Persactly! When I compared the OEM parts, it looks like the Bronco has hardware and gasket included. I honestly think that's the difference. I would think ford would use as many as the same parts between the two to keep things easier. @CVF-Jason, send me one!
So I must've got a bad one.. my 2.3 bronco connection is a 3 bolt. Let me try the ranger one for you and see if it fits, dm me and I'll send you my address. I will be the R&D department for you guys. If it fits mine, I'm sure it'll fit any other of us that have the 3 bolt connections on the 2.3.
I actually talked to CVF not too long ago, and was told that it would be passed on to Jason and if enough people were interested they would do it. Not sure if @CVF-Jason is the Jason, but I'm pretty sure there are enough people that are dying to get their hands on one!
Awesome area, I used to live around there. A really good road to drive at night is NM 244 from Mescalero to Cloudctoft. You will see a ton of elk around there. Sweet ride!
