Good call - just submitted an inquiry to Duff - will see what they say. Also, BronCowie, great thoughts on loose-fitting and then using machine thread screws/nylocs. Did you just use like M5 Stainless Allen button head bolts, or what was your preference on them? Any ideal on ideal length?

Update on this - ordered the kit as it sounds like everything's generally a bolt-up application. Stoked to fix this mess!

Hey again ya'll! Continued progress (or at least planned progress at the moment!) on the '68. I've got a huge set of parts on order, but one of the last items is which flares to do an ideally seamless upgrade of the flares. Here's what I've got currently - old, cracked, busted flares. Duff...

Good lookin’ out. I’ve got to call them in the morning to ask a. Few other pre-order questions and will double check 👌🏻. Stoked to get this setup working right! Thanks again for your input on this!

This is the one I’m thinking is correct: https://tomsoffroad.com/parts/66-77-ford-bronco-289-302-v8-complete-power-steering-pump-kit

Paul, the VIN from the '72 does indeed have a "P" in it! Is indeed just a frame. Right on :thumbs-up:

OK awesome! Thank you so much, Steve! I'll probably go with the Sag pump setup. Sounds like with the right box, the pump and bracket, and the soft lines I'll be off to the races. Will see if I can repurpose one or two of the joints on there as needed. Excellent!

Hey again ya'll! Here's the deal: - Reviving and restoring our '68 Bronco. Hasn't run in over 2 decades. - It has a really hacked-in power steering setup - Motor is a Mexican/HiPo 302 - I have a donor steering box (and original reservoir if needed). Sent the donor box (which is from a '72...

Thank for your input on this guys! I'm still split on just pulling the trigger on a newer suspension system, since I'm going to be in there anyhow and would hate to redo everything, and then end up having to re- redo the suspension if it does ride rough. Just trying to save $ though. Will see...

@toddz69 thanks for the input - definitely looked pretty hacked up. Looks like it used the stock holes to mount though(?) which is why I thought maybe it was a later Bronco unit that was grafted in or something.

And in other news, does anyone know what the heck is up with this hacked-in power steering setup?? Where it might be from? Was this a common mod to do it like this (through the inner fender) or did the previous owner totally just hack something random in here? Here are photos:

Right on - gotta keep things interesting :D. OK, so the rear is at maybe 8/8.5" off the axle tube itself (not the perch), and the front is at ~7" to the perch or ~8.75" to the axle tube. Does that translate to the rear generally having a ~2-2.5" lift, and the front a [somewhat sagged] ~2" or...

DirtDonk, what are you, some sort of Early Bronco scientist!?! Amazing info!! Thank you - I'll take a look this morning and see what I can find out. Also very curious about the front springs, and this is exactly the info I need to check!

Thanks for the responses! I was also looking sideways at these after looking up many photos of stock leafs.... I'm hoping for 2.5" of lift total, running 31 x 10.5 KO2's on stock wheels with stock hubcaps. That said...maybe I'm already there?? I've been debating either a) getting 2.5" of lift...

Hey all! Now that the title saga is over, on to actually fixing up the '68! I've got the rear axle out, and as you can see here, am staring at the leaf springs. I've looked up photos, and it really seems like these have one more leaf than the photos of stock springs I've seen. Can anyone...

Just wanted to update this thread, and say a huge thank you for each of your replies. Some info that proved useful for now, and some new info I'll keep for later for sure. (such as hiring someone if needed in the future). This time around, it so happened that the lady I ended up with...just put...
