It's always amazes me what a vehicle will go through when you don't really care about damage
I was going to say the same thing. The less you care the more the capability.
Can confirm. I've been airborne offroad in a Volvo 240 (not the driver).
Thats the key. Beat it like a rented mule and you can get it almost anywhere. Maybe not all the parts arrive still attached to the truck but who's counting?
Hillbilly has skills. No telling where he can go when it's rebuilt! Great video!
Skill matters more than hardware every time in every vertical I've witnessed.
dam straight was gonna say the same he had faith in the ol girl🤙🤙
Not skill at all it’s just lack of caring about destroying clapped out things 😂
@@509FUN that also 🤣🤙
Yes, I think it is time to rebuild Hillbilly's truck. He has been a great employee and deserves the attention.
Impressive for what it is and I agree, I think he definitely has earned some love for his rig!
@Andy did you see robbys Can AM. He got his toy. That thing costs nearly as much as a jeep
@Andy yup and hillbilly and dinner. Just realized it might have come off like I didn't agree. I do agree but robby got his toy :D
yeah if he cant get a harley atleast the broncster needs a tune up
@@nekoroms someone should donate one. I guarantee there are viewers with a Harley sitting in a shed as a project they never started and won’t.
As a Bronco II owner, this will be the best you tube build ever.
Hillbilly being 100% hillbilly, love it 👍🏻 Wish I had a car like that to play with!
Hillbilly, that's one tough little Bronco and yes you made it much farther than I thought you could! You made it in and out in mostly 1 piece 👏 👍👍
an example of well balanced components
Now that was a true display of determination. Nice job, Hillbilly.
Bbb
Bhvhvhvvv
I grew up with a bronco II as a family car. I loved that thing and it was probably one of the best cars my dad ever had. This one needs some
Love though. I’ve always been a big advocate of it’s how you drive not necessarily what you drive that gets you there. Hillbilly gets some points for that.
Very impressive! A lot of successful wheeling comes down to how well you know your vehicle and what it can do though and hillbilly has been driving that vehicle a long time, he knows exactly what it will do and where it will go.
Man Hillbilly is a good ole’ boy for sure!
Gotta give Hillbilly and the Bronco II some credit. He was determined and knew his rig and it was tough enough to take the beating. As a fan of the Ranger and Bronco II of the era, I'm looking forward to the build on this one.
Hillbilly's shifter reminds me of the old Hot Rod magazine cartoons! Love it!!
You guys are a little crazy, but that's what I like about you all. Get some tires and that supercharger on the Bronco Hillbilly! Cheers from West Jordan.
I loved this video so hard.. can't wait to see the hillbilly express get some much needed upgrades! You guys are awsome.
Hillbilly is the true definition of "when in doubt - send it!"
My buddy had a Bronco when we were in highschool. We took it out mudding one night and got so stuck his dad had to go get it in the morning and use his works crane to pull it out of the mud pit we sunk it in. Hillbilly's Bronco brings back awesome memories. THANKS GUYS!!!!
I'm mildly impressed with that Bronco.
Or is it the driver 🤔
Great video guys
I laughed when you jumped on the front to keep Hillbilly from rolling - and knew exactly what The Boss would say. And then she said it.
Well done! Keep doing good stuff with your friends!
“Rory does it” killed me 😂
That was one of my favorites!! Well done Hillbilly and thanks Owen for being such a great sport. I love that you guys have the whole family involved and Demri and Dinner you guys killed it with the camera work. Thanks for taking us along on your adventure.
Hillybilly's a solid dude. I sincerely wish him success and this channel can be his rocket booster.
Robbie and family always leaves me with a huge smile ..I wish I lived in utah but sfla is home ..ty guys
The Boss is my favorite. Robbie is blessed. Keep having fun folks.
I hope your sharing that RUclips $$ with hillbilly and dinner for that matter. We watch for them every bit as much as we do for you Robby.
I'd say a little more 😆 those guys are funny as fuk!
I bought a 1989 Bronco 2 XLT brand new and drove it for 29 years with very little problems. I loved my Baby Bronco!
Good job Hillbilly on making it most of the way with plain Jane Bronco 2. Cant wait to see it with some 1 tons and bfg's. Have Paul build it into a rock crawler for Hillbilly. Only thing i didn't like about them Bronco 2's was the wheel base is to narrow. One ton's will fix that. Hope you get your Voice back soon Robby.
Almost rolled my '87 WAY too many times. LOL
Hillbilly did a great job! My brother-in-law had an '83 Ranger 4X4 with the V-6 and a 5speed, and I was amazed at the places he could take it. It was particularly impressive going down a steep hillside at a walking pace... where the shoulder belt was having to hold us up from being against the dashboard! And that Blazer was sick! Fun video!
I have an early Bronco that I've owned for 35yrs, but I've always liked Bronco IIs.
Put some Explorer axles (and a couple of lockers) underneath it, big strength upgrade.
Use the 4.0 and trans/t case too.
Be fun to build it!
Was thinking the 4.6 or 5.0, but same idea on the chassis. 👌🏻 Smells like perfection.

