I was just wondering how many miles everyone has on their Bronco's. I have a 1978 and currently have 277,000 on it. I drive about 700 miles or so a week. With it soon approaching 300,000, I figured I would ask fellow Bronco owners their mileage.

On my '88 I am getting close to 180,000. Everything original except one water pump, a radiator, distributor, and the usual other disposables.

> 139,000+ on the original engine so far so good. might have to go with a high proformance when the time comes to replace. $-)

My 1993 XLT has 132k. And it's as pretty as the day it left the showroom!

Mine has to be one of the lower mileaged 78's around, with 44K original miles. It still runs and looks almost like new, except for the paint. After 27 years, the original paint is beginning to show it's age.......

My 78 has 40,000 original miles but was obviously abused badly because the front and rear mains are both leaking. oh well so I guess I could say it will shortly have o miles on the motor seeing I will be putting a brand new rebuild one in and the body has that much mileage on it (hard mileage) :wacko:

I've only got around 140,000 on mine but from the work I have had to do on it I would say they were hard miles with no maint. (leaf springs, full set of brakes, alt., brake lines, and soon body bushings). Hey by the way do you have to buy anything special when doing the body lift (only about 2" lift). It's an 89 BII XLT w/2.9L V6 any advise would be gratefull.
