The 392 is actually my wife's. We needed a four door for our three big ass dogs and she test drove the 392 and was hooked. I'm not mad about it though and I didn't pay ADM. I wish Ford offered a Coyote powered Bronco. That would be pretty cool.
See my thread on Big Oly, flipped during race, uprighted and continued on. But, hey if any CJ out there changes hands north of a million it probably could flip and right itself (75) Big Oly takes a beating but keeps on ticking | Bronco6G - 2021+ Ford Bronco & Bronco Raptor Forum, News, Blog & Owners CommunityJeep Wrangler owners are just angry that a smart car can easily flipped them over if hit on the right spot and since the safety rating for jeeps are like 1 star if they flipped they prob not getting back up
It is my humble opinion that the sloppy steering is unrelated to recirculating ball +/- axle type. It took Ford until 1974 to adopt rack and pinion (initially in the Mustang), but I believe the Jeep steering slop develops from the 4 link (control arms to Jeepers)with Panhard rod front suspension in the Wrangler that is essentially unchanged from the first Cherokees. These 2 links per side are mounted to vehicle at their rear points, not front and so you are pushing the axle with the frame instead of pulling it, Try pushing a rope. If they were trailing arms instead of leading arms. Regardless of axle type, single or double A-arms with McPherson struts are far better in my book
what do I gain from you watching my YouTube channel?Another sad attempt to steer traffic to your YT channel. You're purposely posting in the wrong area as well. Lame.
So 1st off as someone who loves all vehicles. How do you like your 392? I had looked at 1 but just like Ford if you found 1 on the lot huge markup. but read a couple of things on Jeep forums that they had a issue dissipating heat because of the size of the engine? Curious and this is totally not something designed to bring out the snarky jerks that at times seem to lurk in forums
I’ve had zero heat issues with it and I honestly love it. The 4WD all the time makes it super fun to drive on the street especially if you just want to rip it off the line. Great exhaust tone too and so far has been great on the trails. I added 35’s and saw no decrease in power or drivability. Hope That answers your question.
If they would have put the 392 in my Gladiator I’d still have her.
I love the idea of the big V8 and horsepower. I miss that sound and no desire to try and modify my Bronco exhaust wise. I think the 392's all come Hardtop? But guessing you can put like a Bestop on it maybe?
Wonder what mileage the 392 crowd is seeing. Year ago I had the V8 Dodge Dakotas and they got as good or better mileage than the v6 motors.
im roughly around 14mpg. It’s a 21 gallon tank and if I cruise I’ll get roughly 300 miles to the tank.
I made a video sharing my personal experience owning both. I guess if you look at a 2 door car versus 4 door car or maybe a 2 door truck versus a 4 door. Usually there is a big difference in the vehicles. But not so much for the Broncos and I had people asking me on my YouTube channel asking me to make a video.
