Bronco 11 rearend

I have read about the popular 66-77 Ford Bronco rear ends. However, I can get a free 1988 Bronco 11 rear end. Should I take it? Value? Plus or minus for a future project?

Only for a trailer. You'd be better off with an 8.8 from an explorer.

 

Not worth much,I wouldn't use it. HRP

 

It's a 7.5. A mild 302 would kill it.

 

Bronco II is a Bronco based on the Ford Ranger platform. Small.

 

It is the weak 7.5 as Travis said. Not worth using, get an 8.8 out of Explorer, it will hold up to power of V8 a lot longer and better choice of ratios.

 

Thanks guys for the good advice. Will not waste my time.

What's a Bronco Eleven?

 

The last years (1990-91 or there abouts used the 8.8 rear, similar to the Exporer which superceded it.

Most have the 7.5, though.

 

All Bronco II’s came with a special version of the 7.5” rear, which has a capacity of 2640lbs. Other Ford 7.5” axle housings will NOT work in place of the BII unit; however, the rings and pinions from any 7.5 can be swapped into it.
There were no Bronco II's with the 8.8
