How common was the rear wiper and washer option for the Bronco 2's? Seems I find them without either most often, is that usually the case? Now that mine is working I'm happy but during the winter with all the road spray that back window was useless most of the time so having a working wiper/washer and defroster back there is a nice bonus now.
Its been about 3 years now that I have owned this Bronco 2 and really enjoy it, even through the tough times with it. Right after purchase in 2016 it went straight to AAMCO for a transmission rebuild, late 2018 it got a new (rebuilt) engine. Runs and drives great now, like stepping into a brand new Bronco 2, now I've got to come up with the money for paint LOL, if it weren't for the paint and worn interior it would be awesome, even at that its very enjoyable to drive and with what has been done mechanically it should be good for another 30+ years since I actually properly maintain my vehicles unlike the previous owner of this one .
Picked up a factory Class II Receiver hitch for it at the pick a part a few months ago for $20 just got it installed, now trying to track down trailer wiring schematics to get the wiring for the trailer plug installed properly since as usual the previous owner just hacked stuff and it no longer functions.
Installed fog lights last month and earlier this year found a Bronco 2 spare tire cover.
This will remain as close to stock as possible, but looking at it and tire options are leading me to possibly needing larger tires just to get some better all terrain tires as I'm severely limited with the stock 205/75R15's, so thinking I need to step up to 235's in order to have options. Only thing I'm worried about is possible rubbing with the 235's? Stock no lift.
