Anyone on here have more insight? Images Specs.

Could not find much information on the internet about what the differences are between Hoss 3.0 Wildtrak and Hoss 4.0 Raptor rack.

"Found on the 2022 Bronco Raptor. Includes: Unique steering rack, motor, tie rods"

"Severe-Duty Steering System and Performance Tuning. Ford Performance Parts also developed several new Bronco chassis components for the Bronco two- and four-door SUVs, including new severe-duty steering rack and tie rod ends to further improve steering system durability under high loads."

In the comparing the two photos below the top is my 3.0 and bottom one 4.0.
The only cast difference I could see it the case ribbing going across is complete on the 4.0, see right below the two casting marks that are about an inch apart.

We know of one swap having been done @BigMeatsBronco had info in his 3.0 thread. So we know it will work but is it worth it? 3.0 NB3Z-3504-M cost about $1,162.70+ 400.00 core + shipping, 4.0 cost about $1,719.86+400.00 core+shipping. ROI cost vs benefit/advantage.

Not sure there are any in stock.

I think the pic you are using is pre-production. They may actually be exactly the same. Since you still got the WT 3.0, snap us a side by side pic when you get your Braptor rack!

Yes correct pre-production photo. I zoomed in even more and highlighted in red the area of ribbing not on the 3.0. The 4.0 is not in stock at any of the distribution center I checked today.

@TheBraptor You have a 74Weld to install, "Mine just showed up today for my Bronco Raptor and I can not wait to get it in." Can you post some photos of your 4.0 Hoss rack once it's out? Would be help full. If you want to sell it. send PM.

Yeah I can post pictures, but I can not sell it I have to use all the internals from it to build the 74weld rack out.

I will I am waiting on the bronco to get back from the dealer hopefully this week or next. Its been there about a month waiting on CVs and a new rack. Hoping to get it all done next week and take it with me to EJS.

Also if you have a Bronco Raptor don't break your rack ford doesn't have any.

Mine is 2021 Wildtrak SAS, I have a defective 3.0 Hoss in the garage. Can't get another one due to the recall. I checked stock on the 4.0 today and the parts depots do not have any. Wanted this done before I go back to Moab in May.

I have no faith in any of the ford racks, after mine broke in Moab.
