This is how an Engine gets changed in a Bronco.

Just found this picture from a dealer that had to change out one of the 2.7 engines. I've never had to change out an engine like that before

Gone are the days of rolling the engine around on a hoist. Guess it's not a diy project. Or maybe since the bronco is meant to be modular it's easier than a welded chassis and body

Yeah, after posting the pic I saw it's not that uncommon these days. If you have a lift I can see where it would make it easier than the way we used to do it. I'd get a lift if I thought I'd get much use out of it but I don't think I would.

I see used lifts for $2k, if my garage had the head space I’d already have one.

I've seen the portable ones too. You kind of unfold them bolt them together

This popped up on my FB feed, people putting V8's in the bronco, how long until one of you do the same to a raptor?

Ford Superduty's have the cab lifted for major engine service/replacement, I'm guessing its the easiest way for body on frame truck based vehicles.

I would be surprised to see BRaptor owners upgrading their engines. At least initially, because we have no reason to believe it is underpowered. Plus, if you wanted a monster V8-powered Bronco, you wouldn’t start with an $80+K Raptor, but more likely with a Base Bronco (<$40K), then feel better about going nuts on mods and upgrades.
