The guy who installed the old dash (I was planning on building a totally new one) jus… 1975 Ford Bronco - The brake pedal is WAAAY to high, so I'm going to rethread its pushrod & adjust its position. One of these days, I have to figure out how t… 1975 Ford Bronco - The cruise module is in the lower L & the RKE is in the upper R. I managed to cross 2 sets of wires when I installed the RKE, so I have to… 1975 Ford Bronco - Those red hoses... They're driving me NUTS!!! I'm putting some split-loom over them in here. 1975 Ford Bronco - This is actually more organized than it looks, and most of the '88 F150 circuits are still there doing exactly what they were designed to d… 1975 Ford Bronco - The big red connector is for the interval wipers (module is at the top). Just to its R, the white plastic tube on the black wire is for the… 1975 Ford Bronco - The Pu/Wh wires are for the e-brake pedal switch (when I figure out how to mount one). The inertia switch is mounted just where it should b… 1975 Ford Bronco - I've made the center dash brace my main ground, but there are other redundant grounds. The big harness going down by the t-case shifters is… 1975 Ford Bronco - The plate for the driver's door switch fits behind the original hole without change. The 2 R wires at the bottom go to the power antenna mo… 1975 Ford Bronco - The '88 truck passenger courtesy light switch is simply screwed into a hole drilled in the door jamb. The switch can be mechanically reset… 1975 Ford Bronco - It's not totally finished, but it's getting close. I forgot to install the glove box, so it's coming off again. 1975 Ford Bronco - This angle doesn't show those %@#*(& red hoses as much, but it does show the gigantic patch in the hump where the t-case shifters are. 1975 Ford Bronco - After the heater core blew out, this is what came out of the radiator. For the reason it happened, read [url=http://www.fourdoorbronco.com/… 1975 Ford Bronco - This was after the 2nd rinse - it smells like a wet ashtray. For the reason it happened, read [url=http://www.fourdoorbronco.com/board/show… 1975 Ford Bronco - We decided that an original badge wasn't appropriate, considering all the modifications, and since we used 2000 Eddie Bauer Expedition colo… 1975 Ford Bronco - The original rubber bushing cracked & fell out while driving, which normally destroys the transmission in a couple of miles. But it happene… 1975 Ford Bronco - This trans only has a few hundred miles on it in the past 6 years, but one of them was with the TV cable disconnected. I hope that's where… 1975 Ford Bronco - Just a current photo on a sunny day. 1975 Ford Bronco - This is a common problem in all pre-'92 EFI F-series & Broncos. These Ford-style relays (BROWN socket = EEC power; GREEN socket = fuel pump… 1975 Ford Bronco - Working on ONE relay at a time, remove the terminals from the stock connector & discard it. I collected these Bosch-style sockets in junkya… 1975 Ford Bronco - Being careful to connect the wires to the proper terminals (using the list below), securely connect the old wires to the terminals of the n… 1975 Ford Bronco - Now the truck will be MUCH more reliable, and can use the cheaper, heavier-duty, more common ISO relays that are easier to swap. Tape up th… 1975 Ford Bronco - There was a rain leak coming off the EEC, so I pulled the vent blockoff to reseal it, and pulled the EEC to seal around its grommet. The EE… 1975 Ford Bronco - I'm getting progressively LESS happy with Jeff's Bronco Graveyard. Not only was the rear tank molded wrong at the sender hole; not only wer… 1975 Ford Bronco - After fighting the fuel system for a few weeks, I realized that the problem was the aftermarket solenoid-style fuel pumps. Because they did… 1975 Ford Bronco - Early Bronco Alternator Wiring (simplified) http://classicbroncos.com/forums/showthread.php?t=176046 SEE THE NEXT FEW PICS & CAPTIONS... If… 1975 Ford Bronco - This is going to replace the crappy '88 2G alternator. The 130A 3G alternators are easily identifiable by the 2 large holes between each pa… 1975 Ford Bronco - The old '88 alternator died, so instead of replacing it, it's getting a 3G conversion. The harness is mostly from the donor T-bird includin… 1975 Ford Bronco - The top bolt eye hits the case. GO TO THE NEXT PIC. 1975 Ford Bronco - The case hits this rib of the bracket, preventing the top bolt from aligning. The scratch is where I plan to cut it. GO TO THE NEXT PIC. 1975 Ford Bronco - A few seconds with the 4 1/2" grinder solves this problem. GO TO THE NEXT PIC. 1975 Ford Bronco - A few more seconds and this will be fixed. GO TO THE NEXT PIC. 1975 Ford Bronco - To solve this, I drilled the alternator boss to 7/16" (~11mm) and tapped it to 1/2"-13 for a slightly larger bolt. It's a good fi… 1975 Ford Bronco - The other guy who worked on it installed an aftermarket antenna switch that couldn't be seen, wasn't intuitive to use, and nearly caught fi… 1975 Ford Bronco - We're not happy with the fuel tank select switch mounting screws or its location, or the A/C control panel mounting, but fixing them would… 1975 Ford Bronco - The passenger floorboard got uncomfortably hot this past summer, making the A/C nearly useless. So in addition to the small stainless shiel… 1975 Ford Bronco - To keep even more heat out, all the exhaust pipes near the body are now wrapped. This stuff smokes & stinks the first few times the engine… 1975 Ford Bronco - To keep even more heat out, all the exhaust pipes near the body are now wrapped.

