Happy Saturday guys. My son and I are fixing up an old 84 bronco 2 and have rebuilt the carb, replaced starter, plugs, starter solenoid among some other small things.
The current issue that just started recently after replacing the starter is it will not start in Park. If I shift down to...
Ahhh makes sense. I will look into that and see if that's something I would feel comfortable enough undertaking.
Funny enough our BII was actually driven by myself and my two brothers in high school. Then we all went off to college leaving her behind with my dad who kept up for the next...
Appreciate your two pennies! Truly it’s very helpful to hear insight from others.
So here is my priority list:
1. Suspension - Have to figure out which way to go and have the smoothest ride possible with 3-4” lift. Right now I’m leaning towards a 4” body lift with gap spacers, all new poly...
Thanks for the welcome and the info! Question. When you say you like the road feel better with the suspension lift can you elaborate? I’m wanting some height and bigger tires but this will mainly be a daily driver and I want it to ride as comfortable as possible.
Sounds like you’re just a few steps ahead of us haha. He and I both have wish lists.
His list:
4in suspension lift
31 or 32 in tires
Paint
Sound system
Off road lights

My list:
3-4” Lift
31 or 32 in tires
Paint
Sound system

Hi all, just starting our father son project turning our 84 Ford Bronco 2 2.8L 4wd into his first high school vehicle. I know there will be a large learning curve but he is beyond excited about the potential and I’m beyond excited for the bonding time. I’ve enjoyed reading the forum for a while...
I figured $1500 for the 4” suspension lift, $12-1500 for new wheels and tires. $500 for new paint (I’ll do the body work and painting myself). $100 for seat covers. $350 for new dash cover and vinyl flooring. $300 for sound system. And about $500 for other mechanical replacements/upgrades should...
Thanks for the reply but even more for your service!
Ive got a TPS ordered and will throw it in when it gets here.
A local body shop that does great work quoted me about $1500 for parts and install of a Rough Country 4” suspension lift. Think it’s worth it to just do that? Then I could throw...
Hi guys, first post here so forgive any ignorance you come across. I have an 84 2.8L Bronco2 4wd that my youngest son is begging to turn into his first high school vehicle. He loves helping me with vehicles but my knowledge is lacking.
A few questions to start:
He wants to lift it and put on...
