I dont know the tow capacity of a Bronco 2 but it should have no trouble with that little bit of weight. You are only talking less than 2000lbs. total.

my sisters got real hot last time we went riding and blew the seal between it and the engine. i guess fords build up pressure when they get real hot. the bronco he is lookin at is a 5-speed though.
