Welcome to Bronco Nation! WOW - that's a beautiful horsey!! No expert here, but suspension mods are a DEEP & WIDE topic. Suggest thinking alot 'bout exactly what you'd like, and finding a local Bronco shop with tons 'o experience. Just know that changing suspension components has follow-on effects that really needs a complete understanding both front & rear.

Our approach with WildTrak has been to limit suspention changes to only heavier springs to mitigate significant protection & bumper/winch weight adds, until we're ready to completely change out suspension components.

Cheers

Well I know I'd like a bit of rock crawling and some speed at times if needed ..I've tried researching and watching videos and so far I like APGs mid travel suspension and it brings the front tires out a bit and they say you can get spacers for the rear to bring out the back tires as well

If you're looking for a Baja-style suspension, check out Vasher's Long Travel Bolt On Kit. You can start with the minimum to get the travel and stance you're looking for, then add items like bump stops and limit straps as needed. I was with him at a local offroad park and one of the builds he did, a two-door Badlands, came by. The travel this kit has is crazy! The two-door looked great with it, too.