This stuff smokes & stinks the first few times the engine… 1975 Ford Bronco - The wiring coming up thru the w/s frame is well out of the way, but I forgot to pull a switched power for an overhead console or an electro… 1975 Ford Bronco - The shoulder belts look & work great. One day, I'll build a headliner & install a nicer dome lamp. 1975 Ford Bronco - The rear defroster is now fully wired up, and it doesn't interfere with the liftgate at all. Just in time for Frank to have it removed for… 1975 Ford Bronco - To kill off some of the drone from the Flows, there's about 40 lbs of Dynamat Extreme going in. Eventually, it will cover MOST of the expen… 1975 Ford Bronco - The mat is done up to the front seats, and that might be as far as it goes. No noise will come up thru the seats, and there will be a cente… 1975 Ford Bronco - The camper shell is matted, including around the side windows. The difference in noise is amazing - it almost sounds like the camper is mad… 1975 Ford Bronco - The wiring above the windshield for the dome lamps & rear defroster now runs inside the wiper cover bracket so the headliner can lie flat(t… 1975 Ford Bronco - The headliner is painted & installed. This is an aftermarket one, and its quality leaves something to be desired. It's shipped rolled, and… 1975 Ford Bronco - The rear section fits well. 1975 Ford Bronco - The front section was more difficult to align, especially since the wiper motor is on the wrong type of bracket. Also, our wiring for the d… 1975 Ford Bronco - After reverting to the factory wiper motor bracket (the previous owner installed a soft-top style), the freshly-painted cover fit perfectly… 1975 Ford Bronco - The dome light wiring isn't connected yet, but the wiper cover & visors had to be test-fitted so the headliner could be trimmed around them. 1975 Ford Bronco - The front as of the upload date, including tilt/cruise column, A/C, autodimming compass temperature RV mirror, MagCharger flashlight, velou… 1975 Ford Bronco - Bring the bright - 3 domes & 4 map lights, plus a low cargo light on the L bedwall. There's a layer of DynaMat Xtreme behind that painted r… 1975 Ford Bronco - The back as of today. Next stop - CARPET and tint. The rear seat base is an abomination, which is why it's blocked out. The cargo light cam… 1975 Ford Bronco - Dash Extension Frank didn't want to see the A/C hoses & wiring under the dash, so I slapped this together. It's a piece of Aluminum gutter… 1975 Ford Bronco - The BC Broncos liftgate strut kit, supplied thru BroncoHut. It's straightforward to install, but drilling out the original rivets can be tr… 1975 Ford Bronco - These nerf bars were shipped as bare steel. Some minor welding spatter had to be cleaned, and drain holes were added before chrome-look pow… 1975 Ford Bronco - Oh my sore thumbs... 1975 Ford Bronco - Oh my sore thumbs... 1975 Ford Bronco - Oh my sore thumbs... 1975 Ford Bronco - Oh my sore thumbs... 1975 Ford Bronco - The coil is still on the '88 truck bracket, but the bracket has been bent to fit here. 1975 Ford Bronco - The original has been leaking slightly for a few months, and it blew out the same day this arrived. This one's ports are reversed for EFI s… 1975 Ford Bronco - I put a light coat of flat black on the front face of everything so it wouldn't be so noticeable thru the grille. 1975 Ford Bronco - The engine bay, sans radiator/condenser/trans cooler. I still haven't figured out why the guy in BR removed the smog pump - it fit & worked. 1975 Ford Bronco - The new coolant & wiper reservoirs, and the back of the condenser with the new ATF cooler installed. The fan has to move back to make room… 1975 Ford Bronco - Even after a little filing to remove the burrs from the corners of the blocks, the original mounts still won't go down on them, and the tan… 1975 Ford Bronco - After a lot of searching, I learned that the best hoses for this combination are for an '89 Mustang GT. But because of the body lift, I had… 1975 Ford Bronco - There's NO extra room. I even had to remove part of the fan spacer to get THIS much clearance. But even without a shroud, it'll suck a Priu… 1975 Ford Bronco - The rear brakes were sticky, so we replaced everything except the slaves, e-brake levers, & equalizer bars. Oddly, this spring kit included… 1975 Ford Bronco - The trans dipstick O-rings were leaking, so they've been replaced. It was surprisingly difficult because of the dual exhaust. 1975 Ford Bronco - I ordered some black vinyl & made wheelwell liners to hide the body, and to reduce noise & rust from rocks thrown by the tires. They're VER… 1975 Ford Bronco - The hood got the same treatement as the liftgate. [url=http://www.supermotors.net/registry/media/768115] http://www.supermotors.net/getfile…
