Bronco Repair

If you have owned a bronco then you then you definitely know ... things break. What I like most about my Bronco is that when the inevitible happens, generally I can fix it. As long as you have a basic set of tools, sockets, wrenches, screwdrivers, pliers, and a Haynes manual , you are pretty much good to go. The fact is, that with only a 7/16" and a 1/2" socket and wrench, you can just about dismantle a Bronco. I know that I used to feel uncomfortable working on my truck, always afraid that I would do more damage than good. Basically, there is very little you can hurt, unless you really just have no clue what you are doing. That is where these next links come in, these are my observations and hindsights on simple repairs that anyone should be able to do in an afternoon. The trick is to try to do the simple tasks and build up a little confidence to move on to the next level. Soon you will find yourself tearing into just about everything. Best part is, it can really be a money saver. It's really amazing how fast the $$$ can add up at $50 per hour for a good mechanic, heck even a bad mechanic. So get out there and do it yourself, save yourself some money buy yourself a new Bronco toy with the money you saved.
