Title: original tow capacity Post by: backwoods boy on June 06, 2008, 04:35:52 PM im tryin to find the tow cap on an 86 bronco II w/ the 2.9 v6 and 5spd manual tranny
what i would like to pull is a 6X12 trailer w/ a brute force,a 400ex, and a CR125 any ideas on if that will work if not what about a 5x8 w/ just the 400ex and CR125 Title: Re: original tow capacity Post by: Chillinthemost on June 06, 2008, 04:46:09 PM 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.
