Dear Bronco Gurus, After many years of rebuilding my rig.. It is just about ready for paint.. I have replaced too many parts and done too much to list.. But, the readers digest version is that I replaced most of the stock wiring, coil, regulator, relay, and the stock distributer with an...

Hi All, Thought I would seek a little guidance. Looking to buy a new electronic distributor and coil setup for my 1970 bronco (302 stock). Any good suggestions? I was looking at the Pertronix setup from Wild Horses for about $260. Any thoughts? Thanks..

:-[ :-[ :-[ Still having trouble determing the source of an intermittent loss of spark and weak spark when I get it. Before I describe what I did, I believe the PO may have tinkered a bit. So far I have replaced the alternator, coil, alternator wiring and battery. The dist was previously...

It has been three years of hard work and I am finally read to hit the pavement. Outside of a frame up restoration and new Engine, I have nearly gone over the entire truck. However, I am experiencing an intermittent electical problem. It now appears to be completely dead (e.g. no spark). I...

I need a little help. I just received my rollbar from Bronco Bob and it looks great! Can't wait to get started. However, I have no hard or soft top and prior to welding it together, I need measurements from either the floor to the bottom of the hard top front and back or from the top of the...

Getting ready for my new roll bar form Bronco Bob to arrive. I'm real excited becuase the style is real unique and it was real affordable. So, my question is how do I paint it? I want the color to be white. I noticed POR15 sells something called white coat that looks real good. I also...

Hi All, Almost there.. After three years of hard work.. The truck starts, runs ok (except for a missing muffler), and I just finished putting in a new windshield frame.. Any techniques or suggestions on how to install my widnshield back into the frame? Also, any reccomendations on which...

Hi, I was thinking of ordering the basic family roll cage from All 4 fun Offroad. The price is great and I think the style is unique. http://www.broncobob.com/rollbars.shtml Has anyone purchased this kit before? I want to see how much trimming it required and to ensure the bends were all...

I finally found a local roll bar.. However, I want to weld a few options onto it. It is 1 1/2 tube. Any ideas on where I can find 1 1/2 tube? I went to Home Depot , but they only have very heavy pipe or galvanized steel. I am assuming these are not good candidates? Any ideas? Thanks...

I am looking to buy a roll bar and wanted some advice. I am not planning to do any off roading and will probably just drive around town, to the beach, and have some fun. However, I really wanted to get a decent roll bar, maybe a 6pt. Essentially Offroad has a great 6 pt. bar ($380 with...

After one year of hibernation and a near complete restoration, I am ready to ride again! I finally got the truck to start and get the carb to idle, but it is making an ungodly high pitched whining noise that I can't fix. It is not the water pump or alternator belts and does not sound like the...

To the Bronoc Guru's out there.. You guys are the best! I have nearly rebuilt me entire truck with little prior mechanical knowledge just based on information I have found on this website. I am finally ready to get my truck back on the road after one full year of major reconstruciton (new...

:mad: :mad: :mad: I finished replacing my passenger door post a few weeks ago without an issue. I used the measurments in the link below and with a little adjusting, it opened and closed beautifully. http://classicbroncos.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=47507 However, I can't...

Another newbie question here... I am replacing the passenger kick panel and finally ground out all the old rusty metal... When I hold the kick panel up under where the heater box goes, it appears that the top left piece that goes behind the door post is missing the core mount by 1 inch or so...

Another quick question. Looking for some guidance from the Guru's.. I started to weld various patch panels in my cancerous rig and I'm really unhappy with the quality of the welds. I have never welded before and am using a 110 V / 100 Amp gasless MIG welder from Harbor Frieght Tools that I...

Quick Question - Does anyone have detailed pictures of a door post and kick panel installation? I am about ready to re-install mine and I want to ensure I match everything up ok. In particular I really would like a close up picture of the top of the door post / kick panel as it get's welded...

I am about ready to weld in new floor pans, a door post and kick panels. I have grinded all welding surfaces so they are nice and clean. do I need to use weldable primer or can I simply spot weld them in, seal everything, and then use SIlver Bullet to cover everything? I am worried about...

So here I am with a Bronco that looks like swiss cheese that I haven't driven in over a year. I thought I was going to get assistance replacing the door posts, kick panels and floorboards, but have been left high and dry by a local body guy who was going to weld in panels for me. I have tried...

I thought I would ask for some advice from the Bronco gurus on this site.. So far everyone's words of wisdom have really helped me out. I have a replacement tailgate primed and ready to go in. Can anyone reccommend a stategy or approach to remove the hardware from my old rusty tailgate and...
