haha didn't sell the mustang, i just bought it in august... i sold my bronco. it's been i the trader for a while and it finaly sold yesterday for 6,000. it was my first vehicle. i intedned to build it for off road stuff, but never had the time to take it out. (i guess this is kind of like my bronco's eulogy lol)

here it is the day i brought it home. 1990 bronco XLT


here is what it sold as. 6" lift 35" tires, exhaust, stereo and random stuff.


just some of the few times i got to take it out with the bronco club.

box canyon



bartlett lake






i'll miss it but i also love my mustang. now that the bronco is sold i can buy some stuff for the mustang. so i started it off with subframes and an MGW shifter. well, see you guys around

That was a good looking bronco. It wasn't 4x4 though was it?

No, why? I don't see any 4x4 markings, it doesn't look like the front wheels have manual locking hubs (which one that old would have).

They never made a non-4x4 for sale in the US.

Nice bronco I have a 90 eddie B. as well.

Damn you people in the south west with your dry, non-rusting conditions.

He has manual hubs look at the red line on the center of the rims, also see the pumpkin in one of the pics of the front diff.

What I cannot tell is if it has a SAS done or if he is still riding on the TTB.

no it was still the TTB. i wanted to do an SAS but it was too expensive and i never really go to take it off roading enough to justify it. oh and it did have manual hubs and manual BW transfer case and the 351W. it was a great bronco.

Here's the question of the day. What the hell were you planning on using that itty bitty spare for? Something to sit on while you wait for someone to bring you a replacement? Very nice Bronco btw.
My Father-in-law has a 79 Bronco sitting in his pasture. I know it is hard to believe, but the truck doesn't have any rust other than the driver floorboard from that window being down. The body is perfectly straight, but the entire drivetrain, steering, etc is disassembled (there, but not together). He bought it for the wheels and tires, and wants $500. I've been trying to convince the ol lady, but I'm having a hard time considering the 71 F-100 isn't done yet.

The rear spare tire mount will not hold a larger tire very well, The way it mounts to the rear quarter it will pull/tear the bolts and quarter panel to hell, put a full size spare (well for 33's and larger) on there and it is going to be useless. Put a large tire on a roof rack or inside. Unless you fab up a new rear mount that mounts to the rear bumper to take the load off the body panel, and make it out of stronger/bigger/thicker bar.

A stock size tire up to like a 31in is about as big as should be put on the stock rear mount, even 31's are pushing it, Mine is showing stress cracks from the 31 on my rear mount.

ya i had a full size 35'' spare in the back for off roading, but didn't put it on for the reason stated above. i kept the factory spare on the back incase i got a flat on the road. who wants to carry a full size in the back all the time? i had open diffs so the different size wouldn't matter.
