Does anyone know where I can find the write up by Jon Hanna on how to do the flip flop glove box door modification.

Here's a slick one from the BroncOhio website.

Or you could do what my PO did...crush the roll bar with a BFH so that the glovebox door clears. %)

Or you can do what I did :-X cut about 1" off the far right of the door... I shouldn't drink & work on the Bronco so much... :'( Seemed like the thing to do at the time.

I cut the speaker and glove box together , then cut the 2 apart and swapped them. Not too bad, but required some body work. I wish I had known about the sliding hinge...oh well ;D

What's a "Gov"? Perhaps the "Gov"enator?

Have you considerd the tuffy "Gov" box? I love mine (can actually secure stuff in) and it clears roll bars.

I did this except that I also applied heat at the same time. Made a nice flat area on the rollbar next to the glove box so it would clear. I've since won a Tuffy one in a raffle so the flat spot is meaningless now.
