Faults:

Not much, this summer I replaced the valve cover gaskets and the electric door lock on the driver's side.

Exhaust system will need to be replaced soon.

General Comments:

This to me was a find of a lifetime, a one owner from Denver, always taken cared for and it shows, two tone paint, red-white, that some say I had the truck painted.

Fully loaded and fun to own in both summer and winter. I just love it, and no it's not for sale, when I go it then can go.

Faults:

I had a problem with the brakes, and spent too much money fixing them. The left front brake was the only thing stopping the vehicle.

Inside is like brand new.

Needs a new exhaust.

General Comments:

This vehicle isn't that bad, even though it was a 4 by 4 and was converted by the previous owner to 4 by 2 before I acquired it.

Faults:

When I purchased it, it had a newly rebuilt motor with only 12000 miles and it ran beautifully.

Rear CV driveshaft went out at 167000 - 175 to rebuild.

General Comments:

My Bronco II came with 2 inches of lift and street tires when I bought it, after about 10000 miles I replaced them with 31x10.50 all-terrains and she never got stuck anywhere.

Well once trying to climb some rocks with the street tires, but I mean come on.

Only gripe I had with it was the lack of ability to hold the speed limit in 5th (Over-Drive) gear at 70 on a windy day while on cruise control.

Great fun on the beach, in the mud, or out on some back trail, shame I rolled it goofing around in a ditch with some friends. I wanted to keep her but my father had other plans.

Faults:

The heads were pulled and rebuilt at 16181 miles, still leaked water into crank case. Put used motor in.

General Comments:

Inside the Bronco II is beautiful. No cracks on dash or rips in the seats. Very nice for comfort.

Faults:

The head gasket blew at 60,000 miles - $500.00 to fix.

The oil pump went out at 72,000 miles.

Crankshaft had to be replaced - $1300.00.

The cylinder head cracked at 80,000 miles - $600.00 to fix.

The oil pump went out at 88,000 miles - 900.00 to repair (the engine must be pulled).

The camshaft bearings went out and the motor started knocking badly. Replaced the engine with a rebuilt one. 3300.00 to replace.

General Comments:

The oil and filters were changed every 3000 miles and the vehicle was maintained properly. My mechanic says the 2.9L engines are junk. I can't afford to buy new vehicle or I would junk this heap!!

The only positive thing I will say is it is comfortable and is easy to drive.

If you have over 50000 miles on one you are driving a time bomb.

I will go back Japanese (Nissan) as my 200SX had over 175000 miles and the valve covers were never pulled on it.

Faults:

Clutch 140k, again at 200k.

Water pump at 185k.

Power steering pump & lines at 210k.

Rear driveshaft CV joints at 150k, 190k and 230k.

Valve cover gaskets at 120k, and again at 240k.

Starter motor at 180k.

General Comments:

Lots of work done on the car, but nothing I couldn't handle.

Incredibly reliable. Never had to call for a tow.

Parts readily available, cheap.
