    New "BRONCO" hoodie

    Which raises the question: What is more disgusting, a picture of a Jeep with the word "Bronco" or a picture of a Bronco with the word "Jeep?"

    Fuel sending unit lock ring tool

    That's great that you were able to make one. I got one from WH recently and it makes the process much more controlled. But something has changes with the seals. I have done these sender unit seals many times, slapped one on and thought nothing about it. Lately it is a struggle. Multiple attempts...

    77 smog equipment value?

    The air pump in the center of the picture has great value....to me. Wish I had a good working replacement.

    Spare Tire Carrier Latch mounting holes

    The last time I did this I simply installed the hinges and carrier, attached the latch to the carrier in its normal position centered on the stainless steel striker sleeve, and then pushed the assembly up to the tailgate and marked the holes on the latch assembly. Be sure to use the backing...

    Rims - anyone know a vendor for these

    Many of us wold love a set of those wheels. But unless you have way, way more money than you know what to do with, you don't want to know who makes them. Someone else will chime in with the details here shortly.

    Sets 1” higher on right than left sides

    You're one of the lucky ones! For many of us there are other factors in play, apparently. Congratulations. PS: We hate you.:mad:

    Stock key blank

    Yes it is possible to a longer key. Long ago I replaced my factory key with one that has a long shank. It has been great for keeping the keys off the dash. The problem arose whn I tried to put a new ignition and lock set in. The later replacement locks use a different blank that does snot have...

    What are these hardtop holes for?

    Blinds in an early Bronco. Why didn't I think of that for hot days. Just kiddin'.

    Improving over time

    Spot on. Often someone questions whether these can be used for daily drivers. The truth is, once you take care of neglect by previous owners, who did not appreciate that all you need to do is maintenance, the early Bronco becomes very reliable, very stable, and very useful. It's a basic vehicle...

    Bronco stalling on highway and won’t restart.

    From experience two things: Fuel filters and coil. Then all the reasons stated above.

    Recommendations on a brand of mechanical fuel pump that doesn’t suck?

    NAPA is the place for this type of stuff. Top of the line version or suffer the consequences.

    Sets 1” higher on right than left sides

    Heck, our 76 sits 1 inch higher on the driver's side. I have been around long enough to know the drill. C-bushing re-seating, new springs, etc. Nothing fixes it. Pretty much gave up.

    BAT Craziness

    I just saw one on a street corner business lot a little better than the one Dave posted with "$35,000" scrawled across the windshield. Didn't get a picture though.:rolleyes:

    ECM tape?

    Kapton tape, the choice of spacecraft everywhere.

    Twin stick shift knobs

    Since I am keeping a more classic look, I went with WH billet knobs and paired that with a short throw B&M NV3550 shifter. Made my own labels because all the commercial ones are tiny, hard to see, and don't have the right look.

    Bronco with shower on BAT

    Speaking of BAT: Did anyone else see the post from Haggerty today that Broncos defied the recent downward trend in collectable prices this year. They noted that prices were down a bit in the spring but they are back up now.

    Oddesy batteries

    Only use Odyssey batteries. Optima not so much anymore for the aforesaid reasons.

    Upgrades you regret

    2.5 inch suspension and Bilsteins. Like Broncobowsher said of his mod, this took the fun driving out of the picture. All I do is roll, pitch, and yaw my way across the landscape. Feels like driving a boat on choppy water.
