Done in the 1st 100k.
Front Driveshaft recall
Oil and filters every 3.5-5k miles, but 1st oil change at 1k miles.
Now I need to do a major service. Transmission, transfer case, differentials, cooling fluids, spark plugs and belts all need to be done.
I would say that the bulk of the miles are highway, but I take it off-road, and the last 6 months have been mostly city driving. I don't baby it, but I also don't abuse it either.
I have run several sets of tires, one set of General Grabber ATX's from a Black Diamond which I felt were a great compromise tire and I mostly wore them out at 30k. I have put at least 40k miles on the 2 sets of Bridgestone Duellers and they still have some mileage left in them. I have a set of Milestar Patagonia M/Ts (295/70R17) that I put about 20k on, and they still have some miles in them... They are my off-road backup tires now. Currently I am running Bfgoodrich KO2's in 315/70R17.
I am pretty sure that one of my Badlands shocks is toast (unless I find some other cause for the clunk in the rear end) at probably 60k miles. I have a set of Eibach Pro Truck 2.0 ready to install.
All in all, my Bronco has been relatively trouble free. It's time to rebuild the suspension and install some of the parts that I have been holding off on (M210 for example). I couldn't have asked for a better Bronco when it comes to the overall reliability and performance in its class.
Great photos, Derek! Here's to many more adventures in your Bronco.From this past week- NH

We love to see it! Hope you are loving it.Picked it up in December, Merry Christmas to me!
Still in a 2 dr however it is no longer a Bronco.
Just had to get back to a V8.
Since the only 2dr V8 SUV made is a Land Rover Defender 90 V8, that is what I bought.
Loved my time with my 2 dr Bronco, but all that road noise and lack of a V8 rumbling under the hood had me looking to move on.
Old Bronco Badlands SAS with Wild-trac's Hoss 3.0 shocks.
Sold it last month.
New Defender 90 V8
Now if Ford were to ever put a Coyote 5.0L in a 2dr Bronco, I am pretty sure I would have to have one. LOL .
