When I bought my bronco it was advertised as a 68, i didnt know enough at that time to see the tell tales that would have informed me otherwise. It was a 69 frame, 66 or 67 body with a 68 regi. None of this mattered to me because im building a resto mod that is far from stock. I didnt realize at...

Hi everyone, I recently came across some used parts. A c4 auto with adaptors bolted to a dana 20 T shift t-case. A fellow bronco owner near me told me he thought all autos were j shift and that the t-cases were auto and manual spacific. Is there any truth to this cause now we have each other...

Hey guys, my question is are the 66-77 bronco tailgates virtually the same as the 60's-72 f series tailgates? my bronco tailgate is pretty rusted and there are a few f series tailgates for sale near me. Im pretty sure the f series are longer but the rest looks pretty much exact to me. i know the...

I was just wondering if anyone has done this swap and remembers how long the tie rod is suppost to be from end to end ( center of each tie rod end of coarse ). I know this is an easy problem to fix all i need to do is...

Hey everyone, i am converting my bronco to front disc using the big bronco knuckles and everything. Is there a difference between the ball joints on the drum knuckles and the big bronco knuckles? i read they would just swap over so not even thinking about it i bought the drum ball joints and...

Ok im searching and searching and searching and i cant find anywhere that will tell me the proper positioning for the rear leaf springs. I cannot find anywhere that will tell me what is the front of the rear spring and the rear of the rear spring. Ive installed the springs the way the old ones...

After months of going back and forth from AOD, ZF and NV3550 transmission options its finally final. Found a low k solid running NV3550 for $300 (Canadian of course) and ordered the adapter kit. Cant wait to get back on the project.

Looking for some insight into installing the poly c bushings. I noticed my bronco had looked crooked before i disassembled it for my resto so much that i figured the frame was twisted but the frame is good. Got my frame and all the little pieces blasted and painted and now im stuck on the c...

Im in the middle of rebuilding my 69 bronco and after getting my front and rear diffs sandblasted i noticed the plug welds on the dana 44 are cracked. Is this a serious issue or not not worthy? i was reading on another forum about drilling them out, preheating the cast and re-welding them and...

Has anyone who has completed this swap noticed any difference in fuel economy? Other than the obvious reliability boost can anyone tell me anymore pros and cons? 1 of my problems with doing this swap is my original harness was destroyed and i need to purchase a new 1 and i would hate to play...

My early bronco has front drums and im looking for a dana 44 from a 73-79 truck or bronco. It seems up here in British Columbia there are none for sale from half ton trucks. My question is would the front knuckle/spindle/caliper assy from a 3/4 ton work if i was to get all the parts knuckle out...
