Help! Working on my 68 Bronco. Was doing the WH disc brake conversion and the driver front hub would not release. It had seized to the shaft. Seals were all melted and grease was like a rock so it must have gotten hot. To get it off we had to cut it with grinding wheel and unfortunately the outer drive shaft is toast. Dana 30 Front end.
Does anyone know the spicer part number to replace the outer axel?
Need to buy locally (Phoenix) as I leave town on Wednesday.
Thanks in advance.

Sorry to hear of your hassles. Especially while on a tight schedule!
Lots of local Arizona members here on the forum, so hopefully somebody has an answer for you. Or a part.
Could’ve used Randy at Driven Auto in times past, but he’s been shut down the past couple of years. I understand he still has some parts available, or did until recently at least. Hopefully he still does.

Good luck!

If you use Facebook, put out a query on the AZ Classic Bronco FB page and see if someone has one.

EDIT - just texted with Randy and he said he's got ya covered!

Margaritas by the pool? Bounce house for a kid’s birthday? Nursing a sore back and shoulder and skinned knuckles from all the wrenching? Packing for a trip?
All while the Bronco sits covered in the garage, ignored? :)🙄😁😉

Oh, I forgot the honey-do list!
Unless getting the bronco running IS the honey-do list?
