I believe only difference between badlands and Sasquatch is tire size. Suspension should be identical. Tire size alone would only result in a 1 inch ride height increase.There has been much debate about suspension lift with various trims and Sasquatch Package. 10mm to 1.5" to 3" have been mentioned. I did a little analysis of overall height OAH vs tire size to come up with some answers using the Base as a baseline:
Base: OAH=71.9, Diff=0, Due to tire (30")=0, Due to Suspension=0
BB, OBX, BD: OAH=72.9, Diff=1, Due to tire (32")=1, Due to Suspension=0
Non Sas BL: OAH=73.8, Diff=1.9, Due to tire (32.7")=1.35, Due to Suspension=0.55
All Sas: OAH=75.2, Diff=3.3, Due to tire (34.4")=2.2, Due to Suspension=1.10
So my napkin math says BL gets, .55" Suspension lift and Sas gets 1.1" . This gives credence to the rumor there are three suspensions Base (Base, BB, OBX and BD), Badlands non Sas and Sas
So, I am not seeing 3” of suspension lift looking at the axle compared to the pan hard bar mount. The photo angles are different but the axle may be an inch lowered relative to the mount in the Bilstein shot, certainly not three though. Only thing I don’t know is if that Bilstein one is a Sasquatch with 315 MTs or a Badlands with 285 MTs.There has been much debate about suspension lift with various trims and Sasquatch Package. 10mm to 1.5" to 3" have been mentioned.

I used to think that too, but the difference is 1.5" so I'm beginning to believe there is a suspension difference, which might also explain the 10mm travel limitation on the Sas.I believe only difference between badlands and Sasquatch is tire size. Suspension should be identical. Tire size alone would only result in a 1 inch ride height increase.
In one of the sema vids (I think) the Ford guy said they were similar, but different part numbers, so not identical.I believe only difference between badlands and Sasquatch is tire size. Suspension should be identical. Tire size alone would only result in a 1 inch ride height increase.
No, the BB is a 255/75x17, the OBX is 255/70x18. The difference in aspect ratio 75 vs 70, makes up for the wheel size difference.Would the OBX be slightly higher due to the 18" wheel? Maybe splitting the BB/BD and BL tire difference?
no, only radius of tire will change overall height (when solving for only tire diameter change)Would the OBX be slightly higher due to the 18" wheel? Maybe splitting the BB/BD and BL tire difference?
