Warranty denial- HEADS UP

[Cysquatch]

What is the obsession with 37s on a Bronco? We know what's defective on the Bronco so don't be shocked when warranty denies parts that we already know suck. Just replace with upgraded aftermarket parts or go back to stock.

because a lifted Bronco on 35's looks like it skipped leg day?

You have a build that can talk 37s, that's a different story than throwing 37s with zero upgrades to handle the 37s.

True but there’s still the CV issues that need to be addressed with lifts 2” or above. The droop is putting the CVs at risk. Limit strap? Diff drop? And I won’t go Spicer or RCV until they explicitly say they can handle the CV angles that a king coil-over (lowest setting) and 37s present. (They won’t)

A Bronco CV axle is way easier to replace than the CV boot (if you can find boots).

Easier, but probably not cheaper

I think a set of cv boots run about $160 and a 3 hour job. CV axles runs $468 for two and it’s about an hour job.

I didn't go to Lebron James' school, but I do believe $468 > $160.

Your math may very

A single axle can be had for around $250. I got a set of two. So $250, although more expensive than the boots, is more than worth it. Less work and easily available. You’ll have better luck finding a unicorn than CV boots and if you do, enjoy the nightmare of rebuilding the CV to save $80.

Moral of the story, have a friend swap his 35s on your rig before taking it in.
