    Wild Horses tube door striker post project.

    I did this project today. Maybe it will be useful to someone else. I have had the Wild Horses tube doors for a few years and in my opinion, they are the best looking and functioning tube doors available. I have mine on removable hinges. Anyway, they come with replacement door striker bolt...

    Steering issues on 74 Sport (need help)

    On mine, going back to the OEM size steering wheel (OEM power steering) made a huge difference in that oversteer feeling (the darting around sensitivity you mentioned) I am sure there are other issues you are dealing with as others have said, but the steering wheel is not something to overlook.

    Tuner or pedal commander

    I have a pedal commander on my 17 Raptor, which today I put into the dealer for turbo coolant lines leak work not related to the pedal commander, Anyway, post covid this Ford dealer doesn't do loaners anymore, so they gave me a ride to Enterprise to try and rent a car. Being Dec 26th the only...

    Wiring harness grounding question

    I also have a fiberglass tub, but this works for you too. This is an example of a bus bar available. I put one in my engine bay and ran the ground to the engine block ground. Its cleans up all the random places you ground to and no drilling after you install it. I also have one under my dash...

    No turn signal or brake lights.

    Mine are the same size and same flasher module for both turn signals and hazards (1973 with dash mounted hazard). But I do have a Centech wiring harness, but I don't recall the old harness having different sizes, and when you buy replacements, they don't differentiate between the two because...

    What have you done to your Bronco today?

    After my Bronco cost me $220 to be towed by a tow truck 1.5 miles to my house on a Sunday when I took it to get fuel and it wouldn't start....and I sat at the gas pumps for 4 hrs waiting on a tow.... I replaced the OEM style, 26 year old starter with a new gear reduction high torque starter from...

    What have you done to your Bronco today?

    I got this in the mail today. The long-time ago ex-wife found it in a box or something and mailed it to me. The original advertisement in the local Autotrader in 1997 for my Bronco....and yes it was a $1300 Bronco that I had no trouble driving an hour or so after buying it for cash. Yeah, it was...

    What have you done to your Bronco today?

    I don't even know how it would be possible with the dash and radio in :confused:

    What have you done to your Bronco today?

    I put one of these on my old OEM steering wheel back in 2018, and I liked it so much, that since I put a new OEM wheel on recently, I decided to put the same brand leather steering wheel cover back on. I have had great experience with this. Protects the wheel and is less slippy and hot in the SC...

    What have you done to your Bronco today?

    I had good luck with the Flowmaster 70 series 2.25" dual inlet and 3" single outlet. They list the 70s as "Mild tone" I am not sure the difference between the 50 and 70 soundwise, but I sure wouldn't want it any louder, but I run no top and no doors and have a driver side exit.

    Why would both turn signals blink?

    Solved it! 😋 Ok fellas, you are never going to believe this was the cause of the problem the whole time. So everything worked when hazard switch was hanging down, I put it in dash and back to issues, I unplugged harness and turn signals worked again. I used multimeter on the harness, and it...

    Why would both turn signals blink?

    Dammit! after I actually put the hazard switch back into the dash it went back to doing the same nonsense again. everything worked 100% when the switched was wired and just hanging under the dash. So I just pulled the connector out of the back of the switch while the switch is still in the dash...

    Why would both turn signals blink?

    Well I got my new dash hazard switch and just installed it. All the lights and blinkers work perfectly now. $19 part kept my Bronco off the road for all this time.

    Why would both turn signals blink?

    Yeah, that's why this forum will always be better than the Facebook bullshit. I have been busy for months with other stuff and messing with it here and there when I had a chance, pouring over wiring diagrams, etc. I knew I had it all wired correct (well the flasher modules were inverted, but I...

    Why would both turn signals blink?

    Looks like the dash mounted hazard switch is my issue for the turn signals. I just pulled mine out (and the casing broke as I disconnected it from the Centech harness) and with the hazard switch removed, my turn signals now function correctly up front AND the indicators on the dash function as...

    Bronco Height

    7 ft door. When I had 35s with a 3" suspension lift (old school), if I had my Bestop soft top on I would hit the middle bow on the bottom of the garage door itself, which hung down slightly below the door frame. I switched from a hand lifted door to a garage door opener and set the opener to...

    Quality Aftermarket Ignition Switch

    Thanks. Just an update, since I have the motor running now and have used the switch. It works flawlessly. Feels like a truck, not a golf cart and frankly it looks pretty good, unless you demand OEM look. And of course, the switch, being a common Ford part, its fairly reasonably available. And...

    Turn Signal Help

    The ground should be solid, I have both of the flasher modules grounded to a grounding bus panel, not to the dash on a bolt...BUT...I do have both flasher module's ground wires spliced together into the same dedicated ground wire running to that block :unsure: That would seem strange to cause...

    Turn Signal Help

    I am beyond frustrated and need some smarter brains to see what I must be overlooking. I have an early 1973. OEM Auto column, OEM Hazard switch on dash. Centech harness I installed in 1997. Column harness and dash harness do NOT connect via a connector and wires are connected individually. All...
