1992-1996 Bronco Common Problems & Solutions

Whether you already own an OBS Bronco or are seeking to buy one, there are a few common problems that might occur. Like any vehicle out there, parts can eventually wear out and cause problems. We'll cover some of the most frequent problems that you can run into with your OBS Bronco, along with helpful solutions and fixes to get you back on the road!

Worn Down Steering Wheel

• One of the most overlooked parts of your OBS Truck that sees more use than any other part of the truck is the steering wheel. Daily driving takes its toll on your steering wheel. You'll see the grain on the leather turn smooth, shiny, and eventually crack. We are proud to offer an excellent solution for this with the SVE Factory Style Steering Wheel! This SVE steering wheel has a factory-inspired design with perforated leather throughout and a black finish to match your interior.

Cracked Heater Hoses

• From the factory, the Broncos were equipped with a very intricate heater hose setup. Over time, these components begin to deteriorate, leak, or become clogged. In order to restore proper coolant flow to your heater core while retaining a factory appearance, LMR went above and beyond to provide a complete solution-based Factory Style Heater Hose Kit for Bronco enthusiasts.

Rusted Out Tailgate

• Over time, the factory tailgate can become rusted or damaged. This is a pretty common issue and even found in Bronco’s from southern areas. Fortunately, LMR has created a kit that allows you to replace the tailgate and its components while restoring your exterior appearance at the same time! Our Complete Tailgate Kit is compiled of the highest quality components to restore your tailgate properly.

Broken Dash Components

• The HVAC control in 1992-1996 Ford Bronco's are notorious for breaking at critical mounting points. This can leave your HVAC controls dangling or loose, causing a rattle when driving. Being Bronco enthusiasts, we here at LMR.com have developed a solution, the 1992-1996 Ford OBS Bronco & Truck HVAC control repair bracket.

• Over the years, sun damage can cause the dashboard in your Bronco to become brittle and eventually crack. The bezel from the factory is a plastic construction. The replacement dash panel we offer is a Ford OE part which has the A/C vents pre-installed, has cutouts for the headlight switch, rear window switch, and accepts your factory trim. Ford's black finish completes this dash panel for a factory-correct restoration!

Damaged Door Panels & Window Switches

• At LMR we offer an all-in-one solution, 92-96 Door Panel Reinforcement Brackets, that fixes the broken door panel issue commonly found on these OBS trucks. The plastic at the top of the panel becomes brittle, which cracks, leaving your inner door belt weatherstrip nothing to attach to. LMR's creative thinking brings you these brackets that reinforce this section of the panel. Each pre-formed bracket matches the contour of your door panel for a stress-free installation. This kit extends the life of your door panels without breaking the bank!

•  The window switch bezels that retain the window switches, door locks, and mirror switch on your 1992-1996 Bronco become cracked and broken over years of use. Fortunately, we offer a complete window switch and bezel kit for your 1992-1996 Bronco!

Leaking Door Weatherstrip

• When these door seals degrade throughout the years, they allow wind noise into your OBS truck as well as letting water into the cab that can cause mold, mildew, or in the worst case, rust. In order to retain the heat and A/C inside the cabin as well as keep water and exterior elements out, we offer a Door Weatherstrip Kit that comes with everything you will need to renew the seal on the front doors of your Bronco, including the door-to-body weatherstrips, door belts, vent seals, and run channels.

Fuel Guage/Level Sender Not Working

• Another common issue these OBS Bronco’s see are faulty fuel level gauges caused by broken fuel level sending units. To fix this problem, we offer a Factory-Style Fuel Pump Assembly Kit. This kit features a new 12 Volt electric pump and sending unit and fuel pump hanger. This kit will restore fuel flow, increase fuel efficiency, and ensure a proper fuel gauge reading.
