Tape measurements: ride height & rear legroom of 2 door Badlands (w/ beadlock capable wheels + MT tires)

[Norcal351w]

I have 3 little ones. I'm just hoping there is enough room in the back seat of a 4 door for a booster and two car seats.

What about MIC=removable roof sections? Yay or nay?

I don't understand the question? Yay?

Both types of tops, either MIC or Modular....

2-door: Two pieces over the front seats, rear clamshell.
4-door: Two pieces over the front seats, one piece over the rear seat, rear clamshell.

The modular top ADDS:
2-door: Rear gunner hatch over the back seats, removable rear side windows.
4-door: Removable rear side windows.

Much more leg room than a Tacoma. That is one of the reasons I went with the Touareg initially. Had to fit my 6'1" son in the back sometimes. It is the same as what I current drive daily. Good leg room.

I do not think the passenger seat was all the way back. On that note, the representative who did the door open and back seat access demo on 2 door for us is 6'2" and he said front leg room is really good. When he is in passenger seat he can put the seat all the way back and stick his legs out straight.

That's good news as my sons are also over 6ft now and occasionally I still have to throw them in the backseat

Was the front driver seat on the four door pushed all the way back?

It was not. More room to go.

You answered it! I wasn't sure if the MIC was just one giant clamshell. or also offered removable sections above the seats.

Now... just need to see if I can afford any of the aforementioned hardtops.

I'm 6'2" so I'm more than likely going to have the seat all the way back. My only concern is if my kids will have any legroom. Once I've been able to assure that then I'm full steam ahead on the purchase.

Bronco Nation people probably freaked when you pulled out the tape measure!

They were all pretty cool about it. The black one was roped off so our tape measure was out a ways but nobody seemed to care that we were measuring.

Am I missing something? I don't see the legroom measurements of the 2 door.....

Sorry Colonial. It was roped off. @GiddyUp got them to demo the door open and access the back seat though. It is posted on another thread.

Do you have height one with the roof rack? I know I didn't snap that one, but was rather the "model" for it ?

Not there today or I would chase them down to demo. The representative who demoed the 2 door for us said he is 6'2". If someone there can get him to set up to drive in the 4 door you could get a shot of the rear seat room.

So...I want that look of the 4 door but want to save some $$....wondering what cost comparison will be to get Badlands from Ford non-sasquatch and then add 35" aftermarket rims/tires vs. going Wildtrak which comes with 35" tires. Is $2k enough for rims/tires installed? Build and Price can't come soon enough....

Rims and Tires (all 5?) for a decent set of both at 35s.... will quickly run you over $2k... The setup on the overland demo would come out to around $3k

For those of us that have issues reading the numbers on the tape measure.....

This is almost the exact same as my factory 2dr 2018 Rubicon with 33” BFGs.
It is about 39” like this pic and about 6.75” from the top of the tire to the bottom of the wheel well.
