BroncoII4x4.com

This is the first bronco Ive owned. I just got a 89 xlt with a 2.9 and a 5 speed. the push button 4x4 doesnt work, the buttons light up but the ornge light never comes on i would like to fix it just dont know where to start any ideas? also it runs great but every now and then when u hit the gas about half 3/4 it chugs around 2500rpms just wounderin if anyone has had that issue also n how u fixed it. Last I have a noise in the trans it shifts and drives perfect but when u let the clutch out even stoped it sounds like theres a bad bearing?

any help would be great thanks

I'm new to B2's so can't help you. Just wanted to welcome you.

I've got a 89 bii xlt with a 2.9 and a 5 speed. but I have a manual 4x4 floor shifter not buttons. Just thought it was odd that they would make both.

I bought a man shift 4x4 so that parts solved as soon as I can find a bootknob n handle any ideas

check the wiring connections by the tranfer case under b2 disengauge the plug check for corrosion that where my problem was
also look for broken wires same area
