What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)

[Mitche11]

Saturday, I finished my hydroboost WOW what a difference
Last Night I Finished my Cherokee wiper conversion and Wiper Delay switch
Now I can SEE and STOP

GMan, Did you buy a hydro boost kit, or source one up? IΓÇÖm thinking of upgrading mine because it will go, but it wonΓÇÖt stop...
I may hit you up for a couple pointers...

This followed me home today.

[Kinder]

[Strike2]

Nice! What are your plans for the new ride?

Would like to build a nice uncut driver.

[mickphatmac]

Not sure what IΓÇÖm going to do with only 3 wheels, but I got these today!
15x8.5ΓÇ¥ with 3.5ΓÇ¥ Backspacing. (If IΓÇÖm measuring it right?)
Looking for #4...Anyone?

[ZOSO]

Finally ordered my gears, axles, and rear arb. Now to find time to start the install. Chris I'll have the front 4.10's pulled out for you soon.

Sweet! just need to find a carrier i guess eh?

[mickphatmac]

So I did this today...
I took the old leaf springs that were on the truck when I bought it and disassembled them. Then I took the old original Bronco Leafs that Kirk gave me that were totally spent (like they all are!) and disassemble them as well.

What I came up with is a 10 pack 3.5ΓÇ¥ Lift that IΓÇÖve been panhandling for!

[Kinder]

^ very interesting, youΓÇÖll need to do some measurements once they are on the truck and post up.

[ZOSO]

Another package has showed up. It is matching gearsets. 5.13's here we come. Today should be the rear arb and 31spline axles.

That will be sweet!

[mickphatmac]

Let the Beatings BEGIN!!!!
engine swap
3 speed manual to C4
3 on the tree to Automatic tilt Column Swap
and Add Power Steering with 4x4x2 box

I even sold the manual column, getting ready to ship it!

[mickphatmac]

Got the Front and Rear Driveshafts out along with the skid plate under the Dana 20...
Never seen so much oil and dirt Ever!!!

[ZOSO]

Stacks of parts I need time to install. Not pictured is the passenger seat and seat belt. Along with a window. New jgz door panels and quarter panels.

[mickphatmac]

I removed the exhaust manifolds and exhaust/ muffler
I got the Starter out,
The clutch parts on the engine bay side out,
Then I removed the clutch and brake pedals.

I made the single brake by removing the clutch....reinstalled it, and then I see this on CL!!!

[mickphatmac]

Well, not so much what I did to my bronco today, but what it did to me!!!

[Jesus_man]

You broke it? Or you talking bodily harm?

[mickphatmac]

You broke it? Or you talking bodily harm?

No no...Just showing the difference between the clutch and brake pedal that I converted and the 76 brake pedal made for an automatic that I went and bought. My bronco was screaming for me to do it right and I gave in and bought it!

Literally as soon as I got done making mine, I looked on craigslist and there it was staring in the face, come get me come get me it said!!!

I told you that you were the CL whisperer.

Boost me! Still need to adjust my pedal.

[Jesus_man]

That'll be awesome! I keep thinking I should do this...but so much else needs done.

[Kinder]

I do believe youΓÇÖll need to provide some feedback on that offset bracket after you get a few miles on it.

[ZOSO]

Looks good John. Curious to see what you think of the pedal feel. Mine is real soft with nearly zero feedback.

[D&D72]

Well, I do like the offset. I still have plenty of room for a compressor and maybe a small tool kit. I had to whittle about an inch off the threaded end of the input rod and cut some new threads for it. Rob (Zoso) forewarned me on that. I also had to trim the end for the brake light switch. It was so tight the brake lights were constantly on. But the one thing I donΓÇÖt like is the open hole where the old master cylinder was. IΓÇÖm on the hunt for a boot or bellows to eventually deal with that. Gotta order that rebuild kit for the booster. Got the kiss of death from ChrisΓÇÖs leaking out the weep hole.

[landshark]

IΓÇÖve come to the conclusion everything leaks.

[Jesus_man]

IΓÇÖve come to the conclusion everything leaks.

That is the logic I have adapted as well. When it doesn't leak...then I worry.

[landshark]

IΓÇÖll probably break down and Order the rebuild seal kit, have a few things ahead of it.

[mickphatmac]

I got my automatic tilt column installed today, tomorrow I will uninstall it because of my little screw up, can you guess what I forgot?

(ItΓÇÖs not the wiring...)

[BroncoRaider]

Finally got my ΓÇÿ75 plates linked to mine.
