My old Bronco past SMOG today in flying colors, with three hundred and fifty thousand miles and the heads have never been off. Just change the oil with now, 20/50 every three thousand:
Those Big Broncos are too big and heavy offroad. You need an Early Bronco! :)

Bill,
What would you say is it's main limitation off-road?

Front coil springs, just bounce and digs holes:
Yep, and according to that Cert. you've only got 46k miles on it. You're good to go another 30 yrs. :) Sorry to burst your bubble, but you're another 1000 lbs. over that figure. Finding an EB out in CA should be a breeze, prob is, they're all made of solid gold out there and a bit pricey.

Leaf spring conversion!

With mine, it was the poor brakes off road. Heated up too quickly.

You've been using all sorts of things for a cheap lift.
Booze and boys, drugs and drag-queens.
Would you /please/ have that stroke now and get it over with?
Your grandkids are getting impatient. Either stroke out or let one of them murder you in your sleep, either one would be the most patriotic thing you've ever done or ever could do.
OK, Floozie In Disguise (With Fat Wads), give me a cut-and-paste job; that will certainly teach me a lesson.
It done all the time:
Of course you know old speedometers flipped over at a hundred, that means mime has done that three times. Eddie Bauer? Even the rusted out six cylinder '76 back, sells for over three time their new price. God Bless America, Bill O|||||||O mailto: snipped-for-privacy@aol.com
No, EB = Early Bronco, not Eddie Bauer. Yep, they've always been hot out in CA. The one advantage you have is the rust is minimal. However, you still might save money travelling to New Mex or Arizona to grab one and still get a rust free EB. Yes, I was joking about the accuracy of the Cert. when I mentioned the mileage (and vehicle weight which is off by
1000 lbs).tw
