Let us know about the 1" lift when you get it on. I'm looking at that myself. Have fun with the toys!

Sweet! Congrats on your purchases and post pics when you're done. I'm guessing you don't have a wife or kids to eat up your refund?

I have a wife and a 13yr. This is the first time in years SOMETHING wasn't waiting to gobble it up.

I installed that 1" body lift from WH in my '68, the job went really well, but it was a little difficult to get the old body mounts out though. I had no problems after installing the 1" body lift, but I did have to adjust the clutch linkage.
I just received my new "Rock Crawler PS kit" today from "West Coast Bronco parts" and I'm going to try and tackle that tomorrow.
This cold weather and my job just doesn't give me much time for the Bronco these days.
Gotta love adding new parts to our toys though!
good luck and have fun!

I don't have the stock T-case, I used the NP205 T-case behind the NP435 tranny I installed. I had to do a lot of modifying to make things work.
Had to make a cross member and all, but all turned out well.

But with the 1" body lift I don't see any need for any mods on the T-case shifter.
