I am reluctantly selling my 1990 Ford Bronco II, 4x4.  2.9 liter, v6 engine. The truck starts right up, and sounds good. There is almost none of the common lifter "tick" that these 2.9's are infamous for. This nice looking truck has 6 inches of body lift (and some suspension lift too) and oversized (brand new) tires (31.5 inch).  It's the 5 speed manual transmission and has manual shift 4x4 and manual locking hubs. Trust me, the electronic hubs and shifters are NOT worth the pain. Keep it simple...and always dependable!  I put a new clutch in it right after I bought it (about 3-4 years ago) and new oversized shock absorbers, front and rear.  The paint is in pretty good shape. There is some fading. Numerous chips and dings here and there. Very minimal body rust. One spot of rust on a rear fender can be seen (see pic).  There are a couple of indentions on the upper part of the left front fender. These would probably pop right out if you have one of those suction tools. The frame and underbody is in good condition and has nothing but surface rust. This has not been driven much on salted roads.

The Interior is not in great condition. But is okay. The front seats need replacing. The passenger seat is not too bad, but drivers' seat is very worn, mostly from climbing up and down into the lifted cab..  Carpet is aged and stained. Headliner is good. Back seats are very nice. Dash has some cracking. 

Here are some things that I know DO NOT WORK:

AC not working.

No stereo. There are some speakers present. Just no radio.

Passenger-side door is not opening. And the electric window and lock on that side is not working.

Please understand that this is a very highly lifted truck. That means that this is not a vehicle for your 16 year old daughter or your crazy teenaged son.  They will roll it over.  This is a vehicle made for looking cool or for someone who wants to do 4x4 jeep trails.  It is not a drag racer. The rear end is not stock, and seems to be pretty high speed. This means that the initial take off of this truck is sluggish. The small 2.9 liter doesn't jump out of the gates as it pushes these BIG tires and all the body lift. It cruises really comfortably at 45 to 55 mph. But I wouldn't drive it long distances, as it's simply not safe at high speeds. It is top heavy.  When using the 4 wheel drive in low range, this truck creeps along and will pull just about anything in the world up a mountain. It's a great trail rig. It is a fun to drive and fun to look at truck.  I hate to let it go.

Note about the Vehicle History Report Summary: the sole discrepancy here is the previous owner had to have a new title printed by DMV due to losing the old one. He didn't have the mileage of the vehicle with him, so he simply put down 100,000. But the actual mileage was somewhere between 60,000 to 70,000 on the odometer. The reason the truck has been driven so few miles in the last number of years is because IT IS A LIFTED TRUCK. You don't take these on vacation drives across the USA.  There's nothing I can do the clear this title issue up, due the previous bonehead owner!  But look at the rest of the report and you can see there has never been an accident.  Hope this explains the issue.

Since it is 23 years old, the truck is sold "as-is" and where it is.  There is no warranty expressed or implied. I have done my best to accurately describe the vehicle. a $300 deposit will be required within 24 hours of auction end. If the deposit is not received in that time period, I will automatically relist the item.  Don't bid unless you plan on buying the truck.  There's not that many of these trucks left, so let the people who know what they're doing have them. Okay?!!  The truck is for sale locally for $2000.  People just started looking at it today (March 16). I reserve the right to end the auction early if I sell it locally (regardless of bidding history on the eBay auction.)

Please read this listing carefully and look at all the pictures. If you still have questions, then fire away. I'll do my best to answer in a timely fashion.

Ford settles class action suit over defective Navistar diesel engines

Fri, 25 Oct 2013

The 2003 Ford F-Series Super Duty (shown above) introduced the 6.0-liter Power Stroke diesel supplied by Navistar, and while that is an engine Ford would love to forget, it's now one step closer to putting that particular problem behind it. Automotive News is reporting that Ford has settled a class-action lawsuit brought on by problems with this engine that started right out of the gate and ultimately broke up the 30-year relationship between Ford and Navistar.
Owners and lessees of 2003-2007 Super Duty trucks and E-Series vans equipped with the 6.0-liter Power Stroke are eligible for deductible reimbursements of between $50 and $200 from the original five-year/100,000-mile engine warranty, while Ford is paying out as much as $825 for out-of-warranty engine repairs. These repairs may include the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler, EGR valve, oil cooler, fuel injectors and turbocharger, but are only covered if the components failed before six years or 135,000 miles.
In total, Ford has agreed to pay about 50 percent of the value of the repairs and deductibles paid by its customers who submit a claim before the end of this year, and $150,000 is going to the 16 named plaintiffs in the case; Navistar was not included in the lawsuit.

Ford family keeps special voting rights

Fri, 10 May 2013

Ford Motor Company has a dual-class stock structure of Class A and Class B shares. The roughly three billion Class A shares are for the general public like you and me, while the roughly 71 million Class B shares are all owned by the Ford family. Each Class A share gets the shareholder one vote, each Class B share is worth 16 votes, the result being that Common Stock holders control about 60 percent of the company while the Ford family controls 40 percent even though it holds far fewer shares. The only way that could ever change would be if the Fords sell their Class B shares, but even so, Class B shares revert to Class A when sold outside the family, so they'd have to sell a whole bunch of them.
A contingent of Class A shareholders think the dual-class system is unfair, and for the past few years a vote's been held during the annual shareholders meeting to end it. It has failed every time, as it just did again during the meeting held this week. A smidge over 33 percent voted to end the dual system, outvoted by the 67 percent who are happy with the way Ford is going - unsurprising in view of a corporate turnaround that will be part of business-class curricula for years to come.
On the sidelines, Ford elected Ellen R. Marram to the post of independent director, the first woman to hold the job. The former Tropicana CEO and 20-year Ford board member replaces retiring board member Irvine Hockaday who helped bring Alan Mulally to the CEO position.

NHTSA investigating Ford Fiesta for faulty door latches

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary investigation on the 2011-2013 Ford Fiesta because the regulator has received 61 complaints from drivers, including one claim of an injury, about the doors on the subcompacts failing to latch and sometimes even flying open while driving. NHTSA has estimated that the problem could affect as many as 205,000 vehicles.
NHTSA is still gathering further data about the problem, but looking at the complaints so far, both front and rear doors appear to be potentially involved with the alleged failures. Among the reports, there are 12 claiming that the door opened while driving. Several also indicate the "Door Ajar" warning illuminating during this problem. The one purported injury happened when someone attempted to shut the door, and it bounced back.
Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker told Autoblog via email, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the report from NHTSA.
