1988 Ford Bronco II XLT review from North America
"A very good offroad truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I will start out by saying my first problem was when I had to replace the valve cover gaskets at around 147,000 when I bought it. Then the fan clutch was broken, thermostat, exhaust manifold and most recent a blown brake line.
General comments?
This truck has an underpowered engine, but it is pretty quick for that small size engine it has.
