I need the lift at the lower end for foot well space. The hood hinges look like a cool option and I have found a pair on eBay for cheap, like $25. Duane

Hi! I am in the same position. I am converting an Early Bronco roof to pop open (ala Westfalia) and looking for a scissor style hinge too that is affordable. Do you have pics of this with the Camaro hinge? Duane

Thanks Laker! Duane

I have to drive her through the car wash because they are afraid to drive it. And no valet either... :Wow1: Duane

What??! You mean 2nd & 3rd don't make 5th! LOL! LOL! Yeah, she is pretty loose and that will be on the list this summer! Duane

Thanks! I promise there will be NO cutting. We searched high and low for an original, unmodified uncut EB. Shes staying the way she is except for the aforementioned upgrades. Duane

Correct, axles are 3:50. She does cruise comfortably at 70, if my memory serves I think RPM's are around 2,500? Hmm, mental note to pay attention next hwy drive. Duane

Thanks Todd, Oddly I was a Jeep owner when I bought the Bronc. A 2009 Wrangler X 4 door 6 speed. With regards to the 3 spd vs the 6, here is how the ratios match up: Bronco I 2.99 II 1.46...

Tom, Yes all stock right to the 3spd on the column. As for the power steering, at this point, with the 30" skinnies I have not felt the need as a DD. Off road I have idea. So maybe it will be on the wish list. Duane

Thanks Steve. I will research the MB. The current trend appears to be the 4bt Cummins, but its so big. 750lbs I believe. Thanks for the advice on the LS rebuild. I had not thought about setting loads. Hmmmm... This is why I came here! In just a few hours so many replies! Thanks! Duane

Thanks! And thanks for the link too. The off-roading I "anticipate" are back country trails, 3rd world country roads. Routes needed for totally primitive camping. Not looking to do crazy stuff. Duane

Thanks Tom, That's a good point on the clearance. I was thinking of transfer and aux tank skids. Currently my rig weighs about 3,400lbs. That was from a recycle's scale in IL before we moved. Yeah the D44 would likely be a better option. Duane

Awesome reply 4x4Junkie! Thanks for the veh compliment. The rack, side ladder and 3rd tank have all been installed for all of the gals 46 years. I am in pretty close contact with here second owner who new the original owner, he bought her from back in the 90's. I know the Scoobies are using...

Jibs, What kind of tires are those? Duane

Hi all! My name is Duane and I live in Denver, CO. My wife and I own a very original, very clean early Bronco. Have had it two years and have made some of the necessary repairs that you'd expect to have to make to a 46 year old veh. Now things are dependable. I want to start a build plan. Goal...
