Default Bronco II - Looking for input.

I picked up a 1990 Bronco II with about 151k on it a few months ago.

Everything works, starts right up, runs strong, 4x4 works. Manual trans doesn't feel too bad.

It's got a few electrical quirks, which I think is mostly from previous owners installed, and removing stereos and accessories, this assumption is based on the fact that I find random wires all ove the place that don't really lead to anything.

Valve cover gaskets need replacing as oil is seeping out while running. I haven't noticed a drop in oil pressure, but I'm not sure I trust that gauge.

Suspension is lifted about 3" although it's a "budget" lift, which I plan on replacing with a James Duff kit. It's sitting on 15s with 33" rubber, which is right where I want it. Once a quality suspension goes on, I'll be much happier.

Interior is in need of some attention. Headliner is trashed, carpet is trashed, just needs a total renovation.



That being said, I was wondering if anyone has had experience with, or knows someone that has a James Duff kit on a Bronco II. I'd really like to see it before I buy, but that probably won't stop me.
