Dude your truck is so lame, really you are still trying to pimp this poor thread. Ya we all know that you have a shitty bII that couldn't wheel out of a paperbag. So why don't you not post again till you actully do something legit like a v8 swap sas or a build like punishers build. 
J/K dude I'm just F ing with you like always the truck is looking damn nice and glad to see the thread being updated again. :icon_thumby:

cool lookin bronco
Thanks fella's!
Hopefully, it is done for now. I might put in some Explorer leather seats and a shorty console.
I am going to basic (Army) in a 2 months and getting married in 4 weeks, so other things are top priority now.

One day i'll get an 8.8 in my BII, but the 7.5 just won't die!
I'm a little confused on whats going on with the brake line.......
And you didn't break your cross pin bolt! You lucky bastard.

What are you confused about it? With the calipers they have to have soft lines so the caliper can move.
I am good like that fool

Where does the hard line connect? :icon_confused:
And I aint no fool, fool.
The hard lines connect in the center just like your 7.5 does (along with the Ranger 8.8 and the Gen 1 Explorer 8.8). If you use 2 passenger side soft lines, you can leave it that way. You will have to re-do the lines on the axle so they are shorter thought.Where does the hard line connect? :icon_confused:

The stock '95-'01 Explorer line from the frame came down on the driver side and then y'd off to go over to the passenger side via hard line until it got to the passenger side soft line.

How did your non ABS truck take to your ABS axle? I have heard conflicting reports about how the explorer disc brakes work with vehicles that don't have ABS.

The issues I were told of was that the non ABS master cylinder didn't put out enough fluid for the calipers or something like that, and that the ABS master put out more and used a valve to actually tune it to the right amount of pressure.
It sounds kind of hoaky to me, with only RABS for the early 90's trucks the master shouldn't care too much about front to rear proportioning anyway IMO.
I used a master cylinder off a '90 BII. The '90 BII's had RABS. Mine works fine.
I had to adjust my plunger on the brake pedal going into the master cylinder to firm up the brake pedal.

Yeah I've done several 7.5s and 8.8s and never broke one eitherI've never had one break on me either.
The only problem I have ever had getting the cross pin bolt out was the bolt being rounded prior to me trying to get it off.Yeah I've done several 7.5s and 8.8s and never broke one either
