I don't give a f what the "proper name" is. In the Bronco community that pre-dates this one by, oh, 40 years or so, we've always called...

Shifter boot ordered. Thanks!

Wave the flag! 🚩 Single racing-style stripe is pretty common idea if you want to spice up your interior a little 😀 But single color may...

The Early Bronco bikini tops are like that too. You can drive them in the rain and not get soaked. I wish that was available for the 6G...

Yeah those welds look like mine (shitty). Especially next to the factory welds from RK and NVM. But even so, if it was me, I'd just run...

*this is not an entry just a joke from the googles

Man I really miss that atmosphere when it's juxtaposed with this over moderated PC paradise. Then there was the real tech talk and guys...

April 2003 for me!

I just wanted to say wow, Pirate4X4, there's a blast from the past. I don't even recognize that place any more LOL. Checked to see if my...

Totally a fault of the 74Weld design... ;) wrenching is hard... It turns in two directions.

At any rate it doesn't look like the portal or upgright failed, as they simply re-attached it to the UCA and (I'm assuming because they...

I watched it. Looks like installer error. Upper ball joint nut fell off. They got it back together and drove out.

Most of my mechanic friends and independent shops I know are great with the antique systems on Early Broncos, but I don't really know of...

We continued the gear and axle work in episode 28 of Horsin' Around, with swapping the front M190 Front Drive Unit for the M210 we had...

Episode 27 of Horsin' Around had us back in the shop to continue the gear and axle upgrades for Chanel, with this episode focusing on...

We were back in Joshua Tree NP for episode 26 of Horsin' Around, this time to explore Pinkham Canyon.

2x the success on the rack install! @Gene Dios and I were able to get the performance tune, the rack update, and the rack installed on...

Excellent information, thanks for writing it out! I feel vindicated for how hard it was for me just to reinstall the stock rack in mine...

I feel attacked!

BTW have you seen the size of the pinion gear in these things, in person? They're already teeny-tiny. The one for my 5.13's already has...

If I ever go to 40's I'll probably wish I had done 5.38's. But with 37's there's no place I won't be able to go, that I would have been...

I’m under the impression that Quinn takes care of the programming and it is supposed to be plug and play. Is that inaccurate?

It's all in your preference I guess. I don't like 4.70/35s at all, 1st is too tall and requires clutch slip on the slightest hill start...

He does, but he's a friend of mine and he was more interested in doing a quick, "while I wait" turnaround on it for me if I already had...

Yeah I have a HOSS3 rack sitting in a box in my shop, I'm not looking forward to diving back in for the swap LOL. I'm probably going to...

Had they offered a rear locker as a stand-alone option on the Base, I might have sprung for it. And perhaps left it that way LOL.

I just appreciate the poster in the background at 20:35 😉 This is the first install video I’ve seen that talks about those bolts on the...

I’d rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it, as the old adage goes. We’re about six weeks out for swapping all our...

I mean, I'm not gay. I'm a man with a shop, so there's going to be girly posters LOL. Disclaimer, I didn't actually use a Crowfoot...

My gut (and the Grim Jeeper gear calculator) told me different :) 5.13's with 35's comes very close to the final drive ratio the 7MT...

I have not seen that one, I'll have to check it out :)

If you mean Decline of Western Civilization II, yes of course!

More power to her if her appearance brings the clicks. I wish mine did LOL. "Good luck to 'em if they're pretty. I wish I was." --Lemmy...

It occurs to me that this video (and the earlier one where we swapped in the M220 rear) are good enough arguments for opting for...

Yeah we swapped to 37's at the same time. I actually had the 37's on there for about a week prior to doing the diff/gear swap. We did...

The upper mount is a pain on a V6 Bronco, its got this thing called a catalytic converter in the way.

That sounds like even more of a PITA than what we encountered on the 2.3L. For us there's a plastic drip rail thingy you have to un-do...

Hey guys if you're thinking of swapping your Front Drive Unit or just wondering about the work involved in doing it yourself, here's a...

Right. Like I have an extra hour or two to spare in any given week. Maybe create a separate pic contest thread for the retirees that...

I caught that one! I wonder how many others will LOL.

They’re out there accidentally making Rearden Metal

Got a little clarification from Wolfgang Tibus

Another vote for QuadLock. Stays put in the bumps.

You're a man of few words LOL. Did you trim the front crash bar mount too? Any contact with the front or rear fender liners when you...

Care to tell us how it went?

Taking cues from all of those that have already paved this path, I dove in and booger welded a diff drop bracket that drops the front...

Yes, but you're forgiven for not knowing what's going on here - It's difficult to keep up :ROFLMAO:

Are we still on Bronco next to a Harley?

Now wheel it and report back.
