A bronco show everything you can't get vs. jeep with everything you can have!!!Is the list of the 200 accessories that are being launched with the Bronco available yet?
Almost like its a 1940s design or something.Don't mean to insult anyone that has a Wrangler but the Bronco makes it look very dated.
I’ve owned 6 Wranglers and would agree 100%. That’s why I’m here ?Don't mean to insult anyone that has a Wrangler but the Bronco makes it look very dated.
Like I stated above, I don't like this squatted look. But i'd bet that any clearance issue with a properly offset 35" (as shown) on the HOSS suspension is minor if at all. I bet they limit travel on the sasquatch (just barely) to maintain 25mm clearance at full jounce and steering lock.Keep in mind that is a non SAS Bronco with aftermarket 35" tires (bigger then the SAS 35" tires). Without a lift you are going to run into some major tire clearance issues off road (like having that Jeep drag you out kind of issues).
ive noticed the same about the control arms. There’s a video of the Ford team testing at Rubicon (IIRC) and there’s a solid 30 second shot of the LCA as the truck is in motion. It looks like the range of motion is mostly angled greater than 90deg, if you were to measure from a plumb bob dropped from the LCA bolt. Wonder what the roll center looks like on this rig...I agree with most here that the Bronco isn't sitting right. Just look at the control arms. They are literally angled up. So its squatting more than it should. I bet it has something to do with preproduction spring rate + extra gear. Either way, it still has a few inches of jounce travel and obviously a boatload of rebound. Despite the look, if you have more rebound travel than jounce (assuming decent ground clearance) it will actually flex vastly better (as opposed to the other way around).
To be fair, that's kind of the point. It's an icon. It looks like a jeep and always has. I think they both look great. Bronco looks smaller than I thought it would next to it. Not in a bad way at all.Don't mean to insult anyone that has a Wrangler but the Bronco makes it look very dated.
Subscribed. Great work!
I was thinking the electric / hybrid was going to be a perfect opportunity for that. They have to take a chance at some point. I'm sure they have thousands of updated designs.Great pic! The Bronco looks great. It desperately needs a lift though.
The challenge for Jeep is to modernize but keep the same basic style. Think Porsche 911. Same basic shape for a long, long time now.
Chevy introduces the NEW "K5 Spark!"His and hers. Getting ready to make babies.
Actually no they didn't. The Rubicon/Moab videos were non-SAS Badlands Bronco's with 33" tires. They wanted to demonstrate a "normal" build without SAS (and I'm guessing getting more articulation). The engineers on the trail have stated the non-SAS Bronco's have more articulation (I think it was 1/2" - 1") over a SAS Bronco (I'm still not sure why since SAS has a lift built-in that you would think compensates for the larger tires). They also said they didn't use the sway bar disconnect on the Badlands (to prove they could run the trails without using it).Those Broncos had sas. This Bronco does not. It just has big 'ol tires... is what he means
Well, the Bronco is a fresh design... Makes me wonder when Jeep will do a slight refresh...Don't mean to insult anyone that has a Wrangler but the Bronco makes it look very dated.
