I noticed you guys replaced your fenders. Will your setup work with 37” tires and stock fenders?
This is a grey area... By our definition, no - they won't clear stock fenders; they won't even clear ADV fenders without a bit of work. We did a bunch of reading when we configured this build and talked to Both ADV and Fuel Off-Road, both recommended the same, ADV Fenders and 0 offset on a 9" wide to fit 37x12.5. This is what John at ADV runs on his Bronco and said he's only rubbed a couple times in extreme off-road situations.

We had the Fenders and liners installed and 0 offset wheels, pulled the coils on our kings and found the tires hit the fender itself (on the top of the wheel arch and back of the front wheel well) and the fender liner. The answer we got from them was that they didn't cycle it but, in wheeling the bronco, got very little rub.

We had to do some customer work to the fender, build our own inner fender and combine it with the factory and run the factory Sasquatch wheel to properly cycle a 37x12.5".

Others are comfortable running a 37 where fellow forum members or manufacturers have advised them they clear without cycling it. The issue with this, it only accounts for SOME of the potential clearance issues. Last thing we want is to offer incomplete advice resulting in someone ripping a fender off in an extreme off-road environment so we stick to our guns on the 37" tire fitment.

37s and 0 offset wheels do rub on stock fenders and sas flares.
When articulated . I hear it all the time when off road

I wonder if they did anything to address the drive line angles.

While our rear control arms are slightly longer to center a completely bumped 37" into the wheel well, we kept near factory pinion angle. After hundreds of miles tested both street and dirt, we have not encountered any reason to adjust the pinion angle.

Hoping for some updates soon.
👀 Keep on the look out!

Thanks, I was actually referring to the CV angles not the actual drive line. Will your kit include a Dif drop?

Is there any official release date yet? I looked at the website today and it was giving me a 404 page not found error on the Bronco.

They are actually out of business
Unfortunately,It took too long to make everything.
Sad because there was definitely potential there.
I know your post is a joke....but Carli doesnt rush anything.... they do things thier own way and only release products when they know they are right and customers wont be the ones Beta testing them. Anyone who runs their RAM or Ford 3/4 and 1 ton kits knows this.....

My uploaded and digitized consciousness will probably be having too much fun with fusion powered hovercars and superluminal starliners to care about their kit for the Bronco. But I dunno, maybe I'll be able to afford the cloud storage to remember everything and I will reminisce fondly of my meat prison days.
