I'd like to know what everyone's using or recommends to use for nozzles? My blaster takes the "cone" shaped nozzles (not a deadmans handle). The nozzles are ceramic and work great but don't last very long. I have to buy them in a 4 pack and in that pack are 4 different sizes. Is there...

I scored a 5.8L truck lower today (and upper) for free complete with fuel rails and injectores. The upper kind of came with the deal.....free is free right. Needs cleaning and the fuel rails have some rust. I don't plan on using the upper so it will be trashed but is the TB good for...

When I bought my bronco it was already cut and and some point did have flares on it. It has all the holes for the rivits. Looking to get flares back on it and worried the flares I order will not fit the opening and the already drilled holes for the rivets will be a problem. Looking at War or...

You guys know what this is, it's the plastic bottle beneath a metal cover on the inside of the driver’s side quarter panel. My rig was missing this and as a result, my tanks pressureize during the summer and exspell gas so I'm trying to get this hooked up. Bought a tank and cover now trying...

Back several years ago I painted my rig flat OD green from rattle cans. it looked real nice but the hood is starting to show the old color (gray primer) again. I would just touch it up with a rattle can but the brand I used isn't around anymore and I'm out of the extra cans I bought. What's...

My 351W swap is a few months off which is to say next summer but it’s never too soon to start getting things ready and I’m all about having a game plan before starting a project. I’ve done tons of reading on this (maybe too much) yet I haven’t been able to identify the perfect fit so to speak...

I did a search and found this question has been ask before but it’s been a year or more since the thread was active. The suggestion was to ditch the tank. Sounds good but I went through all the trouble of adding it so deleting it just don’t set well. How or is anyone getting around the aux...

What's the best route to take on this. I know some offer a cage that will work with the bench seat but is there a clear "winner" to go with? The bench I have will be getting covered later this month and the winter project (it will be here before you know it) is to get it installed and while...

So I’m not two full weeks removed from my summer project and I’m already looking forward to my winter project. I’ve done some searching and can’t seem to find any information on the best foam to use when recovering the front bench seat. Heck, I can’t find any seat form for the BFB. Found a...

I’ve read several threads on the topic of M/C’s and what to do when doing a disk conversion and it’s not working for me. I’m in the last stage of a total Dana 44 rebuild and Ford disk conversion using 79 bronco parts. I'm back on teh road if I can get this sorted out. I removed the residual...

My summer long project is coming to an end however this project will not end without one last frustrating issue. I need brake hoses. What are you guys using on this conversion? I’m using 79 Bronco Knuckle out parts on my 74. I thought I had this covered from reading the tech article...

Does anyone know if the threads on 79 Bronco/F150 tie rods and sleeve are the same size threads as the the tie rod and sleeve on a 74 Bronco? I know the 74 Bronco tie rods are 1 inch 18 threads. Trying to make my own center section out of my old left hand tie rod. Tim

I’ve got several things working against me on this project the main one is getting the correct parts from the local parts stores but that’s another story. I’m not understanding the hose to caliper hookup. Why does the banjo fitting have a ridge on it? Does the ridge go up or down? Seems the...

Putting the finishing touches on my All Ford Disk Conversion (disk/drum) this weekend (I hope) and have been reading that some use a proportioning valve and some use the H-Block. I’ve searched and read many threads on the subject of pros and cons of each. Seems price is one of the big factors...

I’ve did some reading and conflicting info has me asking the experts here how it’s “supposed” to be done. I have a 2.5 suspension lift and am looking to add an adjustable track bar. I’m in the middle of rebuilding the complete front end (Dana 44) new gears, bearings, seals, disk brake...

I'm in the middle of converting to front disk brakes. I bought the parts years ago and never put them on. To tell the truth, the power drums were doing just fine but I upgraded gears so I figured while it was disassembled, why not add the disks. I got "the knuckles out" (off a 79 bronco) from...

I have a set of dust shields but their in real bad shape. I’m guessing their original to the 79 Bronco I got the other disk brake parts from however they look different than the ones I see for sale by the venders. How many of you guys run the dust shields? Is there a benefit to running them...

Well I finished up my D44 rebuild (new gears, carrier, bearings seals etc) and I’m now in the process of putting on the drum to disk brake conversion parts (79 bronco knuckles out) I’ve had sitting around for years. Mounted the knuckles (new ball joints installed) last night and went to look...

Sorry, bad post. Tim

I knocked out my old pinion races today fully expecting to find shims behind them and I didn't find any. Shouldn't there be shims under the races? What am I missing other than a clue? Is there a good starting point or suggested amount of shims under the races inner and or outer? Tim
