Ford Bronco ORV Package Adds Fox Suspension for $18,995
Ford has introduced a factory-backed shortcut for owners who want a more trail-focused four-door Bronco without assembling suspension, protection, lighting and appearance parts one at a time. The new Bronco ORV Package carries an MSRP of $18,995 and is offered for selected 2025 and 2026 Bronco Base, Big Bend and Outer Banks models.
The important fine print is that ORV is an accessory package, not a new trim level. Buyers still need an eligible Bronco, dealer or qualified installation, and tires. Ford says dealer pricing and installation charges can vary, so $18,995 is not the complete installed cost.
What the ORV package includes
Ford’s official Bronco ORV specifications group functional and cosmetic upgrades under a single Ford Custom Garage part number. The major trail hardware includes:
- Fox off-road suspension intended to add ground clearance, damping control and articulation.
- Bronco Raptor skid plate and fuel-tank protection.
- A modular front bumper with parking-aid compatibility.
- Rocker-panel trail armor and Havoc fender flares.
- Four-inch Rigid auxiliary LED lights and an auxiliary switch kit.
- Seventeen-inch black Weld wheels and black lug nuts.
- A Ford Performance ProCal tool for correcting speedometer and vehicle calculations after approved tire-size changes.
The visual changes include red tow hooks and grille lettering, a matte-black hood graphic, a smoked rear Ford oval, a black Bronco tailgate badge and unique ORV fender badges. Ford also lists a number of extra-cost options, including a Borla high-clearance exhaust, a heavy-duty rear differential cover and an ARB under-hood air compressor.
Eligible Broncos—and the exclusions
The package is designed for selected 2025–2026 four-door Bronco Base, Big Bend and Outer Banks models. Ford says exact fitment depends on the Bronco’s trim, camera and Lux-package configuration, as well as whether it already has the Sasquatch Package. Bronco Raptor and Badlands models are excluded.
That limited fitment matters because some ORV components interact with factory cameras, parking sensors, suspension geometry and existing option packages. Buyers should have a dealer confirm the vehicle identification number and configuration before ordering rather than assume every four-door Base, Big Bend or Outer Banks is compatible.
The $18,995 price is only the starting point
Ford lists the package at $18,995, but explicitly says dealer pricing and installation charges may vary. Tires are required and sold separately; Ford recommends a 315/70R17 size. That means the final bill will depend on labor rates, tire choice and any optional hardware added during installation.
The package’s appeal is therefore convenience and integration rather than an automatic bargain. Owners could shop for individual aftermarket parts, but the ORV bundle puts compatible Ford Accessories and Ford Racing Parts into one dealer-orderable package. It also avoids the work of independently coordinating wheels, suspension, lighting, underbody protection and recalibration.
Warranty coverage is a key selling point
Ford says the ORV Package includes a supplemental three-year/36,000-mile Ford Racing Parts warranty that begins on the vehicle’s original in-service date. Installation by a Ford dealer or an ASE-certified technician does not void the Bronco’s standard new-vehicle warranty.
That is not the same as saying every future repair will automatically be covered. As with any accessory installation, owners should retain the invoice, confirm that the package is properly registered, and understand which components are covered by the supplemental warranty versus the vehicle’s original warranty.
How it differs from a factory trim
A Bronco fitted with the ORV Package does not become a separate model in Ford’s lineup. The underlying engine, transmission and trim-level equipment remain those of the donor vehicle. Ford also does not claim a specific horsepower increase as part of the standard package; the included ProCal device is described as a calibration tool for accurate vehicle readouts after modifications.
That distinction prevents the package from being confused with the Bronco Raptor or Badlands, which incorporate their off-road specifications at the factory. ORV instead targets owners of less specialized trims who want a coordinated, warranty-backed upgrade path.
Where it fits in the current SUV market
Automakers are increasingly using special editions and accessory bundles to give mainstream SUVs more distinct identities. Nissan took a factory-edition approach with its 2027 Pathfinder Special Edition, while Ford’s Custom Garage strategy lets an owner start with an existing Bronco and add a dealer-installed package.
The ORV bundle also reflects the strong customization culture around modern off-road SUVs. Our report on MINI’s Countryman Untamed at the Rebelle Rally covers a different kind of off-road positioning, but both programs show how brands are selling lifestyle and personalization alongside basic transportation.
For Bronco shoppers, the practical decision is straightforward: compare the installed ORV price with the cost of moving up to a more capable factory trim or building an equivalent aftermarket package. The answer will depend on the starting Bronco, local labor rates, tire choice and how much the Ford-backed integration matters to the owner.
