Finally made a purchase!
After years of lurking, searching, saving, losing, saving again, asking around, and fighting hard, I've finally brought my very own Bronco home. She needs a LOT of TLC, but she runs pretty good, passes smog, and doesn't wander or shake violently down the highway. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09...

Re: Opinions?
Here are a few other options in your area. 92-96 have E4OD which is better than the AOD, and 95/96 were the best model years. Pricier, but it's a 96 with 50k less http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/5175736740.html Higher mileage but 95, desirable year http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/cto/5212342844...

Opinions?
I have posted before asking g about potential bronco buys. Life happens, and I'm still bronco less. But yesterday, I sold motorcycle and actually have cash burning a hole in my pocket. I'm headed to look (hesitant to buy) at a bronco about an hour away from me with the correct options I want, but wi...

Spare tire
If a 4rh Gen bronco didn't come from the factory with the spare on the swing arm out back (I don't know the technical term for it), is it possible to change it over? Like, is there an aftermarket kit, or can a factory one be applied? Or is that just asking for trouble drilling holes through the body?

Re: Auto to man transfer swap
Seems like searching for small potatoes depending on the build plan. It seams near impossible to find a late model without push button but how bad is it. I have never had an issue with ford stuff. The Cjevy vacumn stuff was horrible but is ford stuff really that bad. Also if it did happen to go bad...

Re: Auto to man transfer swap
My search lasted for many months. Ever time I saw a 96 with manual transfer the all were leakers with puddles under the motor. I was looking in AZ & CA. The one I found came from a ranchers wife in ElCentro. My advice is keep looking because the right one is out there. I'm still looking. Truth is, ...

Re: Auto to man transfer swap
The electric case isnt horrible. Mine never failed to operate... just excercise it regularly and the motor will last. I've seen them fail to many times. Not to mention, if I get stuck somewhere in 2 and need four, the auto system makes it difficult to get into four without travel space (to my knowl...

Awesome. So not could be done by someone mechanically inclined, but likes to work... Ahem... Under the influence? Hahahobbyturnedobsession wrote:Easy. You need a manual transfer case with the stick and linkage. The hole is covered by a panel.

Auto to man transfer swap
Been looking for a while for the perfect bronco. Got a lead on one almost perfect. It's a 91 Eddie Bauer, 5.8/ e40d. How hard is it to change the electronic transfer case control to a manual control on the floor?

Re: ATTN Newbs.
Hello, I'm Nathan. I currently do not own a bronco. I've always loved the 4th gen (87-91). I actually owned one for about 3 days, until it got stolen (Thank you Antioch police department for your completely useless officers). It was an 89. I had been trying to locate a steering column that it needed...
