Bronco II Stuck

so im a newbie to this site but just thought i'd share this:

it rained a day ago so me and a few of my friends went to see how good his Bronco II would do at the local flood control, the rest as follows:

we though it was gonna be pretty tough to pull him out considering there was about 20 feet of water until you met solid ground and how bad he was leaning but in all took about ten min for my friends 1500 and a couple "recovery straps" to get that ol bronco outta there

I had an 86 B-2 on 33x13.50-r15 Baja Claws, 6" skyjacker lift, spooled 8.8" 28 spline rear and an '87 Mustang GT drivetrain. My uncle wrecked his Mustang, so I snagged up his 5.0L h.o. and t-5 in a heartbeat.

That little truck pissed off people in Wranglers and CJ's.

Haha best thing was the people that got all pissy because it went though stuff they had to winch or get pulled out of in they're 20k+ rig. Honestly the BII is a formidable contender to a equally equiped sami! I want my BII back I soldit and have yet to get the money... hmmmm intresting way of buying something isnt it...

I traded my B2 with my brother... he needed a 4 seater and I needed a sports car. He ended up rolling the Bronco and totaling it... I miss that thing. The turning radius on a 2004+ Super Cab is a joke.

Yep i needed money so I sold mine to a guy and wrote out a "contact" got it notorized and made it so he could pay me 4 payments of 200... i saw 200 of that and now i cant get a hold of the guy! When i have the time ill be stoping by his house with the "proper authorities"

He also tried to sell it on craigslist without the title! I really need to get it back if its even still there it might have gotten parted out and scrapped off! And if so someone will be going to jail!

Same **** happened to me. My 02 broke down in CO, timing chain....anyways, I just sold it to a salvage yard guy there in Denver, he sent me a check for 100 and canceled payment. Now we got the cops to give him a visit. They tell him to send it,and he still doesnt. So today I gotta call the police there and tell um it never came. Anyone in denver wanna pay this guy a visit. Or see if my truck is still there?
