Add the Sasquatch package to a 2026 Bronco Badlands and you pay $4,350. Add it to a Big Bend and the real bill is $10,670. Same 35-inch tires, same lockers. The Ford Bronco Sasquatch package has no single price, and if you want one for the least money in 2026, the trim you start from matters more than the package itself.
Quick answer: The Ford Bronco Sasquatch package costs $4,350 on a 2026 Badlands with the automatic, $6,345 with the manual, and $6,175 on a Big Bend, which also requires the $4,495 Black Diamond Package. It adds 35-inch tires, a 4.7 axle ratio, front and rear locking differentials and high-clearance Bilstein suspension.
What does the Bronco Sasquatch package include?
Ford’s own description, in its From the Road article on the 2026 Bronco 60th Anniversary Package, is short: an Advanced 4×4 system, high-clearance suspension, a more aggressive final drive ratio, electronic-locking front and rear differentials and 35-inch Goodyear rugged-terrain tires. Ford Authority’s November 2025 breakdown of the Big Bend option sheet fills in the parts list:
- Advanced 4×4 with automatic on-demand engagement
- 35-inch LT315/70R17 rugged-terrain tires on 17-inch wheels (matte black alloys on Big Bend)
- 4.7 final drive ratio with electronic-locking front and rear axles
- High-clearance suspension and fender flares with position-sensitive Bilstein shocks
The tire is the headline, but the axle ratio is the part you’ll feel every day. A 4.7 ratio turns the engine more times per wheel revolution, which wins back the acceleration that heavier, taller 35-inch tires would otherwise cost. It also keeps crawling speeds slow and controllable in four-low. The trade is more engine speed on the highway.
One thing Sasquatch doesn’t change is towing. Beadle Ford’s May 2026 trim guide puts every non-Raptor 2026 Bronco at 3,500 pounds, with or without the package.
How much is the Sasquatch package on each 2026 Bronco trim?
Here’s where buyers get caught. The package price on the window sticker depends on what the trim already has, and on Big Bend you can’t order it alone. Prices below are before the $1,995 destination charge.
| Route to Sasquatch | Trim price | Package cost | Total before destination |
|---|---|---|---|
| Heritage Edition (Sasquatch standard) | $51,625 | Included | $51,625 |
| Big Bend + Black Diamond + Sasquatch | $40,995 | $4,495 + $6,175 | $51,665 |
| Badlands + Sasquatch (automatic) | $48,890 | $4,350 | $53,240 |
| Badlands + Sasquatch (manual) | $48,890 | $6,345 | $55,235 |
| Badlands 4-door + Wildtrak Package | $48,890 | $11,945 | $60,835 |
Sources: Big Bend price and package costs from Ford Authority (November 2025). Badlands, Heritage and Wildtrak prices from Beadle Ford’s 2026 trim guide (May 2026). Ford’s own configurator is the final word, and it changes during the model year.
Why the Badlands route costs less for the package
Badlands already comes with electronic-locking front and rear differentials, HOSS 2.0 suspension with Bilstein position-sensitive rear dampers and 33-inch tires, per Beadle Ford. So Sasquatch on a Badlands only has to add the bigger tires, the 4.70 axle and the high-clearance suspension. On a Big Bend, Ford makes you buy the Black Diamond Package first, which brings steel bumpers, bash plates, rock rails and a rear locker.
That makes the Heritage Edition the cheapest Sasquatch Bronco on this list, $40 under the Big Bend build and $1,615 under a Badlands automatic. For 2026 it also gets the 10-speed automatic with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost, according to Beadle Ford. What you give up is the Black Diamond armor.
Is the Ford Bronco Sasquatch package worth it?
If you’ll use the lockers, yes, and the Badlands is where it pays off most per dollar. If you mostly want the look, it’s harder to defend. Taller tires add rotating weight and wind noise, and four 35-inch replacements cost more than 32s or 33s when they wear out.
A detail many buyers miss: for 2026, Ford made the front stabilizer bar disconnect a standalone $1,305 option on the Badlands, per Beadle Ford. It used to come only inside Sasquatch. If articulation on rocks is what you want and you’re happy on 33s, that’s a cheaper way to get the piece that matters most for crawling.
The other trap is the manual. Beadle Ford lists Sasquatch at $6,345 with the seven-speed manual versus $4,350 with the automatic on a Badlands, so the stick costs you almost $2,000 more for the same hardware. Check that line on any build sheet before you commit.

Ford Bronco recall 2026: what to check on a Sasquatch build
Before you sign for any Bronco, run its VIN through NHTSA. Two 2026 campaigns matter to shoppers:
- Engine wiring harness (NHTSA 26V-468, Ford 26S55): 565,691 Broncos built September 23, 2020 to June 28, 2026. The harness can chafe and short, and Ford knew of 15 possible fires. Dealers add protective sheathing and abrasion tape for free, with owner letters from August 24, 2026, per TFLcar’s July 27, 2026 report.
- Side curtain air bag (Ford 26S64): 2,711 Broncos built June 27 to July 26, 2026. A burr on the right-side bracket can tear the air bag. Dealers add clearance for free, with letters from September 15, 2026, per Ford Authority.
A new Bronco still on a dealer lot from those build windows should have the fix done before delivery. Ask for the repair order. For Ford’s pickup campaigns, our Ford tailgate cable recall report lists the F-150 and Super Duty trucks involved.
What is the Bronco, and why does Sasquatch matter to it?
Ford introduced the Bronco on August 11, 1965 and, by its own account, coined the term “sport-utility” with it. The current Bronco is sold in six retail trims, and Sasquatch is the package that turns the softer ones into rock crawlers. It’s also a hard requirement for the 2026 60th Anniversary Package on the Outer Banks, a $4,995 add-on per Beadle Ford, so that collector build stacks both packages.

Ford Bronco Sasquatch package FAQ
How much is the Sasquatch package on a Bronco?
On a 2026 Bronco Badlands it’s $4,350 with the automatic and $6,345 with the manual, per Beadle Ford. On a Big Bend it’s $6,175, but it requires the $4,495 Black Diamond Package, so the real cost is $10,670, per Ford Authority. The Heritage Edition includes Sasquatch as standard at $51,625 before the $1,995 destination charge.
Is the Bronco Sasquatch package worth it?
It’s worth it if you’ll use front and rear lockers, 35-inch tires and the 4.7 axle on real trails, and it’s the best value on a Badlands at $4,350. It doesn’t raise the 3,500-pound towing limit. If you mainly want flex on rocks, the 2026 Badlands offers the front sway bar disconnect alone for $1,305.
What is the difference between Black Diamond and Sasquatch?
Black Diamond is a $4,495 Big Bend package with steel bumpers, bash plates, rock rails, 32-inch tires and a rear locker. Sasquatch adds 35-inch tires, a 4.7 axle, front and rear lockers and high-clearance Bilstein suspension. On a Big Bend you must buy Black Diamond before Ford will let you add Sasquatch.
The cheapest Sasquatch Bronco for 2026
Start from the Heritage Edition at $51,625 or a Badlands automatic at $53,240, and skip the Big Bend route unless you want the Black Diamond armor too. Priced trim by trim, the Ford Bronco Sasquatch package is cheapest where the trim already carries the lockers, and on a Badlands that’s $4,350 for 35-inch tires you’d otherwise pay a shop to fit.
