Produktbeschreibung

In 1966, when Ford launched its first-generation Bronco, the other Detroit manufacturers didn't produce anything that was quite like it. The new little Bronco had utility and charm, and it was more refined than the Jeep of the era. The larger second-generation Bronco arrived in 1978 as a competitor to the Chevrolet Blazer. As with the Blazer, the Bronco shared several parts with its company's half-ton truck that was offered at the time, so the Bronco and Blazer lost some of their originality. However, the Bronco had a following, and various generations of full-size Broncos were manufactured following the development of the F-150 until 1996. At that time, market forces dictated a change to a vehicle that was more practical, such as the Ford Expedition, which replaced the Bronco.

After a 25-year absence in the marketplace, consumers decided that they were tired of large utilitarian SUVs and wanted a modern version of the original Bronco. In response to consumer demand and nostalgia, an entirely new generation of Bronco was launched in 2021. However, the planning process began several years earlier. Ford confirmed the return of the Bronco at the 2017 North American International Auto Show and spent the next four years building excitement for the vehicle's launch. Many Broncos were backordered, and wait times were long.

After the launch of the new (sixth-generation) Bronco, the enthusiast community and aftermarket manufacturers went into overdrive, which was encouraged by Ford. In New Ford Bronco: Performance Modifications, off-road veteran and expert Don Alexander assembled this guide, which includes options to make the new Bronco an even more capable vehicle. Covered are model histories, suspension, brakes, tires, electronics, tops, armor, recovery, drivelines, overlanding, and more. If you already have a Bronco that you want to modify or you are thinking about purchasing one in the future and want to know your options, this guide is vital.
