I need a rear brake line for my Bronco II. The threads that go into the drum are bigger then the threads needed to go into the T-fitting on the differential. I have tried Oreillys, Autozone, Advanced. None of them have brake lines with two different size threads. any ideas?

Building up my Bronco and was curious how many people would want 4" lift with lots of fender trimmer, or 6-8" of lift with little to no trimming. Im talking about a clean trim, not some hacked away job that makes your ride look like crap. In other words, Which do you think makes the ride more...

I have an 89 bronco II that I am currently doing axle swaps on. I am going to have to have driveshafts made. My future plans are for a 302 swap and I was wondering if the stock t-case is built well enough to rely on it or should I make plans to swap? Also, Will I have to make new driveshafts...

Im in the process of swapping leafs into my 89 Bronco. Ive read that you have to take out the leaf pin and swap it around. Why??? The pin head and the nut are the same size. Why dont people just put the nut in the perch hole rather then flipping the pin?

Tomorrow Im going to a salvage yard to pick up a 8.8 from a 91-01 explorer. This is somewhat of a budget build so I plan to take the axle with the best gear ratio(Ill upgrade to disk brakes later if I have to). Hopefully I can find one with 4.10's if not 3.73's will be fine. There are 18...

I was planning on doing axle swaps, then a enginge swap, then a trans swap after it gives out. I want to use my stock trans from my 89 Bronco II 2.9L. Any idea the reliability of these?

Wow, you guys are taking this question way to seriously lmao. I guess, from what im understanding. The 4.0L is easiest swap, has enough power and torque but has crappy transmission options. The 5.0L is obviously more Hp and torque , better transmission options,but is more of a pain to swap in...

Ive been doing a little research on the 4.2L v6 and it sounds awesome. 202hp and 252ft.lbs torque. From what I understand, that to will bolt in just like the 4.0L. This is a good thing for me because there are tons of 99-03 F-150s sitting in local junk yards. Any input?

Are there any 8.8" rears that will fit my 89 Bronco II and just bolt in? Are there any D44 fronts that will pretty much do the same?

I plan on running my stock auto trans until it goes out. It was rebuild about 70k miles ago. I will just wheel in low on the t-case or shift the trans into first and second. When doing the wireing, I will need the 4.0L harness, ECU, Fusebox, and what else? I want it to be as easy as possible...

Im looking to boost power in my head turner trail rig. Its a freshly painted dark blue 89 Bronco II with flawless interior. Its going to have a 8.8" rear and a Dana 44 front both full width running 32-33" tires with just enough suspension lift to fit them. I plan on running 4.10 gears and I want...

What ci is the 4.0L. I know the 5.0L is 302. I think I found a cam for $120.00 for the 4.0L. Im just running through was hp/torque range I will get for the money with each setup.

Right now my Bronco has the 2.9L which has about 140hp and 170ftlbs of torque. The 4.0L has 160hp and 225ftlbs of torque. The 302 has 215hp and 295ftlbs of torque. Its seems like the 4.0L would be the best choice compared to a stock 302. The 4.0L is lighter, lighter on the trans, a bolt in...

I am putting a GM 12 bolt on the rear of my BII but it is 5x5 bolt pattern. a friend of mine gave me his Mustang rotors to help convert it to disk brakes and the rotors are 5x4.5. With the rotors as a template, do you think I should drill out the holes or should I have a machine shop do it?
