    Spark/Fuel

    Few days ago my truck stalled sitting at a light. Was running just fine, sudden shudder, then nothing. Cranks but no start. I don't hear the fuel pump whine, so I'm figuring the pump. But there's no spark either. New coil, cap/rotor (old one's were thrashed anyway) and still nothing. Now...

    wheel size

    Anyone know the standard backspacing and whatnot of a standard 15" wheel that won't rub or need spacers? I have a 3" lift, but have a small spacer and want new wheels for 10.5 tires. Also, anyone know if a 302/5.0 exhaust headers will fit a 351/5.8? I doubt it will match up.

    Tailgate latches

    My tailgate latch on the right side will not lock. When I close it by hand, it locks and works fine but when I close it, nothing. I've sprayed it with wd-s0 and worked it, I've moved the striker all around. It used to work, and just up and stopped. Any ideas, guys? Thanks.

    Doors

    My window motor died on me, and the replacements don't fit. Now, I have an 89 truck, with sport mirrors. The parts computer says that the motor is the same from 80-96, but it doesn't fit; the motor's boltholes are about 1/4" out too far to bolt to the regulator. Anyone know what might be going...

    Replacable section?

    Few days ago I heard a thunking noise when I hit any bumps. Went to check it out, and it turns out what the very end of my exhaust was bolted to is rusted completely through/off. Passenger side, if I stick my head in the rear wheelwell and look back, it's like a u-channel of metal. Is this...

    Rear driveshaft

    Doing the u-joints on my 89's rear driveshaft. So far, smooth going. Until I hit this spring in the front half, inbetween the 2 u-joints. My questions are what is it, what's it do, and do I really NEED it? :P /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

    Grease on wheels

    My front right wheel has grease on it, and I'm sure it's from the hub. The screws on the manual hub are tight, and I suspect it might be a warped bearing/race or something along those lines. Haven't wheeled it, haven't hit anything, and the only thing I've done to that wheel is a new tire and a...

    Inside panels

    I want to replace the plastic panel inside the truck, behind the doors (both sides) where the speakers are. They person who did the speakers before I bought it decided to go a size up, and cut the panels and then duct tape them in... I kid you not. It's ugly, and the speakers are now starting to...

    Calipers

    I need to replace the calipers on the front of my Bronco. Aside from buying dual piston calipers made specificly for it, would the calipers from an F250 or 350 work? I know some 250s came with dual pistons and d44 front axles. And would there be any benefit from adding the 250s calipers, or are...

    Auto shifter

    Anyone have an automatic with a tunnel mounted shifter? I'm interested in getting something like this. I know I'd need the shifter tunnel box, but does anyone have any pics? I want it to look good, but still function as it should. And would this turn an auto into a manual? I doubt it, but the...

    Synthetic Oils

    Anybody run synthetic oils in their broncos? Crankcase, diff, trans or any other types. I heard both sides of the story, that they can be put in place of conventional oil, and that they leak like a river when put in anything that's not designed for it. I'd like to run Torque oil in it, but if...

    Starting problem

    So a few weeks back I had to take the starter solinoid off the fender to put in my daily driver, another Ford, sicne gas is up to 4 bucks a gallon. And now that I put another one in, a new one, as soon as I connect the battery it cranks. I don't leave it on long enough to start, if it will, but...

    Tailgate access

    While putting my tool boxes in the back of the truck to take to my new job, I put the window down and up and down... but it never went back up. The switch in the truck never worked, but since I only had it about a month so far, I never got to fix it. Now, I think the motor's dead. How do I crack...

    Fire exstinguisher

    I'm looking for a good way to mount a fire exstinguisher. Currently, I have a somewhat large "garage" style my dad gave me when I got my truck, rated a-b-c, and it's just kinda lying behind the passanger seat. I want to mount it to the trans tunnel, but I can't find any sort of mounting clamp or...

    Shocks

    My bronco has a blown shock (in the sense that the inner rod is... no longer inside, it's resting peacefully OUT of the main body) and luckly it's the quad shock setup, so I was able to limp home. I'm not driving on it as it is. It's got a 2" lift as is, and I want to keep it that way till I can...

    New truck

    This is my second bronco, after my 90 got totaled. It's heartbreaking to let it go, but I have to. I made no compromise when getting a new vehicle, and I got what I wanted - another bronco. This one's an 89, with a 351 already in it. It has a mild lift, he said 2" but I can't verify it just yet...

    Blinker switch

    Just got my second bronco, an 89 with a 351w and c6. The blinkers don't stay locked on when I move the lever. They work, but it doesn't hold in position. Anyone ever replace one, what do I need, and is it difficult to do?

    4x4 shifter

    Has anyone customized their 4x4 shifter knob? Is it screw on, glued on, or what? And does anyone have any pics? I want to customize mine, but I don't wanna break it and have just a stick left haha.

    Radius arm bracket

    I can't tell if this is the bracket I need to replace the end of the radius arm, that goes from the frame to the threaded back half of the radius arm, away from the tire. I'm buying an 89 bronco, since I totaled my 90. Long story short, someone cut me off in the snow, slid on the ice into a...

    Steering Wheels

    I've been wanting to get rid of my old Ford steering wheel. It's one of the thin ones, and it just doesn't feel... right. Anyone ever put a Grant GT on their cruise controled bronco? I'm sure someone has, but I'm wondering how hard it is and if I really do need all the special attatchments and...
