This is my 1986 Ford Bronco II Eddie Bauer Edition. Has Automatic hubs and they still work fine. I have had this truck since December of 08 and i finanlly got it done and now i am able to drive it. I had to replace the Automatic Transmission. The cool thing about how i got this truck was I traded a guy labor to fix his car and then he gave me the truck.

       So i saw an AD on craiglist for the Bronco II and the picture he had of it was one he found on the internet. which he did not tell me when i called him. He wanted $400 dollars for the truck since the transmission was BAD. Then at the bottom he said that he would also trade it for fixing his car. The car was a 1998 BMW 318i and he wanted the waterpump replaced. So i found a water pump that was made in germany and it was $65. so i am thinking holy crap i can get this truck for nothing. Then i bought coolant and some high heat silacone gasket maker. Which saved me. We got there we took it off after an hour of trying to get the stupid fan off. then finanlly it was time to put the new one on. so I am tightening the Bolts and they werent that big. then i was started worrying about one of them i was tightening. IT NEVER GOT TIGHT IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN. FREAKIN ALUMINUM BLOCK!!!!!!!

Thankgoodness we had the gasket maker. We put a whole bunch on that bolt and put it back in. We finished and my frind said to me that it would hold fluid but he didnt think it would when it warmed up. so we are freakin worried about what was gonna happen. we did all this work at the guys house and he was not home when we did this. about an hour or two he rode up on his bike and he was pouring out sweat. then he gave me the keys and i started it up. We didnt like it because he said well lets just let it warm up and see what happens. all of us looked at each other. NOTHING HAPPENED. As soon as i could i left with the keys and the title to my truck. Then about two weeks later I went and picked it up with a U-Haul and took it Home.

Here it is the first day

Here are some pics of the tranny swap from a 2.9 to a 4.0 A4LD. tranny came out of a 93 ranger.

I fananly got it done and it runs good with the rebuilt engine the previous owner paid $1800 dollars to have done. Runs really good.
