Rear end gears options?

[Skeetlee]

Will or is anyone offering optional gearing for the new bronco? I have a badlands standard and once I put 35 or 37 on I might want to change the rear end gearing. Anyone have any info on this?

When you say standard do you mean MANUAL Trans or auto? If it’s a manual you already have 4.7 gear ratio witch should be plenty for those tires. If not you will have a 4.46 which is good too IMO. Hope this helps

You'll also have to change the front end gearing. It's way cheaper to order the correct gears when built than to do it later after purchasing.

It seems as though the manual BL is a tad over geared to start with. I'd put the tires on first and see how it feels.

4.7 is standard on manual BL.

4.7 “optional equipment “ that’s standard on Badlands builds.

….but the OP has a BL.

I would agree with this having a manual badlands on 33's. Obviously the Squatch comes with 35's and the same ring and pinion gearing. A 37 is the next taller tire I would have little doubts the 4.7 and manual would still be decent. Worst case it would probably make your rig with 37's and 4.7...feel more like 4.46 rigs.

No sir. Here is the gear ratio by model and transmission choice.

4.7 is standard on manual BL.

4.70 is standard on ALL Badlands (as they all come with the manual transmission standard). If you pay to get the optional non-sasquatch automatic transmission, it changes it to a 4.46 ratio. Semantics of course, but people should not forget Ford decided the BL should come from the factory with a manual transmission as the default configuration.

You’re....not wrong. So technically 4.46 is the optional gearing on BL.

It’s standard on a manual transmission Badlands. Option on an auto unless you get SAS then its standard.

If the gearing is your priority buy the model or features (Sasquatch,tire size) that suits your wants and or needs. Practically speaking, gear changes on a new vehicle aren't a wise way to spend your money.
