1978 Bronco 4x4 "Ranger XLT" rare 4 speed model
This is a rare unique 1978 Bronco. It has the Top-of-the-line XLT trim with a factory 4 speed. It has a pretty straight body that is 100% rustfree from the west coast. It has a strong smooth 351, with a nice shifting 4 speed, and a smooth operating clutch. It is fully loaded for 1978: A/C, PS, PDB, factory high back buckets, factory roll bar, front and rear anti sway bars, etc. It also has a nice sounding AM/FM CD radio, and a receiver style hitch. It has factory Ford alloy wheels with nice 31x10.5x15 BFG's. You wont find a nicer running and driving second generation Bronco.
The interior is actually pretty nice as well. The front seats need to be recovered, and the dash pad has some cracks. I have a nice black dash I could sweeten the deal with. Other than that the interior is nice. It also has the fancy doom light with the reading lamps.
These Broncos were the last of the heavy duty Broncos. This one has the straight axle Dana 44 front, heavy duty NP205 transfer case, NP435 4 speed, and a 9" rear with 3.50 gears. The suspension is tight, the brakes stop nice, and it has nice sounding duals, but could use some new tail pipes.
Overall this is a clean, unmolested 4 speed Bronco XLT that is 100% rustfree.
