i hope this helps you

i have OBX with stock suspension;

17“ KMC KM719 Canyon 17x8 +35
Falken Wildpeak AT3W

Honestly drives better than stock, plenty of room, doesn’t even come close to any rubbing issues even with huge load on suspension.

How do you like these wheels? Are they easy to clean?

Additionally, these are progressive springs which will make it difficult to really accurate in the computation.
Are they? I believe you, however, I suspect some of the aftermarket offerings will be linear instead of progressive. I guess we'll be depending on whatever the aftermarket offers for this platform.

In principle, I'm enthused about progressive because of a great experience I'm having with a Jeep, but trial-and-error is easier with the Jeep's solid axles than it will be with the Bronco's IFS.

I have a 4Dr 2.3L Non-SAS OBX that I’m looking to purchase some Sasquatch takeoffs or even non sas badlands bilsteins. What do I need to be looking for? Is there only certain ones that will work based on the spring part #s? Will the badlands non sas even be compatible? Thanks!

All this makes me think getting a Big Bend and putting BL sized tires was a good idea. Then I can just upgrade the shocks and be Badlands which is perfect.

Very smart! Fortunately, you can now download the stabilizer bar disconnect, front and rear lockers, and factory skid plates via OTA update. Congratulations!

i guess it’s a good thing I ordered rear lockers and can buy sway bar disconnects cheap and didn’t want the lower gearing and LT tires the BL and Sas comes with.

I had to get an OBD2 plug in for that as Ford didn’t offer them.

Just kidding! 😜 Obviously, you can make it look like a Badlands by just adding tires and upgraded shocks, but there are a few more components required to get equivalent functionality.

Well, they are wound like a progressive spring, so some of that is assumption, but they sure look progressive.

Wow, I downloaded the sway bar disconnect months ago at Harbor Freight... came with all the wrenches. I also downloaded the Torsen front differential from Amazon, but I have not enabled it yet. Rough Country let me download a front bash plate, but the other skid plates (except for the gas tank - which was factory installed) were missing.

LMFAO

A SAS with high package and 35" is a good choice. Putting 37"s is a great choice!!!!

If you go a 2 door then that's a completely another level...

Team 2 Door = Badass....😎

That would be good enough for me. I hope I don't have to download them from Amazon.
