I’m the proud owner of a Bronco Raptor, it’s code orange, tuned by Whipple at Whipple with the Whipple intercooler. It has the digital mud decals it truly is all things bad ass!! But the thing is, I’m also the owner of a little 2 door manual Black Diamond non Sasquatch that I love. I’ve done a few things to it to make it my own including adding a Sasquatch take-off suspension from a 4 door 2.7 liter that gave me an awesome height for my 35” ko2’s wrapped around old school AR172 Bajas, it also allowed me to add a hidden winch and keep the truck level. I’ve replaced all the speakers, and added a sub to make those top-off rides a musical experience for all the drivers around me 😆. Along with that I added the Bimini from GearShade the IAG steps and I have a bunch of other parts sitting in the garage. Including some Icon delta joint upper control arms, AC Fab sway bar disconnects, and a Hammerbuilt tailgate reinforcement, to name a few. Well next weekend I’m going camping with the fellas, there’s some little trails around the lake and when the subject came up of which one to take I knew I wanted to take the little 2 door, it is fun, it is simple and it just feels like something from the 60s that was brought into the modern age.

Thats it, rant over, just been enjoying my little 2 door and wanted to talk about it ❤

Personal taste, but i would take that 2 dr BD over the brapter all day long

looks great
Thanks, if I had to choose one I’d likely go with the 2 door, it’d be a tough choice tho…

That's why I ordered a 2 Dr Manuel thee Tranny Badlands...I wanted a simple little truck like my Dad's friend had back in the early 70s.
Only this thang has about 40 computers in it.

Nice stable, enjoy both. I have a two door as well which is plenty big enough for me. I took a different route. I choose manual base but Sasquatch. I'm just amazed at how big it is next to last gen bronco.

Thank you!!

Sounds like a nice rig, the Sasquatch was a good choice. I definitely think an upgraded front axle with locker is in my future on the 2 door.

That's my plan as well. I just can't decide if I want to go the "cheap" route and just do the 4.46 M210 front with locker (about $2600 with the axles and drive-shafts), or go all out and do the 5.13s. Probably closer to $4k all in.

Definitely go with the 5.13!

Nice bronco's. I have 2 door also and love it far more than the 4 door I used to have. The raptor is definitely awesome looking, but if they made it in a 2 door it would be even better.
