These bronco ii's are something else. i just purchased mine. there are minor cracks in the floor in the rear of vehicle, the power steering pressure hose busted and brakes are incredibly hard to use to stop the suv. i found recall on the 1988 ranger for rear drum brakes that were the wrong size but i cannot find that recall for the bronco ii figuring it was made with the same parts would think that the drum size makes it hard to stop the vehicle without pumping. there are a few other problems also but these are the biggest ones i have had so far. the power steering pressure hose replacement makes the power steering come back. there is also a sputtering noise made by the engine when taking off from stop signs occasionally making the vehicle not accelerate. this problem could possibly cause an accident but has yet to affect the driving of the vehicle. *tr | |||
