I don't think I've be here 2 years. Others have been here 4 years. And over a full year ago we had guys breaking into joints with tape measuring devices for trunk inches. Data sheets for suspension heights. Back end servers for grill specs.
Math nerds were on high alert.

Now we have broncos landing in people's driveways. And no is pulling out the tape measure for the engine bay? Distance between strut towers x radiator to fire wall.. you know what I'm getting at.
I haven't measured it with a tape but using my calibrated eye, it looks like there is plenty of room under the hood for a bigger engine.

I have no idea what you’re getting at.
YOU have no idea what you’re getting at.

Engine bay dimensions? No reasonable person would consider an engine swap based only on those dimensions. What else might you be considering?
I'm waiting for someone to design up some real inner fender liners.

I hope you appreciate my trip out into the cold, wet world. Plus a skunk somewhere decided to bestow upon me a stench unlike anything else. Somewhere close by and highly offensive.
Now hold on... How do we know this is YOUR Bronco (or a Bronco at all)? You could be trying to set us up for one of those Nigerian enging swap scams that I heard about on NPR last week. Not that I care, as I am waiting on a fat Lottery windfall from an Uncle that I never knew I had, then I plan on having a 12 V 71 Detroit diesel swapped into my Bronco. It's gonna' be bitchin'!

Front to back or left to right? I can point to several V8s in an east-west config. And who says the V8 has to go up front? Think in the bed like the Little Red Wagon drag truck from the sixties
Ha!!! Been around a while if you remember that...

Do you want me to take a break from driving my First Edition around the mall parking lot and measure for you?

Maybe the bronco buyers are not as advanced level geeks as previously thought?

I'm still waiting to find out if this type of oem transponder key, can be paired with a bronco and work same as a key fob with a dead battery?

The value in a compact waterproof non-electronic key like this for being out in the wild hunting/fishing/backpacking/surfing/canoeing/kayaking is huge!
