Chris over at LiteBrite Nation installed the new Bilstein 6100s on the Bronco. Better results than anticipated.

I ran TRD Pro 6112's on our 4runner and loved them. Excited to see these now for the Bronco, they will likely be what I put on this bronco unless we see 8100 series releasing.

Any idea how these larger diameter struts without a reservoir would perform compared to the factory badsquatch struts with the reservoir? Price is nice at about $1,300 for all four, but I don't want to sacrifice performance/ride quality.

Are these the same as the private labels for Ford Performance that are still not released? Think the body diameter is the same and no external reservoir is same

EDIT: didn't realize badlands-/SAS-only...Ford Performance version (made by bilstein) is supposedly Hitachi-only...so what's the difference, just the valving or something?

I'm hoping for the 8112's ;)

Why wouldn’t you just put the Fox’s in from the HOSS 3 package? Also: has the community decided whether or not you can lift it without reinforced ties?

How much do the Foxes articulate vs the Bilsteins? I’m guessing they did a travel comparison.

Another YouTuber Sara n tuned several months back installed these on her 2 door with good results. I wish someone would give us some longer travel rear struts I mean if we can’t stretch out in the front let us at least do it in the rear some. The raptor bronco has some good droop in the rear.

Got a link to that video? I looked but couldn't find it.

Every website on these says 4 door only, ay reason why they wouldn’t be compatible with 2 doors?
