Default How similar are the broncos to the f150's?

Well I am looking at Broncos now, mainly 92-96 and was wondering how similar they are with the F150's, chassis wise. I am assuming they are pretty similar, since they look identical in the front and interior. But doesn't always mean they are the same. Also, does anyone know of a bronco specific forum? I don't want to be bringing my questions in here. Thanks guys

Exactly the same as the 117in wheelbase F150. FullSizeBronco (http://fullsizebronco.com/forum/) is a great forum for Bronco owners.

Feel free to bring your questions in here. There isnt much we wont be able to answer.

haha thanks guys, thanks for the quick replies too! I've always liked the bronco, and since I wanted to get a camper shell if I had a truck to lock my stuff up, I figured a bronco would work fine! haha.

Some people say Bronco's are F-150's in drag! Although, I have no idea were a rumor like that would have gotten started! Anybody?? Honestly, they're great. My motorcycle barely fits on my 8ft. bed or I'd seriously consider one. Sound systems in Bronco's tend to be a tad less problematic also. Good luck!

Your suggesting I could find that many people willing to sit in a confined space w/ me for an extended period of time? Thanks! No, as I mentioned , I really like them, I just couldn't resist tossing the joke out there. I thought everybody was used to me by now, after 600 posts! I forgot to tell him to look for one w/ MAF!
