I think everyone is assuming the "extra clearance" option is in addition to what the Sasquatch gets. I'm not convinced, but I hope so. I think there will be a "roll-your-own-squatch" you can add that, 35 or 37s, lockers, etc..
SOOOOO are manual trans guys still "cockblocked"?

If the 2 inch lift is under $1000 ore even $800 as a option, I will ablsolutely get it no matter what trim I get. If the Base can get washout floor I would totally get a 4 door Base squach with a lift and tune. Probably sell the 17s and 35s and order some cheap US Steel 16s and 35" Super Swampers. Really hope the manual deal changes by 2nd model year, love that 2.7 V6 and squach.

Yes! I will 100% rock those 37s if
They are available. They make that 4 door with 35s look tiny. :rolleyes:

Its more of a unich situation, but yeah.
All I need is Base V6 Manual Squatch with drain holes.
Is it also a motorsports catalog item? (I know they don't use the term "motorsports catalog" anymore...but you know what I mean)

Where did you hear about a factory 2" lift?

Are we sure this 2” lift isn’t just the standalone “high-clearance suspension” from the Sasquatch package?

Are there any details on what this lift is? Does it involve longer springs/shocks or increase travel? Is it a cheap spacer lift that will negatively affect ride and performance? Lots of questions I would have before committing to it.
Exactly, is it just a body lift or a suspension lift. Lifts can accomplish 3 things. allows the fitment of bigger tires, can increase suspension travel (Not body a lift) & unfortunately increase center of gravity. Oh yeah & looks cool at the mall. If it's just a body lift I'll pass :cool:

Yeah, if it's a body or spacer lift, I'll wait for aftermarket. There will be plenty of choices eventually.

Touché. In that case I would love to see the 1.2” lift as a stand-alone option. I want the Sasquatch look more than all the internal performance bits. Lol

K folks I gotta ask here cause I don't wana start a new thread just to be bashed again by the kool aid parade. ANYBODY got any nut&bolt detail on any of the various lift packages that are getting tossed around? (DON'T trash me for saying this now...it's true) Lifting an IFS truck is NOT like lifting a Jeep. a suspension lift on a Jeep...or similar SFA will gain both height and flex. W/IFS the opposite is true (sometimes). You GENERALLY (DON'T beat me up about saying this!) gain height and LOSE flex. As such telling me "an inch here, 2 inch there" doesn't give me wood till I know where that inch or inches come from!

As far as I know there is no info, which is what several of us have pointed out. Without knowing where that 2 inches comes from, there's no way I'd know if I want it or not.

Ya same here. I'd wana see what is getting installed. Actually I would not mind at all installing it myself...which is the reason for my above question. My old bronco has a hockey puck lift and I had planned on doing that like day 1 when I get my 2021. I wonder if hockey pucks get me to 37s? I'd be happy w/that since as a clutchsmoker I'm banned from squatch!

I'm hoping it will be easy enough to change out the shocks/springs without changing control arms for additional lift and travel. That rear suspension looks a little complicated though. Certainly not as easy as new leaf springs.

Aftermarket may be a bit behind.
