For sale is my 1996 Bronco Eddie Bauer. This truck is a Washington State survivor. It is as rust free as any Bronco I’ve ever seen or owned. The original paint shines, and there are few blemishes on the body. This Bronco has my favorite color, trim scheme with a two tone Oxford White body with Light Saddle tone, and a tan leather interior. It has been well maintained its entire life. It has less than 1000 miles since the last engine oil/transfer case oil/transmission oil/differential oil change. It most recently has had the entire suspension system replaced. No expenses were spared. A Skyjacker 4” lift was installed, with Skyjacker SoftRide springs, along with Bilstein 5100 shocks on each corner. Tuff Country extended radius arms were also installed at the same time. Ball joints, tie rod ends, and drag links were also replaced along with the steering gear box, which was upgraded with a RedHead steering gear. It was then professionally aligned at a local 4x4 shop. The steering is tight, and tracks straight down the road, as if the truck was brand new. It has none of the steering wheel ‘wander’ that this generation of Ford trucks was notorious for. The rear was lifted 4" with Jeff's Bronco Graveyard Shackle flip kits. These are very sturdy and robust shackle mounts; much stronger than the stock mounts. After the lift was installed, the Ford PSOM calibration was performed to ensure accurate shifting and speedometer operation. The interior is very clean, and the front seats have been professionally recovered with color matching leather. While the seats were out at the restoration shop, the entire interior was removed and cleaned. Dyna Mat has been installed throughout the entire truck, along with a Kicker stereo system professionally wired and an amp installed in the center console. No factory wiring was disturbed during the install. The stereo sounds good, and with the Dyna Mat installed, it’s very quiet inside the cab. It does not sound like a creaking, rattling, 22 year old truck driving down the road. After the lift was installed, I fitted the truck with Ultra Type 50 15” wheels and 33x12.50 Falken Wildpeak tires, with a matching spare on the tire rack. The wheels and tires have less than 500 miles on them. I have installed new headlights and taillights, and both are bright and clear, and have none of the fog as the previous ones did. All in all, this truck is an 9/10 daily driver. It has a straight, rust free body and is mechanically sound. The rear top has never been off, and the top does not leak. I would not hesitate to drive this rig across the country. I love Broncos, and the previous owner did as well. Due to my commitments to the military and looking at yet another 9-12 month deployment, I have decided to part ways with it and find an owner who loves these trucks as much as I do. I just hate the thought of having the truck sit for another year while I am gone. Once I leave the Army, and have a little more stability, I’ll probably try to contact the new owner and try to buy it back! I also have this truck listed for sale locally, as well as on Facebook Marketplace. I leave for Afghanistan in January, so I must have it sold by then.
