A really good post. Actually it’s not, it’s a brilliant post. With modifications, one has to be very careful. There are many issues to consider. Usually the easy and quick fixes are not the best. Usually the gremlins that trip you up are the ones you never even considered. Thank you.
Hi Matt. GREAT video. Thank you. QUESTION - I already put a 1" Rough Country leveling kit on my non-sasquatch black diamond (before viewing your great video). I believe in your video you say that it's better to use spacers both front and back in non-sasquatch. Is that correct? Last question - After the 1" leveling kit, it sits about 1" higher in the front (with 3 spacers in the front). With that being said, I'd like to order another kit and throw 1 or 2 spacers in the back to level it out. Do you see any issue with that? If not, would you recommend 1 or 2 spacers? Thank you!!
that's a very informative video, I have a 23 wildtrak with Hoss suspension and I understand that perch Is my only option, is that right? and Where is your shop if I want you to do the work for me >
Great vid guys. What about the BroncBuster bushing? I'm adding 37s keeping the Bilsteins. I'm replacing the Upper Control Arm. Adding the BB components and Rear Track Bar, Spare Tire Reinforcement. Doing the Perch collar front, spacers in the rear. Sound good???
The tie rod is designed to be a weak point in the steering rack here. Seems more reasonable, to carry spare tire rods, boots and clamps. Which can all be had for less than 100.00. The bronc buster moves the stress to the steering rack, which would cause a much more expensive failure. As long as you familiarize yourself with tie rod replacement, should be good to go and limp home, at the bare minimum.
The collar lift doesn't give more maximum ground clearance (suspension at full droop). That stays the same as factory because the strut max length doesn't change and therefor the max CV shaft angle never changes.. What the collar lift does is increase the spring pressure so the resting height is higher. There will be more ground clearance with normal driving but the same at max suspension drop. I hope that is clear, it's kind of tricky to explain clearly. Another way to say it is the range of motion doesn't change, just the point in that range that the vehicle sits at under normal load.
@@4x4ranch Thank you for the explanation. It is still hard for me to wrap my head around. If you could draw it out on a white board and make a video on it I'm sure it would get a lot of views. Thanks again.
I'm ordering a new Bronco Black Diamond or Badlands with the Sasquatch package this coming August... What is the best lift to fit 37's and still function properly off-road ?????
@@pkrpro19 as of now, many people have broken Heim joint tie Rod ends due to their limited angle. No one has broken a factory tie Rod with these clamps on them. I’m not convinced the aftermarket tie Rod ends are stronger than oem with clamps.
I want some of what this guy is smoking. One northern winter and this setup is going to be a lamentable loss of time and money and needless aggravation.

I wanted to watch this.... I just can't with the cameraman breathing all up in the microphone!! 😂
So something like the icon spacer kit would be great since it's a combo of both?
Thanks a bunch! I have a Wildtrak and was thinking about a spacer in the back and a perch up front... You convinced me. 😊
This is a qualified video with great info.

I am having a hard time understanding the geometry. How does the collar lift give more ground clearance without changing the angle of the CV shaft?

Look into the Icon EXP line of shocks. great performance and can clear 37s. All the testing of those shocks was done with 37s.😎😎
Where are you located and do you install ?
We are located in Fargo, ND
Why not both?
Can I get the link for the tie rod clamps?
Added to video details
Fabtech has a complete tie rod kit with hiem ball joints for the same price but 4x stronger than the factory ones.

@@4x4ranch I’ve yet to see a Fabtech tie rod broken for the Bronco.
*WTF was the guy with no neck there for?* 🤦♂
No link ?
