Hello, new to the forum and to Bronco 2's.
I purchased an 89 model 4x4 today. It starts and runs fine. I did notice the automatic transmission is a bit slugish on take off. Would it be a good idea to service the transmission or should I check the fluid and leave it alone? I noticed a service sticker in the windshield were the motor oil has been recently changed. As far as the transfer case and running gear, should I drain and replace the gear oil? What else would be item's I should check?
It was raining today when I picked it up from the previous owner. The windshield is spiderwebed in the center and I noticed the floor board on the passenger side had standing water and the headliner was wet at the front edge along the windshield. I'm guessing the windshield seal is leaking. I called a local auto glass repair buisness today and they priced a new windshield at $250.00 installed. The valve covers and power steering are weeping oil so I will tackle that this weekend. Thanks in advance for any help!
