Also, if your tires are bigger than stock = gutless.

I was thinking it was a fuel problem also. The in-tank pump is the one I changed, I didnt realize there was another pump. Where is the second pump? its not between the tank and filter. Also, someone has messed around with it before, the lines were the filter is are hacked up. Thanks

I originally put this in the bronco2 section, but i think there is a little more traffic here. 89 bronco 2, auto trans, manual t case I just got an 89 b2 thats obviously been neglected. New fuel pump, filter, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, set timing. It starts and runs ok, bit of a miss at...

Intake is clean, had it off several times. If I unplug the IAC the engine will almost stall out until it catches its breath. If I unplug the coolant sensor idle changes, so that is at least doing something. (not sure if its right or wrong though) I only checked a couple plugs. I think I...

Nope. I thought i would have time to do that, but I was wrong. Just thought you could build it while you continued to drive yours.

Hey, I have a 89 I picked up a month ago not running for $750. I put a fuel pump in it and changed the oil. Its a little rough around the edges, but I ran it around the back 40 a couple times. $900 just above Columbia,SC

Wow, I just read that whole thing and you are thinking way to much into this. If it were me I would go with d35, 8.8, 5.13 gears, 35" tires, lockers front and rear add some skid plates and rock sliders and peoples jaw will drop as you climb almost anything at Gulches and have it all done in a...

4x4junkie is right on about the 5.13s and 2.9 if your gonna run 35s. It will even keep your speedo accurate.

I dont know about the lmc hanger, because the one I got from ford for the ranger had different spacing on the bolt holes. I did like bobbywalter said and drilled them out. worked great.

Thanks. Yeah this thing is a pos that is just gonna be driven around in the woods, so no need for perfection.

Will the rear spring hangers from the 90 to 04 rangers work for a 89 bronco2? The ford parts man told me the rear hangers for the B2 are obsolete and not available, he said he has no dimensions so I cant measure to see if it will fit. Thanks.

They have solenoids in the tranny that control O/D and TTC lock up. They can go bad and cause O/D and/or TCC lock up not to work. I would check them first, its alot cheaper than a rebuild.