Rory does what he KNOWS and He is successful..... Never wheel alone is GREAT advice....
Love the Bronco. Way better than a high dollar jeep all scared of a few scratches. That rig could be super tough !! Love to see it super built up but keep it looking rough.
Respect for Hillbilly and the old Bronc - skill and determination can beat fancy machinery.
You might want to add Suspension on the TO DO LIST for Rescue Bronco 1
Color me impressed!!! Time for a complete overhaul of the BRONCSTAR! Hillbilly pulls his weight around the shop and seems to be a great person, he deserves his vehicle done. With that said, I think that Bronco 2 would make a great off road rig; pretty light and small frame it would even fit the side-by-side trails to take care of those recoveries. And for goodness sakes, overhaul that trailer too! They'll be a killer combo!!! (Hint: get the gang involved (Matt, Paul, Chad, Rory, etc.) for input on the build.🤙
For stock it did pretty well but it was also pretty obviously what the difference was between it and a purpose built offroad truck as the Chevy made everything look super easy. Great video.
That built S-10 Blazer made it look easy, like a walk in the park.
For being stock and 4 mismatched tires (one being bald), I think it did pretty well. Definitely will benefit from a wider stance and some more power though.
and for all the tires being at street pressure… though given how old they are I'm not sure if I'd air them down or not, asking for a sidewall tear…
Keep in mind Hillbillies built this country. Hillbillies are a national treasure. Boys just wanna have fun. Fun video, guys. Hillbilly truly deserves a build. The Broncstar II. Stay safe and GOD bless
Nice driving Hillbilly! Can’t wait to see the upgrades to your truck.
Shocked.
I went through like 100 comments and didn't see a single shout out to Owen!!!
He was the (quiet) star here.
Y'all need him. He may want to keep a low profile, but hook him up with some sponsor goods and help trailer him to some fun at Trail Hero or elsewhere once y'all all have rigs. The quiet ones are usually full of surprises.
Wow that's crazy. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friends. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God bless.
Those old bronco 2’s are hard to kill. Good job hillbilly.
Robbie, you know as well as everyone else it needs the 1 tons especially to widen the stance. Loved the video and way to go Hillbilly!! Looking forward to that build
The Bronco did a lot more obstacles than I thought it would! Good job Hillbilly. I think all of the kids had a good time too, out there "hill climbing"!
You can just see hill billy imagining his rig when robby said they were gonna 1-ton swap it 🤣
Yeah you need to put full size axles one tons because if not that thing's going to roll over every slight angle you put it on
This is such a fun channel to watch. All you guys are doing a great job keeping us entertained.
Cheers from Ontario,Canada
Good Job Hillbilly showing what a guy can do with a truck with determination(and a heavy foot on the gas).
Nice job, Hillbilly!!! You are awesome. I can't wait to see the work you do rebuilding it
9:13 has the same energy as “but Rory did it so I can do it to bad” 😂😂
Definitely need more Mrs Robbie
YAY!!! The Bronco is getting the love it deserves. Well done Hillbilly!!
Love this big shifter in the bronco!!😆
and that snazzy polished diamond plate Bezel around the instrument clusters
That’s a serious looking shift knob on Hillbilly’s Bronco!
Hillbilly rules!👍🏻💪🏻
Y'all should rebuild Hillbilly's bronco, would make a great series, and I think he deserves it, some bumpers, nice lift and tires, and good paint job
I think the Broncos best use and capability is to drive to the wrecking yard and stay there. I'd wear a mask while riding in that thing so no one could recognize me and get a tetanus shot after. now I see how the tongue on the trailer got bent after Hillbilly's U turn.
Love the Pink Floyd shirt. The Bronco II lived up to it trademark name. Give it some love and upgrades it deserves. R.E.S.P.E.C.T. Aretha would be proud!
No matter what you do to it it's still a ford bronco cant polish a turd🤣
It’s just shows you how capable 4wheels are, ok drivers do get credit for ability! Nice showcasing your bronco Hill Billy. Makeover approved.
Robbie and gang, you have to sit back in amazement at where you all are today, not that long ago you ran a humble body shop and today, well things are off the charts. Congrats on your collective well deserved success!
That vehicle proved itself bucking and hopping around like a true Bronco 🤙🏽
I had a 1986 bronco 2 for a long time that I loved. I put in 4:11’s and it got me every where I needed to go.
Light weight off roaders will surprise a lot of people. That what makes Samurai's so good off road. Decent tires and lockers and the Bronco II would be even better until Hillbillys heavy foot finds the first weak link
Deff needs a wider stance and larger tires to protect from roll overs. Of course, as you said, it needs some frame stiffening. And with all of that extra weight it could do with just a bit of power
Those Bronco II's have such a narrow stance, brought back bad memories of nearly rolling one on a hunt in the 90's on a sidehill two-track.
Call me crazy but the Bronco may be unstoppable with the upgrades you were talking about. That was crazy, no lift, no lockers, no suspension, no tires. You should put the second gen 3.5 Eco-boost in it for him. This rebuild will be awesome!
if you build it, they will run! 🏁FOMOCO Power 💪🏼One thing I dig about hillbilly is he's never afraid to Send it!! Bronco Bustin'🤠💪🏼🙌
My 1987 Bronco II I had for almost 12 years was one of the funnest vehicles I've ever had. I miss it greatly. Please do a build!
