1984 Ford Bronco II from North America - Comments

I bought a 1984 ford bronco 2, I had a friend go over it the only thing wrong with it is the servo cover (7d027) is broke not the problem of ford, but of the previous owner.I have looked high and low for the part no one can get it for me. The transmission is otherwise fine so I don't want to, but the whole thing I only need the one part if any one can help me my email is Trypod02@msn.com.

OK I just bought my 84' Bronco II 2.8 5-speed 4x4, it was running great, but then the starter fell off. I replaced it and it fell off again. Now I replaced it again and used a shim and lock nuts. I figured out that the ears of the starter are ripping right off. Does anyone know what the problem is? If you can help me please email me at aaronbjornberg@hotmail.com

Thanks,

Aaron.

My 1984 Bronco II has 106,000 miles on it and it is still running strong. This truck has a certain charm about it. I have owned several trucks and I like this one the best. I only use it to pull my boat in the summer.

It is very comfortable and has lots of pep. It sits a lot during the winter and the gas tank rotted out. I got a new tank online for $119, replaced the windshield and I am off and running again.

I love this little SUV.

I just bought my 1984 Bronco II 4x4 about 4 months ago, since it was originally purchased in 84 it has gone through 7 owners not including me. This truck acts like it just came out of the factory. It runs great, has just the right amount of power, and just tears up what ever terrain I throw at it. It is one of the best vehicles I have ever owned.

It has a 3" body lift with 32" Swamper's on it, and man it just goes through anything. I've tried a few times to purposely get it stuck and I only succeeded once when I completely buried it up past the axles with mud. Great vehicle.

After all of the abuse its been through the only problems it has are the couple of rust spots, and right now I have broken the rear drive shaft, talk about tough, for the last 3 weeks I've been driving around with the front wheels locked so it will still go even without the rear shaft!!

I've recently bought a bronco-II last month, though it has a rebuilt 2.8 liter motor that still needs some work it is in the shop having a manifold and rear leaf spring shackle work done. this is my first truck and I love this little guy I'm impressed with the way it drives. shifts and climbs hills, I'm going to have fun fixing this little buck up. their neat looking too!

I have owned my Bronco II for 6 years. It is a 89 with

the 2.9 Engine. I really love this truck. It now has

140,000 miles and I'm afraid it's trying to die on me.

I've read a lot of negative info on the internet about the

2.9 engine. I had to replace the valve cover gaskets, leaking bad, and changed the fuel filter and pcv valve and the oil light came on and stayed on. I have it back in the shop, but everyone tells me to sell now... because it is about to get expensive. Any comments??

I just bought a 84'bronco2 about six months ago. So far I have camoflaged it and put another 2.8 motor back in it.

And wanted to put a 3" body lift in it, a 4" spenp. lift, and some mud tires some time this summer.

My name is Zack, I bought 84" Bronco2 about six months ago it had a blown motor, and 211,000 miles on it when I bought it. So far I have camoflanged it, and I have also put another 2.8 motor back in it, And I have put a 8000 Ilb. winch, a push bar and some fog lights. It is a 4-speed manual and it is very powerful for a 2.8 V-6.

In the furture:

I plan to put a 3" body lift on it,3"-4" senpense lift. And a set of 33x10.50R15 mud tires. And maybe a bigger motor and transmisson.

I have a 1984 Ford Bronco II with just over 100,000 Miles. I love the 4WD in this thing. An old lady owned it and didn't check the oil, well you know the story. Anyway, it has a new motor and the motor only has about 20,000 miles on it tops. I Love my Bronco. I was glad to hear that the 84's are getting a little bit rare. Mine is in perfect condition and I have done many minor things to make it even better. New tires (bigger), a huge stereo system, and much more. I just wanted to put my two cents in on this things. I recommend that everyone who owns one of these drop a quart of Lucas Oil Stabilizer. It helped to get mine back up to par and gave it some lost power back. Plus it gets rid of some of that Engine noise that Bronco's are known for. I have owned two of these Bronco's, an 87 and an 84. I definitely like the carbeurated 2.8L much better. I am getting about 21MPG now after a hefty tune up...

The 1984 Bronco II is a great little truck, especially when equipped with the C5 automatic transmission. There are some problems with the carburetor and ignition that can be remedied rather inexpensively if you know what to do. Do-it-yourselfers can get on the 2.8 forum on rangerstation. com to get all the information they need to keep this little gem going. I have one, and plan to keep it forever.
