@Nick246 was the adjustable sway links necessary for the lift in combination with the larger tires? I'm leaning towards the same leveling lift kit that you have, due to the fact that it appears to have better quality manufacturing than others. I was not planning to go with tires not bigger than 245/65/17

Adjustable sway links are not necessary. I just thought it made sense after I installed the lift. The stock sway links added quite a bit of downward pressure on the sway bar.

They rubbed on the felt liner but missed the pinch weld by a quarter inch. I took some pictures.

I trimmed the felt a little (about a 6-8inch oval. Then I thermoformed some Kydex sheets to the fender well behind the felt. I used a heat gun to soften the Kydex.

Unbelievable that Ford puts in the Badlands, which is theoretically made for Off Road, the felt liner on the fenders. If you take a lot of mud paths and wash the felt liner they quickly degrade. Even more unbelievable is that on the underside of the car there is a large felt liner protection. . . I already had to change mine because when I went to clean the clay the staples came loose opening a hole in the felt liner. The interior of the car on the floor has a lot of poorly done felt liner finishes. . . I hope that Ford fixes these problems mainly in Badlands which theoretically is Off Road thoroughbred.

Nick246, your Bronco looks awesome. Question, where did you get your finder flares and are they clip on of double sided tape and 3M glue? If you don't mind could you give me the website and part number? Thank you Sir.

They are air design fender flares. Yes they Clio on and have double sides tape as well as some adhesive.

Nick246 Did you remove the stock plastic finder strips first or mount the new flares over the top of them?

Another question, with the increased height are you able to use the stock scissor jack? I've read were people are buying a high lift jack but from what I remember as a kid those had to be placed under the front or rear bumper. Using it on the side would scratch the paint.

Good question. I haven't used the scissor jack yet. I'll take a look when I get a chance and let you know.