Hillbilly gave it Hell. The Bronco Definitely needs some love.
Let’s get a round of applause for the Broncstar! Been daily driven for years and neglected but still willing to paw it’s way up that trail.
Don’t hate on the b2. They are amazing little wheelers. Have been wheeling a bone stock one for over 20 years. Still going. And quit bashing hillbilly. The guy knows how to have a good time. Much respect hillbilly
Those ole bronco II's will go just about anywhere. I took my Mom's on some unbelievable shit back when I was a kid.
It'll be good to see Hillbillys' Bronco getting rebuilt, go for it!
"LiL Mule"
In my opinion, Hillbilly's shifter was the star of this show! The Bronco operates on sheer force of will.
Two thumbs up for building up the crew vehicles. So everyone can wheel. More winches on everything. Camera Lady needs to adjust her Ranger Danger meter. Put on her scoot-scoot-scooty-booties and stay a safe distance. 6.2 LS in the Ranger with Ford straight axles...paints fine. Cheers 🥂
I loved my '87 Bronco II I had when I was 16. I beat the hell out of that thing and it kept on going. Well, at least until it got T-boned anyways. I would like to eventually get another one, but my current project is an '86 AMC Eagle Wagon.
I did some impressive off-road stuff with my 1984 Bronco II. I bought it new and remember driving it to go snow skiing and having skiers in the parking lot look at it and say they would like to have one and then get into their new BMW or Porche.
(It was new and I had ordered it with every available option except an engine block heater and snow plow package. $12,700)
You got to admit! That little Bronco is pretty dam agile! Hillbilly's rig is becoming famous!
Truly impressed with that beater Bronco II cant wait to see it built .. thanks to Hillbilly and Robby for an entertaining video
Can't wait to see the Hillbilly Bronco shirts when they come out!
I’m shockingly impressed it made it that far without 1 rolling which they are known for 2 blowing up also known for 3 losing some part of the drive line. Great job hillbilly
I had a 84 bronco 2. I put 31 inch tires on it. Front tires hit fenders so Sledge hammered the fenders. It was great for going through pastures, fields and ditches. There’s no rocks around here.
Loved the video, gotta to love Hillbilly and Dinner. Can't wait for the build !
Great work and Hillbilly did a great job giving that Bronco 2 hell!! I had a Bull Nose 86 full size Bronco. Loved that truck best 4x4 I ever had. Keep banging away can't wait to see it redone.
We all saw what you did to Ed's Golden Nugget! so you should do the same for Hill Billy's Bronco! call it "Diamond in the Rough!"
IT is good that I am not a betting person. I would have empty pockets as I did not think it would manage any of the obstacles on that trail .Hillbilly, you did an amazing job of negotiating some difficult terrain. Well done. Get the man some tires, skid plates and reinforce the frame. Then you can continue to improve the Bronco.
Hill-Billy-Goat capable! Build that man a rock crawler, Hillbilly has heart!
Great footage. Hill Billy just mobbing that old bronco is awsome.
The Bronco has one thing going for it. It's based on the Ranger truck, which means there are more options for parts, unlike the first Bronco.
It would be really cool to see hillbilly get spoiled a little bit on his broncstar, he’s a very hard worker and deserves it
I like Owen. Let's see more of him. And yeah. HillBilly's truck needs... no, deserves some love. It clearly doesn't "need" it.
Looks like you all had an awesome day hope to see more of the blazer and can't wait to see the little B2 that couldn't make it as far as it did and get it's 1 ton axles and a supercharger! With all the upgrades and makeover I can only imagine the little B2 will be unstoppable
Owen has some Flex going on with the Blazer.Awesome meats too.1 ton the Bronco and just paint the whole thing with 'Rock-Guard'. No sense in making it pretty when he's going to paint the mountains with it.Box the frame and cage it with sliders connected to it to remove flex.It'll rock-on down the trails.
I agree with the Bosslady, the bronco seriously needs a paintjob. Right after Hillbilly learns to do it.
Layton’s Nation’s first rock crawling adventure on their own. “More, better”.
Hillbilly is rocking it. The Bronco maybe capable - but the driver is the one who knows how to use it!
I'm a real estate appraiser and my Bronco II XLT 5 speed was my best Appraisal vehicle I've ever had.
What a classic, can't believe how much of a twist the old Broncstar got on it, definitely needs the chassis strengthened.😉
I say no paint job on the Bronc! The trails were pretty with the autumn colors everywhere!
When I was a kid (18) I had a Ford ranger.. I had always wanted to get a Branko 2 and swap the Ranger cab onto the B2 and make the bed a supper stubby. 😄
Those little bronco 2 are great here at Barnwell Mountain. The way their wheelbase is set up they are tough little pigs. Give that thing some Bilsteins some 38.45” on 6” lift setting. A tune up. 💪🏼🤘🏼👊🏼
