I recently sold my 95 Bronco, but I'll always love them
I'm going with a 95 7.3 powerstroke! I plan on putting heavier duty front coil springs in and new blaljoints etc. For now, I'm keeping my stock axles until I can manage to save up for a beefier set with the same gear ratio (and pay to have someone install the front axle because I don't have a good enough welder for that work.)

I have a thread starter here https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...esel-time.html in the Bronco section! I'm at the cleaning point now for the engine because I just pulled it. I have to wait for some funds to start replacing seals/paint and then install. I think I'm going to paint my Bronco black with red while it's engine is out too.

That's too bad you sold your Bronco! Everyone I talked to that had one always tells me they miss it, I'm sure you'll be able to buy another one eventually ! I've had mine for close to 10 years now and I don't plan on getting rid of it pretty much ever.

Awesome. I've had both 7.3's, intercooled, and non intercooled. That will be a beast in the Bronco! I subscribed to your thread. Enjoy the build!
