Bronco with 4" lift and 5.8 roller motor

1990 bronco 190k...maybe 90k, can't tell...I swapped out 1000 miles ago the old 5.0 engine and swapped in a 5.8 roller cam engine from a 96 bronco...before swapping the 5.8 in I put in new clevite connecting rod and main bearings. Engine is mated to an AOD trans which is in great shape. Truck has factory 4.10 gears....4wd works perfect. Rear driveshaft just rebuilt by a shop (u joints) and shaft rebalanced...Truck has thick custom y pipe with primary cat removed and rear cat hollowed out...3" at y to magnaflow cat back exhaust. Blue interior. 4" rancho lift...no lift blocks...dual shocks up front.

I used a 93 computer so it pops codes for an e4od that it thinks should be there but that's not...ideally you should swap in an 87-89 5.8 computer...Other than that it has a bit of a high idle and low fuel pressure...runs and drives anywhere, but i can't floor it. I've just picked up a new fuel pump (brand new fuel pressure regulator) that I'll include. Included also is smittybilt front/rear bumpers (not installed) and all the original 5.0 accessories if you want them so that you can put the smog pump back on if you need smog....I'll also include a three way catalytic converter that you can weld in if you need to pass emissions.

Truck runs and was my DD...I just got a job where I'm driving 40k a year and needed something newer...while it def needs some more stuff done to it, it's solid and has no rust....clean title, current registration for Cali..

This is my best price...I've dropped the price a TON just to push it and get the cash quick to help pay for the other truck I've already purchased.

truck has stock painted black grill on it now
