What we learned today about 37s on a Sasquatch

If you guys think that badlands looks the same as this sasquatch with 35's Id get my eyes checked.

 

[Evanks]

I was there today and asked if it was Sasquatched. It was.

You are wrong sasquatch fenders no lift.

What are you basing that on? FORD Says it has it. In their video. 1:10 mark in video:

So it was a badlands with the same Bilsteins as any Sasquatch or it didn’t have the Bilsteins. We have been told the Badlands without Sasquatch has the exact same “lift” because it has the exact same suspension. The only difference is a 10mm bumpstop on the Sasquatch that limits uptravel.

I am thinking that concept is fully loaded Lux, winch, rack, tent, all the stuff in the back ... it’s weighed down.

It needs a two inch lift to get the articulation back.

So you really think an ARB fridge and a tent and a Winch weigh more than say 4 passengers? Give me a break aint no way the thing is going to squat that low with 4 people in it.

You ever hang a winch off the front of a vehicle?

Uh yes they weight 75lbs Go stand on the front of your vehicle 200lbs doesnt even make it sit down 2in

You have done it? Just curious?
When I have done it, I had to change springs in the front. What was your experience?

 

[Evanks]

An 8000lb winch didnt even make my old samurai squat that much.

 

[Evanks]

I've put winches on Samurai's Jk's willys' jeeps and cj5's never has the suspension dropped even half an inch.

All I can tell you is the suspension difference between badlands and Sasquatch badlands at most is half an inch, and Ford said there isn’t any difference. Just the tire height.

That is for Badlands only. Non-Squatch base or BD or OB are about an inch lower.

Ahem. I think you mean, BADMANSQUATCH. It has a better ring to it

Well then the sasquatch has the softest suspension and lowest cargo weight of any vehicle ive been around. Minivans could haul more if at most 400lbs makes the suspension drop 2in

Front and rear steel bumpers with a RTT is gonna add about 300 lbs. Add to that a couple people and gear...
