Ford Bronco Until the mid '90s, the Ford Bronco was famous for being a rough-and-tumble off-road vehicle that had been tackling trails and fording streams since the 1960s. It was also one of the first sport-utility vehicles: a versatile truck then described by Ford as being able to serve as a family sedan, sports roadster, snowplow or farm and civil defense vehicle.

If it's the rear main....it's not easy. Altho...it depends on if you have a one piece or 2 piece rear seal. I believe the newer motors use a one piece and the older ones use a 2 piece seal. The one piece seals require you to remove the flywheel/flexplate and the faceplate from the back of the motor. Then you can remove the oil pan and replace the seal.
