Part of 1978-1979 Ford Bronco Exploded Parts Diagrams
This document is an exploded parts diagram and installation illustration for a Ford radio antenna assembly, uploaded to a 1978 Ford Bronco's document gallery. The upper-left illustration shows an exploded view of the fender-mounted antenna, identifying the mast (part 18A886), cap (18A927), mounting screw (55962-S36M), base and cable assembly (18898), and gasket (18898). A lower-left illustration shows the antenna cable routing through a grommet (18A908) in the cowl/fender area toward the radio chassis behind the instrument panel. Two right-side views show how the antenna lead-in cable connects to the back of the radio chassis: one labeled "View Showing Connection of AM Radio Antenna Lead-In" (with a callout to "route antenna") and one labeled "View Showing Connection of AM/FM Radio Antenna Lead-In" (with callouts for the antenna lead-in and radio chassis). A reader can learn the component breakdown of the antenna assembly with Ford basic part numbers, where the cable passes through the body via the grommet, and how the lead-in plugs into either an AM or AM/FM radio chassis. The document itself carries no year, model, or engine applicability statements.
