Hi there from north central Florida

FL86BRONCO
Hey. Just wanted to introduce myself, just bought myself a bronco yesterday and, it may be a fixer but I'm so proud and excited. Can not wait to start fixing it up here and there. We are in north central Florida and bought an 86 bronco. Not sure what model it is or anything. It's a 4 speed manual with 4x4 with 351w, someone butchered a lot of stuff but the body is pretty straight, picked her up for 2500 and made it the 2.5 hour drive home. Not much works electrically but that's for another post. Nice to meet you all and look forward to learning a lot, haven't done the forum thing since I was a Honda kid.

It does look good.  
Hopefully you can get the wiring sorted out and everything back functional.

Yes, welcome!  Glad you joined.

Where in "north central Florida"?  I ask because we have a map (Bullnose Forum/Member's Map in the menu) and could add you if we had a city or zip.

Nice looking Bronco.  If you drove it that far home there must not be a lot of serious things wrong with it.  I'll bet you can put it right.

Wanted to ask real quick since there is a picture here already. What would you guys guess the lift is on this thing? Those are 35s on it

I'll guess that it is a 4" lift.  But with 35's it might be a 6".
