Does anyone make a lift kit specifically for the Badlands, or is it simply maxed out due to the CV angles on its axles?

I just talked to Rough Country about their kits, and they said that they are only specifically for the regular, non Badlands models only.

HRG Engineering (www.hrgengineering.com) makes a Badlands lift (1.25”), think Ford Ranger Lifts does too, also Bilstein Shocks has a shock replacement which includes a lift. There are some more but I don’t recall the company names.

I have the HRG 1.5 inch lift on my badlands. Installed by my Ford dealer so it doesn’t affect warranty. The tech said it was his first time doing a BS lift with the HRG kit and noted the quality over the Rough Country lift he usually does on BS.

Does this affect the handling? What was the total cost for the kit and installation?

I bought my '21 used, and the previous owner installed a 2" lift, at least he said it was 2" ;). It sits pretty high. I can tell when I park next to a non-Badlands model.

Hi everyone, I purchased the 1.3" RTR lift kit https://www.rtrvehicles.com/products/rtr-billet-lift-kit-bronco-sport-maverick
The build quality is definitely appreciated, but there's one problem: the front spacers (at least those) are only 1" thick. I'm attaching a measurement image. I didn't want a 2" lift because of the issues it could cause with the axle shafts, but only 1" seems like a small increase in ground clearance. It's not economical to import it to Argentina. I hope the manufacturer gives me an answer that doesn't involve additional costs. I'll keep you posted. Regards.

I received the response from the manufacturer almost immediately, it says the following:

Hey Eduardo,

Thanks for contacting us. We would be happy to help.

There is no error in the product sent to you.

The mentioned 1.3" is not indicative of the height of the spacer itself, but rather the observed and measured ride height change of the vehicle post-install.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to us here.


I wish I could believe what the manufacturer tells me, but I believe more in mathematics: 0+1"=1", not 1.3"
