Anyone have a Ford bronco 2 on here? i see lots of jeeps, suzu, and such, just wondering if there is any B2's, and if so what some good, cheap trail rig set ups to make by B2 even tougher.

If I'm not mistaken, the Baby Bronco is on a Ranger platform so if you search upgrades for a Ranger, they should apply to you.

That's my understanding as well, so grabbing the D35 front and 8.8 rear out of an Exploder would be a good bolt in upgrade on the axle front.

Good luck and it will be nice to see something different on the trails.

I have been running Rangers for years now and have an Explore as a plow truck. The twin traction beam system does create some chalanges to a biuld up, but if you do your home work it is posable to have a grate trail rig. Oh yeah they turn like a forklift. serch "The Rananger Station".
if you need parts contact me

yes, definatly am doing the dana 35 swap, i currrently have the 373 but want 410 for the capabilities, and yes definatly is good to see different on the trails. and a limited slip 8.8 for the rear is the first things i plan on, possible a 4" suspension after, thanks for the heads up and good ideas guys

Ran a Ranger for years and then swapped the drivetrain and axles into a Bronco II.

SAS is a must for any real offroading. Since Rangers/Bronco II's have the same frame width as the 66-77 Broncos, a D44 & 9" combo works real well.
Watch the large, curved on top, side windows when crawling betwen trees. Sounds like a gun going off when they break. A rub-rail is essential.

there is also pleny of room for a V8 and larger trans.
