Solution for Sag on 2023 Ford Bronco Heritage Limited Edition With Sasquatch Package
Question:
I have a 2023 Ford Bronco Heritage Limited Edition which has the Sasquatch package. When towing my motorcycle trailer I get a noticeable sag. The tongue weight is less than 300 pounds. While researching your site I noticed that the Sumo helper springs are not for use with the Sasquatch package. Is there any other product that will work well to prevent the sag?

I do have a solution, but none of the suspension enhancement options are compatible with the Sasquatch package on your 2023 Bronco. What you can use instead is a weight distribution system which is the best way to keep your vehicle level when towing. An aftermarket hitch like the # DT37GR is compatible with weight distribution. I'm assuming the factory hitch will also work but you should check your owner's manual to be sure.
You will need a system rated for the 300 lb tongue weight from your motorcycle trailer. The Fastway e2 # FA92-00-0450 is rated for tongue weights up to 450 lbs so that would be perfect for your setup. It also has 2 point sway control to help reduce side-to-side movement as well. It doesn't come with a hitch ball so you will need # 40038 for a 2" ball or # 63847 for a 2-5/16" ball along with # ALL643216 for installation.
