Was not sure if i posted in the newbie forum or not. Checked and could not find my post was not sure if it got deleted or not.
Have a 1987 Bronco 2. Got it for a used dealership that buys and sells cars from auctions. Bought it cause i used to have one and liked it and still wishing the one that i got know was a manual trans instead of a auto but at least it has manual hubs and not the auto crap.
Manage to get it for 550 when the dealer was asking 1200 for it even with a salvage title. Dealer said the 4x4 did not work so he sold it to me for 550 instead of 1200 that he wanted since he was not going to try to fix or know what it would to take to get the 4x4 part to work.
Found the problem to be the transfer case shift motor being bad and that all it was and know the 4wd works like a charm.
The only damage that it has is the fender and bumper smashed up a little bit and that it. And the driver seat won't move forward or back and got luck the person was about my height and don't have to worry about trying to move the seat.
So far i have put new shocks and tires on it. Have explorer springs to put on it just got to find some new bushings for the springs before i put then on to the b2. Don't make since to put them on and then have to take them off to replace the rubbers on the springs.
before pictures with 15 in tires.
And after pictures with 31x10.5 tires.
Sorry about picture quality of the second picture. It is snowing out side again in Iowa.
