Bronco RAPTOR vs SASQUATCH Breakdown! 

1mm IS a lot because of how stress works on the tie-rods. The failures are buckling failures and buckling resistance, "strength" is proportional to the fourth power of radius/diameter. So 15mm vs 14mm is only 7% bigger, but it is 30% stronger for the applied load.

Absolutely love how you guy's stay neutral to brand loyalty and keep showing killer mods to any platforms you get your hands on! Can't wait to see this project with the new mods! Great job guy's!

My Wildtrak has HOSS 3.0. The same tie rods and steering rack as the Raptor.... Also, HOSS 3.0 includes FOX 2.5 internal bypass shocks.

Great Video! As others mentioned, the 2023 Bronco Wildtrack now gets the HOSS 3.0 standard, which includes "the Ford Performance Severe-Duty upgraded steering rack from the Bronco Raptor, upgraded inner and outer tie rods." HOSS 3.0 was an option on the 2022 Bronco Wildtrack and I don't think available on the Badlands, or other variants.

Innuendos? Double entenderás? You two are so much fun. Meanwhile, I wish I could afford a BRaptor. Yours Is of course going to be amazing, as we all expect it to be. StepChild will always be my favorite. Watching her grow along with y'all has been a blast to see! Missed you at Winter Jamboree but ran into Chris and Bec, who were full of smiles as usual. LIteBriteNationGoingVacation!

Thanks for all the information on the Bronco. Huge jeep guy here but honestly love the Offroad community. Keep it coming you guys

Keep up the fun contact!! Love you guys!! Can’t wait for the Portal axles!!!

I always enjoy your videos ...maybe because everything is so natural and Brittany always has this happy personality

Portals!? Yes, and reduction. You guys and gals rock!

I think I may have mentioned portals a couple videos ago. 😊 can’t wait to see it!!

Can't wait to see the build. Hope you enjoyed your trip. God bless take care.

Just got my Braptor today! I cant be more excited

Freaking love that Raptor Bronco !!

Love the video and the innuendos. Your Bronco rocks. Love you guys ❤😊

the Wildtrak now has the HOSS 3.0 that has the Raptor rack and Tie rods stock

You guys crack me up. That things going to be insane. Look forward to it!!

Hey kids..., no surprises here! Just good old show & tell. Show what ya have & tell what you do w/ it... . Fun stuff! You kids rock...!

Great video guys! You guys should also measure the top of Kevin’s head with his new hairdo …. I love it kev.

I love the size of the rack,

Thanks for making this video guys. I'm trying to get a 23 but even if banks open for ordering it will probably get pushed to 2024 build year..

I love the way Brittany speaks. If I wasn't watching the video, I would be thinking something totally different like we all did. Kevan high five👍

Thanks for the tires and wheels tip ...I didn't know that

Would portal axles fix the deficiencies on a Badlands? Not all but some? Would be interesting to know for folks considering that route. Awesome videos, been watching some older ones, you guys deserve every bit of success you’ve earned. Keep at it.

I love you guys 😂 you always make my day better!!! My face hurts from laughing so much!!! ❤❤💯🤙

So other then small upgrades. Mainly keeping everything stock. Which is best as stock? Bronco raptor Bronco badlands sasquatch Wrangler rubicon recon 392 Power wagon Zr2 Trx Raptor Baja Or other? Toyota, ect, other? Thanks Then best after completely upgraded everything too. Thanks

It’s going be an awesome build❤😊

We just bought a new 2022 gladiator and was interested in your thoughts about what we should do first? We have the bumpers and winch and it’s a rubicon lol. We are fairly new to the overlanding/off roading world. We have done some wheeling in my Sahara and my wife’s Rubicon at SMORR and in Arkansas. We love the channel guys and everything you’re doing. Keep it up and say hey to Chris and Bec for us

2023 Wildtrak has a little bit different suspension (HOSS 3.0 FOX) than the previous Wildtrak (HOSS 2.0 BILSTEIN)

Can't wait for the specials 😍

About the only major part of the Bronco that wasn't changed for the Raptor was the body shell.

