Some info and photos from the spacer install, Sasquatch Wheels, and Ready Lift Crash Bars.
Goats lift was straight forward. Took me about 5 hours. Started on passenger side and thing that threw me off was the instructions saying to take off top strut nut cover. There is only one and it's on the driver side only. It protects from the bolt rubbing on the gas line. I was searching for a hot minute on the passenger side.
To press the top bolts out. I used a vice and a large socket over the pressed side. Worked great.
Used this spring compressor and it was awesome. Felt much safer than the cheap sketchy one I owned previously.

Bought some Bronco Sasquatch take offs. They are 315/70r17. Got the rings powder coated white.
With the spacer kit and ready lift crash bars i have no fitment issues. The crash bars were a PITA, I tried cutting the stock ones initially and ran through sawzall blades and didn't get far. I then unbolted the two body panels bolts by the rear crash bar and pulled it out. For front crash bar, I used a ratchet strap to pull the bumper away and was able to slide it out.

Getting the TPMS sensors put in tomorrow, per my Ford dealer. Late model 2025 sensors are different. Heres the model they said I have to use. Suggestion is call your dealers parts department and give them your Vin. They will let you know of you need the new version.
Lastly, the torque settings are high. I hit the high torque nuts with an impact wench went straight to alignment. Asked them to torgue the high torque bolts to spec and they did with no issue.
