I don’t think 37s are doable if you plan to really offroad it. You need 3" of lift to not have any rubbing.
That doesn’t make any sense based on what has been posted and tested. 2.3” over Sasquatch up front should be plenty of lift for 37s. It’ll be interesting to hear what the real world experiences are.

Might depend on wheel offset 🤷. There have been forum members able to get bfg 37’s (smaller 37s) on stock suspension with no rub with the right offset (1/4” wheel spacers if I remember correctly; 0 offset caused rub). And I believe Oscar (ACFab) was running smaller 37s on stock suspension and wheels with just a 1” level up front

We wheel with a gentleman on 37s and 2.5 perch lift and he rubs. 3” is the sweet spot for 37s if you wheel and it just looks better too.

He has a 2.5” perch lift on a Sasquatch Bronco?

It was a standard Badlands, not sasquatched.
If that's the case then a SAS badlands is .5" taller than non sas badlands and would explain why only 2.3" lift on the eibach potentially could cause no rub

Not seeing how a half inch more lift would constitute no rub running 37's. At full stuff, he would still be up in the fenders, either front or rear.

So is a SAS Base and a Wildtrak the same height?

Frankie945 is .5 taller than me and I only have a 1" leveling kit in the front.

Just curious??

Well the poster earlier said you need around 3" to not rub on a non-sas badlands, and these eibach springs give you 2.3" extra lift for SAS (2.8" over non-sas badlands if you account for the extra .5" SAS broncos give) the math checks out. That bronco in your picture looks like stock non-sas springs with just a 1" level. Of course it's going to rub! Unless you're saying it has a rear 2.5" shock collar which it definitely doesn't appear to have. That rake is insane even with the heavy steel bumper and winch!

Just saw your last question. I think the heavy winch and bumper have something to do with it.

I agree. All 3 of us are running a bumper/winch combo. Goes back to my original thoughts, that Eibach didn't consider the bumper/winch combo in these springs. More designed for mall crawler applications or light trail riding.

Could be just one line in their new product lineup like OME springs have their heavy load marketed springs. I won't ever be running a winch because I don't want to lose my ACC and I'll wheel with others so this could still be my ideal setup once someone can confirm no rub.

Very possible.

I have the RPG perch collars on my Sasquatch. I think they’re 2.25”. Wheels are 0 offset. My 37” Nitto Ridge Grapplers rub a little bit at full lock.

Moving to the Eibach Coilover setup shortly, hopefully that does the trick.

I’m not sure which Bronco Eibech used that measured a 2.3” lift on the front, but if you’re Bronco has a 2.7, a 4 door and/or is a Badlands each of these could reduce that 2.3“ a little bit. These are some, if not all, the factors that Ford considered when determining which of several different OEM springs to use. This might also explain why some are seeing less lift than others.
