Bronco Guru
that is a nice bronco! I live near cherokee nc but am in memphis right now. if i wasnt id meet up with ya
Has anyone else got the theme song to Smokey and The Bandit stuck in their head as we're cheering him on? Have you thought of people lining the streets with banners and signs? Truckers honking their horns, pictured Cletus T. Justice slapping Jr.? ;D
I hope somebody told him about Bronco Driver magazine. Like somebody said earlier, it would make a great feature.
Here ya go! Too bad someone couldn't sticky this so everytime you opened this thread it played the song.

I won't spill the beans as to what, but somebody's having some fun shopping at the Duff Tuff store today!!! ;D
What else could that thing need?
I have to say this is a great thread, makes me want to meet all of you guys that I haven't met.
Just had to make a correction ,it is Sheriff BUFORD T. Justice .

The goddamm Germans got nothin' to do with the situation !
Well maybe Herman already knew, but I for one didn't. Thanks a Bunch;D, just wish I would have knowen that before my 600 mile road trip last Weekend. I just went out and looked and low and behold it was closed. I couldn't figure out why one vent had a screen in it and the other didn't.
Damn Newbie'sThanks again. Any other hidden gems I should know about?

Hah! It's all in the timing sometimes, eh? Sorry this didn't come up before, even if it's not the greatest vent system in the world, any air moving around in that cab is a good thing!
Hmm, speaking of hidden gems, that other comment about "pull-for-heat" does seem to come up a lot these days. Well, except for all you Eastern blokes melting to your seats that is.
Other than warning about hidden rust, failing electrical connections, insufficient grounding schemes, tired old rear wheel bearings and gas fumes in the cab, I can't think of anything.
Though there are those interesting license plate features. Wondering about the flip-up rear plate? Put the tailgate down to haul a long load and just flip it up for staying legal. The two holes in the bottom edge of the front grille are a good place to mount one if you are running a snow-plow or PTO winch.
Then there are those funny little brackets that some Broncos have on the passenger side rear fender. Goes back to the old open tailgate thing. How to hold the swing-away carrier out of the way.
All depends on what year your Bronco is, what options were ordered, and what wasn't taken off by the preceding 33 1/3 PO's.
That should keep you wondering until we get NY's next update. Hmmm, CST/EST notwithstanding, wonder if he's still at Duff's being outfitted?

Oh man what a day!!! Came to Duffs at 8 AM and did not leave till 12AM. Note they are both AM. I had an awesome day. Learned a hell of a lot about the EB and with every passing minute I am liking that Bronco more and more. There was almost nothing that did not get touched. Not that there was anything major on it, just tweaking. Yesterday I burned the crap out of my hands opening the hood and messing with that stupid rod which would inevitably get stuck so I can get burned some more. But that part is gone now. My baby got struts today and I am lovin that. New bumpers front and rear as well as a tire carrier and a gas tank & cooler holder. She also received rock sliders on the sides. Everything in black and man does it look good. Everything is 1/4inch steel so its going nowhere anytime soon. The attention to detail on their products is amazing. I snapped just about 100 pictures and they are uploading right now. Internet connection kinda sucks so its taking some time. Rest assured they will get posted tonight. I cant thank the guys over at Duffs enough for their hospitality and generosity for putting up with me lurking in the shop. The only problem I encountered is that my list of wants grew exponentially today. Got to take some of the duff rigs out and man they are awesome. Anybody who thought the 4 link kits they have are not stable enough for the road is dead wrong. I am happy with my setup tuckering along the highway at an average of 75 and taking it up to 85 at times, but man do I wish i had the stability of the 4 link setup they have. Ill go more into detail on that a bit later. Let me check on the pics first ;D Be right back with them....
