    Bump, Bump, Bump

    Yeah - I hadn't factored in the cost of shipping. Good point. Obviously with WH, I can actually drive out and pick it up! Other than "Shipping costs", are there specific things you like about the Duff Bumper? TR-

    Bump, Bump, Bump

    Hey All - I am in the market for a replacement rear bumper with an integrated Tire Carrier and Jack Carrier. I've been eyeing the prerunner bumpers on both Wildhorses and Tom's. I also like the integrated Jack shown on Duff's. Any suggestions/pics on what you've seen done....? Thanks! TR-

    side View Mirrors

    I have never really liked the standard/routine choices I see on early bronco's. The stock mirrors are small and seem out of place. I don't like the larger folding mirrors for all the reasons stated. I have actually been considering some of the Mustang mirrors. I've been looking at some of...

    Pre-Runner Bumpers w/Tire Rack - Pics wanted!

    Hey all! I am looking to replace my rear bumper on my 1970 Bronco Sport. I would like to get the spare tire mounted to the new bumper - so have been eye-balling the Pre-runner bumpers with a tire rack at Wildhorses4x4 and Tom's Bronco. If anyone has one of these, pics would be appreciated...

    Sound deadener?

    I used the 3/8" thick Dynamat (may have been the Dynapad product - been about 4 years). I covered the floorboards in the front, bed, rear wheel wells, and put a strip in each door. I also installed a new set of Bronco Carpets (thanks to Tom's Bronco) over the Dynamat. This made a HUGE...

    What did I miss....?

    So, I had a new set of valve covers installed - fresh from Tom's. All looks good.... However.... (scratching my head) There is no connection for vacuum line to the new breather cap....? What did I miss....? Here is the valve covers...

    1969 bronco seats which ones

    For what its worth.... I dropped a set of Audi A4 grey leather seats into my bronco. I was able to mount them to the existing tracks with a little work. I picked up the A4 seats because they "sit low", both the driver & passenger seat have under-seat storage, they are grey leather, and...

    Current status is "weekend warrior" rig. ; > Its not a "daily driver", but what I use on the weekends for all my hobbies - Mtn Biking, Snow Skiing, Beach, Dog Hauler, Home Depot, etc. I have previously upgraded the wiring harness (Painless 22), disc brakes on the rear, SS brake lines, new...

    Decisions, Decisions, Decisions...

    I previously upgraded the wiring with a Painless 22 circuit system. I'm quite happy with it and everything works great. Having said that, just looking for both improved functionaity as well as a little of the "wow" factor. I am also looking at possibly adding some fog lights. (I don't...

    Hardtop Quick Release...?

    Has anyone come up with a better design for securing/removing the hardop? The standard design (as you all know) can be summarized as "screwed" - or maybe bolted in place is better. ; > There are bolts across the top of the windshield and several down each of the bedrails. Has anyone...

    Runs for ~45min

    The Davis Unified Ignition (DUI) is a bit larger and clunky than I would like. If this was a "standard" set up, it acts like a bad ignition coil. Since its an integrated unit, I haven't pulled it apart. I am thinking about replacing the "electronics" module and the cap. So, trying to find...

    Runs for ~45min

    It is a carbureted - an edelbrock. I've gone down the vapor lock idea. Gas flow is okay. Because I've read/heard so much about "spare modules" due to frequent failure, that's why I'm thinking it might be the DUI Distributor. I am not sure if I can get "just the cap - which includes the...

    Runs for ~45min

    Hey All! So, I am having a sporadic problem and looking to the guru's for some suggestions. I've owned/driven the Bronco over 3000 miles, however, recently, its started acting up. Specifically, there are 2 symptoms (these may be separate issues)... Primary Issue: After ~45min of street...

    Bumpers & Jacks

    Hey all... Thanks for the various questions/suggestions. A few more details.... I currently have 30" tires on the rig and no lift (no body lift and no suspension lift) which is fine for my purposes. However, even with the larger tires, the standard bottle jack just is a bit too small. This...

    Bumpers & Jacks

    I have 30's on it right now. I use a standard bottle jack - but looking for a more suitable replacement. I took a look at the FSB forum. I think the design would work, but (believe it or not), I try to keep the "rattles" to a minimum. As such, I'd be concerned about constaint "rattling" from...

    Bumpers & Jacks

    Hey - Thanks for the note. I have 30's on right now and no lift. I do have a standard bottle jack, but...it's just too short. As such, I'm open to suggestions on jacks. I could use a "hi-boy", but (as noted) storage is an issue. I was in SW Portland for the last 5 years - between Hillsdale...

    Bumpers & Jacks

    Hey All... Looking for recommendations. The PO of my bronco stripped off the tire rack. When I bought the bronco, he pointed to a pile of parts and said "that's it... those are yours too...". Well.... time passes by. When I finally get to looking at installing the spare tire rack, it...

    NorCal Restoration recommendation

    Hey All! We're packing the bags and heading back to the Bay Area. Fortunately, the move includes the Bronco! ; > I'm looking for recommendations in NorCal for a reputable restoration shop. My engine, transmission, suspension, and interior done (or as "done" as any Bronco gets). The next...
