Description:
I am selling my 1996 Ford Bronco XLT. This is a clean and beautiful Bronco that has been garage kept and under total care. A LOT of work has gone into this truck less than 5k miles ago. I completely rebuilt the engine, upgraded the suspension and lifted the truck 2.5". A new sound system was installed as well as many other upgrades to make this a dependable truck. I have owned the car for five years and driven it about 1k miles a year. It was always a Sunday diver for me. It has been tastefully modified and is a head turner. Here is the breakdown of work done.

- New Heavy Duty inner and outer tie rods

Engine:

o Camshaft
o Rockers, lifters, pushrods, plugs, gaskets

Exhaust System: Truck sounds great!

Miscellaneous:
- New Plugs, MSD distribution cap/rotor kit, 9mm ignition wire set, MSD street fire coil

- Warn manual Hub Conversion kit (I just liked these instead of dealing with notoriously bad solenoid issues on stock push button)
- LED fog lights
- Hefty Fabworks Rock sliders
- Upgraded Alpine stereo with easily removeable subwoofer. (2k upgrade)
Residuals from the switch to the manual transmission include a cruise control that does not work, and I added an external oil pressure gauge. I have meticulously maintained this vehicle and it has always been garage kept. It is a WEST COAST survivor that has had little to no east coast salt exposure. I never drove it in the winter. That said, it is 25 years old, I have done little besides touch up paint to correct minor cosmetic or natural wear on the vehicle. I have paperwork of all work done as well as maintenance records. Odometer shows 154k+ miles.
This car has been spotted all over the internet with my New Jersey “NOT OJ” plates. Please message me if you have further questions. Clean NJ title in hand.
