1989 Ford Bronco II XLT review from North America
"An expensive 4x4"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My Transmition went the day I bought the thing Had to Rebuild it Cost $2400 because it's a auto with Overdrive.
All 4 springs, and shocks have broke the fronts fell out and landed on the street well I was comeing to a stop.
The drive shaft broke 4 times luckly the product was under warranty the 2 3 and 4.
The rear drums and shoes I had to do then like a month later the rear wheel cylinders went.
Front disc's, pads, Lines, and calipers I had to replace.
The arm rest was broken went I got it which is common on bronco 2s.
Muffler, cats and O2 sensor had to be replaced.
General comments?
Very ruff ride, its power isn't all that bad nor the offroading, the 4x4 handles great in the snow, but stopping is a different story.
Also has very small storage space.
