2021 BRONCO BADLANDS SASQUATCH BUILD
Our 2021 Bronco Badlands Sasquatch project truck seemed to be a pretty capable rig right off the lot, but we wanted to put that to the test and see what we could improve. A new Old Man Emu lift, 37" tires, Fuel Rebel wheels, heavy-duty Warn bumper, 10,000lb. Warn winch, and a host of Rigid lights alongside numerous other accessories helped unlock a whole new level of off-road capability for our Badlands Bronco. Check out the entire build below!
SUSPENSION, WHEELS & TIRES
Underneath our new Bronco we fitted an Old Man Emu Suspension Kit (Medium Load) to provide an extra 1" of lift (2" of lift on non-Sasquatch) and paired it with a set of LT37x12.50R17 BFGoodrich KO2 A/T Tires wrapped around 17x9" Fuel Rebel D679 Matte Black Wheels. This not only gives the truck a menacing and rugged stance, but it also provides a nice bump in off-road capability to get our Bronco through some more advanced and technical trails.
BUMPER, WINCH & LIGHTING
The next order of business was the addition of body armor and lighting for our build. We picked up a heavy-duty Warn Elite Front Bumper, dropped in a Warn VR EVO 10-S 10,000lb Winch with Synthetic Cable and finished off the front end with a set of RIGID 360-Series SAE LED Fog Lights (Yellow/White). Moving up to the A-pillars we added a pair of Grimm Offroad A-Pillar Light Brackets which provided an excellent platform to mount a set of RIGID 360-Series 6" Amber Backlit Spot Beam LED Lights.
SOFT TOP, TUBE DOORS & MORE
Two highlights of the Bronco's design are it's removable top and doors which open up some new possibilities for mods. We swapped out the factory soft top with a Bestop Trektop (Black Twill) for an aggressive slant-back look and then added a Ford Performance Complete 4-Door Tube Door Kit to capitalize on the open air experience while still maintaining some safety for the folks in the cab. To top things off we grabbed a FactionFab Black Stubby Antenna and mounted a one-of-a-kind, prototype, spare tire carrier from Grimm Offroad to support the giant 37" spare.
