Not sure what you need?
We started the suspension with a King OEM coilover to find they’d maxed the travel capability; we were pleased with their R&D. Our alterations to their coilover entailed:
We want it to perform well in the dirt but NOT at all costs; we’re not willing to suffer the on-road ride of heavy valving for big-hits – we’re after balance.
The same philosophy holds true out back – we custom valve the shocks for a balanced ride. Cruising our Bronco on Southern California Highways, the ride is supple yet extremely reactive – the Bronco handles like it’s on rails but there’s almost no harshness to the ride relative to the stock, spongy front, punchy rear. Even with the Sasquatch Bilsteins, we found the front to be soft and the rear to ramp up super quick – I’d even call it harsh. Much of our on-road tuning goal was to balance this ride – we wanted the front and rear to react the same to a given obstacle; we feel we’ve accomplished this.
Off-Road, we wanted the same balance – if the front bottoms, the rear should bottom with the same intensity and the chassis should remain controlled and level following the bottoming event. Crank the compression adjusters to up the capability even more but the same balance should exist.
In the dirt, the factory Sasquatch surprised us. Low Speed is comfortable, slow roll into the skinny pedal and things are controlled, big hits go to bottom but didn’t throw it out of control. Our spec Kings throw an exponent on this. Low speed begs for more speed, roll into the throttle and it just wants more speed – control is amplified and big hits are nothing. You’re not going to smash 3ft whoops but you’ll be shocked (see what we did there?) at the capability of your Bronco relative to stock suspension.
