Hello. I have had my bronco since 2006 the 2.9 gave out in 2009. I bought a wrecked 94 exploder sport and swaped in the 4.0 and dash. Then painted it. About 2 weeks after that a hail storm beat it up pretty bad and cracked the windshield so I lost interest in it. Well now im back. lol.I had a new windshield Put in Tuesday. Now just have to save for a lift and tires. I think im just going to do a 3in body lift and try to fit 31x10.50s on it for now. here some pics

How hard was the dash swap?

I'm getting ready to swap my stuff over (including dash) to a rust free 87

It was simple. I figured it would be easier than making the explorer wiring harness work with the bronco dash.

Yeah, I've heard it's much easier..basically plug in and go.

You've got a good looking bronco! What are your plans?

That's a really nice Bronco II. I plan on doing the 4.0 swap once the 2.8 in my '84 gives up.
