This last weekend, I drove my ‘73 EB with Saginaw pump and 1999 Ford Mustang Cobra hydroboost (Cardone 52-7360) out of its relatively warm 40 deg garage, and parked it outside in 15 deg weather for a few hours. When I returned and put it back in the garage, I heard that familiar groan from the...

I don’t know if this is a common issue or not, but someone, previous owner or factory, had brazed the steering stops on both sides. This wasn’t a problem with smaller tires, but when I went to 33” tires, the inner tires will run into the radius arms when steering is cranked over. After mulling...

I decided to join the wideband revolution and verify my 302's carb tuning with a PE bluetooth kit. About 20 yrs ago I put an offroad kit in the carb and played around with the jets and rods, doing it old school (stopwatch and that seems good/bad). I'm at 1,000 ft altitude. As I recall, this...

I'm toying with the idea of converting my BC Broncos early 24 gal tank to the Holley Atomic 2 EFI when it comes available. I'd also like to keep my Aux Tank functional without running fuel and return lines everywhere and switching to a 6 port electric fuel valve. The 6-port EFV's I've seen...

I’m going to be hauling my Bronco several hundred miles on my flatbed trailer. In the past, before paint and resto, I’d just chain down the axes and call it good. With fancy paint on them, I don’t want to do that now. How ‘bout strapping down to the front and rear D-rings with 10,000# rated...

Anybody happen to know the above? Having a significant leak after replacing the inverted flare fitting with the direct to -6 AN fitting from BC Broncos. Don’t want to over-torque. I’ve noticed a copper washer under some original fittings - should I add one?

Can anybody ID the part number or donor vehicle of this Saginaw I bought from Chuck at BC Bronco in 2012? Their records don’t go back that far. Its SAE, not metric, and the pressure fitting the nut screws into is o-ring. 3/4” pressed-on shaft. Thx!

I just got my doors back on (lots of fun there). New glass, tracks and felt. I read and accomplished my ‘73 Shop Manual procedure (see below), and even followed the TBP YouTube video, making sure my rear track was on the correct side. The new felt has a lot of friction going up, even after...

Tried firing up my 302 today. In pieces for 5 years, the bronco has a new metal fuel line, electric fuel source selector, and engine driven fuel pump. I put in 5 gals of gas into the main tank, and diverted the fuel flow before the inline carb fuel filter into a bucket, as I wanted to clear...

I’m fixin’ to put my vent windows back in the door, and thought it would be a good idea to put the main glass felt strip in first. The original has a cutout on the inner surface a couple inches from the bottom and a curved metal strip riveted on. My new ones, actually been kicking around here...

Does anybody know which bolts are used to secure the liftgate hinge to the hard top? Unfortunately, the pictures I took don’t show the bolts, and I can’t find a listing for those parts. My liftgate parts bag doesn’t have eight large screws or bolts for me to guess what fits. It looks to me that...

I bought a set of James Duff’s Stone Guards a couple years ago, and finally installed them this last week as I’m winding down my frame-off. It’s pretty disappointing to put new fenders on and spend time and money painting them to have them messed up by “outie” dents, the first time you drive...

I need to find a pair of long or deep M10x1.0 ISO Bubble 3/16” Brake Fittings or Nuts that fit a 1999-2000 Mustang 4.6L master cylinder. All I’ve seen online appear to be short or have no applicable illustration. Anyone have a source? Thx!

Anybody know of a good shop I can mail in a 1406 to have overhauled and set up for an EB?

I hooked up and trial fit the front suspension components for the 1st time following the frame-off on my WH 2.5” suspension-lifted ‘73. BCB heim joint tie-rod over and WH adjustable trac bar. Prior to this, same lift with stock tie-rod/pitman arm under gave pretty parallel trac bar and drag...

Anyone have experience passing wires into the door with power windows? I’d used .093 Molex for speaker wires, but that connector is limited to about 10 Amps. I recall someone considering Weather Pack connectors, which are good to 20 Amps, but a 4 lead connector is pretty large, and I’m not...

Working on 1973 engine compartment wiring. Two questions. 1 - as seen below, I had the Duraspark II ignition module mounted on the front of the passenger inner fender. The ignition module wiring from Painless is all coming from the center grommet. I’m thinking of rerouting the wires thru the...

I’m in the process of rewiring my 1973 EB, and thought It’d be useful to have a rear view camera, having gotten spoilt on a couple of newer vehicles. I plan on mounting the camera on a fabbed bracket bolted to the bumper mounted rear spare tire lugs, peeking thru the wheel spokes. I thought of...

Has anybody installed VDO Fuel Level Guages and know how they’re hooked up? I have a pair with markings that don’t appear to match the documentation. “I” appears to be a ground in the install sheet, but this guage has one post marked “GND”, as well. “S” is supposed to be sensor signal, if...
