Having bought other items from Tuffy Security Products I knew I could expect their new 66-77 Bronco glove box to be heavy duty, and I certainly wasn't disappointed. Just like their consoles, the Bronco glove box is a solid 16 guage steel box with a tough...

Most have run into the problem of where to put that big ol' Hi-Lift jack. Well a couple of my buddies had a solution. I copied their idea and now present it to you.
This mount cost about 10 dollars. And all the parts can bought at your local...

I'm always looking for more lockable space in my Bronco. The space behind the rear seat in an early Bronco does afford some area, but you can be limited by the rear fender wheel wells and roll bars if you have them. I found that the diamond-plate...

First you're going to need three things; the Smittybilt interior tube bar with the back legs out of the Bronco., 3 point bolt in harness style seat belts, I chose Corbeau's so I don't know if other kinds will work for this mod, and...

For those of you that want to refurbish your Stock Gauge cluster, or want to reset your odometer to reflect a motor rebuild or gauge swap. (Seeing as these Rigs are well over 25 years old, most states usually don't see mileage as an issue on sales and...

2. Push paperclip/wire while turning key to the left, past “ACC”
3. The Cylinder will come right out.
4. No key? Use a...

Since I had to ask several questions when I removed my dash, I'm sure there are others with some of the same issues; here's how I ended up doing it:
This was the starting point, an intact dash. First thing to do would be get the W/S out of the...

This is the way I made my stock rear seat stronger and safer for the little beaners.
First you have to acquire a rear seat, then you have to take it apart, this is the easy part. The armrests are attached with nuts the studs are part of the...

The heater box in my 66 Half Cab looked pretty sad. I still have the heater box from my previous 73 Bronco sport. The following are the steps I took to refurbish the heater box, plus seal it and installed a new heater core. I bought the following parts...

This is a replacement heater for the stock classic bronco heater. The OEM heater in the classic bronco just does not supply enough air for the cab or the defrost, this replacement sends out enough air at 20 times the amount of the stock heater, with the...

Tired of scraping ice from the inside of my windshield in the winter, I set out to come up with a better way to heat my Bronco. Granted sealing up all the air leaks goes a long way towards making the factory heater perform the way it was designed, but I have a...
This has probably been one of the best modifications I've ever done to my Bronco. It was cheap, easy and gave me a much greater sense of safety both on the trail and the daily work commute. Basically all this modification consists of is picking up some retractable shoulder belts from your local...

I wanted to provide good clean fuel to my efi project and to be sure I had fuel at any angle I might find myself at. I looked into all the different options for accumulators and decided that like everything else on my bronco, half the fun is making it...

The use of racing "billet" fuel doors has become a popular upgrade to both street and off-road vehicles. There are two versions of the billet fuel door available for the Early Bronco. The first is a large billet "door" that covers a recessed stock fuel cap...

Sending unit.
Check winding for resistance, opens, shorts with a meter. Here the resistance should be ~70 ohms
About 10 ohms here.
There might be varnish built up on this end of the shaft here. Give it a little cleaning and the halves will...
Product Review by Jon Hanna (Admin)
Let's face it, Ford did a few things on our beloved Broncos that probably could have been done better; like those ridiculously small gas tanks. Having to stop 3 times on my way to Moab to fill up the 12 gallon stock tank in my '72 was really getting...

I am doing a frame off restoration on my bronco and when I got to the frame, well lets just say I had a lot of welding to do. When you start to check for holes, start looking underneath the rear shock mounts. Usually some pretty corrosive stuff can get up here due to...

After replacing my motor with a brand new one, I was bummed to find that it still leaked oil. I had hoped that one of the benefits would be that I would spend less time wiping up oil from the garage floor.
While I was building the new motor, I thoroughly cleaned...

After installing the 89 Crown Vic engine, I had been wanting to upgrade the stock plastic power steering pump to the Saginaw style to help turn the 36" Swampers. What I quickly realized was nobody had a quick and easy solution to fit that sag pump on a non-HO...

After reading about all the cooling problems that you can have with the 351 I did some research on how to minimize the problems I could have. After some reading I discovered that some intakes did not have the rear cooling ports open for use of the cooling system. Checked...
