I was wondering what auto trans for city driving off a car would be a easy swap for my 71 bronoco?

IM also looking to put power brakes and steering if anyone can give me some insight on that too it would be greatly appriciated!

Welcome
easiest and most direct swap would be to swap in a C4 they came as a option on 73 up broncos and you can find them used for less than $500. But it has no OD like the modern trannys everyone is swapping in.
Check out the links section on the left hand side of the page there are many articles covering transmissions brakes and steering.

If you are going power brakes consider the front disc conversion as well. You can do it with wrecking yard parts. I thought it would be fun to build it myself but next time going to order a kit. You get all new parts in one box. For power steering easy way is stock Bronco power steering unit. Someone on here had one for sale a few days ago. Get a four turn box. Do a search for parts list and how to on this forum.
