Current Issues:

Power door locks cycle continuously ($25/pair actuators, $25/each switches)
Temporary fix has been to pull the fuse
Haven’t worked properly in like two years

ABS light is on
Wheel speed sensor ($30-$40 for a pair)
Light has been on for over a year now

Rear window motor recently died ($40-$60 for a replacement)
Quit working on Valentine’s Day 2024
Rear defrost worked when I got the truck, but quit in 2020

When in 2WD, tries to engage in 4×4 on its own
Usually happens once or twice a year
Driving in 4×4 for a little bit usually fixes the issue

Sometimes surges at idle with defrost on
Couple links are online that may be of help

Front end recently started making noise again, but only occasionally
Currently looking into the issue

Other “stuff”

Dashboard is cracked, and there has never been a dash bezel
Purchased this way, never could find a bezel

Windshield wipers are new, but the passenger side one doesn’t like to stay on arm
Been a problem all five years I’ve owned the truck
Doesn’t matter the brand of wiper

Exhaust stops after the muffler
Been that way since I bought it

Interior floor is fairly dirty, seats are in pretty good shape for being 30 years old
Two toddlers, a dog, and a career in landscaping will do that

Stereo is okay, not great
Unit currently installed came with the truck

Has a trailer hitch and wiring for trailer lights
Wiring does not work, will not light up trailer lights

Sometimes starts rough when humid or rains a lot
Always starts, sometimes rough, sometimes fine

Everything else

Currently drives 50+ miles per day five days a week
250-300 miles per week (depending on errands and all that)

Body for a ‘94 truck from Michigan is pretty good
Look at the pictures for condition
LR fender is the worst, RR fender has the damage that caused the Salvage Title
I do have a replacement RR fender that will be included

Truck is 30 years old, has quirks and issues
Tried to mention all of them, I’m sure I forgot something

Gets thumbs-up wherever you go
Everyone seems to have their own story about a Bronco from their past

Tried to be fair on pricing, but offers will be considered. Facebook Marketplace has Broncos for $13k in great shape, $2,500 for one that doesn’t run. If seriously interested, we can talk money

Plates expire soon, I’d like to move it before then. Sold as-is, I call it a “working project”
