Wish I lived closer. Check for rust in the regular places. Look for repairs to sheet metal. A lot of guys just go right over rusty metal with new metal don’t be afraid of a little rust if you plan on repairing it.

Great idea to post this request up here. Plenty of members at least somewhat nearby.
Problem will likely be the short notice just before a Friday.

Good luck either way!

Do a deep check, look for wetness for axle seal leaks, seal leaks lead to a deeper pocket to fix, if you can check the fluids, front and rear end differentials, transfer case, tranny, engine, all fluids. Listen for unusual sounds when starting and test driving! Broncos are over priced so use any thing you find to bring down the price! Hope this helps!

If you don't find someone to go look at it with you, make a detailed video top to bottom, inside and out and upload it to Youtube and then post the link here so we can look it here.
