1989 Ford Bronco II XLT 4X4 2.9 E.F.I
Summary:
Reliable, sure footed 4X4
Faults:
Power steering pump leaked.
Window motors.
Changed all hoses and belts.
Brakes being redone.
Oil pump failed.
Oil pressure and temperature gauges died.
Shocks replaced.
General Comments:
I have replaced many other things since purchasing it. However I do find it to be fairly reliable. I can't complain about the work I've done to it. Hell that's routine for any car over 100,000 miles.
Truck handles beautifully, on and off road. Also very stable on ice. Everything is in great shape, paint, interior, and drivetrain. Interior looks new.
The only thing I find lacking is the amount of power. That shall be remedied shortly!
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Hi, you said the truck was a Bronco II and had been converted to a soft top. Did you have this done? I am considering having this done to my '89 Bronco II, but have not found anyplace to get the top. Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Garrett
