Sounds hypocritical to me coming from someone who criticizes those who are replacing parts without failing a "published test" and making changes from the way Ford engineers originally designed the vehicle..

Then you're not paying attention. All those things I said I like relate to KEEPING THE FACTORY SUSPENSION as-built; not modifying it. Check it out:



No lifts; no "levelling". All have essentially factory suspension. The black Bronco is modified, but only to keep it close to stock with all the extra weight it carries.

And I don't criticize - I advise & suggest. Nor do I discourage modifying a VEHICLE - I strongly advise against modifying a SYSTEM (like a suspension &/or steering system) without fully-understanding all its effects, but I'm all for transferring complete systems from newer wrecks onto older vehicles.
