CAPABLE BRONCO II I thought I would send a pic of my Bronco II. Since I have owned her, she has gone through quite a few stages. Currently she sits on a full width Dana 44 up front and Ford 8.8 rear with 4.88 gears and Lock-Rights. Homebuilt 7? lift, 35? BFG M/Ts, transfer case doubler and all homemade bumpers and armor.
