Used Ford Bronco II

ford bronco II 150
The Ford Bronco II was another compact SUV which was available in the market from 1984 until 1990. Ford Bronco II was produced by Ford to offer an alternative to the other company’s models such as Chevrolet S10 Blazer and Toyota 4 Runner.

The Ford Bronco II was Ford’s first compact sport utility vehicle (SUV) after the original full-size Bronco which was produced from 1966 to 1977. Ford Bronco II is typically smaller then the first Bronco, but is identical to the Ford Ranger mechanically and structurally, with some exception in details.

While all full-size Broncos were four-wheel drive, it is optional in Bronco II. One of the weak points of Bronco II is the tendency of the cylinder head to crack when the engine overheats. This in turn can cause leakage of the internal coolant which can further contaminate the oil. This situation if not discovered on time can lead to severe damage in the engine.

Estimated Price Range for Used Ford Bronco: $1,250 – $22,000
Estimated MPG for Used Ford Bronco: 11 City/16 Hwy

The Ford Bronco, a sport-utility vehicle (SUV), was originally launched to compete against the Jeep CJ 5 and International Harvester Scout from 1966 until 1996. It was Ford Motor Company’s first compact SUV.

Generally, Broncos can be grouped into two categories: First Broncos produced in 1966 to 1977 and the full-size Broncos built from 1978 until 1996. However, the standard Bronco should be four-wheel drive and has low range. These characteristics didn’t change for 30 years of its production. There were just a few available two-wheel drive Broncos, but they were made to be sold outside the United States.

The full-size Broncos were manufactured at Ford’s Michigan Truck Plant which is located in Wayne, Michigan. This is the same plant were Broncos’ successor, Expedition, were also produced. The use of coil springs gave Bronco a 34-ft turning circle and long wheel travel. It has an anti-dive geometry which is effective for snowplowing.
