Not exactly enthused about the locking diffs answer.

Not really enthused about any of the answers, but the locking diff is by far the worst.

Can we come up w/a name for the mysterious .400-.600"? Reminds my of the "magic bullet" from the Warren report. Could we call it the "magic half inch"?

Reference it as 13mm and everybody will end the debating....except maybe the Canadians! lol

“Later this month” like 3x then this coming week. interesting.

Later this month may later be revealed to actually mean sometime in November. ?

Last time they said 10mm. Where are you getting an extra 3mm?

Taken from LLOD video. Sure looks like a power outlet in the center console....

That is the active drain in the Bronco. When water level gets this high inside inside the cab the bilge pump turns on and drains thru this hole. :~}

This is a post I saw posted yesterday on Facebook. May add a bit of a piece to the puzzle.

Everyone is using those numbers. I don’t care if they’re accurate or not, the difference in height makes no difference to me. I just don’t get why the assumption is the marketing guy knows more than the engineer. I also don’t get why someone wants to use the numbers as hard facts then claim that they’re preliminary figures when someone uses them to go against what they think is right.

You're conflating the arguments of two different people. I'm going to assume the numbers are right until shown otherwise. When comparing Base to Big Bend the numbers work out perfectly. It doesn't make much sense that those are perfect and others are just guesstimates.

And you're using a vague answer (suspension is the same) and then inferring where the extra height comes from, when all we want is a direct answer.

The reason this matters is because a lot of people want to know if they can throw 35s on their Badlands without issue. Ford is going to say no matter what that you need Sasquatch, but whether or not the Sasquatch suspension is slightly taller helps people make an informed decision.

Is that similar to "very, very, very this month"?

I spent most of a career in marketing/sales....often wrong, but Never in doubt

Yes but that was "debunked" a long time ago...by an actual engineer, not a marketing guy. Now the marketing folks are going back to that story but this time it was 9mm not 1.2". Really this topic is alot of fun!?

Call in the English majors on the forum! We need language clarification on "later this"!

I don’t know that 3rd party info from an engineer to one guy on here, with no idea how the question was asked or interpreted ever really “debunked” every other thing we’ve seen or heard or calculated.
