Does anyone here in here have a Jeep, FJ oldschool, Early Bronco?

Man I wish I still had mine. If you have/had one, what modifications did you have done?

 

[lightpants]

SCOUT

Nothing done to it, it already is what a jeep is like after all their modifications are finished!

Our old TJ

4"SL + 1"BL + 1"MM
35" tires
8.8 rear axle w/LSD
Lots of body damage

I miss it.

1971 Jeepster Commando

It's running on 33's w/ a 3" Body and 3" Shackle kit (soon to be replaced with lift springs)

It has a Chevy 305 under the hood. I am currently in the process of replacing the floor pans (which are almost rusted through) and the brake system. Future plans are a roll cage, and front axle upgrade.

I miss my Wrangler soooooo much .

Used to have a '81 CJ

Other than a custom rear bumper, 31x11.50 MT's, and a sound system not much. Even with that gutless 151 cu/in 4cyl it was a great off-road machine.

I had an 85 Bronco 2 that my Dad bought new in 85. riding that thing would cause spinal cord damage it was such a rough ride, but I miss her bad for some reason. My brother has her now.

I currently drive a 97' 4runner

that's a nice looking scout. i can't tell from the picture, but is there any rust? i always heard stories about how bad scouts would rust out. i've always wanted one too.

FJ?!?!?
WTF?
Have they gone through the entire alphabet or what?

If I wanted a mid 90's model Cherokee with just the basic, factory features (no Dana 60's or anything extreme) what would it be called?

An FJ is a Toyota.

Cherokees are XJs, unless you mean the old full sized Cherokees, made in the 70s, those are SJs, and are based on the Wagoneer. The XJ was 1984-2001.

 

[shortylickens]

OK, cool.

I've been looking at Pirate4x4.com and a lot of guys are selling XJ's for cheap. Some of them are even Rubicon capable but thats way more than I need.
I just want something reliable and easy to fix up.

96 Eddie Bauer Bronco

408ci tuned for pulling boats ~300hp/450tq (forgot the exact dyno)

Engine other side

Last year of the Bronco...my dad's vehicle we did together. Just got done putting in a MP3 player and the top Pioneer Coax's front and rear. Sounds good on the inside now too .

 

[iamwiz82]

I think people are confusing Early Broncos from regular Broncos and ::shudder:: Bronco IIs. Completely different beasts.

Sweet, my old neighbor had one.

 

[dug777]

Nearly bought my gf's old man's SWB FJ a few years ago.

I'm glad i didn't, something always needs fixing on it and it hates starting in the damp

It will go anywhere tho, he still regularly uses it for towing and beach fishing, biggest roo bar on the front too

EDIT: the original diesel block has been replaced by a petrol 4L inline 6 as well, which is a bit of a turnoff for me...

 

[michaels]

Yeah Early Bronco's>all others.

Very nice Bronco.

While growing up my parents had 1986, 1990, 1993, and 1995 Broncos. My dad held onto the 95' for a while as an extra car because it was just that damn great.

We have also had 2 jeeps, a 89 Wrangler which we sold, and our current 99 Wrangler w/31 inch tires (no lift).

MY first car was also a beast of an SUV, a 1989 Dodge Ramcharger. I sold that last year and now have a 1999 Expedition.

I had a 99 exp..talking about gas hog! But nice and plenty of power.
