We always see the upgrades that people wish they did sooner or dream about doing. But what about the upgrade you wish you wouldn’t have done now in hindsight. What’s an upgrade you haven’t been happy with?

Bump

Are you running a carb or fuel injection? You can use it you just might have to change out the front accessories and other bits.

I run a Morrflate compressor with a 4 way hose for airing up and down. It is pricey but I hate sitting at the beginning or end of a trail airing up or down. It will do all of 4 of my 37” tires in about 5 minutes airing up from 15psi to 40 psi. Airing down is only a couple minutes. This is the...

What about cutting part of the inner fender well out and possibly a hood scoop to increase air flow?

You could try using a 180 degree thermostat? How old is your water pump?

Not sure how much it would help but you could drop the coolant/water to 50/50 mix instead. Water is much better at cooling than antifreeze.

From what I’ve seen and could be wrong, they are the same from 1999 to now. I’d try and get a newer one though but that’s just me.

A popular option is the bottle jack from super duty trucks. It’s a mechanical bottle jack and quite compact. It should easily lift an EB!

You’re a few decades to late

Found a vintage license plate topper from Harold’s Club which was an old Casino here in town. It was active from 1935 to 1995 before finally closing its doors. The plate topper is from the 60’s or 70’s. I think I’ll just run it on the front like this without a front plate.

Hey Paul, is there any chance you could check in on this? @DirtDonk

I would suggest converting the front to disk brakes. A capable mechanic or if you’re up to the task could do it. The vendors sell complete kits and would greatly improve your braking.

Sounds like you’ll be just fine then! I’d be pro active about all maintenance considering these are ~50 year old vehicles.

What shape is your bronco in? Is it fully restored with a coyote? Or is it an original truck that’s been used? If it’s the first I’d have flat bed towing coverage, if it’s the latter I’d still have flat bed towing coverage and a basic set of tools in the back.

Did you recently replace the starter?

Your Bronco looks great! I would definitely just keep driving it and do one thing at a time.
