Kodiak's BS, riding around with dogs, day drinking, and sometimes working on the Bronco thread

Rear Badlands coilovers and Camburg in. Sitting 1 inch higher than stock. Time to start on the front. I’m too old to be working on the floor of my garage.

Just need a Bronco to put them on.

These are my tires of choice once I can't stand the stock Duelers on my BB anymore.

Front is so much easier than the rear, even though none of it is too bad.

Badlands suspension rides great and added an inch of lift.

Any idea when you will get yours?

I see you dropped the inner mount of the LCA, I saw this in a video a few days ago, looks easier than releasing the upper ball and (especially) the axle shaft...Good Job!! Did you remove or just disconnect the stabilizer bar?

I removed it to get better access to the LCA bolts. You could probably do it without, but was just 4 bolts holding it.

I think this method is easier. You will need a realignment, but should have one regardless of which way you do it.

Got the MXT275 in today with a 6dB antenna.

I saw that video the other day too, and it looked way easier. How off was the allignment after reinstalling, assuming you tried to match the previous guage marks?

Why would you call a black Bronco blue?


I kid. Looks great!

Close enough that I gave it a thorough test on pavement and off-road, but it does pull to one side. I wouldn’t want to put 100s of miles on before realignment.

I was originally a 1/3 build date, but like all the other manual Sasquatch packages I got bumped to 2/14. So who knows man
