    Everyday driver?

    My 76'(351,c4) used to heat up anytime I stopped...at a light, the drive thru, whatever. I installed an aluminum radiator I got from Toms Bronco. Now, 90-95* days with A/C on it tops at 190*. I dont even look at the guage as often. It was well worth the $450.

    Everyday driver?

    Three years ago I sold my cushy, plush, loaded F250 Powerstroke 4x4 becuase it had 275,000 miles(Still looked and drove perfect). I went truck shopping. I hated the idea of a truck payment, and nothing really caught my eye. Then the brainstorm, I had always wanted an EB..... I'll look around...

    New Seats for Bronco

    I would say they are about 1/2-3/4 " higher than stock. Of course my stock seats were worn out, so probably close to stock. I did have to cut the brackets front and rear to lower them. I'm 6' and have no problem seeing stoplights etc.

    New Seats for Bronco

    I got this great pair of seats at Carlisle, PA (Ford Nationals). They came out of a 2000ish Ranger. I installed them this weekend. I had to do a little fab,cutting to get them to work. They have a flip up console(opens for storage)w/drink holder. Really could sit a small third person in the...

    C-4 Thoughts And Advice Needed

    I bought one of Luke Jackson's C-4s and a 3500 stall converter from him off Ebay around Christmas time. I had a bellhousing issue(not his problem) that he really helped me to work out. The tranny is not in my Bronco, but in my '65 Falcon. It has performed flawlessly. I recommend him. When the...

    Hedman coating Question..

    I installed the Hedman Elite on my '76(351) with no problems. It took a couple of hours. These have Hedman's "thermal coating". They have been on for two and a half years and still look and perform great! I think I got them from Jegs.

    low beam headlights

    I chased a similar problem. My Bronco would blow out the low beams. After a lot of replacing parts and grounding I found the main wiring harness at the firewall had worn the casing off some wires....they were grounding on the firewall. If all else fails look at your wiring.

    Lift gate prop rods

    I've still got the stock, loose, loud prop rods on my lift gate. Are the new style hydrolic ones much of an improvement? Does it cut out some of the rattles?

    Dream Garage Done!!!!!

    Someone wanted outside pics of the garage. Here they are its very plain, simple and easy! Also included a shot of the Falcon. As far as layout goes I think you really need to think of how you will use the garage. Mine is a great workplace as well as a hangout so I have tons of cabinets to store...

    Dream Garage Done!!!!!

    The building is a pole barn, 10' ceiling, 8" thick concrete floor. T1-11 siding, metal roof (to match the roof on the house). The epoxy takes 24 hours to dry for foot traffic, 7 days until you can drive on it. The Falcon is a '65 Hardtop 289 orginal car. I bought it last Dec. Someone had...

    Dream Garage Done!!!!!

    Hey BRONKEN I forgot to add - you just brush in the corners, and roll the rest, and really no odor. It comes with great instructions, and cleaner for the floor.

    Dream Garage Done!!!!!

    BRONKEN - I bought it at Lowes. One "kit" covers around 250 sq ft, and cost around $60. I used about 3.5 "kits". It is a two part epoxy that has blue, black, grey and white sprinkles you can throw in the paint when its wet...that really adds to it I think. I added just a very small amount of...
