That BD looks like a nice build. I could do without the blue grab handles as well.

Wtf............
Looks like the front and rear seats are different (Cloth vs. MGV?).
I'll try to get some measurements of the backseat footwell tomorrow.This is awesome. What is the backseat footwell like in the 2D? How deep/approx length and width? I’ll be deleting my rear seats and either building or buying a plate system and I’m curious to see if we’ll be able to build in a storage hatch on the plate where the rear footwell is like on 4D Wranglers.
Thanks for the comparisons. As mid 90’s full-size trucks are closer in size to today’s mid size trucks, I informally compared the 4 Door Bronco to a K5 Blazer/6 Gen Bronco and they have similar dimensions. The GM/Ford models from the past weighed in at just under 4,600 lbs and have similar interior dimensions and capacities of the Bronco 4 Door.So I have been trying to get this set up for awhile, but today the stars finally aligned. A buddy of mine was able to bring by one of the pre-production (This point is key for later) 2021 Black Diamonds by with the base package, upgraded wheels and tires (32s), and with the roof rails. We met at a nearby park and parked it next to my 1996 Eddie Bauer with it's 31s. We parked near the drain, so that's the reason they both seem to "lean".
Here are your comparison pictures:
Over-all height comparison:
Cargo space comparison:
Front seat side by side cabin space:
Front seat to back seat space comparison:
Width across the hood comparison:
Length from bumper to bumper with tape on the ground comparison:
Finally this one had the sound dampening head liner:
I'll measure it again tomorrow with the tape bumper to bumper.Nope. Too short. 174 for the 2021 2 door. Thanks for not exaggerating the length!

Not trying to bust your chops. Just don’t want people freaking out that’s it’s 30” shorter than it is.I'll measure it again tomorrow with the tape bumper to bumper.
Oh no, I get you. For sure. To be fair the 96 also can up 20 shorter, so it was probably how we laid it on the ground. We'll figure it out tomorrow, and get some more pictures.Not trying to bust your chops. Just don’t want people freaking out that’s it’s 30” shorter than it is.
Since it’s basically the same length as my Escape, I called it as I saw it! Thanks again for taking the time to take all the pictures you did. Seeing them through members pictures way better than the B&P! By the way, how does the CO look in person to you?Oh no, I get you. For sure.

That makes my decision to go auto and 2.7 even easier. I don’t just want decent power in 6 to gear. Even though I really want the manual I just can’t sacrifice power to get it.I did not get to drive it, I rode in the passenger seat. We drove out to a different park, about 40 minutes one way. Manual was fine, he was in sport mode. He said it still had decent power even in 6th on the freeway.
It's more from seat back to seat back...But look at the measurement on the actual seat. The 96 seat is a LOT shallower than the 21's.Interesting comparison, obviously the Eddie is generally larger but does that interior measurement indicate the 6G model has more backseat space......the distance from the rear back seat to the rear of the front seat?
Or were the seats in different positions?
