    Shout to to Frenchy!

    I just bought and installed a set of body mounts from Frenchy and I couldn't be happier! The mounts are perfect for giving you a little lift (1/2" to 3/4") without that "body lift look". And Mike is a great guy, he and I have become fast friends through this transaction. If you want a small body...

    T Rex Arms Question

    I am looking at Duff's T Rex Arms. I currently have a 2.5" SL and this is a street only Bronco. I have no intentions of putting it in the mud. So, with that being said, should I get the 7° bushings or the 4° bushings? I know with the 7° it would put the front driveshaft angle too steep but if I...

    Craziest thing you've ever seen when looking at a used Bronco?

    I looked at another Bronco this weekend and saw some interesting things. Like for instance, the owner was driving this Bronco around with no C bushings at all! I can't imagine how this thing handled. He was also running a plastic jug under the hood for a fuel tank since his rear main tank had a...

    Opinions needed

    I have a 76 with a 302, C4, Dana 20, 3.55 gears in the rear, and 32" tires. I just rebuilt my transmission and resealed the Dana 20(no new bearings, just seals) and it does great at low speeds, it shifts from 1 to 2 at about 2500 rpms, shifts from 2 to 3 at about 2500 rpms, but when I am at...

    Oil Leak

    My Bronco is driving me crazy! A little history: my torque converter went out so I decided to fix every leak on the Bronco since I had to take the transmission out. I pulled the transmission and transfer case, rebuilt/resealed them both. While I had them out I wanted to fix engine oil leak at...

    C4 Cooler Lines

    I am getting conflicting results when searching for answers to which cooler line goes in the top fitting in the radiator. I see different users here have said that the pump end (front) line should run to the bottom of the radiator so that it will "burp" the lines by flowing up through the...

    Transfer Case Mounts

    I ordered these transfer case mounts https://shop.broncograveyard.com/Transfer-Case-Mounts-Black/productinfo/13075/ and see that there is a short bushing and a tall bushing for each side. Which bushing goes on top of the cross member, the short one or the tall one? Thanks.

    Transmission cross member issue.

    PO broke three of the bolts off on passenger side of the frame mounted bracket that attaches the crossmember to the frame. It only had one bolt holding it up. I have tried everything I know to remove the broken bolts but I can't get them out. I have soaked them in PB Blaster, I have heated them...

    Unusual Question

    I have this picture that I downloaded a year or two ago and have no information about it and can't remember where I got it but, I really love everything about this Bronco. I would love to know the lift size, tire size, wheel size, and who makes the bumpers as well. Thanks for any help.

    C4 and Adaptor Housing Question

    I have found a great thread started by Bronchole about sealing the Dana 20 located here https://classicbroncos.com/forums/showthread.php?t=207537 My question is about post number 3. In that post Bronchole says "On the C4 version of this adaptor there is an O-ring (included with the interal seal...

    Need some Transmission/Transfer Case advice.

    I am finishing up my 76' C4 rebuild and have discovered a potential issue. When I was disassembling the transmission I noticed that a bolt was missing from the adapter housing connecting it to the transmission. When I started to put the adapter housing back on I saw why. The first 1/4" of...

    C4 Valve Body Issue

    I am re-installing my valve body in my 76 C4 and the down shift lever is hitting the valve body case and I can't get it to where the valve body sits flat in transmission. Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated.

    Another C4 Question

    I just started the rebuild of the valve body in my 76 C4 and when I removed the filter I found that someone in the past had replaced the filter and put the spring back in but left out the throttle pressure limit valve. My question is, what would be the symptoms of this valve being left out and...

    C4 experts, help!

    I am in the middle of rebuilding my C4 and I am going by Viperwolf's parts list. I am to the point of installing the C6 pump bushing and because it is so much wider than the C4 bushing I am not sure how to install it. Any help and/or pictures would be greatly appreciated.

    C4 and Dana 20 question

    I have my C4 and Dana 20 removed from my 76 Bronco and I am ready to start the rebuild of my C4. In the Ford service manual they show pictures of a tool that you can make to help in separating the transmission and transfer case. Do I need to fabricate this tool? What if I don't use it? Do I...

    Should I check the runout on my flexplate when I reinstall it? If so, what are the specs? Thanks.

    Flexplate Torque Specs

    I can't seem to find the correct torque specs for the flexplate to crankshaft bolts, and also should I put some loctite on the threads? BTW, this is for a 76 with a 302 and C4. Thanks.

    Shout out time!

    I just wanted to give a shout out to Brian at James Duff. I called yesterday to order their dual exhaust system and Brian was the friendliest and most helpful of anyone I have ever ordered from. By the time the call was finished it felt as though he and I had been friends for a long time...
