Sasquatch package + Lift: What is the recommendation to add 37's?

[Salicrupa]

My apologies if this has been covered before. I did a search of this topic and, while I did get some basic questions answered from other threads, I have not seen a solid answer for what are people doing to effectively lift their Sasquatch equipped rigs to add 37's?

Unlike some of the other threads I have read, I do go out and off-road on easy and moderate trails. While I obviously don't want to break the bank, I want to do what is right for the rig. I am familiar with Jeep's and how to plan lifts on solid axles but I am not familiar with IFS or what other Bronco owners are experiencing out there. I am seeking advice on what kits to look at.

Your advise is very much appreciated.

There is absolutely no reason 35s won’t handle easy to mild trails. You paid extra for the suspension. Use it until it doesn’t meet your requirements.

That's already happened once. I got high centered a few times on a trail in Johnson Valley

It all depends on how much off-roading you plan on doing and if you are wanting 37's for looks or increased functionality. If zero to very mild off-roading, then maybe a 1" or 2" spacer lift and upper control arm. If you are planning on doing more than just running down some dirt roads then you are better of going with new coil overs, uca's and possibly a rear track bar and rear trailing arms.

Yes, I do go off roading quite a bit. I have a few "Badges of Honor" trails very close to me. I want to do coilovers. I just want to know how to make a decision on the right kit.

What you really need for 37s is an upgraded steering rack and/or tie rods.

We must different opinions of mild trails than if you’re getting high centered with 35s. I’ve done what I’d consider to be mild trails (fins and things in Moab for example) with a Tacoma on 32s without getting hung up.

Well, I did. I went up Mottino Wash and had to be winched off one rock garden and lifted off another one so we could add rocks under the tires.

I am worried about the tie rods too. Who sells a good Tie Rod upgrade?

We chose the Fox stuff for our First Edition along with some VR Forged Wheels and 37's. Can't wait to get going with the installs.

There are several already on the market already, Fox, 4WP, Dirt Logic (what I run) and some others. Pricing is usually a good indicator of quality and the current coil overs on the market range from $3k to $6k for all 4 corners.

What you really need for 37s is an upgraded steering rack and/or tie rods.

And until those are available, considering ordering a spare tie-rod or 2 to keep with your recovery gear (waiting on mine to be delivered).

Just go mine a couple days ago. My gameplan is:
1. Install the 3" Zone adventure series lift (spacers) when they finally arrive
2. Upgrade to the RTR Fox suspension kit within a year or so.

Plan is to upgrade either to K02s or KM3s (37x12.5). Have run both on my 4Runner and will need to decide if I want ATs vs. MTs.

I’m not saying you didn’t. What I was getting at is it’s probably not a moderate trail if you did get high centered. Not familiar with the trail so I gave it a google.
