I just installed a Raptor grille on my black diamond today. Very simple and bolted right up. I assume everything else would also work the same way. Going to get the Raptor front fenders too

Hello everyone:

So I love the Bronco Raptor but wish it was available in a 2 door. I am going for looks over performance right now. Let's say you get a 2.7L Sasquatch (doesn't matter what trim) and add the following:

-Bronco Raptor or Ranger Raptor rims
-Bronco Raptor grille
-Bronco Raptor Headlights and Taillights
-Maybe a 2.7L tune?

Now for the big question. Would Bronco Raptor Suspension pieces, hood, bumper and fender flares bolt right up to a regular a Bronco?

Thanks!

Edit: Nevermind a shorter wheelbase won't hurt things
I really want the upgraded he steering rack out of all the raptor parts…oh and the dash they should have put in the regular broncos from the start😔

I'll be honest, I love that grille except for one minor detail. I wish the letters weren't as spaced out. Otherwise than that I love it and your bumper!

You are correct but can’t get in badlands I don’t believe for some odd reason and I already own my badsquatch. I would just like to purchase the rack from ford and install myself but I don’t see a chance of them selling for a few years at best

Yah I'm wondering when they'll start selling it as an accessory.

That is definitely a knock off grill. Here is an OEM on my two-door:

There was a thread a couple weeks back on this topic. There is an issue with coding anything but the OEM rack with non-matching VINs. Theretically, this is to prevent theft.

Basically, a guy did the install; which wasn’t that bad, but couldn’t get the hook ups to work properly until there is a hack or workaround. Not sure he has that sorted just yet.

No, the suspension pieces off a Braptor do NOT bolt right up, unfortunately there are numerous differences. the differences are... lug bolt patterns, UCA mounts, tie rod taper, UCA and LCA ball joint tapers, knuckles, unit bearings, ABS sensors, CV joints, and IWE, of course the shock towers and UCA angle are also different. . all of these need a work around to make it function.

To get partially there, rumour has it Ranger Raptor parts might fit the Bronco platform, giving you extra width and extra wheel travel. UCA, LCA, axles, knuckles, new shocks will all be needed.

I started piecing together part numbers, but have since lost interest as realistically I have yet to push my Bronco past the point of it's current usability.

Here is the list I put together so far. I have *NOT* verified fitment or validated front shock details. Use at your own discretion but if you're looking for a jumping off point, this could be worth something to someone. This list is also NOT all-encompassing or validated for correctness.


If someone has performed this work, however, I'd love to hear about it.

I can't verify that all the part numbers are exactly correct however your assumptions are absolutely correct! I HAVE VERIFIED all of the parts will bolt right on from the ranger Raptor although you would also need the brake calipers and rotors and caliper brackets that's because the Bronco ones don't fit on the RR knuckle ( you could also just use Bronco Knuckle) and finally a sway bar link for each side.
