It's been a while since I've had a chance to do anything, but I finally got the BII painted. I went with Ford 1G silver metallic. Here are some pictures.
I have an 85 bronco II that I want to lift with f150 spacers and I want to get the adjustable camber bushings to bring it back into alignment. What is the part number of the correct adjustable camber bushings that I will need, and where is the best place to get them?
The pusher fan I am using is a Procomp 16"..it's a cheapie... but this thing works well.. not quite as well as the taurus fan on my mustang but for the price it was a good solution to my BII experiment/swap
mine seems to heat up the most at idle.. I notice a drop in temp when I am cruising. I just have the transmission lines running to the radiator (which i'm not sure if that is better or not?) I thought about getting a trans cooler but like u mentioned it would seem like an obstruction to the...
Yes there are several factors that will vary from swap to swap..
I am running a 302 out of a 90 mustang GT and using a stock 94 explorer radiator (1 core) and it cools it just fine. I have had it out in 90 degree temps no issues.
However, the only reason I decided to run the 1 core is...
Well Finally got the exhaust done and all the little bugs worked out of it so that it can be reliable and road worthy..
I ended up keeping the stock single core radiator from a 92 explorer. This is a very small radiator, a direct fit, and when used with a pusher fan. ( i used a procomp...
It runs! :icon_hornsup: I've got it to the point where I fired it up... and got oil pressure...didnt let it run long at all because the radiator along with other small things need hooked up.
My main concern is what should I do for a radiator and fan? I have looked around and it seems like...
if you look at my build.. "in like a lamb out like a lion" you should see my 85 BII and alot of pics of what to do (i plan to post more soon). there are also many posts out there if you search on a particular part you may have a question about.
after doing it i can say the main obstacles I...
Update... got the fuel lines ran, and truck avenger 470 carb. just waiting for a few parts in the mail and the rest is down hill.
In the meantime I will have to find a power steering and associated brackets for the belt setup. I would like to do this on a budget. any suggestions for donor...
Refreshed the trans and installed the JW 157 tooth bellhousing.. the engine got the 157 tooth flexplate from summit racing with 50 oz imbalance
still a good ways from running but having it in the BII provides a burst of motivation :icon_cheers:
Thanks.. the floor boards were not something I really wanted to deal with at first, but it was actually kind of fun to do.
As for the black coating - I put POR15 on the seams and places subject to future rust, then I top coated it with a flat black 500 degree temp paint... I figured it may...
Cool.. I will find out how they fit later this week... hopefully. I am currently debating on which route to take for the carb. I have a 2 barrel motorcraft 2100 that needs to be rebuilt which could probably be done fairly easily and cheap.. or I was thinking about going all out and buying a...
Has anyone else used these headers in a 4x4 swap? These are the Advanced adapters headers... the only reason I am going to use them is because I bought them for cheap off of a guy who had planned to do the same swap but backed out.
The engine im using is a spare from my 90 mustang gt... This engine was neglected/abused by the previous owner... lots of sludge and excessive wear.. I had it honed, hot tanked, freeze plugs, cam bearings etc... before installing new rings bearings..... it has a ford explorer cam shaft, E7 heads...
So I've been wokring on prepping my BII for a 302 transplant. It's pretty close to putting the engine in.. here are a few pics of when I first got it and began dealing with rusted floor boards etc... I will post more pics as I get them uploaded to photobucket.
Had to weld a flat piece...
I have a C5 transmission out of a 85 bronco II... I was converting it to a C4/C5 hybrid.. valvebody etc... to use in a V8 swap... I was just curious what the spline count is so that I can get the correct torque converter. Does anyone know the spline count or at least a good way to count it? I...
I plan to swap a 302 into a bronco II made for street driving only very soon... I plan on using a C4 transmission... I know the tallest gears I have available in ranger axles is 3:45... will that be ok for driving on the highway...I am well aware of the upgrades to 8.8 and dana 35 which I will...
