Link to Pulley!

Pretty neat. I didn't even know that was an option considering the integrated pulley/balancer the explorer came with. I'm assuming this lines up with the other accessories without spacers?

 

[Bronco_69]

yep. fits perfect

the only problem is that you cant see your old timing marks with the explorer set up. I set the balancer at 0* with the old mark and then put some timing tape on the other side to use the 5.0 timing pointer.

 

[Bronco_69]

well it is getting close. I hope to fire it off within a week.

I noticed that the driven aauto pulley is 3 hole, how are you bolting it to the 4 hole 94 5.8 balancer???

no, i am putting it on a new 3 bolt pioneer balancer that i bought for this project. there is no way to make the 4 bolt balancer work and i did not want to rebalance the explorer balancer.

you have to use the explorer balancer, timing cover, and water pump if you want the serp belt to line up.
Unless you have some plan to solve it.

i do have a plan and it is solved. that pulley in combination with the stock 3 bolt balancer lines up perfect. ;D

 

[Ryan]

very cool

 

[Broncobowsher]

Yep, Randy showed me a stock Explorer balancer and a stock 3-bolt Bronco balancer with his custom pulley. Perfect match.

 

[Bronco_69]

it lives!!!!!!

I put gas in the tank and bled the air out. after that the bronco fired up on the 1st turn of the key!! great

the idle is a little high and i still have to rebuild the column but i will be back on the trail soon

 

[Bronco_69]

here are a few pics. the high idle was fixed with a new throttle body. the 1st one had too large of a hole drilled into it.

here are some of the mods to make this happen.

internal pump in a stock style tank
1994 bronco OEM fuel lines, filter, regulator, fuel pump, and fuel rails.

Looking good. What harness did u use? I'm still gathering parts for my efi swap

 

[Bronco_69]

i used a stock harness from a 89 mustang. untaped it and routed it the way i wanted. there was LOTS of extra lenght once i did that. i bet i have 3.5' of wire in the cab.

today i finished up the brakes, mounted the air box, wired the electric fan, installed a battery hold down, and started the column rebuild.

all i have left to be driving is the lower coulumn bearing bushing!!
