Hey folks, I've been a Bronco owner for a couple of years now, though the relationship has been more tumultuous than I'd like. I'm basically sitting on a deteriorating Bronco that I have no clue how to fix. I was fortunate though to run into a family that pointed in the way of this group. Hoping to maybe trade some s for a little help from time to time in route to getting my Bronco on the road.

Absolutely welcome Grant,

Glad to have you. Post up some pictures, let everyone know what you have and what your plans are. There are plenty here who will jump right in and help get you on the road adn trail. Join us for the breakfast this month (check the staging area for details) and introduce yourself to those who are there.

This is a great group and as a group we are very active both in building and playing with our broncos.

Have fun.

Greg

Some of us may have been in the same boat at one time or another. Good group here though. Tech area has good info and if you can't find something using the search feature feel free to ask.

Welcome and I hope you can get her road worthy!

Welcome!! Glad you found us. We're here to help. As hockeydad said, post the direction you want to go with your rig as that determines the type of advice we can offer.

Thanks guys. Currently I am focusing on cleaning up the passenger area, getting my ducks in a row to cut and patch rusted spots, replace panels, etc... I'm also in the middle of taking off the dash.... is there a trick to disconnecting the choke and throttle cables? I've gotten that bezel piece off several knobs but it doesn't look like all the knobs have it.

Welcome aboard, I think you'll find plenty of help from the members here. Lets see some pics of the Bronco!
Usually you take the entire cable out with the knob, once it is loosened from the dash, youll have to pull it out as a complete cable.

Grant, I'm a newby (to this club) too. I've owned my '69 since '86. I live near DIA and am in the middle of renovating my Bronco and may have parts to help.

Things that are coming off my ΓÇÖ69:
ΓÇó Dana 30 w/4.11 gears, relatively new axle joints, decent drums and new shoes and springs, good track bar
ΓÇó Original 3 speed when I finish the conversion to NP435 (good gears, worn syncroΓÇÖs)
ΓÇó Eventually an ailing 289 when I get all the parts for a ΓÇÖ92 or ΓÇÖ93 EFI 5.0

If you are in need of an engine, search this site for a nice 302 being pulled, I saw a thread yesterday about that. That engine would sidestep a lot of problems.

Things in my junk pile:
ΓÇó Radius arms from a ΓÇÿ74
ΓÇó Sick(!!) 302 block from a ΓÇÖ76 Bronco that has never been cracked, excellent builder
ΓÇó NP435, appears to be in good shape
ΓÇó Lockout hub sets

Any of my pull off stuff is cheap, as in scrap iron prices or less, maybe a or 2.

Welcome! Glad you found the group. You can get just about any question answered here (or on www.classicbroncos.com). Hope to see you at a meet.

Welcome to the club!
