    That is really nice! as a FSJ fan (Daily is a 1970, J2000 Gladiator) I'll be watching.

    Ford 9 inch rear differential guru’s

    That’s an interesting one. It’s a really beefy looking case. My assumption is pressed together opposite the ring gear side. Potentially making it nonservicable. I first thought it was a Power Trax or a TORQ unit but that would be a negative.

    Upside down club

    I’m a full fledged repeat offender member, just never in a bronco, some how…. I hope to not but I’ve been pressing my luck for a very long time. Some where there’s a pic of mine wheels up and me slamming reverse, @NGABronco may have taken it. Here’s some vintage footage of my antics that...

    Factory steering stop alternative.

    I’ve welded stops in place before

    Track bar / drag link geometry

    @davisjstone, @DirtDonk is correct. The easy solution for your issue is a drop bracket for the track bar. I still prefer a riser but with your street only use it will make it drive well and not be expensive or too difficult to install. The best option would be to convert to the tie rod to the...

    Track bar / drag link geometry

    The different lengths being parallel makes sense, the arcs are not working against each other, even though they are different arcs their differences are far less than if they were in different plains fighting each other. Been a dozen or more years since I drew all that out on the floor seeing...

    Drop spindle Dana 60 build

    Me too, I have a very low member number, can’t remember off hand but is only 4 digits. Haven’t logged on in many years. Really lost interest after meta turned the format into FB.

    Track bar / drag link geometry

    You are on a good track, and it is worth exploring, and if I was staring at it in person probably would have already gone there. Your drag link is already several inches longer than stock, is currently packaged anb everything fits. There is no reason to not shorten the drag link, weld tabs to...

    What have you done to your Bronco today?

    Love the warning label😎😂

    Track bar / drag link geometry

    We’ve discussed this before and are on the same page. My brain despises understeer, so I tend to prefer a rear sway bar over a front one. Understeer has no in motion correction other than to slow down, which is most people’s natural reaction to things going wrong and perfect for the masses...

    Track bar / drag link geometry

    yes that would be it exactly. Jeeps are worse than bronco's/F150's. Jeeps drag link is inserted horizontal to the ground causing it to roll the tierod back and forth from the pressure from the drag link. Ford has them on a 45 degree upward slant so the drag link pushes/pulls inline with the tie...

    Track bar / drag link geometry

    Your schedule sounds as much fun as mine LOL When you return, what is the distance from the floor to the center of the bolt at the frame, and the same at the axle? how far apart are the upper and lower bolt on the axle. It does have some nice looking fab work with robust parts.

    Track bar / drag link geometry

    I’ll try to carefully tread on the radius arm topic, my gut response many here would find offensive. My goal is never to tell anyone how to build their rig, I will strongly suggest, but never dictate. I want to be educational and will never tell anyone their ideas or what they have built is...

    Track bar / drag link geometry

    Yes that would be correct. I’d like to see a side pic at ride height down low like this that I can see the lower control arm orientation to the ground. We’re looking at it, let’s make sure there are not other glaring areas of concern.

    Track bar / drag link geometry

    Little more time today LOL I'll help @ntsqd here's a link to the Ruff Stuff Cure Double shear is overrated. All of my stuff should have fallen apart, burned and disappeared by now. On my bronco and buggy all of the steering is single shear, including the track bars. I've done some things in...

    Yeah I saw it on Pirate back when it was new 🤣

    Track bar / drag link geometry

    The wristed front suspension is a bit of an adder to the issue if your on the brakes, it will lift the driver’s side, not a deal breaker just something to keep in mind. There’s room to gain on the axle side of the track bar, remember 1” there and 3” on the other side is a 73% improvement. It is...

    Honestly that is the only one I’ve ever seen from Atomic. Like the creativity and the machine work

    Leaking 9"

    I’ve welded them full of oil but can be hit or miss (usually at the race track) best results just drain the oil clean very well and weld it up. This is a good time to pitch using lube locker gaskets. Unbolt the 3rd enough to drain the oil, repair, retighten the nuts and refill with oil. I have...

    Dumb question….. seal on the filter? I assume you’ve not been in the pan, just throwing out some of the silly things I’ve seen.
