    Dana 44 housing ford / chevy

    I have been looking for a high pinion housing to build for the bronco. I need to rotate the C's and weld on new wedges. I was looking at what I thought was a ford axle but turns out it was a chevy. It was from a c 20. I noticed the flat top knuckle, thats what gave it away as a chevy. It was...

    Package from Landshark99

    Before the Baja trip took place, Landshark99 had PM'd me asking is I had another commander 950 ECU. He was wanting a back up for the Baja trip. I took the one out of the bronco I had and sent it to him. Well, I got a bonus in return! What a nice guy.

    winch wiring

    I am trying to build in some protection on wiring in a winch to the battery. Really no way to protect this with a fuse. A winch draws so much under load that there is no protection from a fuse. I was thinking about a on / off switch much like a battery on a boat. Or perhaps a solenoid with a...

    Success

    Did an f 150 knuckle / disk brake swap on my 71 this week. All went well, no real problems. I had done a hydro boost install some time ago. Problem was with disk in the back and drum in the front the brakes were way too touchy. The f 150 swap fixed all that. I was surprised that the bronco...

    soft tops and winter

    In the frozen north, is it possible to keep a soft top on in winter? Will the cold crack or rip it as you drive or even sitting? I would think Ice would be bad too.

    rock auto sucks balls

    Needed 2 power steering pumps, ordered them. installed both. One did not work properly. I go do the on line bitch process. End result is since I installed the defective part I can return the part but will only be credited the core value, because it is now "used" I'm going to bitch more tomorow

    Broke it.

    Well looks like I broke the d44 under the red and white racer. Not that it had not been hammered on but I was stupid. I was pulling a stump ( hurricane) out to the street for trash pick up. I got to the end of the drive and made a sharp turn in reverse on dry pavement. POP, Shudder. Crap I...
