    Replacing a steering wheel (horn issues)

    I don't know about the parts, however I can confirm that is not a '73 column; it is a later model column.

    Body swap to EB chassis

    I think this one is just lifted, but I don't hate the idea of a 4x4 Pinto.

    Broken Oil Sender Extension

    Best of luck! The new sender I got from NAPA read too high. I purchased a Motorcraft branded one from RockAuto and it seems fine. Well, fine for now…

    LMC Bronco Catalog - Lawndart’s truck!

    Hey - thanks!! News to me. I was trying to remember the location of that photo and nothing clicked. I was kayaking with the wife years back (Bronco with kayak on a trailer) and was approached by someone from LMC. Later, they came out, took pics of the Bronco and made the LMC cover in 2017...

    Broken Oil Sender Extension

    Certainly, I over did it :) Thanks for your help. Next time the extension is out, I will likely go that way - thanks. I wanted to go this route, however the one I looked at was 1/8 NPT and the hole in my block is 1/4 NPT. Epilogue Back on the road with 100 miles done. The sender was...

    Broken Oil Sender Extension

    Clean-up and reassembly Cleaned the hole with swabs lightly covered in grease. Chased the treads with a 1/4-18 tap with light grease and swabbed again until clean. Removed dizzy and spun the pump with a drill. Then reassembled everything. I am thinking that I should just drain the oil...

    Broken Oil Sender Extension

    Extraction - round two With not much material left, I decided to make one last Hail Mary attempt at extraction. Went with the largest bit I had - 3/8 drill extractor. I tapped it into the hole and started applying pressure. I think I saw the material turn with the extractor, hopefully not...

    Broken Oil Sender Extension

    I was thinking about this as well. My plan was to eventually carefully vacuum it out with some vacuum hose and prime the engine. I see Melling has these. Do stock 1973 302s have 1/4″ hex shaft or 5/16″ hex shaft?

    Broken Oil Sender Extension

    Thanks guys - a little bummed at the moment. So do you think I should get a couple larger square extractors or has extraction time passed? Or is it drill/ream/pick time? Won't get at it today as I have to work.

    Broken Oil Sender Extension

    Thanks everyone! Extraction - round one It did not go well. The only extractors I could find locally where spiral. I started small and they would get a good bite, but eventually break loose. I stepped up in size a few times. Once it seemed it was coming out, but I think the extractors where...

    Broken Oil Sender Extension

    Thanks everyone! I had to work today, so no progress. There is an approx 3/16" hole in the extension and the piece still in the block. I am hoping to use that without drilling. I'll try in the tomorrow AM and report.
