    OEM locking hub fitment and O-ring question

    I had similar issue when I was taking one of the hubs out that I was troubleshooting. I just sprayed little WD40 and wiggled it out with a screw driver. What helped me when i put it back in is first tighten all the allen bolts first then give a little tap with a wooden block around it and goes...

    Tire size for stock 1977 Bronco

    the "stock" "stock" tires were close to 28x8.5/8.8ish so you can go with 30x9.5x15 for a 'little' bigger. Ideally i would recommend to continue 235/75R15 which are close to 28.9x9.25

    Jay Leno Law in CA is now signed fully (Smog exemption up to 1985)

    For me, if i wasn't getting a Gen 1 bronco , I rather get a f250 truck from post 1977 instead of a big bronco - IMO they are hideous - no offense. Ford really instead of sticking to their guns to continue to make practical broncos they went after mimicking larger chevy K5s.

    1966 wiper blades

    Can someone point me where i can get wiper blades that fit stock 1966 wiper arms? I have the 66 wiper arms already. Heard the design changed in 68/69 and also if we get aftermarket wiper blades from WH/Toms/Dennis you also need to get matching wiper arms they wont fit stock wiper arms- is that...

    So it avoids the pop on sudden deceleration- something new to learn everyday.

    Jay Leno Law in CA is now signed fully (Smog exemption up to 1985)

    True. It just opens up 76-85 vehicles to skip SMOG test requirement if they choose to register as collector vehicle and only use for car shows etc. They will still need to meet that year's motor emission requirements(which get stricter through years) which don't apply for pre 1975 gas vehicles...

    Jay Leno Law in CA is now signed fully (Smog exemption up to 1985)

    :) Exactly. Thats a silent statement. I always stayed away from 76,77s now that opened up for me.

    Jay Leno Law in CA is now signed fully (Smog exemption up to 1985)

    Thought I would post here for anyone that doesn't follow the "off topic lounge" as this is something notable for CA residents https://abc7.com/post/gov-newsom-si...mpting-more-classic-cars-smog-tests/19836833/ The Jay Leno Law has now been fully approved by Governor Newsom. It allows vehicles...

    H4 Headlight diagnostics on Centech harness help needed

    My hunch tells me something to do with the switch. As a first test, try removing it with dash in place and see if it works and then touch to dash and see if it works - if it works before touching dash and doesnt when touching to dash something is pinching inside your switch

    How to search a tech conversation

    Coyotes operate efficient at 2000-2200 rpm for cruise. 4;11 puts you at 2017 rpm i your 6th gear (overdrive). So go with 4;10.

    Stall…vapor lock??

    Given the changes were fuel pump and filter prior to which car was working good, I betting something is wonky with pump. May be its too high pressure which is a common issue with mechanical pumps when the. go bad. When it overpowers the carb it shuts off becoming too rich. Do you smell gas...

    Stall…vapor lock??

    Is your fuel filter transparent, do you see fuel in it when it halts? is your fuel pressure always 6? can you have someone look at pressure when you are revving it. These manual fuel pumps are sometimes bad even the new ones.
