    New Drum Hub Not Sitting Flush

    I recently decided to give the rear drums a refresh and bought a rebuild kit from one of the main Bronco sites. So far so good, except when I go to put the actual drum hub on, it sits flush on the axle on either end, but does not come in contact with the backing plate, there is maybe a quarter...

    CA Jeff’s bronco graveyard power steering box

    Hi, I'm interested in this box. Is it roughly the same size as the stock PS box? Also I noticed that the picture is the same at the Jeffs Bronco Graveyard Pic, is this one used? Doesn't matter much, just wondering. Also you mentioned it would be a good upgrade, I assume it's beefier than...

    77 Bronco - Build In The Works

    Hey, just saw this thread. Congrats on the nice Bronco. I have a Coyote swapped Bronco that I've been driving for going on two years. Let me know if you have any questions. If I don't know, I'll always be able to take a picture for you to reference.

    Fiberglass Tub \ Exhaust heat issues

    I know that Lizardskin is a spray on type liner (possibly also paint on) that will help. I know that doesn't help your immediate problem, but if you can't figure it out then applying a product like that might work. I looked into it just before writing this and their regular liner will reduce...

    Header Coatings

    I just sprayed mine with VHT paint on the inside and out a couple of months ago. I think I spent maybe $20 bucks on two rattle cans of it. I had looked into getting ceramic coating applied to my bare steel headers and I think it was $300-$400 on top of what I already paid. I suppose if you can...

    **WARNING** Graphic images within

    I follow, and concur. The more I see people cut theirs, the more I wish I had bought one that was uncut so I could enjoy what is becoming more rare. each their own.

    Most popular / desirable colors on an early bronco? help me choose!

    Oh yeah. I'm kind of partial to Candy Apple Red because that's what I've got, but I've never seen a Caribbean Turquoise Bronco I didn't like. Uncut, they just look so classic and nice. I don't know, I'd paint it the color you like and then leave it to someone else to make it their own when they...

    Where to dump exhaust

    I used to have mine exiting right in front of the rear tires also, it was pretty foul for myself in the car, as well as anyone next to me with the their windows down. Just got a new exhaust that dumps angled straight down right about under the rear bench. No issue at this time. Sure you can't...

    Transmission fluid change yes or no

    Just for peace of mind, I changed every single fluid in mine after I bought it. With these old things, unless you are friends with the PO just assume that they didn't do much to maintain it.

    Second chance on headlight mass buy ends 3/31

    Anyone have pictures these or similar installed from the last mass buy? I'm interested in the upgrade but I'm not too sure about altering my classic look in favor of modernization. I feel like that's a slippery slope and all of the sudden I'll be building an Icon Bronco.

    Power Brake Conversion and other new owner questions

    Hi, congrats on your new ride! Firstly, about your brakes I've driven mine with a failed/dead brake booster essentially making it non-powered brakes and it wasn't bad but you notice when you've got power assisted brakes on your side. I replaced my setup with TBP and they did the trick (PS: I...

    Aluminium radaitor, what one is the best?

    I'm also running the Ron Davis aluminum radiator and it is, no kidding cool to the touch when even after a long stint of highway speed driving. Granted, this was in January, but I used to overheat when there was snow on the ground. +1 for Ron Davis.

    4r70w to D-20 with J shift?

    Perfect. This actually seems to be a cheaper option, so I'll be doing that. That being said, how do you like it with the twin sticks. It's something I'd thought about doing but now that I have to I'm really curious as to the overall impression vs how it was?

    4r70w to D-20 with J shift?

    You are awesome. I looked it up and this seems to be exactly the case. This is why I love the forum and community. Much appreciated sir.

    4r70w to D-20 with J shift?

    Is anyone out there running this combo? I bought the advanced adapters kit to do this swap and on their website they say if you are running a J Shift pattern D-20 it "will require a bit of ingenuity"...so I emailed them to get the lowdown but haven't heard back. Is anyone running the advanced...

    4r70w Controller Options/Opinions

    Well I think you may be right. I had hoped that I might get another opinion but frankly, there might not be one because there's not a reason for anyone to have anything else. Fair enough.

    4r70w Controller Options/Opinions

    Well that's what I'd heard. There isn't a single person I've run into (online or otherwise) that doesn't like the US Shift controller. What I'm really interested in is if anyone has ever even heard of someone running something else. Just about 100% of the time, I'm willing to pay more to get...

    4r70w Controller Options/Opinions

    So, I know that this subject has been pretty well worn out for the most part. I was a member here for the quick shift mass buy and have heard a lot about them and how well they work. Now, I had planned to buy one from the guys at BC Broncos, but saw they have another from PCS call Simple Shift...

    Coyote Bronco done

    Crate engines from Ford Racing and other vendors (who basically get them from Ford Racing) range in the $7k+ all the way to $10k-$15k for Boss 302 and supercharged variants. Pull outs are to be had for ~$4,500 or the best deal you can find. Then a min $1,500 for an EMS and harness. Not to...
