Ford Performance Beadlocks on Sasquatch wheels - experience / feedback?

[Hockeydad55]

For those of you running the ford performance beadlock on your Sasquatch wheels and 37” tires how are they working out and are you happy with them. I would like to do the same just curious if your tires loose air Thx.

Never had a problem with air loss. I run my 37x13.5" tires at 25psi front and 23psi rear on the street. I have had 2 bolts break right next to each other and had to have a machine shop get the hardened bolts out for me. I've now got another wheel with a broken bolt, so I'll probably be doing that again shortly.

I do not have any wheel spacers, but I get poke from having Non-Sas flares.

I never liked the spare tire delete. For some reason, I LIKE this one. VERY nice looking "Bobtail".

I pay someone else to bolt those things together. I ain't got time for that kind of real work. Get my own hands dirty? Pfft

Ford did a really good job with them. They don’t lose air nor do they noticeably loosen. I think with over 10,000 miles we’ve only had five bolts that took a little movement to torque back up.

Definitely use TEFGEL on the bolts to prevent galvanic corrosion. Anti-seize is good, Tefgel is better.

Question do you think a stronger lug nut would help or just make sure to anti-seize them.

I'm too much of a wimp to lift up a 135lb spare tire and accurately ring toss it around the backup camera.

Firm believer that a 37” with non-sas fenders is the most aesthetically pleasing stance for the Bronco. Just looks perfect.

I don't run a spare, however my rock monsters and E rated 37x12x17 TSLII only weigh in at 110, seriously doubt most tires with stock steel getting near that!

I'll roll my spare onto the scale tonight and take a picture. If it's above 130lb's you owe me a beer

Well shucks, no free beer for me. It only weighs 115 lbs, but I assure you I am still too wimpy to dead lift 115lbs and accurately ring toss it around a $300 backup camera with only a 93mm hub bore.
