    Help w/ rattlecan black paint touch-up?

    Miss Kitten's debut of the "Dark Horse" inspired me to spruce up the 78 Bronco. I never have cleaned it up, much less washed & waxed it in the 3 years I've had it. But I've had an issue with surface rust on the roof, and wanted to address it before it ate thru and ended up being a problem...

    Finished with the 84 - Yahoo!!!

    Have been busting my #$% the last few months getting done with the 84 Bronco, hoping to make a run on Memorial Weekend. I couldn't go , but I did technically 'finish' the 84 after being down since July of 2005. Four years, wow. It started with a practice run thru my on-farm mudpit and running...

One for the stock alt/crank/fan, the other for the ps pump/crank/fan. I haven't seen an A/C-bypass pulley for a...

    New brake lines leaking at fittings

    Finally got around to testing my brake lines that I've installed into the 84 Bronco. Some I made myself, others are pre-made legnths from O-reilly's Auto Parts. I bench-bled the master cylinder, and let gravity flow take the fluid down the lines as much as possible before try to bleed the...

    failing brakes/ wet rear tire?

    Jumped in the 78 Bronco today and fired it up, haven't driven it since a run right before X-mas. I was having a problem with the brakes going out, and figured it may be a leaking rear wheel brake cylinder. When I came home the other night and shined the headlights on the Bronco, I could see a...

    testing copy & paste

    You might pose that ? in the forums, should get lots of opinions. In my experience rock crawling, ground clearance is more important than a locker. the breakover point seems to be 35" tires where i go in the TX hill country. the Jeeps and Sami's with 31's/ 33's need lockers. The blazers and...

    Where to buy steel spring wedges?

    I''ve been looking for awhile, trying to find a pair of steel 6-degree wedges to put under the front springs on my 84 Bronco with the Dana60 SAS. I can find the aluminum ones all day long, but I''d prefer steel ones so I can tack weld them to keep from slipping out, JSM84

    Currently working on the Holley Truck Avenger carb on my 460 in the 84 Bronco after replacing the blown-up 351W. Looking for a diagram or good pic of how the C6 tranny kickdown rod linkage hooks up to the carb, as well as down at the other end. The C6 came out of the same 88 F-350 as the 460...

    stock y-pipe questions

    I have a simple question that perhaps someone can answer. What is the tubing size/ diameter of the stock y-pipe for the 84 351W H.O. on my Bronco? I'm hoping to be able to re-use it on my 460, since I cut the exhaust off it to pull the motor, and the exhaust pipe ends and flanges wre badly...