I would be soooo happy with one of those

I wonder how long it will take before a yellow roped banana has to pull you out of the trails. That's an episode I'm looking forward to.Thank you for your time.

I feel like you're still trying to sell us on the Braptor over Jeeps, but the only thing I'm impressed with is the innuendo's in this video, and gown great that shirt looks on Brittany!

Can’t wait to see it on portal’s ❤❤🎉🎉 you guys are awesome together 😂😂❤❤❤

@4:49 Kevin is the goat 🤣🤣🤣

Anybody that thought or was arguing that the bronco Raptor suspension, etc., components were the same as base or sasquatch broncos just didn't bother to know the difference. It is not like Ford, kept it a secret. They released lots of diagrams specifically calling out what was changed. For me they share the same body carriage, but beyond that there are so many differences that it is really like a different vehicle. Throw the HOSS3.0 package in with some 22.5 Wildtraks and the MY23, and you have people really confused. If I had a raptor, I would still go ahead and get rid of the light duty skid plates and replace with aluminum ones. If I was setting the raptor up as a more dedicated crawler, and if I could get rid of the sway bar disconnect without all sorts of computer issues, then that would be an potential option. The system is good for parlor tricks, but a manual release or no sway bar is better in that situation. I would probably keep the rear bumper until I trashed it, then replace it. Portals, sounds fun, expensive, but probably too much for my uses.

If you got the modular steel bumper you would get the bash plates those would cover most things

Man I can’t wait to get a VIN and build date for my BRaptor

Great video! but... you forgot to mention ride comfort.The additional girth of the control arms will make for a much smoother ride (which ladies appreciate). With solid axles you have the 2 brake pistons slamming home at the same time on both ends of the axle which makes for an up and down jarring ride. Whereas for the IFS in general you have the pistons sliding in on opposire ends at different times which most riders find very enjoyable. Now in the raptor version, you have larger pistons but the additional girth of the suspension helps smooth the ride which is a much improved "motion of the ocean" experience.

Do this on a 23 Wildtrak Hoss 3.0 plus extras

I purchased a Raptor for about the same price as yours and am trying to get insurance. I have not been able to find anyone that will insure it for more than MSRP which is quite a bit less than I paid. Can you recommend some insurance companies that will insure a vehicle for what it actually would cost to replace it?

I've heard all of the 2-door Broncos have fuel tank skid plating regardless of trim level. My '22 non-Sas Outer Banks has it. 🙂

Good morning guys, I've said it before say it again the Raptor is what customers should have got !!!

How do I stop this channel from suggesting videos in my feed?

74 weld. Right choice!

Can’t wait to see it!🤙🏽🤙🏽

Okay guys! If we're comparing racks...Britt wins hands down! 👍

Love the channel, hate Fords. So got my like and a quick view, and a comment. Best I can do for you today.

Funny a$$ video...Great how you mix it up and make the content more fun. Admit I'm more of a truck guy, but drive the wife's wrangler 4xe (tuscadaro) often.

Love ❤️ you guys

The threaded part on the tie rod looks thicker on the Raptor. The part you guys didn't measure. The threads not as deep, the body not as skinny,. At least by eyecrometer. Remember that it is the bottom of the thread groove that is the real body thickness of a shaft. Oh, god, now you guys have me talking like that. Just forget it.

There’s a particular bronco running koh with weld 74 portals!

Love the content!

Thanks that is awesome

I looked at a Sasquatch at the ford dealer the other day, sticker was $78000, $8k was just for the 'offroad package'. These prices are ludicrous. For reference, I paid $63k out the door for my 2017 F350 6.7L diesel Lariat brand new.

Not surprised by the portals and 40s etc etc. It’s LiteBrite, why wouldn’t you do that?

Behemoth, monster, girth, We know. Then there was the "RACK". Hard to concentrate on the what ever the video was about. I think it was about FORDS. Again, always a fun videos. Thanks.

Confirmed Brits a size queen she wants the biggest thickest off roaders

I wonder if they use plastic gas tanks because hitting a rock with the tank and no skid plate could cause sparks. Sparks and gas be no bueno.

