New Bronco dosen't stand up

I bought my '69 Bronco in 1981 when I graduated high school and it is still one of my regular drivers, I think I'll stick with it.

It really is cool that Abbey hangs out with you on the trails. She's a good daughter.

It's refreshing to see the younguns willing to get their hands dirty. Good on ya Abby and good on you dad.

Ahh yes.....new "offroad" vehicles....they're riddled with plastic, sometimes a sheet metal bumper,electronics and no real tow points. Ill stick with my 82 k5 thanks.

Had to comment...4 years ago my 1990 Bronco II was rear ended by a fully loaded semi truck doing 40mph into which pushed my poor Bronco into the concrete toll booth. My Bronco was totalled with frame bent in two places. However, that old Bronco and my guardian angel saved my life. I did look at new Bronco but not impressed by their frames....I bought a clean 2001 Xterra...much sturdier truck.

Just love how many people jumps in and gives directions....

We had one in the shop a few weeks back, impact on the RR tire, didn't even damage the rim. Bent the rear axle housing and the Panhard bar. You could SEE the camber on the RR wheel due to the bent axle housing, and the whole axle assembly was displaced an inch and a half to the left due to the pretzeled Panhard bar. Plus, the immense inertia of the huge beadlock wheel/tire combo hanging on the rear gate bent the body shell where the gate hinges attach. Offroad vehicle, eh? Nah, just a lookit-me!!! mall-crawler.

Hey Eric, Miss Abby seems to be right at home at the back of that wrecker. Won't be long before she is wheelin Mom and Dad's wreckers.

Eric you have a daughter like my oldest! She was always with me, on the motorcycle, in the shop, out on recovery adventures! She'll be 36 this year, and had worked as a millright for the last 12 years!

I trust a straight axle over this any day .

Say what you will about Gene, he DOES have a sense of humor. A Jeep owner, on a first name basis with his service manager at the dealer, ragging on a Bronco owner about reliability. Priceless!

My whole life I've wanted a 72 Bronco after having so much fun as a kid riding around with some long gone friends in one.

I'll never forget my neighbor's excitement when she proudly announced that her husband had just bought her a "$60,000" Bronco. PT Barnum was right.

9:25 She is turning that wheel like its gonna do something. That will be a clock spring on top of the broken steering shaft

Eric when you get Mara's tow truck finished Abby is going to want a off-road wrecker or buggy as always you guys are awesome

I wouldn't worry about the bumper too much, this will be a reoccurring issue..

You need to get Bronc busters tie rod trail fix

I've seen several videos showing the pitiful design of the Bronco's front suspension. There is even a trail repair kit I've seen on one for the tiny tie rods. If you have the money to buy this overpriced toy, spend enough to upgrade before you go off the pavement. You have a great apprentice working with you. Go Abby!

Eric you are good at what you do and make it look easy. I always enjoy your videos

Nice job getting the Bronco back to the campground. Hope she can get it fixed soon and can get back to the trails!
