So i did the springs and shocks in the front and rear shocks like last October so its been a while and they should ahve settled. I really think its the rear leafs.

Correct yes the engine is installed on this truck. Still planning to measure just haven't had time to get to the shop. Will plan to circle back here.

Yeah I may have to give them a call. I appreciate that insight Jonathan! I replaced the rear shocks, just not the leafs. When I bought the truck it was supposed to be running and driving (shocker it wasn't). So slowly but surely I have been rebuilding everything from the engine back. Saved the...

Appreciate the responses here! I measured today (assuming I took the right measurement from the location described above) and its around 8" in the front. Now I am starting to think maybe it is the wrong springs that were sent by TBP.. I will go out tomorrow again and take another measurement and...

@m_m70 that is correct, all I have replaced is bushings, the front shocks and springs, and the rear shocks. I have not replaced leaf springs or anything else. I agree it looks high, I wonder if they had given me the wrong springs or something and they are actually quite taller in the front than...

Hey there, I have a 1971 Bronco and I am running the Tom's Offroad stock suspension components. I replaced the shocks and springs in both the front and rear. The only thing I haven't replaced yet is the rear lead springs. I have noticed after the suspension has settled that the truck sags pretty...

Appreciate the replies! Just building off some of the responses here. Interior: - Came without door panels - Has off white colored headliner on the hard top - Steering wheel is black rubber with satin/chrome ring in the center and the chrome horn ring - Chrome bezels on tail lights and...

Got a question and curious to get some thoughts from the group! Long story short, I have a 1971 Bronco and there is a lot that leads to me to think its a sport model and a lot that makes me think its a base model trim. The reason for asking is the previous owner shaved the emblems and filled...

I currently am running the stock steering wheel and on factory ride height at the moment. Most of the suspension underneath is probably the original equipment so it might be the stabilizer or a combo of old parts. I will take a look through and consider those above recommendations. No way of...

Hi all, Purchased my 71 and FINALLY with the help of a bunch of you it runs and drives... well sort of.. I have always thought to myself that power steering would be the next step or power brakes. I figured I could deal with the manual steering for a while until I made the switch by my...

Trying to post some videos but not sure why they wont post? Maybe becuase they are vimeo links?

Hey guys, First off thanks so much for all of the suggestions, super helpful. I pulled the distributor and set the engine to 10 degrees BTC. Reseated the distributor and plugged all the wires in and she started almost instantly. I am guessing the guy who had previously installed this new...

REALLY appreciate that! Don't at all feel as it was belittling or patronizing. Learning as much as I can every day about this truck, it is my first Ford. Will certainly give all of this a try. A local shop owner told me his old 72 used to skip a tooth on the timing chain so I wont rule that out...
