    Repair or Rewire??

    Thanks to all for your input. I am going to go with a new harness and get cozy in the garage for a few days. Now my question is which harness? From everything I have read online I have narrowed it down to Painless or Centech. I plan on keeping the truck mostly stock. I am removing the winch...

    Repair or Rewire??

    I am only 10 miles into my first EB. There are numerous concerns with the wiring to tail-lights, gauges, flashers, radio, winch & off-road lights (which I plan to remove) that I have found already. PO warned me of some of the items and now I'm afraid of what else is hiding in all of that...

    1st gear won't disengage

    Thanks to all. I figured out the issue before reading any of the replies. There seems to be some play in the shift levers. When shifting from 1st to 2nd I need to hold the shift lever to the left (close to my knee) and push up into neutral. If I simply push up, and don't hold it to the left...

    1st gear won't disengage

    Let me start by saying I am truly a Newbie. Virtually no experience working on vehicles. I love the look of the Broncos and I am finally in a position to get one. I took delivery of my first EB 3 weeks ago. Finally got it registered and took my first drive this morning. Bummed to find out...

    https://newjersey.craigslist.org/cto/d/1969-ford-bronco/6458278158.html I drove this one about a month ago while looking for my first EB. At the time the seller wasn't sure he was going to sell. He pulled the listing but then contacted me last week. In the meantime I purchased a '73. I am...

    MI 1976 Restomod

    I've seen that one all over Craigslist. Definitely a scam. I wish I had all of the free time that these scammers have.

    VIN wrong on title

    I am negotiating to purchase a '73 EB from someone out of state. I asked for pics of the VIN plate and the title. The VIN on the title has an extra "L" in it. Plate says U15GLP and title says U15GLLP. This is my first bronco and I don't want to get burned. Everything else about the truck...
