[contentlocked99]

im probably trading my truck for a bronco ii, ive never owned a ford lol let alone a 4x4 i hope i get some fun out of it.

nice vid

[bearcoldheart]

my wish is for Ford to bring back the Bronco's both full size and the and the Bronco II . The Exploerer and Expedition both suck !

[LilBluBroncoII]

@bearcoldheart 1st gen Xplorers aren't bad as they are just oversized BII's. I built and wheel my '93 X Sport almost identical to my BII.

[bearcoldheart]

@LilBluBroncoII got any videos of the exploerer in action ?

dude sweet rig i got an 89 with a trac-loc rear that ive had for about 6 years now i put goodyear 7.00-15lt super custom grips that measured up to 30" other then that stock and i can out wheel my buddies wrangler with 33" and a 4 inch lift

[svt88]

Nice rig man. I have a 86 so i understand the love.  did u keep stock axles or upgrade?

[LilBluBroncoII]

@svt88 Kept the stock 7.5 w/trac-loc rear. Kept the D28 for a couple of years then upgraded to the Dana 35 TTB from a 90 BII and added an ARB air locker.

[keith91z28]

What size tire were you running on this B2?

[LilBluBroncoII]

@keith91z28 Started with 30x9.5R15 Uniroyal MT's. Most of the video she's wearing 32x10.5R15 TSL Radials. At the very end I stepped up to 33x10.5-15 Boggers. With the minimal lift I ran it took a bit of fender trimming to squeeze them in.

[keith91z28]

@LilBluBroncoII Beautiful truck btw. Is this one and the Camo II both yours? Also were you locked at all front or rear and what gearing? And did you just have a body lift? Sorry for all the questions, I'm just considering getting one of these to build over my s10 blazer. I love my blazer, just no options for stuff for the front ifs.

[LilBluBroncoII]

@keith91z28 Camo II is my best friend and wheeling buddy. Up front I ran a Lock-Right in the D28 front for a few years. Then upgraded to a Dana 35 TTB from a 90 BII and added an ARB air locker. In the rear I kept the stock 7.5 with factory Trac-Loc. I ran 3.73's with both 30" and 32" tires. Then switched to 4.10's the same time I swapped in the D35 front. I had a 2" suspension lift (coils front and add-a-leave rear) and 1 1/2" body lift.

[keith91z28]

@LilBluBroncoII Awesome, thanks for the answers, I'll be looking into a b2 for my next project 4x4.

i got a mint 87 eddie bower bronco 2 i live it

[leebirdwell]

I love this video. I also like Road Warrior 72's videos of his B2. I have an 88 that I rescued one of my sons from. He bought it with a bad head and maybe an oil pump. Haven't had the money to fix it up yet, but I am getting there. Punks in the neighborhood shot out the back window with a pellet gun, so now I get to learn how to put a back window in. Convicted Ford addict now. Don't want anything from companies that are so poorly managed that the government had to bail them out. FORD FOREVER!

[estok4x4]

Sweet. I just spent Memorial Day weekend wheeling a buddies '89 Bronco II, now I want one lol.

[trevor40069]

did u run the 2.9 if so how could i do easy upgrade to mine?

[LilBluBroncoII]

@trevor40069 yes running the 2.9. I didn't do any real performance upgrades. Just some quality aftermarket parts when needed.

[RoadWarrior72]

I shouldn't have sold mine... :( I miss it.. BAD!! lil Blu kicks ass.. So it's gone now?

[LilBluBroncoII]

@RoadWarrior72 Yeah it's gone. The body was falling off, and the engine was toast. I miss mine too. Now I'm wheeling the 93 Explorer. It's not the same, but it still Ford!! Someday a BII will back in my stable.

[RoadWarrior72]

@LilBluBroncoII Ya I agree with ya. I had to sell my BII so that I could have gas money to move to Michigan so I could work for Ford... :) I bleed blue and that's all I will ever drive.. Hope to get another BII someday.
