Badlands non squatch shock length same as Sasquatch shock length, but different.

@BigMeatsBronco as requested. NON SQUATCHED Badlands front bumpstop length 3.5"

I believe I got the correct pic. @BigMeatsBronco can correct me if wrong.

Good stuff. I've thought about finding some sasquatch fronts but beginning to think that's overkill. A different spring or 1/4" shim under or over the spring should make a BL front ride the same height as sasquatch with no change in down travel.

This is what I was thinking too, but am thinking of using a SVC perch collar on just the front for a 1" lift. They are looking into making a front only kit available.
Or go all in for the 2" kit and do all 4 shocks...

This is what I said from the start, longer bumps to keep the 35s off the fenders. It would only make sense to use the same shock and just change the bump between the 2 models. But what did I know back then, it was quickly dismissed. That is why when you made your thread I could not keep my eyes off of it.

The shocks are different though, if not in length, the reservoir for the Badlands is pointing up, and Sasquatch is pointing down. Why? Don't know. Is the perch location different between the 2 shocks?

Right now I have the RC 1" level to put on and I was going to use 2 of the 3 spacers in front to get about 3/4" and the leftover in the back. I don't want a lot of extra height.

So fronts are the same which goes back to my thought that it's the rears which are different. I'll get a measurement once I get my rear shocks removed. Probably early tomorrow, unfortunately my single action harbor freight spring compressor is failing me. It's partially user error on my part, but these springs are kicking its butt. Thinking the regular threaded rods will help me a bit, at least two rods should be better than just the one the single action uses.

Have you seen the Bilstein 6100 shocks for the Bronco coming out? Uses stock springs and different perch heights for lift adjustment. 0-1.9" height adjustment.
Would be more expensive then perch spacers, and is really doing the same thing, but with more adjustability in height selection.

Icon has just released some as well.

Non sasquatch Badlands rear bumpstop length.

 

[CyberOrangeBronco]

Looking back @BigMeatsBronco post and the bumpstop lengths front and back are the same.

Good catch, that is something that I didn’t notice and the first time I've seen anyone point this out.

 

[CyberOrangeBronco]

Hmmmmmm

 

[BigMeatsBronco]

Well we now know the shocks are different and the bumps are the same...interesting.

 

[RainbowStix]

Did y’all happen to grab part numbers of the bumpstop? Could be that one’s soft enough to reduce travel at a different point than the other..
Should be stamped on, mine was MB3C-5K570-EE on a rear Hitachi

Sorry to resurrect an old conversation, but how did that RC level work out? Putting a spacer in the back fit ok?

Decided against it in favor of Icon shocks. Haven't put those on yet either.
