So I'm one of those guys that has a huge biased towards one car manufacture and dislikes the rest. -Ahem- Dodge. Hemi. Love. Hell yeah.
But anyways I was just cruising around in my Cherokee while it over heated like usual and found a Ford 1990 Bronco just sitting in this guys car port with a for sale sign on it. I asked him what he'd take and he said $1100. That's an epic price.
Well it has a 6 inch lift, 33s, front lockers, fender flares blah blah blah. No idea what the axles are but they have to be atleast 2-3 times heavier than stock. But this truck is in perfect condition.
So should I take it or no?

I miss my '92 FSB. As JeepinDan mentioned...the IFS is it's shortcoming. Most likely it's an IFS unless the PO did a SAS on it. Great trucks, very roomy. Check the bottom of the lift gate and the electric rear window if it goes up or down. That is prone to rusting and check inside the rear wheel wells too. Bronco bodies attract rust more by how they treated the metal. It might look good on the outside but look carefully underneath it. Stuff for it are fairly inexpensive as well and a lot more replacement parts out there.
Where is this located anyway?

Its a solid front axle conversion. Im going to go over there today to try to figure out the axle size and gearing. The body doesn't have rust anywhere which is really weird. The guy does take real good care of it but an older truck without rust is extremely hard to find.
Its down in vero beach, Florida. Boring town
