    Wheel back spacing/offset for superduty axles

    In the process of adding 2004 superduty axles on my 73 Bronco build. Curious to know what others with this setup are using for wheels? I ordered some beadlocks 17x9. 4.5” backspacing with -12 offset. OEM wheels for a superduty are close to 0 offset. With the axles wider than stock I wasn’t...

    Jeep Gladiator AdvanTEK OEM Axles in a Bronco?

    I had another thread going about a Dana 60 but to keep things simple figured I'd start another thread. Anyone think these AdvanTEK axles would be a good choice for a Bronco if wanted to run 38-40" tires? 66" WMS to WMS Front differential is in the correct location, similar to stock Bronco...

    Superduty Dana 60 Axle Swap

    I have decided to build a Bronco from the ground up with a frame that was given and nothing more. The main purpose will be a trail rig. My plan is to put a 3 link up front and 4 link in the rear, coil-overs, 39-40 ish tall tires. So far I have cleaned the frame of factory brackets. The axles...

    4R70W Explorer Cooler Lines and Exhaust Clearance

    I need to run cooler lines and was curious how the Explorer lines ran? Do they hug the engine then need to be trimmed for the Bronco radiator? I assume the donor vehicle was any Explorer with a 5.0L? I have shortly headers and was really curious about clearing the exhaust right where the...

    Drive Shaft Length

    The 4R70W swap saga continues. One thing after another, so it seems. New driveshaft from Tom's arrived today. The working length of this driveshaft is 25 1/4". My working length is 26". Not counting the collar on the shaft I have less than 2" on spline engagement. The next option (without...

    Dana 20 Shim Pack Leaking

    During my transmission rebuild, I took some time to reseal my D20. After filling the T-case I noticed the shim pack is leaking next morning and I haven't even started the Bronco. Talking about the shim pack on the rear of the T-case. I followed the direction in my shop manual and the shim...

    4R70W Dipstick Options

    I see Lokar has a few options but flashy and expensive. I found the dipstick that came with the donor transmission doesn't clear the exhaust and is too tall. Looking on Amazon didn't return any results. I found this one on Summit. Anyone use it before...

    Winters Sidewinder Shifter and 4R70W

    I have everything installed and the shifter/gears aren't lining up. By that, when the shifter is in neutral I am actually in drive. When I put the shifter into 2nd gear, the transmission is actually in 1st gear. The transmission goes into reverse before the shifter actually gets to reverse? I...

    EFI ISC (BA) Questions

    On my EFI (89 Mustang MA) The idle speed control (bypass air) valve voltage while the engine running should be anywhere from 3 and 11.5 volts to the ISC wire. Mine is at 12.7v at idle and when throttle is applied it drops to 7.7v. It passed the other two test in the book (Probst book) Not...

    BC Bronco 23 Gal tank with intank pump

    I bought this unit and right off the bat noticed how "whinney" is sounds when running. Anyone else have this set up? Can you hear your fuel pump while driving? It works fine but was unsure if this was the norm?

    5.0 EFI Issues

    So here is a long story short. My 72 Bronco with an 89 Mustang MA EFI and C4 is running like crap. New fuel system was installed (tank, pump, filter) I dont think its the fuel to the motor. The engine will start up idle for a second then die. After 3 trys it will stay running but barely. I...
