  2. Dorman VS Icon tie rod photos!

    Here we go! We will start with the outers. Overall the Dorman is much thicker and does require some assembly and comes dry(I will use Moly). The Dorman comes with a drilled stud for use with castle and a cotter pin. I have mixed feelings on castle nuts, for a max strength item I want more...

  4. FORM Projector Headlight Review (Diode Dynamics)

    Forms picture thread is here! Specs and other crap that usually sell products but really don't tell you if they are a good buy. I have installed all sorts of aftermarket headlights over the last 20 years and have really come to the conclusion they are a waste of money. I am a big on modifying...
  5. M190 to M210 swap Pro Cal programming let down

    Well if you plan to swap to a M210 front differential be aware you will have to come to a damn near stop to go into 4Hi. This is a huge let down as you no longer can be driving along and go oh I need 4wd. This has me rethinking adding back in my front disconnect so I can hit 4hi when I need...
  6. ARB Slider install notes

    Overall I am not super impressed, money wise I paid $300 to I am keeping them. They stick out and are not a step, really bad design for safety. Step on them and land on your ass, I tested them... I plan to weld some steel on to make real steps and bought these as a base to modify. The other...

  8. Front Unit Bearings Safe to run without a CV?

    So this week the trail discussion was about running without the cv-shaft installed. After some back and forth we ultimately decided to run with a stub shaft. As we where looking at 1000+ mile drive home it was kind of not worth the risk. The unit bearing looks like a solid center with no seams...
  9. Blown M190 on Hells Gate <-Video proof

    So I was 2 footing it coming off the brake and onto the throttle. Then bang, some intense steering and both feet on the brakes(grew up driving a 63 Studebaker so it's a natural panic move). Listen to the noise as I was in drive and it sounded like I went into park. Not sure what is actually...

  12. Tie rod Photos Stock, Ford Performance and Icon

    Well here they are! Facts the narrowest cross section on the icons is the same as Ford performance at 12mm. Same size ball socket on the outside. I was under the impression these things where atomic strength! Definitely beefer on the outer. I would be installing these today but I snap my...
  13. Tweaked my Hoss 3.0 steering setup

    Since I am big on sharing my own problems I need to come clean. I have some excess play in the steering from wheeling this weekend. Initially it sounded like a loose strut/metal on metal when turning the steering wheel and driving. This went on for a hour? Had noticeable visual play on the...
  14. Front differential discussion

    Updates Post 31 CV Axle photos I guess this is the next step in my journey into Bronco failure points. This is something I have been digging into since my CV Axle failure. I am thinking the front end weakness for the bronco is how power gets transmitted from the cv through the intermediate...

  19. 74Weld Steering upgrades- Bushings and Housing!

    So 74Weld has rolled out some new parts. After a quick phone call I got a billet passenger side housing and driver side bushing. Both have oil impregnated bronze bushing as the wear surface. 74Weld chose a few different design changes that really makes these more of a long term solution. Also...
  20. Modified steering op-ed & discussion: know the risks when you modify steering / tie rods

    I keep seeing people post about steering upgrades, lets talk about what you are risking. Factory tie rods are the big item everyone talks about as being the week link. We have seen mostly two kinds of failures, bent at the adjuster or snapped at the adjuster. The snapped failure is...
