    James Duff customer service sucks

    They went ahead and charged my card the fee.

    James Duff customer service sucks

    Here’s another rant on Duffs….. I purchased (ordered) their TREX adjustable control arms, which were on back order. Three days later I decided to change my plan and go a different route. I called back on day three to cancel my order. They charged me a 1.5% cancellation charge for credit card...

    LS3/6L80e Engine Swap into my 73

    Tram, I just saw you posted on my LS Swap thread. First things first, I love LS engines as I’ve had 3 so far in my lifetime. Since I had done an LS swap in the past on a 72 corvette, I decided this would be the way to go. The Atlas decision was exactly as Yeller stated, strength but also...

    James Duff customer service sucks

    I had a rant on Duff last year. It was a terrible story and they didn’t really care about me. I initially talked with Susie, but then got the email run around. From that initial call, nobody ever talked to me. I kept asking to speak to someone, but they just sent me emails telling me I was...

    Gas Tank vent

    So this weekend I re-installed my vapor trapper. I added the fuel stopper and then relocated the Vapor Trapper to inside the engine bay. It's mounted on fender well on the drivers side. NO FUMES

    Front Suspension Popping/Clicking sound.

    Reviving this thread as I've since replaced my front steering linkage with the WH Clydesdale, installed new coil springs, and added front sway bar. https://classicbroncos.com/forums/threads/clydesdale-wh-springs-7-degree-cs-helwig-sway-bar-installation.329715/#post-3622560 The clicking sound...

    LS3/6L80e Engine Swap into my 73

    I talked with Tom at Griffin, who was very helpful. He recognized that the radiator is really the wrong one for the application. After 30 minutes of talking through all the options, we settled on two different options: 1) Replace the fan/shroud with the Delta 4100 CFM 18" fan with no shroud...

    Here’s the pic, which includes the offset fan shroud to avoid tip to tip interferance. https://classicbroncos.com/forums/attachments/img_0845-jpeg.931264/

    LS3/6L80e Engine Swap into my 73

    Just talked to the Delta guys. They are telling me they work on a lot of early Bronco swaps (LS, Coyote, Godzilla), and that the issue is the Griffin radiator. He said it's the wrong application due to the limited space between the front frame and the engine. My tube size is 1.25", which they...

    LS3/6L80e Engine Swap into my 73

    My issue is clearance between the fan/shroud and the accessory equipment. My current Griffin design is 2.55" thick (fan is 2.05") and I have about 1/4" to 3/8" clearance between the fan tip and the accessory drive equipment (water pump tip). I can't find any puller fans that are thin enough to...

    LS3/6L80e Engine Swap into my 73

    As always, I typed before I verified. I have a single fan. I bought the Griffin/Fan that Yeller suggested (not blaming). https://www.griffinrad.com/load_details11.php?PartID=280&id=CU-58202-TS&year=All&make=Chevy...

    LS3/6L80e Engine Swap into my 73

    Resolved the radiator fluid issue. Small leak resolved. Now on to another issue….. Engine getting hot at idle when sitting for an extended period (+5 minutes at the Wendy’s drive thru). We had a 90 degree day here over the weekend in Houston and I noticed the engine getting pretty warm, up...

    Gas Tank vent

    I spoke with the tech team at Vapor Trapper earlier this week about my situation. I had “T’d” a vent line to the fuel filler return vent line and then installed the vapor trapper in the rear wheel well, as high as possible. I had the same issue where gas would expand and then flood the VT...

    Clydesdale + WH Springs + 7 degree C’s + Helwig Sway Bar Installation

    NEW PROBLEM I realized that I installed the WH extreme duty front coil spring cups backwards. I had the bottom tab that holds the coil in place on the outboard side. Yesterday I went to correct the issue and found that on the passenger side, the holes in the cup didn't line up with...
