2022 Badlands Stabilizer Bar

[thompsdw]

Looking at a 2022 badlands. Doesn’t have the button on the dash but the sticker says FRONT STABILIZER BAR. Does anyone know for the 22 if that means it has the disconnect but not activated other than GOAT modes (like rock crawl)?

something is up with it not having the button.

Might not be a real badlands but a close copy and being sold as one.

Might have had some kind of repair and the buttons are not correct.

Ford might have built it wrong.

I would say check the VIN and see what it comes back as and see what else you can find on the VIN.

Agreed. Sounds fishy. No disconnect button = not a badlands. Is it a Sport?

Maybe I am wrong. I am looking at pics to verify while it is being shipped (Carmax). There are 5 buttons - hazard, TTA, front lock, rear lock, and then the SBD in the pictures. I just thought when it had the lockers and disconnect that there were no switch spaces left, but this one has a space. Pictures aren't great though.

If it is manual there is an empty spot on the left. ( No trail turn assist).

I don't think it has the SBD after looking at this picture? That is the best pic I can get. I see TTA and the two lockers.

This is in no way the best picture you can get, hahaha.

I have a manual Badlands and it leaves a space for my Bronco's good luck charm/protector.

This is a Badlands hero switches w/manual

Sway Bar Disco is literally the first switch.

TTA means it is an automatic and there is no way it could be a Badlands--report it.

It's that a MT? What color are the accents? Those are changeable, but would be a pita/expensive to change all with factory parts.

if you have the VIN, you can look up the actual mulroney sticker

It's either NOT a Bad Lands or a bad repair. Either way, don't buy it.

I screwed up. For some reason I always get the Badlands and Wildtrack mixed up. I guess I just need to decided how important the SBD is for us. Other than that it is optioned perfectly for us. I know there are a lot of threads on this. I would order one if it would only come in during this century.

Seems like others were hype-focused on the missing Hero Button that they overlooked the sandstone dash. That color was standard on WT and optional on the Big Bend.
