    Posi vs Open: street driven opinions

    I know the difference between the two, but i keep debating what would be "better" in my situation. My bronco is 98% street driven, sunny day, ice cream shop, family, kinda cruisin. I suppose it may see a gravel road from time to time. An open rear diff would be the most economical, correct...

    off the shelf hydraulic clutch?

    call me lazy but i'm not interested in piecing together a kit and i don't have a ton of time to search for parts and visit junkyards. do any of the vendors offer an off the shelf hydraulic kit? something that'll mate to an early bronco bell housing/ ax15 or stock 3speed?

    Steering box Options for my mall crawler

    My box is currently leaking pretty bad on the steering shaft side. It started a little bit after I installed my hydroboost w/saginaw. Did a quick search and folks are recommending a rebuild or something beefier. I'd rather just replace the entire box and start fresh. I don't offroad my...

    3spd won't shift while car is running

    attempted to take the car out for a spin today and quickly discovered that it would not shift into 1,2,3 while the car is running. i can get it into reverse if i slam it in. baffled why it would suddenly not work. it shifts into all gears easily when the car is off. the only thing i can think of...

    Motive Power Bleeder Tips?

    I've always used a power bleeder on my other cars and figured i'd give it a try on the bronco. I haven't had much luck with the speed bleeders. They either don't tighten/seal, or the still leak. I've tried multiple brands too. Perhaps i keep getting bad quality bleeders? I did a little...

    opinions on ax15 or gears next?

    stock 302 with 3speed on the floor here. i'm running 35s with 3.50s. i've asked a few locals and get about equal suggestions in either direction. what would you do next? ax15 swap or 4.56s? cost isn't a deciding factor for me. i figure i'll do both eventually but which swap would you...

    Ford 9" 3rd member: which vendor?

    stock 302 with 3 speed manual, stock gears and 35s. I'm entertaining 4.30 gears... this is a street bronco. I called a few local shops and they all want ~$5k for a ring and pinion swap if I bring the bronco in. That seems a little ridiculous to me so I'm considering a 3rd member from WH...

    Condensation under floor mat

    I'm running the rubber floor mats from our popular vendors. I've started routing my speaker/amp wires. Naturally, I lifted the rubber mat and discovered a decent amount of condensation on the floor boards. Enough that i had a bar metal spot (scratch) that had started to rust already. Whats...

    SOLD Centra Pod speaker box

    i've decided to go another route. these are originally made for a CJ or YJ but if you flip it upside down it'll fit on our flat transmission channel. this will fit 5.25" speakers but i planned to shave the hole a tad bigger to fit my 6.5" speakers. i paid $89, now selling and it's still new...

    Rear Stakes in Hardtop Necessary?

    Unfortunately, my bolts were so seized that they broke right off when removing the rear stakes from my hardtop. I honestly was gonna run without them, but then started reading a few posts where folks stated their rear fender rails started bowing out. Just curious how many of ya'll run the...

    Rear seats with seat belts?

    any recommendations for rear seats with built in seat belts? i need to come up with a seat belt solution for the rear since my daughter will likely be in a booster soon and a lap belt won't work. im running the stock rear bench at the moment which works fine for their harness style car seats.
