Owner: 74Bronco2
From: Dayton, Washington
Vehicle: 1989 Ford Bronco II
Specifications: This Bronco II has been upgraded to a 4.0L V-6 with a 5-speed manual transmission and a dual transfer case (doubler). The power is sent to Dana 44 & Ford 9-inch axles with Superior axles and 5:13 Gears. Power is delivered to the dirt by 39-inch Boggers on 15×14 wheels. They’re covered by Bushwacker fender flares designed for a fullsize Bronco. The roof was chopped and a custom top with a tube frame was added to keep the foul weather out. Stainless tube bumpers were built.

Doubler transfer case (Two transfer cases mated together to reduce the gearing for a better crawl ratio)
