I used the Sims Rocket liner and I thought that it looked awesome until it stated to lift in a couple of spots. I tried to repair the bad spots and it looks like hell. I am in the mix of installing a vinyl floor kit now. Hopefully it will turn out ok.

I am gathering parts to install a 5.0 EFI engine in my bronco. I am running a Dakota Digital dash that I really like. The Dakota dash uses a special speed sender that connects into the transfer case where the stock sender goes. What am I up against in order to get a speed signal to the EFI and...

My 70 sport does not have the holes under the mounts but my 73 did. I am not sure why they are there. If the nut falls into the frame, it is a pain in the neck to get it back out. As for the body bolts with the head cut off. I have had to cut these bolts off before to get the tub from the...

I installed an Art Carr/Winters auto shifter on my C4. Does anyone have a solution for the back up light switch?

Yeah, the trams tunnel gets smokin hot in the summer time heat. I think that I will install a carpet kit and see how it goes. I can take it out if I don't like it. Thanks for all the input.

When I built my bronco I sprayed Simms Rocket liner on the undercarriage and just about everything inside the tub. It has been holding up pretty well but it does not provide any insulation or sound proofing. It cleans up pretty well though. I can use a water hose to rinse out any dust. I am...

Hopefully you find the right combo so that I can copy you!

I may run an add on Craigslist when the time comes to get this thing kicked off. Watch for it in the Farmington parts section.

I am in the same position. There is a huge amount of detail that one must understand before an EFI swap can happen. It would be cool if there was a detailed list of options that would work together to effectively install an EFI set up in a bronco. This forum has a bunch of information on it but...

I will have to see what it is going to cost to overhaul it and what parts are missing. Thanks for all of the input. This is a great forum.

I found a solid 351C for $200 with a C6 auto transmission. It has the 2v heads. Does anyone have opinions on this engine. I think that there is another post about this engine but I cannot find it.

I am going to rebuild the spare tire carrier with a new latching system this weekend if I can find the parts. I completed a compression test and oil pressure test just for fun. I ordered a body lift and tail gate anti rattle kit.

I would add, make sure the c-bushings are installed correctly. The kit instructions should have it lined out. Clean all the bolt threads before going back together. I used some tall metal saw horses to hold up the bronco on the front and read frame. Sometimes the radius arm cap bolts are beyond...

Yeah, needabronco and I are friends. We have talked about this for awhile now. Hopefully we can get something going.

Thanks for the information and quick response.

I have found that a 1/4" bead of silicone on the front and back runners works better than a gasket. I normally do not use and silicone on the gaskets.

I have been thinking about hosting a meet and greet in the Farmington, NM area when it warms up some. Any bronco and or enthusiast would be welcome. I have not ever done anything like this before so I am looking for some advice on how to kick it off. If you are in the four corners area, let me...

I have a quick question. I am running the Dakota digital dash in my bronco. This system uses the oil pressure port and the main coolant temp port for the digital gauges. Any ideas on how to make the EFI system and digital gauges work? Great post too. Thanks for the information.

Hey Casey, I don't think I need a new engine yet but is one ever really done with their bronco? I am not all that happy with the HP that I have now either. I think it should be stronger than what it has with the money I have in it. We shall see.

Thanks everyone for the info. Is the Ford Expedition a good candidate for a 351w. I have some part searching to do. I will post what I come up with.
