Those lights look great!

I wouldn't mind a set in my Ranger since I disconnected the dome light since I run door less a lot.

i pulled a 1994 ford explorer 4.0 with auto tranny i plan on swapping it into my 1990 bronco II i want to keep my standard tranny, i pulled the wiring harness from engine bay and dash but stupidly was in a huge time crucnh due to moving and dropped the ball on labling the connectors prolly just take some time to figure out what goes where.
Screwed no.
Just be prepared to read wiring diagrams and take your time to lay it out and figure out where all of it goes.

I asked about my Taurus fan setup and got a link to a great setup that Im going to do in the future. Seems simple and cheap enough, I figured I would share it with you.

Probably my favorite thread here on TRS. Great Bronco II and full of useful info.

I found the clear parking lamps but I can't find the clear side markers you have on your truck. Going to keep searching and see if I come up with it.

Here are the lamps if anyone is interested;

You also convinced me to put a 4.0 in my Bronco II when the time comes after my 2.8 quits on me.

Thanks.
I wish I could find another set of the side markers in clear... oh well.
The 4.0 is a great motor, Idk how the swap goes for the 2.8's but it's doable I'm sure.

As it sits, it's an awesome daily driver and mild trail rig. It'll do anything I want it to and more. 4.56 gears, dual lockers makes for an awesome combo :icon_bounceblue:

Lady up the street doesn't drive much. Now I know why. She was backing out and did something. I have no clue what but ended up in the woods, VERY close to the drop off downhill. [br]
[br][br]The picture sucks but the pic was an afterthought. Hooked the tree saver to the car, winched it out. [br][br]It's good to be able to help neighbors.

She must be completely blind.

Neighbor lady is in her late 50's, she takes 15 minutes to back her SUV into her driveway. And most of the time she is in the yard.
