Only downside I see there with the sas for daily use is breaking and evasive ability. Sounds bad. Buuuuuuuuut I mean come on. Anybody lookin for 35’s already knew that.
If you’re driving and you lock your breaks, get hit etc, anything over 110lbs runs the risk of breaking the rack according to the ford legal team. 450 static means it can support about two adults in a roof top tent that is up mounted up top and parked in your campsite.
For the 3.5, hold onto it for a couple years. We don’t know when the raptor variant is coming out but there are suspicions floating around about them having the 3.5. At that point there will be motor mounts etc from the factory you could probably piece together through ford and also a tune...
If f150s can be any indication, they offer multiple options for diff ratios and open/lockers. I don’t know if that’s been mentioned yet. If so mybad for the redundancy
When I had planned out my 302 I was lookin for 62cc chambers with the slightly thicker h gaskets and a boost cam hoping I could get to about 8.5:1 while having monster heads on it. The 174 with the smaller pulley shoulda kept it around 6-8lbs. (I was only looking for a fun 500). That’s what led...
A few years back I was looking into building a a 174 boosted small block 302. Longevity and reliability were paramount in the build. This led me to ignition control (not needed in the bronco as much as a sbf) and water meth injection to kee temps down and octane high.
I was wondering what...

I am Incredibly proud of every single person offering encouraging and thoughtful words. I feel humbled just reading this thread. Thank you ?.
I am not in this mans position, however I am entering real adulthood looking to learn how to do better for myself and my future family. I want...
I’ll throw my hat in the no BLIS please ring. I definitely don’t want my seat to rumble either like others do. Peripheral pulse lights at night can be distracting.
B&P can’t come soon enough. I want the base mt with lockers and front axle and the 2 inch lift. That might price out to more than squatch. Who knows.
I do know, as bad as I want the manual, since ford already expresses a low level of confidence in the trans, I’m thinkin maybe I should avoid it...
Gen y. Tacoma stick. Wrangler stick. Bmw stick. Infiniti stick. Altima stick. Learned to drive on a 71 vw ghia stick. Maverick to be stick soon, :-(
little bit about myself: adhd and automatics hate each other.
There was talk about airbags being integrated into the rolls bars. This is honestly one of my biggest draws to the new bronco. I guess what I’m saying is this. With all these articles and hype surrounding bronco vs jeep, how are these airbags not a bigger factor? Do jeeps already have this? I...
With all of the restrictions as far as what packages go with what and the uncertainty of how much it will cost, as well as ford saying the manual is not a strong trans, I was just thinking maybe I could find something simpler, arguably tougher and probably cheaper to insure. Whether it’s the...
So. Easily removed body panels in under an hour. I’ve wondered about this and the general thought was maybe it’s possible, but this says under an hour. Real excited
To be honest I didn’t think there would be this much enthusiasm for it. Now there’s a bunch of threads so that’s pretty awesome.
my favorite part is the 14 Karens haha
