1/14/09 birthdaywheeling
Me and wes took his jeep out on my birthday. It was a blast to wheel it. The thing is really impressive and fun to drive. Only got stuck once where i had to push by hand and got it off!

Re: Willys Pickup and the death of the bronco II
I can try but my fence is right there on both sides. I will try to push it out after i get the bed mounted in. The wheel base is 117" on the truck and that was the stock wheelbase for the truck i just pushed the body back alot.

Re: Willys Pickup and the death of the bronco II
I got the bed on and cut 14 inches out of it. Now i just need to mount it which im not looking forward to doing. I slacked off and worked on my buddy's jeep today instead so we can go wheeling this week in it. But its coming along.

Re: Synthetic Motor Oil?
ran synthetic blend in my toyta corolla and lost millage, i run royal perple in my dodge magnum and it helped but not much just make for longer times between oil changes and i put 25k each year so that helps. In a bronco II i wouldnt waste the money. I never run it except for high travel milage rigs.

most likely trans if it pops out of gear. the trans are weak on these things and t cases are pretty strong. I would chack your oil levels in both first
