truck a total sleeper. I still had an empty stock bed, but underneath I had deavers, extended shackles and double bypasses.

I'm still waiting to see who eventually goes crazy on the rear of these broncos and extends the links to get more travel. Right now everyone is pretty much just modifying the stock suspension and using stock pivots.

I just received our long awaited Wildtrak last night with the new Hoss 3.0 package. I was extremely surprised how smooth it drove, and it's actually comparable to the ride on our Gen3 Raptor with the 37 package! This is a 2 door with such a small wheel base and i didn't imagine it would ride as good and smooth as it does. It soaks up road imperfections without any body motion. The only time i notice the shorter wheel base is over the bigger and longer road depressions where the rear end drops in when the front end is coming out of it. A friend of mine has the 4 door Wildtrak with the standard suspension and it does ride great, but i wouldn't compare it the ride of a Raptor.

If you are on the fence on if the Hoss 3.0 package is worth it.... get it!!

Now if i can tame some of the wind noise I'll be set.

Marc,

For MY2023, Is the HOSS 3.0 still available on just the Wildtrak or other models as well?

Is the Ride Height the same as the Bilstein HOSS 2.0?

Thanks
