    Blinker issues,

    You did not say if your front turn signals were LEDs. If so that may be the problem. They do not provide enough resistence for a normal flasher to work. Another thought is the ground is not good. If the front clip was replaced it's a good chance that the ground strap was left off. I would...

    Electrical Issue

    I agree with chrlsful...lots of electrical issues come from poor grounds. There has to be a proper ground from the battery to the frame and frame to engine, body to frame and engine to body. All free from grease and corrosion. Good luck

    2020 Ford Bronco Thoughts

    I'm guessing that it will be a luxo/ cab for wannabe off roaders and expensive as M5 said.

    75 brake issues

    Hey Chuck, Proportioning valves are not serviceable for us home mechs....and with a problem such as you describe the valve would not be the culprit.  It could cause other problems such as sticking or uneven braking but not a low or soft pedal.   As Bully eluded: Your issue is either air...

    Hardware plating question

    My #1 question is ...Why?    It appears that you are building a show truck.  If so you need to understand that in the course of making things bright and shinny you may have to compromise in other areas.  I.E. the plated rod ends will look great,  but may not have their best use or longest...

    89 5.0 with a miss

    If the vacuum gauge is steady the valves and internals should be good.  Try switching the #8 plug wire with another wire to see if the missing cylinder changes. I'm thinking the the problem is the plug wire. Better to do the easy stuff before getting into the engine.

    No power to ignition switch on my 88 Ford Bronco

    Hey E, welcome, Check the fuses and the fuse panel.  The ignition switch gets its power from a red wire with light green stripe. ( on these old trucks the wire could have been spliced by the previous owner) .   There could be a poor connection between the fuse block inner and outer halves.  ...

    seat option

    My 96 had a lever that pivoted the back forward and moved the seat forward as well. (As I remember).  I didn't like to use it because it meant i had to readjust the driver seat to my liking each time.   I think it was smaller and down by the pivot hinge. I don't know if it was an Eddie Bauer...

    Help, 89 FSB Backfiring out the exhaust

    Hey krbjr, I've been thinking of your problem and would like to take an analytical approach to it. I would ignore the codes for now. (They could be the result of the initial problem and the backfire) I'm sure you did a visual check of the vacuum lines and wiring and such.  Also check the...

    Lincoln Locker - Weld Front Dana 44 IFS 87 Bronco

    What do you primarily use the truck for?  If you remove the diff/ axle for any reason it would be prudent to have it professionally realigned unless you are using it off road only.  Then you could do the poor mans  toe set and move on. I see no advantage to welding the diff... other than having...

    Hello from Talladega, Al.

    Welcome Kr, Actually fuel injection is very simple once you get to know the components. Much more simple than carbs.   What issues specifically are you having with your Bronc?
