What Did you Do With Your Bronco Today???

[L\Bronco]

3G Alternator upgrade accomplished and on line.
14.5 V @ 130A- good to go
Hey L, the 'mystery' green wire Was the one. It did everything possible to conceal the red line. Had to twist the thing 180* to reveal it. (typical-typical)
The G/r is the power wire that has that black plastic squeeze-lock connector on it which looks as if should have a old style bus fuse inside......but is just a connector.
Other then that, a bit of die grinder work on the inner side of the bracket & some circuit protection. Done deal. Time to get some more miles on this critter.

Awesome Jimbo!
Great work!
Enjoy the drive!
Headed to Boise today for the ignitor!
When I get home, Im going to knuckle down and finish the upgrades to the 69l
Got her running last week, (the lunatti voodoo roller cam did the trick! Plus new 2 1/2” exh and she sounds sweeet!
Cheers

Rolled over the 48K mile mark yesterday. Almost time for the 2nd eng. oil change. That F4 motor hums right along & does fair Mpg for a pushrod.

Ok, gurus. I've seen plenty of ways to clean/bring back the Gen 4 F-series headlights once they get that dull, yellowed look or haze over.
Anybody out there have a sure-fire way of restoring the things to new or near new condition?
A commercial kit that works Every time regardless?
Thx & I'll be standing by.......

Hey Jimbo!
We wet sand with 1000, work up to 2000, then cut polish.
A bit of effort, but always works

 

[Jimbo26]

May try that if all else fails, thx.
Found some Meguiars PlastX and gave that a couple of passes, front & back as the rear fixtures were pretty faded to. Stuff seems to have worked fairly well. Elbow grease is the ticket.
Now it looks like is time to do the MLP sensor shuffle. Was hoping I would get away with it, but those older components like that were known to be problematic- just like trying to source obsolete parts locally these days.

Installed a set of LED headlights- wow, what a difference. Now these new HID lit vehicles can get some punishment right back.
