'21 ManSquatch / SelfSquatch Black Diamond Build

[Bronco Pilot]

Great looking build though. It definitely looks like they sized the Bronco arches with 35’s in mind

Did you need ailment after you installed that lift I will be installing the same one.

Yes, anytime you mess with suspension you probably need an alignment. The shop that did my lift kit is having some trouble getting the alignment specs. First time they thought they had the specs, it didn't have any caster or camber in the alignment so the guy didn't end up doing it since you can obviously adjust caster and camber on the broncos. They are trying to get the correct specs. If they can't, then I may just take it into the dealer. It drives perfectly fine without an alignment, just long term it would be bad for tire wear if I dont get an alignment.

How has acceleration changed with the wheel size upgrade?

It's probably slightly slower than stock, but not noticeable enough to not throw 35's on your bronco.

What’s the plan for those steelies? Possibly for sale?

Was planning on keeping as spares, but willing to sell if someone made an offer.

Hello, my name is Kyle and I live in Virginia. I was a 7/19/2021 build date and received my Bronco on 7/30. I plan on doing some casual off-roading on the eastern shore and out in West Virginia. I will use this thread to post what I have already done to the bronco and update it as I modify it. Once I get her dirty, I will get some good off-road pics. Enjoy

Thanks for the pictures! I have a 2 door BD on order in carbonized gray. Love seeing pictures of the BD, especially with those rims.
Are you near Virginia Beach? I still have yet to see a 2 door in person.

Looks great, you should definitely keep the original as spares, the smaller wheels & tires should be good for winter too and the snow and ice wear tires, especially nobbies, quicker than some realize; save the more expensive rubber for summer fun.

What are you going to get? Sixty cents on the dollar, or whatever for the originals to someone looking for a deal, but really when you add all the out the door cost to buy and mount, do you even get that much?

 

[Mustang Mike]

That looks exactly like the spec I ordered but 2.7 Auto!

Too bad I was built 7/23 and its sitting at dirt mountain!

Oh well, Nice rig though man!

 

[Soultides]

Awesome set up! I drove a 2 door at the Off Rodeo in New Hampshire. ( it was VB too but a Base Sasquatch.) Definitely not changing to the 4 door now.

 

[redone17]

Goddamn beautiful. Almost wishing I didn’t have a kid and a dog. Haha.

Nice selfsquatch, I'm not particularly a fan of black wheels but this combo looks clean. Thanks for sharing

 

[edgeflyer]

That's a nice looking rig, but if you didn't pony up, you can't claim anysquatch.
