How did you get the back end so high off the ground attach your cable to a nearby tree branch?

We had to pull the back end put so the front end would slide in in thus putting back end up higher we were trying to with it without rolling it and it was the only possible wayy..

The damage wasnt too bad front d shaft and front bumper that was it?

Haha.. man I baby my Bronco too much. I would be pretty depressed if I got mine in that situation, especially if I damaged anything. I bet, despite the damages and the waiting to get it out, it was pretty fun though.

well he basically bought the bronco as a work/toy...so he wasnt too worried about anything...someone was actually scrapping it at the junkyard he works at so he saved it, i bet it was fun tho too, i wasnt there when it happen i just had to come to the rescue

I would also hate to damage anything but doing it might be fun. IT would be even funner if i had full 4wd to save myself...

Oh well that's not bad at all. 50 bucks for the drive shaft and bumper is definitely pretty good. I just got the two rear interior panels with the cup holders and ash trays, a headliner with the light, and a locking glove-box for $80 at a salvage yard. I had to paint the panels and glove-box and I'm redoing the headliner now but overall, after paint and stuff it came to about 120 for all that stuff.

I would like to find a Bronco someone is parting out.. but I would feel bad too because that means one less Bronco on the road!

Looking for parts at junk yards is fun, its like a treasure hunt. But it gets really disappointing if you don't find anything you are looking for... I'll probably be looking for some seats for months before I find something semi-decent. I think I'm just going to have to get some torn up bucket seats (if I find them) and have them reupholstered. That's going to like $600 altogether...... Then I'll still need the center console! Oh well I'll eventually get it. I never thought I'd save up enough for my full exhaust but I have it now so nothing's impossible!
