1968 Ford Bronco Parts & Accessories – History & Specifications

1968 Ford Broncos were largely unchanged from the 1966 & 67 Bronco models.  One major change could be found in the doors.  The lower door shells were re-stamped and the door striker position was relocated.  The door latches were also redesigned in 1968 and the door latch rods were made thicker making them less likely to bend with continual use.  1968 Ford Broncos still retained vacuum wiper motors and the 170 ci six-cylinder and 289 V8 engines were still the two motor options offered.  Some other small changes occurred in 1968 Ford Bronco models including a changeover from wiper washer bags to a new wiper washer bottle system.
