Side-by-Side photos of 33's vs 35's tires on 2021 Bronco (with pro camera)

Care to show where u got this information on 4.7 gears standard on BL? All I see is 4.46 on the non SquachBL.

When you use the build and price and get the 2.7L with automatic it defaults to 4.46 but you can choose the 4.7 gearing without any pricing difference.

I'll take the 35s, please.

Aren't they all HOSS? Just that Squatch has position sensitive.

Yes. All broncos have HOSS.

I was all in on believing the 10mm lift and wondering the what the actual difference in the parts was.


Then this came out.

So either @broncosor can't measure, these are still Frankenstein Broncos, or the 10mm lift difference isn't true. So who do we believe?

Or 10mm is the difference in a perfect environment but after you factor in driving them around (in Baja mode) and weight differences and settling, etc... that centimeter starts to disappear

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

On the Jeep side of things, they look to achieve standard heights, but they actually swap springs out depending on how the vehicle was spec’d... so a 4-door with a hard top will have stiffer springs than one that comes with a soft top... if Ford did something like that I can absolute imagine a situation in which published specs put the squatch 10mm higher, but in the real world, and with potentially some Franken Broncos thrown in, the differences could get muddled.

In any event, I’m not going to die on any hill for Ford... just repeating what they’ve said officially.

NO NO NO your not gonna get a 4.7 gear that way. I actually have a BL A10 ordered non sas you cant code it.

Hey, neither of those look like a Squatch or 35" tires. Anyone else confused here besides me?

You're not alone. I can't tell the difference either.

Yes it does come with disconnect. This chart just shows the gearing ratios.

The BL comes with the STABILIZER BAR disconnect, but that chart is referring to a front AXLE disconnect. Not sure exactly what that means, but it is only on the models without the front locker. I wonder if it is referring to the part time 4WD system?

Turns out in that first pic, they are 33", but the drive was in a Race Red Wildtrak with pics a few pages in that are definitely Squatched 35" tires.

All the talk on here recently about 37s now has me brainwashed to upgrade when my 35s wear out... That's also when I'll look to upgrade my suspension and add a lift..... ?.......... Think I gots me an idear and a plan now! Hot damn!

Yes.

Part time selectable 4wd has a “front axle disconnect” for when you’re in 2H

The optional Automatic 4 wheel drive (4A) transfer case does not because of how it’s designed (clutch pack).

all these crazy threads discussing over and over 5/8" difference

 

[jswan]

Those flares look ridiculous and silly at that angle.

It's a pretty bad photo.
Front wheels are oval due to perspective.

Like several folks have indicated 10mm is less than 0.5 inch difference. Given dynamics of ground variations, payload, and another onsite factors, its hard to visualize or properly measure that small difference.

So the build and price has yet another defect...I'm shocked. In any event I ordered the non-sas badlands with the 4.46 gearing. I'll take the better highway gas mileage of the 4.46.

Great catch. Never heard it called front axle disconnect. Must be for the models without advanced 4WD, unless they go with Sasquatch
