That is messed up... The 2dr option doesn't care what engine you have, but as soon as you go 4dr with the 2.7l it makes you remove the rails and the hard top...? WTH?
I compared the difference in selecting the 4cyl and the manual and the V-6 and the auto and it's just the $$ of the V-6 ($1895) Nice surprise for sure since I was worried it was going to be a dual hit for the 10spd too...!
I'm pretty happy with the end result, based on all the pricing guesstimates we had it is pretty spot on for me... (Even threw in a couple of accessories)The color is supposed to be CG (Some of the site seems a little wonky) Still going to play with some of the options just for fun...
I had a 92' "Nite" version with the 351W... It actually did well off road, but a little under powered. I did full exhaust and some other small mods, including rebuilding the engine and transmission. Re geared the rear end and swapped out to manual hubs. Gave it a small lift and 33's and enjoyed...
Great writeup! I have a 2016 F-150 with the 2.7l (6speed trans) and on the note about the trans holding the gear... There's a lot of other answers here, so I'll just give my .02. I rarely put it in Sport mode except if I am on city streets and need to get over two lanes from a stop light or just...
Checked to be sure, but yes the T/B is electronically controlled. BBK sells an aftermarket 65mm one for around $500... (F-150) https://www.americantrucks.com/bbk-65mm-throttle-body-27l-1517eco.html
The current Ranger 2.3l eco is behind the wheel well on the drivers side, have no idea if the Bronco will be in the same place..? The 2.7l Eco is on the top of the engine... Looks like you'll have to remove the skid plate to drain the oil for both tho...
Here's a good overview of the 2.7L Eco... It mentions as well that there is engine management that controls the power output based on the octane rating, however it specifically mentions the 3.5l in this case... So you could assume the same is true for any of the Eco's, but that may or not be the...
I have a 2016 F-150 with the 2.7l and the oil change is super easy... There is an undercover beneath the engine you remove (4 bolts) then the oil pan drain plug turns 1/4 turn to drain the oil... The oil filter is on the top of the engine and just unscrews and drains into the pan... Probably one...
Nooo! Don't even say that! Totally disappointed it got canceled this year (Not surprised) but I'm going next year and was thinking how epic it will be with the Bronco already running around for months, there should be some seriously cool stuff to look forward to! (Hope you're wrong!) :cool:
It's funny you mention that.. Lived in AZ since the 80's and can remember years ago I had a 2000 Lightning with pretty dark tint... I was in a freeway on-ramp transition during rush hour, so going like 15mph, and got lit up...?? I pull over and figured immediately it was the tint...! So I rolled...
Was thinking the same thing... As soon as it gets around the flares come off in two minutes, they will be disappearing left and right! Definitely need a retention system...
Yeah, pretty sure I remember wheeling in Moab.... It doesn't matter where you are from... If you don't have mudflaps or fender flares, you will get pulled and a ticket....
Yeah, agreed! It looks like they moved it for this platform too... On the F-150 it's on the Driver's side still kinda low... Hopefully don't have to look into replacing one during ownership...?
