  • My Bronco Stable.

    I'm new to the NorCal Bronco boards. My '66 is pretty much done. It's creditalbles include a Dana 44 up front with an ox locker, yukon axles, Thunderbird disc brakes. Under the hood sits a .040 over 351 Windsor that's feed by throttle body fuel injection, Saginaw power steering pump moving rock ram steering assist and F150 steering gear box. Manual dual chamber master cylinder stops without any assist (and it doesn't need it). The trans is an AOD with supercoupe first and second gear ratios. The t-case(S) are a 203/205 combo. Rear differential is a 5.13 detroit locked tru hi 9" with 35 spline axles in a big bearing housing. Stock rear drums. The suspension is a 5.5" lift with a one inch body lift. Inside two radios are CB and Ham radio (KI6CYF). Flip and fold rear seat from a Heep. The rig originally was a Half cab but is now a roadster with a soft top and soft doors. Only things left to do are the Centec wiring harness and electric wiper/w/delay switch. 35" BFG MTRs keep it outta the mud (most of the time).
    I just started a conversion on my '81 FSB. Today I installed a Saginaw pump. Stuff laying around in the garage include a SAS, AOD, 203 (Dodge) that'll help the NP 235 (I had to rebuild it just after I got it). Fuel injection for the stock 351 Windsor (stock is soooooo sickly). It currently has 33" ATs but after I install the 5" lift it'll get 35s. It's air conditioned with power steering and brakes. Wife has her eye on it. so it'll need to be tough too.
    Was this what was ment when you said to share your Bronco projects? If not just don't read any farther. I'm looking forward to bringing the '66 up for the Rubicon run in June. By the way do we bring trailers? I have a 1/4 ton military trailer running 35" Bronco tires and rims.

          Re: My Bronco Stable.

          Welcome aboard Bart! Your 66 sounds nice, can't wait to see pictures!
          As for your question about towing a trailer on the 'con.. I'm not aware of anybody in this group who does tow on the trail, but don't let that stop you (but a lot of these guys tow their Broncos to the trail). I am usually one to pack way too much junk in my rig, and a trailer will probably give me a bunch of bad ideas...

                    I pulled Merlins trailer out last year when he broke a rear drive shaft. Pulled easy, and like Rick said, didn't really notice it back there.

                            at the bottom of the thread click the "go advanced" button and a box comes up with additional options. In that box is a button that says "manage attachments".

                            Use that to find pictures on your computer and click "upload"

                              Well, I have a blessing and curse, called a wife. She LOVES to off road, but needs to take "stuff" with her. That's why there'll be a trailer involved. Think my little off road trailer is bad, we bought a 40+ fifth wheel complete with garage section so Bronco can go and wife doesn't have to smell petro. Thank GOD that Ford made a 7.3 litre (444 c.i.) diesel to tow that monster. We're going to the Stampede in Arizona in the next couple weeks. April ????? maybe Moab and then June is Rubicon. Finally, I've owned Bronco off roaders since 2001 and haven't been there yet. Last November we did the Mojave trail and the rigs have never been the same. That's a camp fire story. Speaking of camp fires what is the status of camp fires on the ruby?
                              I'll need some help posting pictures of Bronk (s) with anyone can assist.
