    Heater Box Mod/Rebuild

    So I picked up a reseal kit and the higher output motor mod to freshen things up a bit. When I pulled the box apart to start the process I discovered that in some point in the last 50 years someone was in there and lost the small spring steel clip that snaps in and holds the heater core in...

    Fox body SERP setup

    Will a 302 out of an 82 Foxbody fit in a Bronco? I have an opportunity to get one For a pretty decent price complete with all the dress on the front. If it won’t fit though I don’t think it’s worth it. Anyone have any previous experience with this vintage of mustang swap?

    DS Floor pan

    Thanks, I hadn't thought of just breaking some metal for small sections like that. I might have to source a small break for such projects.

    DS Floor pan

    I'm digging into some floor pan replacement, the DS pan is shot. but i also need to replace the vertical at the back where it comes from floor pan level up to the level the seat mount on. (About half of this vertical height) I can't tell by looking at vendor pictures in catalogs or online so far...

    Hard top bows

    Okay thanks for the info. The top i have is a 66, it has two bows which are bolted in. I've seen some info where guys bent there own and hadn't seen much on the new stuff. I might try bending some up out of small diameter box tube. The shipping to Alaska sometimes isn't the best and makes the...

    Hard top bows

    I did some searching but didn't find any results. Is there any threads showing new bow installs? I'm curious if they weld in or bolt in and the difficulty level on the install. Anyone have results to share?

    tow bar

    I have some experience with a tow bar and not all of it good.We towed a 68 back to Alaska behind our motorhome a couple years ago. I fabricated the tow bar mounts on the aftermarket/homebuilt winch bumper and they held up great. The problem arose when the bumper to frame interface failed. The...

    Pricing opinion wanted

It's a '71 Has '77 diffs, 31 spline Currie Detroit rear, powerlock front Power brakes and steering (oem stuff from a '77) 3spd floor shift and...

    Atlas T-case flat tow?

    So I know the D20 can't be flat towed without pulling the driveshaft. Can an Atlas t-case be flat towed with the driveline still in place? Anyone know this answer before I dig into the web?

    Sniper/stiff sticky pedal

    Thanks for all the ideas guys. I think I am going to chase that progressive linkage and also move towards a cable throttle instead of the bellcrank linkage. I'll post some results here after I get that all in place.

    Sniper/stiff sticky pedal

    So I installed a sniper system and it's worked flawlessly since day one. I'm still trying to dial in a few things on it tuning wise, but all in all I'm happy with the results. It does have a stiff or sticky spot right off the bottom. It's kind of a pain in the neck to try and leave a light, or...

    Wild Horses SS Fuel stank Problem

    I didn't take any photos and since its already installed I'm hopefully not going to have an opportunity to get any for a long while. I installed the fuel pump and then when I tightened the wires everything was hunky dory and then I was moving the assembly around and I bumped it on something and...

    Wild Horses SS Fuel stank Problem

    If I understand correctly the ground stud on the inside broke off? This happened to mine as well during install. Thankfully before I put the pump assembly inside and sealed everything. I just drilled a hole in the vertical piece that goes down inside the tank and grounded the pump there. It's...

    LED lightbar or individual lights - winshield or rack mounted - need some opinions

    Yeah those are the ones. I forgot they are spelled a bit different than it sounds. If there is a Cat equipment dealer near you it's possible to get just the components you need and then you don't have to buy a high dollar kit. They sure aren't a cheap connector, but about as good as you can get...

    LED lightbar or individual lights - winshield or rack mounted - need some opinions

    Th GM weatherpack connectors work well, but I've found the Duetz connectors that caterpillar uses to be a better connection for staying weatherproof and resisting corrosion. They also end up being slightly smaller and make for a cleaner install. The downside is the tool for them is speedy, but...

    WH Stainless Tank M1A1 Install Question

    I just installed one of these tanks. The only issue I had was interference between the passenger side mounting bolt and the 2/1 exhaust that passes through. I was able to bend the vertical portion of the tab closer to the tank and then shorten the horizontal portion. I re-drilled the hole and...

    Raleigh NC area members?

    So I recently bought a Bronco from Pops in Ohio and drove it down to Raleigh. It's parked at my sister-in-laws right now. I'm flying back down from work in Alaska next Monday. I'll be doing some work on it and then shortly after Turkey day the family and I are embarking on a cross country road...

    Exhaust for my combo

    I recently bought Pop's 68 and am looking at doing some mods/ improvements. I'm running a 351w w/ 4 barrel carb, mostly stock beyond that. Behind that I have a NV3550/dana20 combo. Does anyone have this combo and can share which headers/exhaust they are running? I've read through lots of...

    My 'sold' Bronco's travels

    Well I better get myself introduced on here. I'm Rob and I'm the guy who just bought Pops Bronco. It was a good deal I feel and sure went smooth considering the distance traveled and logistics getting there to look it over. I've been out of the Bronco game for awhile, but I started liking them...
