Identfy Parts 68

[RV BRONCO]

2nd time reaching out.1968 Ford Bronco ,289 Engine. Just need to Identify and what these parts are for.

Far right is the clutch equalizer bracket that bolts on top of the frame rail. No clue on the middle three. I recognize the far left, but can't place it. I know I'm not much help, but 20% is better than nothing...

 

[RV BRONCO]

Thanks

Second from the right looks like the tire rack safety cable bracket, and the two silver pieces next to it look like they could be a cut up tire rack tire hanger.

 

[RV BRONCO]

That makes sense.I did have a unused cut up tire hanger laying in the back.Must have been used and cut up for parts? So far everyone is helping out. I just hung these parts on the carrier. That is the tire rack safety cable.Still unsure on the silver pcs and the large black piece from original picture.

tire rack safety cable bracket

Someone pounded it flat. You can see where the factory bend once was.

 

[Oldtimer]

The two silver pieces should be welded together like this. Hangs on tire rack, bolt holding tire on goes thru upper hole, safety cable hooks in slotted hole and pokes thru lower hole on rack.

 

[RV BRONCO]

wow.That is a priceless picture. That made my day.

 

[RV BRONCO]

Thats a Trifecta.Now any thoughts on the Left part?

 

[RV BRONCO]

Productive day.Installing one part

It kind of looks like the aux tank strap bracket.

I'll check on a diagram if I can find one.

Picture from other side of left bracket.

A few more pictures of other side of bracket.Went page by page in a old Chilton Manual and found nothing. Maybe a shield for exhaust?

 

[RV BRONCO]

It goes on here somewhere? I painted the part when I painted the frame two years ago.I had pictures but lost phone and lost valuble dismantling pictures.

I have one of these somewhere in my garage as well, but for the life of me have no idea where it came from.

 

[Oldtimer]

Gas tank heat shield, passenger side,
single hole bolts to bottom of frame near rear spring perch
double holes bolt to backside of rear crossmember
tank strap passes thru square cutout

This area may be bent, I think mine is flat

If needed, I can take pictures of mine, when the sun comes up.

 

[serial car restorer]

Can be seen in pictures #278 & 279 in this old BaT listing.

gas tank shield, also, that square hole cut looks previous owner.

 

[thegreatjustino]

that square hole cut looks previous owner.

Now I need to go find mine as I recall mine has that square hole as well.