Just got my Bronco Raptor after have a lifted JL since 18’. I am finding zero winch options. I really want to keep the stock bumper and not have a huge winch sticking off the front. Something hidden. Any ideas?

You guys are great

Well can’t get either one right now so who cares. At this rate I’ll have my Cybertruck before the Bronco. Nice vid as usual though!

Our Bronco finally went into production and it looks like I will need to do quite a few upgrades

I always really enjoy your videos!!! Fun to watch and very informative. Now that you show the difference between the vehicles I guess it helps to justify the price difference? Both vehicles are still pretty pricey for what your are getting I think? To much engineering and plastic I think? It would be a great fun driver but hard to spend that kind of money for a weekend car? Not sure what the MPG is but if I’m driving that kind of car I’m not thinking of that! Ha ha.

Doesn’t the current 2023 Wildtrak have the same steering rack and tie rods as the Bronco Raptor?

How hard/expensive is it to beef up the tie rods on a Badlands/Wildtrack?

So hope you get portals!!!

Soooo, do u guys like it any more or any less, now that you’ve been using it for a few months now???

Luv u 2. You guys are the best.

That was the best video ever😂😂😂

O.K., I've gotta pull out the Engineer card here so please don't hate. I like the bronco and appreciate what Ford is trying to do, but as a Jeeper what I question about their design is the simple fact that if you look at strength and stress test numbers steering and axle manufacturers utilize when designing tie rods and axle shafts for our jeeps, why wouldn't the ford Engineers have similar design specs meaning 1.5 to 1.75 inch sizing for those rods and whatever the axle shaft converts too like the Advantek M210 axle.?? Although many of those won't ever leave the Malls or soccer fields (like many jeeps too), with that package being so aggressive it seems like a no brainer.

The 6x135 bolt pattern of the Bronco Raptor is the same as the F150/F150 Raptor.

god i would love portals in my JL, im curious to see portals on your bronco

It’s not so much re-engineering the Bronco suspension, rather they used the f150 raptor suspension in the braptor.

Please have a fuckin good time on your trip!

With 3.5" of extra width, I'm curious about the extra leverage and weight of the portal. I'm excited to see if you'll need more valving or more spring rate.

Great video thank you!

Peanut loves the Braptor but the changes will piss-off Jelly Belly!

You two are great. The innuendos about racks, girth, length, etc were spot on. Waiting for your next video. Dan, from Alberta, Canada. 🇨🇦😅

Damn the first line was Harsh 😂😂

We traded our Wrangler JL on a Bronco Raptor (Code Orange) and love your Braptor content - keep it coming

So wich ones better the sasquatch or the raptor

What I don't understand is, if you were planing on doing all these upgrades (and more probably), why didn't you just do them on the other Bronco?

Wonder how my wildtrak HOSS3.0 compares to the HOSS4.0

Please bring back the 80 series!

Great video y’all as usual thanks

get chris in shop to fab some brace for the skid plate for t case great job

Brittany's rack is hands down the best rack !!!! lol

Ooh. Portals. Fun.

Is the Sasquatch white and raptor black by any chance

That's what she said🤣

experience is a ton of not breaking the front end. So many people bind the front up and boom.

Love you guys. Take s moment to breath it all in. Safe times have a blast. Leave the SNAKE at BAE.

I love you guys 😂

Fkn hilarious vid 🤣 Hey you think it be possible to compare specs with jeep and a ranger? New ranger?

All Wildtraks come stand with the Sasquatch package

The HOSS 3.0 WT and the BRaptor steering racks are the same, are they not? If it's a HOSS 2.0 WildTrak, that is a different story. Oh, so they did it right the second time... I see! I have the BRaptor/HOSS 3.0 WT steering rack on my Hardcore OBX... (LOL - Hardcore and OBX shouldn't be in the same sentence).

Brittany, you are why crop tops were invented! Rrrrrr.

Hahahahaaaa hahahahaaaa 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 Fkn Great Rack too.. Love from The Land Down Under 😘 😘 😘

Bigger is better! 😆 🤣 😂 Happy Trails to both of you!
