Yeah this is true.don’t forget you get different bilstein system with SAS and if you are adding 35’s your 3rd brake light will have to be an aftermarket if you want to throw a 35“ on the tailgate and you will have to do the standalone upgrade for beadlock but the SAS is standard beadlock and 33”beadlock is 17x 8 vs SAS which is 17x8.5

Although, in my opinion, we’re talking about less than half of an inch of lift, which you can solve fairly easily with some spacers that cost a few hundred dollars.
I would also be more inclined to get the Sasquatch package if it actually came with real beadlock wheels/tires... but unfortunately DOT doesn’t allow that. That said, for those who really want the beadlock-capable wheels, they are available as a standalone option on the Badlands trim for $995. For most people, the $995 cost is probably still going to be worth it if you factor in the sway-bar disconnect.
The 3rd brake light is an interesting problem though—going to have to look into that one more. I‘ve seen several people on YouTube that have slapped on 37s on their base Badlands, and as far as I know they didn’t have to do anything special with the 3rd brake light. BUT, it seems like they must of done something, so I’m going to go back and watch some old videos to see what they did to solve that problem.
