Quick question for anyone.

I got a chance at a 5.4 triton and tranny. Big question is will it fit in my 1988 FS bronco. Anyone done this swap before? Is it doable? Or should I just go beat my head against brick wall?

Even if it fits you will need the computer and all the peripherals to go with it so it will run. The EEC-IV computer in your Bronco won't run that engine/tranny setup.

Got that covered. THis comes with just about everything but the radiator as it was destroyed in the rollover. Motor, tranny, computer, transfer case might even use the axles. This is coming out of a totaled 97 f150 4x4.

It can be done with some fabbed up mount brackets. The frame rail spacing is different, I believe. You have room and if you get all peripherals should be able to accomplish this, but you're going to have to do some fabricating, I'm pretty sure.
