Agreed on max droop, but on a Sasquatch Bronco max droop is limited by the swaybar on a non-badlands and some sort of travel limiter on a Badlands. If you put a 2" level on a truck with no sway bar disconnect, then have a Badlands disconnected with both vehicles front tires at full droop, they would have very similar maxed out CV angles. In all likely good, the disco would still have more CV angle if the shocks are not the same part number.
Swaybars, disconnectable or full time acting, do not determine drop and wheel travel. You donātget extra travel from the disconnection. Swaybars only limit the travel differential between each side.
Not much feedback on them yet.
How do you like the Mickey Baja bosses? Any rubbing with 37's and 3" lift?I did a 3ā icon lift with the Broncbuster steering rack bushing and rpg one piece tie rods. steering feels tighter which I really like and have had no issues. running 37x12.5ā Mickey Thompson Baja bosses on stock sas wheels.
Love em! Nope no rubbing at all lock to lock on road or offā¦quiet on road too
Just my personal taste, but I think that lift makes it look too tall. Throws the proportions off or there's too much of a distance between the tires and fenders. I'll probably stick to something 2 inches max. Just enough to give the 35's extra clearance at the fenders and hopefully removing Ford's travel limiter on the Sasquatch.I did the 5" RC lift here on my BL non-sas with no installation issues. I've been really happy with how it turned out. My biggest concern was CV angles with a lift over the 2-3" supposed safety range, so I knew a diff drop was in order. My CV's before and after with the diff drop appear good to me.
The truck even aligned out great. Only downside is having to come up with some make shift grab handles for the kids until my powered running boards come in.
Diff drop is
...I highly suggest it. I made my own 1.5" drop which is about maximum you can drop with out chopping up the crossmember.
I like how the new knuckles have the tie rod attachment points located much higher, this allows the tie rod to remain "flatter" during the suspension movement. And likely less angle at full droop.I did the 5" RC lift here on my BL non-sas with no installation issues. I've been really happy with how it turned out.

Did the RC Kit include the diff drop or?I did the 5" RC lift here on my BL non-sas with no installation issues. I've been really happy with how it turned out.

It did. It included new front and rear crossmembers that drop the diff approx. 3". This required cutting out the center section of the rear crossmember to allow for the front driveshaft clearance. I took a chance since it lists on their site as not fitting the Badlands models and didn't have any or see anything that should cause issues. One thing to note is that the factory non-sas +50 offset wheels will not clear the new spindles. Since at the time my rims were on backorder; I purchased 1" spacers to make my factory rims effectively a +25 offset and other than of course looking tiny, they worked fine that way.
So they must also have a bracket to lower the Swaybar? Or what did you do there?
Yeah, the kit came with lowering blocks that tied in to the existing swaybar frame mounting locations and the rear cross member, and that dropped the entire bar down as needed.
