Cactus Gray WildTrak on 37s - No lift

[staylormade]

By the way fellow Broncowners, if his goal was to make his rig look cool as shit…. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. Just appreciate how it looks people and stop judging everybody. Oh wait i forgot, this is the internet, my bad…. Judge away lol. But seriously, maybe your goal is not his.

How'd you get the red "R" in BRONCO?

here’s a few more shots out in the wild along with one beside my daily driver to show the massing

This is sick. I'm kinda glad I've waited a bit to fulfill my order because I'm now thinking I want Cactus Gray over Oxford White. Wow-o-wow!

Nice Falken tires!

Nice play.

Hoosier fuckin' daddy.

This place makes the best vinyl decals at cheap prices. He sends u 2 of them in case u screw up the install. U can buy the whole bronco letters in different colors or just the “R” in select colors

Why do this to a Wildtrak? You have almost zero articulation for the suspension. They do look great, but I don't understand why someone would spend so much more on a vehicle with a more capable suspension to hamstring it in this way. Was it a matter of wanting interior accents that only came with the WT?

Genuinely asking

Because he had the money and that's what he wanted.

Quick update, slight rubbing when I take it off-road, headed in for a lift

What if you just added the perch collars?
$249 plus about 5hrs labor(book)
It would give you 2.5” on the front & 1.5” in the rear.

I agree but i also don't understand how he's got poke with Sasquatch fenders. not sure how those are +12 .. but i get lost in offset sometimes

not sure. +12 offset should keep the tires tuck in. Spacers maybe?

So, you're saying his 37's will rub.
OP says it is not rubbing.

37's are only ~1" greater radius than Sasquatch tires, not 2.

IF he's not rubbing, then no change to articulation.

I've seen reports of both. 37's on Sasquatch wheels reportedly rub. Spacing wheels out further reduces interference.

It seems hard to make a definitive statement at this point on 37's fitting with adequate clearance when you take into account changing wheel specs.

Also need to take into account sway bar connected/disconnected. Badlands appears to use the same Sasquatch suspension as all other Bronco models, so logic follows the decrease in up-travel Ford designed into Sasquatch was designed around Badlands with sta-bar disconnect enabled, since that configuration would push the tires furthest into the wheel well.

Perhaps a fully loaded WT with the highest spring rates, sway bar connected, and different wheel offset will not rub at full articulation.

Also, peoples definition of rubbing and testing method differ. A lot of tire sizes will fit on the street for daily driving.

I'd like to see Ford introduce high clearance fenders for fitting 37x12.5 tires on Badlands Sasquatch (stock wheels, no spacers, no lift). Then I'd just need to add the upgraded steering components they teased, but have yet to release.

how are you coming up with "37's are only ~1" greater radius than Sasquatch tires, not 2."?

Specs for stock SAS tires are Outside Diameter (in.) 34.4. The 37's in question have a diameter of 36.6 that's 2.2 inches

The radius difference is 1.1 in
Diameter difference is 2.2 in

No way You don't rub.... Unless those tires are measuring out under 36"

I say it rubs as well under full load

Radius is always half of the diameter.
Radius is what matters when fitting larger tires. It will tell you what lift you’re getting (contact to the ground relative to the axle) and where you’ll be rubbing (contact to the vehicle)

edit: Width is important too, in fitting larger tires but my response was dealing only with height measurement.
